2007 Ford F-550 Sd

IT STARTED RUNNING REALLY SLUGGISH. WOULDN'T GO UP HILLS, BOGGING DOWN, ETC. SECOND TIME THAT THE DEALER TOLD ME THAT THEIR IS FLAKING IN THE FUEL TANK. NEED TO REPLACE THE TANK BECAUSE FORD TELLS ME THAT THE DIESEL GAS IS CAUSING THE FLAKING IN THE TANK. THIS HAPPEN BEFORE JUST AFTER 3 YEARS AND AT A COST OF $3.000. NOW THE SAME THING, ONLY FORDS SEEM TO HAVE THIS PROBLEM WITH THE FLAKING AND THEY WILL DO NOTHING ABOUT IT. ALL OVER THE INTERNET OTHERS WITH 2005-2007 FORD DIESELS ARE HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM. I LIVE IN NEW YORK AND PROBLEMS ARE HAVING ALL OVER THE US. IN 2 1/2 YEARS SHOULD NOT HAVE A PROBLEM WITH THE GAS TANK AGAIN. FORD NEEDS TO STEP UP AND SAY THAT THEIR IS A PROBLEM WITH THIS AND COVER IT! *TR

I OWN A 2007 FORD F550 DIESEL TRUCK. THE TRUCK SUDDENLY LOST POWER AND WAS ON THE VERGE OF STALLING. THE TRUCK WAS DRIVEN BACK AT LESS THAN 40 MPH ON THE INTERSTATE. AFTER TAKING IT TO THE DEALERSHIP THEY DISCOVERED THAT THE FUEL TANK WAS DELAMINATING. FORD IS NOT COVING THE TANK UNDER WARRANTY STATING THAT IT IS WAS CAUSED BY THE CHANGES IN THE EPA FUEL REQUIREMENTS IN 2009. THIS PROBLEM HAS ALSO CAUSED THE FUEL PUMP AND 2 INJECTORS TO FAIL ALSO. THE REPAIRS ARE OVER $2,600. AFTER LOOKING ONLINE, IT APPEARS THAT THIS IS A MAJOR PROBLEM WITH FORD TRUCKS. IT MAKES FOR A VERY UNSAFE SITUATION CONSIDERING MOST OF THESE TRUCKS ARE USED FOR TOWING, HAULING, AMBULANCES, FIRETRUCKS, ETC. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 FORD F550. WHILE DRIVING AT SPEEDS OF 30 MPH, THE VEHICLE BEGAN TO DECREASE IN SPEED WITHOUT WARRANT AND THEN STALLED.

VEHICLE STOPPED WORKING. THE CULPRIT WAS THE FORD FUEL TANK THAT HAD DELAMINATED. THE TANK HAD TO BE REPLACED. THE COST: $1600.00. ADDITIONALLY, THERE WAS A LOSS OF REVENUE AS THIS VEHICLE IS USED FOR PRODUCTION PURPOSES. FORD DENIED RESPONSIBILITY FOR ANY DEFECTS OF THEIR FUEL TANKS. WITH NO OTHER CHOICE, WE HAD TO PAY FOR THE REPAIRS OUT OF POCKET. THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE, AS THESE VEHICLES ARE USED FOR COMMERCIAL USAGE DAILY. THIS IS ALSO A FINANCIAL BURDEN THAT HAS BEEN FORCED ONTO US UNFAIRLY. THEY NEED TO TAKE RESPONSIBILITY AND RECALL THESE FUEL TANKS. *TR

THE DIESEL FUEL TANK HAD CORRODING AND SHOWING RUST ON THE INSIDE OF THE TANK. SEEMS LIKE A DELAMINATION PROBLEM. THE TRUCK IS STILL WITHIN THE WARRANTY PERIOD BUT FORD REFUSES TO COVER THE PROBLEM BECAUSE THEY DO NOT CONSIDER IT A MANUFACTURER'S DEFECT. THEY BLAME THE DIESEL FUEL COMPANIES. FORD SAID THE TANKS WERE MANUFACTURED FOR THE DIESEL FUEL SPECIFICATIONS AT THAT TIME, NOT NOW. THE DELAMINATED MATERIAL IS THE LINING OF THE FUEL TANK. THIS ALSO COST TWO FUEL INJECTORS TO FAIL. THE TRUCK STALLED AND WOULD NOT RUN OR START. HAD TO CALL THE FORD DEALER TO TOW MY TRUCK TO THEIR SITE. HAD TO REPLACE THE FUEL TANK AND TWO INJECTORS AT A COST OF $3,000. THIS PROBLEM IS NOT HAPPENING TO A GMC, CHEVY. OR DODGE DIESEL TRUCK. *TR
