Consumer Description

THE TRUCK HAS DEVELOPED A ROUGH IDLE THAT CAUSES THE TRUCK TO FEEL AS IF IT IS MISSING. ALONG WITH THE IDLE THE FUEL ECONOMY HAS DROPPED 4-5 MPG. I HAVE HAD THE TRUCK IN 3 TIMES AND 2 DIFFERENT DEALERS TO TRY TO RESOLVE THE ISSUE. WHILE IN SERVICE DIAGNOSICS THE TECHS WHERE ABLE TO GET THE TRUCK TO MISFIRE TWICE BUT THEY FELT THAT IT WAS NOT ENOUGH TO BE SIGNIFCANT. THE FIRST DEALERSHIP SUGGESTED I TRADE THE TRUCK IN ON ANOTHER BECAUSE THEY DID NOT HAVE A FIX. THE SECOND DEALER STATED THAT THEY CONTACTED FORD AND WAS TOLD THAT THEIR IS A KNOWN ISSUE BUT FORD DOES NOT HAVE A FIX FOR THE ISSUE AND DOES NOT HAVE A TIMELINE FOR A ADAQUATE FIX. THE ISSUE HAS BEEN APPARENT NOW FOR 6 MONTHS WITH NO END IN SIGHT. I HAVE BEEN TOLD THAT I WILL JUST HAVE TO DEAL WITH IT. *TT
