2019 FORD F-250 Engine Problems

After sitting for extended durations the engine experiences a no start or long crank condition. Research and discussion with local mechanic indicate this is an issue with a failed/failing fuel pump and/or fuel pump module. It is my understanding a recall exists for similar failures on other ford models.

Ford Diesel 250 flat out stalled while driving on a very congested Highway. Full tank of Diesel. No warning. Complete stall at 65MPH, no brakes, no power steering, no lights. Was almost killed when the truck almost crashed into a bus. Happened (4) more times as we made our way back home. Internet search shows that Ford Motor Company is fully aware of this common failure of their fuel system. Federal regulators need to pressure Ford for a Recall before someone is killed

Subject: Urgent Safety Concern Regarding Rocker Arm Failure on My Truck I am writing to formally express my concern regarding a critical issue with the rocker arms on my 2019 Ford F250 6.7L Diesel which has caused significant safety concerns. I believe that the failure of these parts poses a serious risk to both the driver and others on the road. Recently, I experienced a failure of the rocker arms while driving. This unexpected breakdown caused engine misfire, loss of power, and unusual noise and severely impacted the performance of the vehicle. It is concerning that such a vital component could fail under normal driving conditions, compromising the engine’s functionality and potentially causing complete engine failure. The failure of the rocker arms is not only costly in terms of repair but also represents a significant safety hazard. Should the issue worsen while driving, it could lead to sudden loss of...
