NHTSA Complaint #11437311 — 2014 FORD F-250

On August 21,2021 we were about 2 hrs from home meeting some family to visit for awhile my husbandand I are both in our 60's. Just as we were entering Lufin Tx our truck dropped from 60 mph to 30 with no warning. I pulled to shoulder of the road and truck completely died. If we had been on an interstate there's a possibility the truck would have died in the middle of the interstate hwy with no way of getting out of traffic. Our truck was towed to Lufkin Ford since we couldn't afford the $ 394.00 to have it towed closer to our home. We were told by Lufkin Ford our P4 high pressure pump had went out, sending metal shards through our motor a $9400.00 repair. To this date our truck has not been repaired because there's a problem getting the pump. It seems this is a problem with the high pressure fuel pump in these diesel trucks, cause I was informed there are 6 trucks at this repair shop waiting on the same part so I'm sure this has been an on going problem.
