Example complaints

Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.

“Our vehicle has been to three different Ford dealers for the same repair. The vehicle develops a miss. It will show up while driving at about any speed under very light acceleration. The only thing consistent that was said by all the dealers is that many 6.0l engines had the same problem, that Ford was developing a repair plan, that the engine was sooting up a sensor, and that they didn't know how to stop the problem. They said they could keep replacing the same sensor that would temporarily resolve and clear codes, problem would likely return.”
