Pickup with just under 50,000 miles has now had a "failed" oil cooler. We take immaculate care of our vehicles. I would like to know how many other 2011 ford f-350 super duty diesels have had an issue with a failed oil cooler as such low miles. No warning lights came on - it was "found" during a routine oil change (that there was oil in the coolant bay). This is a huge repair cost for a vehicle that has low miles.

Pulled over and fuel was everywhere under the hood and on the ground and also a very strong diesel smell inside the cab. Had it towed to the deal and turns out that a fuel injector clamp failed. We also found out ford has already identified these parts as defective,…

The engine light came on today in my 2011 f350 diesel . Dealer says def pump error code. Dealer says no pumps available until 03/15/2014. I think ford should issue a service bulletin. Dealer says no warranty. Dealer states truck will shut down at any time. This should become a recall issue with the nhtsa. Owners of these trucks tow trailers frequently with lengths in excess of 36'. Having a tow vehicle shut down in…

According to ford the truck's fuel pump went out. They said it was back ordered. 1100 trucks affected. I don't believe ford is supplying the whole story on the issue and their is a lot more to it. Ford is hiding something and you should look into it. I fortunately was in a safe place when the pump went out but others may not be. *tr
