2012 FORD F-350 SD Engine And Engine Coolingenginediesel Problems

THIS IS THE THIRD TIME THAT MY TRUCK HAS LEFT ME ON THE SIDE OF THE ROAD. FORD HAD A RECALL OF ALL 2012 AMBULANCE F350 BECAUSE OF THIS EXACT SITUATION AND IS LEAVING THE CONSUMER TO WORRY WITH IT ON THEIR OWN. THE ACTUAL PROBLEM IS THE EGT SENSOR 13 AND 14 IN THE EXHAUST SYSTEM. THESE SENSORS CONTINUE TO FAIL AND ALL FORD CAN DO IS TO KEEP MY VEHICLE FOR 4-5 DAYS AND TELL ME THAT THEY CANT FIND THE ISSUE AND THEY REPLACE THE SENSORS (ONLY TO FAIL AGAIN IN ABOUT A MONTH). I CAN NOT DRIVE THIS VEHICLE ANYWHERE WITHOUT THE THOUGHT OF FAILURE. THERE IS NO WAY I CAN TAKE THIS TRUCK OUT OF MY NORMAL AROUND TOWN AREA AS IF FAILURE DOES OCCUR, I AM STUCK. I AM AFRAID THAT IT IS GOING TO DIE ON ME IN TRAFFIC AND CAUSE AN ACCIDENT...

WARNING CAME ON SAYING "STOP SAFELY NOW" AND AS I PULLED TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD THE TRUCK SHUT DOWN AND WOULD NOT RE-START. LUCKILY I WAS NOT ON A BUSY ROAD, PULLING A TRAILER OR OUT OF CELL RANGE OR THERE DEFINITELY COULD HAVE BEEN A PROBLEM. BECAUSE THERE IS NO WARNING AND THE VEHICLE WILL NOT START AGAIN AND THESE TRUCKS ARE WAY TO BIG TO SIMPLY PUSH OFF THE ROAD THIS IS A VERY DANGEROUS SITUATION. AFTER LOOKING INTO THE PROBLEM ONLINE I HAVE DISCOVERED THAT THIS IS AND HAS BEEN A PROBLEM ON THESE TRUCKS AND NOW THAT I HAVE BEEN TOLD THAT THE REPLACEMENT SENSOR IS ON NATIONAL BACKORDER AND WILL TAKE AN UNDETERMINED AMOUNT OF TIME TO FIND, THIS IS A VERY COMMON PROBLEM. THESE ARE LARGE TRUCK AND OFTEN ARE PULLING LARGE LOADS, THIS PROBLEM OF A SENSOR THAT CAN COMPLETELY SHUT...

DUE TO EGT SENSOR READING HIGH EG TEMPS TRUCK SHUT OFF WITH NO WARNING. LEFT ME STRANDED IN THE MIDDLE OF A BUSY STREET UNTIL A GOOD SAMARITAN PULLED ME TO THE CURB. TRUCK WAS FULLY LOADED, BUT NOT OVER LOADED. *TR

WHILE DRIVING AN ALARM SOUNDED AND THE DRIVER DISPLAY STATED " STOP SAFELY NOW" AND LOST ALL THROTTLE RESPONSE. WHEN THE VEHICLE STOPPED, THE ENGINE SHUT OFF AND IT WOULD NOT CRANK OR RESTART. IT HAD TO BE TOWED FROM A BUSY INTERSECTION. THE FAULT TURNED OUT TO BE A FAILED EGT EXHAUST TEMPERATURE SENSOR. IT WAS NOT EVEN A ENGINE COMPONENT. IT IS PROGRAMMING ALONE THAT PREVENTED MOVING THE TRUCK TO A SAFE LOCATION. WHAT IF THIS WAS A RAILROAD GRADE CROSSING? OR HAD KIDS IN THE TRUCK? I CAN'T LET MY WIFE DRIVE IT NOW IT HAS 4 OF THESE SENSORS AND ONLY THE 1 FAILED ONE WAS CHANGED. FORD HAS A TSB 13-13-3 ON THIS. IT IS IN ITS 3RD REVISION. THEY KNOW OF THE PROBLEM. *TR
