2008 FORD F-350 Engine And Engine Coolingexhaust System Problems

MY F350 CREW CAB HAS FUMES THAT ENTER THE CAB OF THE TRUCK WHEN THE EXHAUST SYSTEM IS CLEANING. THIS HAS BEEN HAPPENING FOR AS LONG AS I HAVE OWNED THIS TRUCK, YOU CAN'T LEAVE THE WINDOWS UP AND BREATH BECAUSE IT IS A HEALTH HAZARD. SUNBELT FORD IN CORDELE GEORGIA IS AWARE OF THIS PROBLEM AS THEY HAVE LOOKED AT THE TRUCK. I WAS ADVISED THAT MY TRUCK IS THE ONLY ONE THAT DOES THIS. I KNOW THERE IS A PROBLEM AS I HAVE BEEN A SATISFIED FORD TRUCK OWNER FOR YEARS AS WELL AS USING FORD TRUCKS IN MY CONSTRUCTION BUSINESS AND HAVE NEVER ENCOUNTERED THIS TYPE OF PROBLEM BEFORE. PLEASE ADVISE ME IN WRITING AS I FEEL THAT FORD MOTOR COMPANY HAS A PROBLEM. *TR

JUNE 25, 2007, WE WERE IN MONTANA AND HAD JUST COME DOWN FROM APPROX. 14,000 FT. PASS, CLOSED SUN ROOF ON OUR 2008 FORD F350 CREWCAB DIESEL, ALL 4 OCCUPANTS (3 ADULTS & 1 CHILD) FELL ASLEEP @ 2:00 PM IN THE AFTERNOON. PASSENGER WOKE AS WE WERE GOING OFF THE PAVEMENT, TRIED TO PUT TRUCK BACK ON PAVEMENT BUT FRONT OF TRUCK WOULD NOT GET UNDER CONTROL, HIT MAIL BOXES AND VEERED TO LEFT (STILL UNABLE TO CONTROL) NOT SPEEDING, HIT HEAD ON INTO TREES, ROLLED TO ROOF. AIR BAGS DID NOT DEPLOY ON EITHER SIDE, DRIVER SIDE (FRONT AND BACK) ROOF CRUSHED TO TOP AND INTO FRONT DRIVERS SEAT AND ALMOST TO FRAME OF WINDOW IN THE BACK SEAT. WHY OR WHAT CAUSED US ALL TO FALL ASLEEP AFTER CLOSING SUN ROOF, WHY WERE WE NOT ABLE TO CONTROL FRONT OF TRUCK (TOO HEAVY?), WHY DID AIR BAGS...
