NHTSA Complaint #11530624 — 2022 FORD F-350 SD

I purchased the vehicle in 2022 and in January of 2023 my engine gave a malfunction indicator light flashing with only 45000 miles in it. They claimed that the hydraulic lifter and pushrod and camshaft were broken and damaged causing metal to spread throughout the engine. It took about a month to get my vehicle back. In May of 2023 the second engine gave out again with about 38000 miles on it. I was informed the same exact parts failed in the same cylinder causing metal debris to spread throughout the engine again. Ford is knowingly selling vehicles with these defective parts that could potentially put me and my family in danger. There are many videos and forums with ford technicians putting images of these parts online. I’m now on engine number three in less than a year and at two different dealerships in different states was informed that they are seeing this trend. It’s been six weeks now that my vehicle is at the dealer. I am an owner operator and this truck is my only livelihood. Another failure will put me out of business if not the. Potentially in harms way.
