Consumer Description

CPS- CAM POSITION SENSOR FAILURES. 2001 F350 7.3 POWERSTROKE. WHILE DRIVING THRU A CONSTRUCTION ZONE ON I-40 WESTBOUND, TRUCK JUST DIED. LUCKILY I WAS ABLE TO GET OFF THE ROAD WITH OUT BEING RUN OVER BY EXTREMELY HEAVY TRAFFIC. TRUCK WAS TOWED TO FORD DEALER AND THE TECHNICIAN SAID TRUCK DIED TO CPS FAILURE. 02/2005. CPS FAILURE AGAIN,04/18/2007 BUT THANK GOD THIS TIME IT WAS IN THE INTEL PARKING LOT. I HAD TRUCK TOWED HOME. 107 DOLLARS FOR CPS. REPLACED CPS AND TRUCK IS ONCE AGAIN RUNNING FINE. FORD CORPORATION IS FULLY AWARE OF THIS PROBLEM WITH THIS SENSOR AND WILL DO NOTHING ABOUT IT. THIS IS A EXTREMELY DANGEROUS PROBLEM THAT COULD HAVE ENDED TRAGICALLY FOR ME. *TR
