Consumer Description

MY FORD F550 TRUCK IS BEING REPAIRED FOR A DELAMINATING FUEL TANK. FORD IS TRYING TO SAY IT IS FROM USING BIOFUEL,I NEVER USED ANYTHING BUT STRAIGHT DIESEL. THE TANK IS PLASTIC LINED AND IS COMING APART BADLY AND CLOGGING INJECTORS CAUSING THE ENTIRE FUEL SYSTEM AND ENGINE TO FAIL. THE DEALER SAID HE HAS SEEN THIS BEFORE AND IT IS BECOMING A RECURRING PROBLEM. THE TRUCK HAS 41,777 MILES ON IT. THE YEAR IS A 2005, IT WAS IN FOR AN EXTREME LOSS OF POWER WHILE STILL UNDER WARRANTY,THE DEALER MISS DIAGNOSED THE PROBLEM, CHANGED THE FUEL FILTER AND THE TRUCK HAS BEEN RUNNING ERRATIC EVER SINCE. THEY SAID THEY COULD NOT FIND ANY PROBLEM. NOW I AM PAYING TO HAVE A NEW TANK INSTALLED SAME AS THE OLD ONE, AND THE PROBLEM IS ONLY GOING TO HAPPEN AGAIN AND MAY EVEN LEAD TO AN ACCIDENT OR A BLOWN MOTOR. PLEASE CONTACT ME. *TR
