Turbo went out. Repaired at my cost at Ford garage. Given a warranty for 2 years and went out again. Ford would not honor warranty. Paid $5075.32 and have blown turbos 2 more times with only 64.000 miles on truck.

F-250 XLT 6.4L Turbo Diesel

  • Automatic transmission
  • 84,581 miles

I am upset that the ford dealer said he could not tell me why the truck engine blew up, he said these trucks normally last longer than that, and the cost would start at 14,000 dollars, I have always been a ford fan, after this not so much. Please renew my faith in your product. This is a financial burden I can not handle right now, I just started a new business and my truck is a Vidal role to my success, I beg of you to help me.

Thanks for listening to my complaint.

P.S. HELP!

F-250 Superduty 5.4L

  • Automatic transmission
  • 61,600 miles

I bought a 2008 F-250, I have bought 8 in the last 11 years sometimes 2 at a time for bussines.At 61.600 miles the engine blew, they say from bad oil. Never the less they would not help at all, we wrote and they responded.They told us to contact any costomer service rep. and they would help. Bull crap, they do nothing but say there sorry.I never asked for a free motor but always said I was willing to split cost. Well I payed for the engine myself and now after 1000 miles the tranmission has problems ( some valve) along with that my airbag sensor rusted off, my heat shied rusted offand my brake sensor doesn't work (new master cylinder)For a $ 40.000 truck this is Bullshit and they are not willing to do anything, .Less than 1.000 miles over warrenty
