Example complaints
Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.
“After about 28,000-30,000 the truck would severely buck/jerk/hop when towing a load. The problem occurs in third gear most commonly. Upon acceleration up a hill, the truck has an extreme buck. The rpms raise and lower up to 400 RPM. Ford has determined this action to be normal. The only way I have fond to stop this, is to let all the way off the accelerator, and then try again. The truck will then start this again, in which I have to let off. …”
NHTSA complaint #10224227, filed 2008-04, 28,000 miles“Ever since we purchased our 2007 Ford f250, (which was delivered new in sept. 2006), the throttle has failed to return properly. There are intermittent delays of up to 10 seconds before the engine will return to idle after releasing the throttle pedal when driving the vehicle. We have taken the truck back to the dealer or called the dealer eight or more times complaining about the problem since delivery. To date, the problem is not fixed.”
NHTSA complaint #10192061, filed 2007-05, 10 miles“I have a Ford f250 2007 4x4 diesel. Went over a bump in the road and the steering wheel started shaking so bad I ran off the road. Ford sent me a letter about tire pressure, but I assure you I check my tires at least once a week because I pull equipment almost daily. Ford is trying to cover up something and it needs to be fixed. I have had the truck almost two years, and have had it back at the dealership 29 times in 22 months. They have an issue with either the turbo or the icp and keep telling me it is normal. …”
NHTSA complaint #10265146, filed 2009-04, 88,000 miles“The vehicle lacks acceleration from a standing stop, when you try to merge into traffic the vehicle hesitates and will not move for a 2 to 3 second span causing vehicles on the highway to close on the vehicle. On two occasions I had to swerve off the road to avoid a collision.”
