I thought it was the fuel filters but it done the same after I changed them. I took it to a garage and he said he the tank liner was coming apart now it messed up my injectors, and I think ford should have a recall on something like that before someone gets killed or severly hurt!!!! it IS in the shop now and I think ford should pay something on this. *tr

Vehicle looses power, no acceleration, occurs most frequently under heavy load or high acceleration demand, told by ford dealer the problem IS caused by de-laminating fuel tank resulting in fuel tank coating entering the fuel system and obstructing diesel fuel flow to motor when high demand for duel occurs. Near collision at freeway speeds and was very dangerous to pull over when there was no shoulder. ford dealer states the cost to repair IS over $3,500.00 and open ended depending on whether the fuel tank coating entered the motor or injectors. They want to start by replacing the harness, fuel tank and fuel pump and go from there. Ford refuses to honor this clear manufacturing defect. *tr

Truck fails to maintain speed (acts fuel starved) and IS at risk of stalling in traffic. Vehicle has been maintain completely at ford dealership and has had no aftermarket adjustments. After taking this truck to the ford dealer (parr ford in bremerton, wa) we have been notified that the fuel tank IS delaminating and causing particles to clog the fuel system. as we haul a large trailer with this vehicle (as I'm sure other consumers do as well) this can result in a catastrophic outcome as stalling results in lack of steering abilities and can leave vehicle vulnerable in traffic. Ford needs to recognize this issue immediately and correct vehicles currently on the road at their cost. *tr

Fuel tank delamination. Trucks started running bad, would eventually stop. Has left me and my employees stranded several times, sometimes in unsafe traffic areas. New fuel tanks installed, fuel pumps injectors put in new. Entire fuel system cleaned. Just under $5000.00 each time. Ford says biofuel IS the cause. Never have used biofuel in anything. *Tr

2004 ford F-450 super duty. Truck was running as if it was running out of fuel, got to a stop light and the truck stalled. Got the truck to restart. That evening I had the fuel filters changed thinking that was the problem, then the truck ran fine. Two days later the truck did the same thing, and I was driving at 25mph, truck would not run any faster, then the truck stalled in the middle of a two lane road. The truck at this time did not restart. I had to get the truck towed. I got advice from a mechanic and he drained the tank and he found silver flakes in the tank. I called universal ford in richmond virginia and they had it towed there to look at the truck, and the technician verified that the tank was contaminated from the tank due to delamination of the interior of the tank. Ford motor company said that the cost was $783.93 for parts and $258.10 for labor, for a total of $1042.03 and ford motor was willing to pay only $312.00. This IS only for a tank replacement, not the filters, fuel pump or injectors if these parts are contaminated. I refused the service, on the fact that the service manager said that this will probably happen again with the new tank as well. I have found someone that can fix my tank for less money, but I would like results and this needs to be addressed before someone does get killed, if they haven't already. Ford IS saying to my knowledge that this IS the low-sulfur diesel fuel and not there fuel tanks. I have contacted a lawyer and he IS dealing with other clients with the same issue. *Tr

Our 2004 ford F450 diesel truck lost power when driving on the highway. We took it to ford and they told us the liner in the fuel tank was coming apart and they wanted $2100 to replace the tank. I saw on several web sites that this IS a common problem that ford IS well aware and refuses to take responsibility for. I saw over 1,000 blogs from people who have had the same problem and ford tells them it IS the fuel they are getting and not a default in the tank design. I believe they should own up to their mistake and recall these tanks instead of making money off of replacing them. *Tr

This complaint stems from problems experienced with my 2004 ford F-450 diesel powered truck. I purchased this 2004 ford new truck in late 2004. At present, the odometer reads approximately 63,000 miles. I experience loss of power at various intervals which causes the vehicle to slow down and power IS limited to a few miles-per-hour. I have returned the truck to ford for repair numerous times and ford has not been able to repair the problem. Ford has replaced the turbo two times, the wiring harness, the egr and other parts in the attempt to repair the problem. I returned this truck to ford again on 12-26-2008. The service department removed the fuel filter and they found that the lamination or lining of the fuel tank has separated from the metal which makes up the fuel tank. This appears as a flaky silver substance which clogged the fuel filter and lines and IS very expensive to repair. I have researched this failure on the internet and it appears that there are hundreds of complaints which point to the same failure of the ford fuel tank, especially on diesel powered vehicles. A sampling of the internet posts can be viewed at http://www.finishing.com/442/19.shtml. it appears that ford has taken the position that the problem IS due to the fuel that IS used in the normal operation of the vehicle. I do not believe this statement to be true. I believe there IS a manufacturers defect in the application of this laminate or, that the laminate IS not of correct material for the intended purpose. The bond which holds the laminate to the steel fuel tank IS breaking down and causing the vehicle to malfunction. I urge you to investigate this matter immediately. I know your department IS aware of this problem because I have read your response in numerous internet chat rooms and I urge you to act immediately to demand ford recall and make right these manufacturer defects. thank you for your prompt attention to this matter. *Tr

I have a complaint about the fuel tank in my 2004 F-450, the truck was losing power and driving like a plugged fuel filter and after changing fuel filters many times I had found a "grey flake like" materials in both filters. I decided to take truck to ford dealer in lincoln, ne to have looked at and fixed. They called back telling me the fuel tank lining was bad in the fuel tank and needed to be replaced at my expense. It also caused one injector to go bad(hopefully not more) and a "nozzle assembly". They charged me to dispose of the 25(OR so) gallons of fuel, and charged me for new fuel. The total bill was $2066.23. They said they talked to ford and ford would not warranty anything. In looking on internet there are many people with same problem. The tank has a liner in it that has dissolved causing the problems. I am the original owner, truck has 32000 miles and should not! need a fuel tank after 4 years. I have old fuel tank. Thanks, chris kems. *Tr

In a june 7, 2005 letter, ford notified odi that it would be conducting a safety recall of approximately 180,000 ford f-super duty, excursion and e-series vehicles equipped with 6.0L diesel engines to correct two wiring related conditions that could result in engine stall (nhtsa recall no. 05V-270, ford no. 05S34).the affected vehicles were built between september 29, 2003 and may 31, 2004.according to ford, vehicles with the conditions may stall without warning and may or may not restart.ford will instruct owners of vehicles included in the recall to take their vehicles to a dealer to have the fuel injector control module wire harness upgraded or replaced and or have a new injection control pressure sensor connector installed.during a may 2005 presentation to odi, ford identified a number of potential failure mechanisms that could affect engine performance in various segments of the subject vehicle population, including the wiring conditions addressed by 05v-270.the wiring conditions, which both affect engine fueling, were the most likely conditions to result in engine stall.the recalled vehicles comprise approximately 43% of the subject vehicle population and account for 75 of the 113 odi reports that have a valid vin (66%).the voq complaint rate for the recall population IS 45/100k while the rate for vehicles outside the recall population IS 17/100k and their trend (by date of receipt) IS declining.based on the analysis, odi believes ford?s actions are sufficient to address the current safety risks and the investigation IS thus closed.the closing of this investigation does not constitute a finding by nhtsa that a safety related defect does not exist.further action will be taken if warranted by future circumstances.
