Consumer Description

DE-LAMINATION OF ALUMINUM COATING IN FUEL TANK. THIS SENDS SILVER PARTICLES INTO THE FUEL FILTER CLOGGING SAID FILTER CAUSING THE VEHICLE TO STALL OUT OR STOP COMPLETELY. FORD KNOWS THERE IS A PROBLEM BUT REFUSES TO DO ANYTHING. THE VEHICLE HAS 72,000 MILES. I WILL HAVE TO SPEND OVER $1,500 TO GET THE PROBLEM FIXED. THE NEW TANK IS $1,200 AND IS ON NATIONAL BACK ORDER. NO TELLING WHEN IT WILL COME IN. MY TRUCK NOW SITS WAITING. I HAVE DONE LOTS OF RESEARCH ON THIS AND I AM NOT THE ONLY ONE WITH THIS PROBLEM. THE DEALER TOLD ME HE HAS REPLACED 200 OR MORE TANKS ALREADY. I'M BAFFLED AS TO WHY NOTHING HAS BEEN DONE ABOUT THIS. *TR
