truck showed alert of decreased power twice withing a month. When taken into Ford they sated the fuel pressure pump and fuel rail were damaged due to pump sending metal shaving throughout the fuel system. I have found out through research that this is a common occurrence due to a faulty pump that was originally installed in the trucks around these dates. No recall or alert has been given to owner buying these vehicles and now requires a very expensive repair to correct (with a whole different type of pump) and avoid future issues.
Truck refuses to regen. Find a service bulletin for known MAF problems on the 6.7 engines. This issues cause truck to go into limp mode and can shut truck off with little to no notice. Leaving people stuck possibly in the middle of the road. Cost over $1100 to fix. How is there no recall or even warning to owners that this may be an issue? Just a technical service bulletin for service departments at Ford-??.
Fuel filter and is available for inspection-Driving back to Cohoes NY from Gloucester Ma pulled into Charlton Ma rest stop to use the restrooms, while getting ready to leave started vehicle and got out waiting for passengers noticed fluids leaking from engine compartment, while inspecting found it was diesel fuel and spraying out of fuel filter on top of engine block. Then noticed a trail of diesel fuel from my path going into rest stop. I parked next to the fuel pumps if that had ignited my life, my passenger and the people in the rest stop life would-??ve been endangered. Luckily I caught it before anything happened. I was able to reach a local ford dealer for parts and Uber to and from and repaired. Pouring water over engine to dilute remaining fuel over engine. No warning or engine light came on warning of loss of fuel pressure.
Fuel Filter Failed and Is available for inspection: Driving back from Gloucester Ma to Cohoes NY, pulled into Charlton Ma rest stop on I90 parking in truck area fueling lot noticed fluids leaking from engine compartment, upon further inspection found fuel filter spraying diesel fuel all over engine compartment and components. My life, my passengers and surrounding personnel may have been injured or killed if went un noticed for too long while parking next to fuel pumps when engine was running or driving along I 90. There were no warning lights indicating loss of fuel pressure or any sort of engine light on. Luckily I noticed it before it could get out of hand and happened during a week day during business hours a local ford dealer, IDA Ford in Auburn Ma had a fuel filter kit in stock: They also stated they just had another customer a few days earlier with the same issue. Had to Uber to and from dealer to get parts to repair. Poured water on engine to break down diesel fuel over engine to drive back to NY and not cause a fire. Looking online for a recall and don-??t see my year of vehicle but just 2021"??"
Filled the tank before arriving home, parked on incline nose down. Not very steep. A few hours later there was a puddle of diesel on the driveway and after inspection it seemed it was leaking from the top of tank. I have no other vehicle and this one cost too much to be doing this at 60000 miles. It is dangerous to drive for fire risk but I have no choice. In 55 years I have never had a fuel tank leak on any vehicle. Looking online there have been many instances under the same conditions. There is no condition that a fuel tank should leak.
