I PURCHASED THIS TRUCK 3 MONTHS AGO, AND EXACTLY FOUR DAYS FROM THE PURCHASE DATE THE TRUCK HAS BEEN MALFUNCTIONING, I BOUGHT A WARRANTY FROM DEALER, BUT WHEN I TOOK THE TRUCK IN FOR SERVICE TO FIND OUT WHAT WAS HAPPENING I WAS TOLD IT WAS NOTHING AND THEY TOOK THE ENGINE LIGHT THAT WAS ON OFF. A COUPLE OF WEEKS LATER THE TRUCK STARTED HESITATING SO I TOOK IT IN FOR A SERVICE AND OIL CHANGE AND HAD THE FUEL FILTER CHANGED TO SEE IF THAT WAS THE ISSUE, IT ONLY HELP FOR A SHORT PERIOD, WHEN I WAS TRAVELING IN ALABAMA, THE HOSE BLEW OFF AND BLACK SMOKE CAN OUT THE BACK AND I BARELY WAS ABLE TO CONTROL THE VEHICLE, SEVERAL MECHANICS LOOKED AT IT AND NO ONE COULD FIGURE OUT WHAT WAS GOING ON…

FRONT OIL COVER LEAKAGE. THERE ARE FOUR TRUCKS WITH THE SAME PROBLEM AT THE DEALER. THE FRONT COVER BOLT LOOSEN THEMSELVES AND CAUSES A SMALL OIL LEAK THAT COVERS THE FRONT AND BOTTOM OF THE ENGINE. THIS LEADS TO MULTIPLE PARTS BEING REPLACE THAT DO NOT NEED REPLACED. AFTER CLEANING THE ENGINE AND FINDING THE LEAK, IT IS TIGHTENING FOUR BOLTS THAT ONLY THREE CAN BE TIGHTENED BY SIGHT. THE FOURTH BOLT COST $4000 TO TIGHTEN. THIS SEEMS TO BE A KNOWN F250 ISSUE.

I EXPERIENCED DEATH WOBBLE AT 70 MPH GOING OVER A BRIDGE EXPANSION JOINT. HAD TO HOLD THE WHEEL WITH BOTH HANDS AND GET DOWN TO 25 MPH BEFORE I COULD REGAIN CONTROL. MY 2014 HAS 75,500 MILES. JUST ORDERED NEW TIRES AND GOT EXACT REPLACEMENTS AS I DON'T WANT TO GIVE FORD AN EXCUSE. THIS IS MY 12TH FORD AND NOW HAVE A VEHICLE MY FAMILY IS NOT ALLOWED IN FOR $45K. I HAVE HAD MANY STEERING AND SUSPENSION PARTS WEAR OUT AND GET LOOSE IN OTHER FORDS, BUT NEVER HAS ANY WEAR FORCED MY OFF THE ROAD AND NOT ALLOW MY FAMILY IN THE VEHICLE. IF FORD DOESN'T FIX THIS PROBLEM I WILL HAVE A NEW GMC IN A COUPLE WEEKS. I HAVE CALLS OUT TO THE OWNER OF MY LOCAL DEALER, BUT NO RESPONSE YE

FRONT SUSPENSION DEATH WOBBLE. I WAS DRIVING 70 MPH HIT A SMALL SERIES OF BUMPS ON THE HIGHWAY THE TRUCK STARTED TO SHAKE SO BAD I COULD NOT KEEP IT IN MY LANE. I ENDED UP CROSSING TWO LANES OF I-70 AND INTO THE MEDIAN BEFORE I COULD GET THE TRUCK BACK UNDER CONTROL. TRUCK WAS NOT DAMAGED BUT THIS IS A SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUE WITH THIS TRUCK THAT NEEDS TO BE ADDRESSED BEFORE SOMEONE IS ACTUALLY KILLED. I WILL NOT DRIVE THIS TRUCK UNTIL THIS GETS FIXED BUT ITS SOMETHING THAT FORD NEEDS TO COVER AND ADDRESS

2014 FORD F-250 6.7L LARIAT SUPER DUTY - 73,000 MILES I PURCHASED IT ABOUT 55,000 MILES. 100% STOCK, NO LIFT OR ANYTHING LIKE THAT. IT STARTED A SHIMMER IN THE FRONT END OF THE VEHICLE WHEN GOING OVER SMALL BUMPS IN THE ROAD GOING OVER 55MPH. I NOW GET A TREMENDOUS SHAKE, IE PROBABLY THE "DEATH WOBBLE" AND HAVE TO SLOW DOWN TO 20MPH FOR IT TO STOP SHAKING BEFORE IT TAKES ME OFF THE ROAD. I LOSE FULL CONTROL UNTIL IT STOPS. I ROTATE MY TIRES WITH EACH OIL CHANGE AND ALWAYS MAKE SURE IT IS PROPERLY ALIGNED. ONCE IT HAPPENED WHEN HAULING MY 40FT 5TH WHEEL BUT LUCKILY I HAD A QUIET INTERSTATE AND WAS ABLE TO HOLD ON FOR DEAR LIFE UNTIL I GOT IT ALL SLOWED DOWN, THIS HAPPENED GOING 65MPH DRIVING…

I BOUGHT THIS VEHICLE IN DEC. 2017 WITH 17,000 MILES ON IT, AND IT NOW HAS 30,000 MILES ON IT. ON FEB 11,12 WHILE DRIVING IN AKRON OHIO AT AROUND 65 MPH I HIT A BUMP AND THE FRONT END STARTED SHAKING SO FIERCELY I COULD HARDLY CONTROL THE TRUCK. MY WIFE WAS WITH ME AND WAS TERRIFIED. IF SHE WAS DRIVING IT SHE WOULD HAVE NEVER BEEN ABLE TO CONTROL IT AND WOULD PROBABLY BEEN INVOLVED IN A HORRIBLE AND MOST LIKELY A FATAL ACCIDENT. MY PROBLEM IS THAT I'M FINDING OUT THAT THIS HAS BEEN A PROBLEM FOR A WHILE NOW AND FORD ISN'T DOING ANYTHING ABOUT OR AS MY DEALERSHIP SERVICE DEPARTMENT SAID WHEN I DROPPED IT OF THIS MORNING, DOESN'T THINK IT'S A SAFETY ISSUE. THIS TRUCK HAS DONE THIS NUMEROUS…

I HAVE A 2014 F250 AND I WAS DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY WHEN THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON AT 106K, WHEN I HAD IT CHECKED IT WAS READING CODE P20BA. I KNOW THERE IS A RECALL FOR THIS CODE FOR THE DEF HEATER REDUNDANT ON YEARS BEFORE AND AFTER...WHEN WILL THERE BE A RECALL FOR THIS YEAR AS WELL. I HAD TO HAVE IT REPLACED AT THE DEALERSHIP.
