    Same problem w/ the def heating unit as on earlier/similar f-series trucks that have compelled ford to issue extended warranty (see customer satisfaction program 18m01) -- a dtc208a error comes up, indicating failure in the def sender/heater. Not clear why ford is omitting the 2015 f350 powerstrokes when they're using the same part and built in the same factory as the models that have had the warranty extended.

    The reductant heater recall needs to extend to at least my 2016 truck. They have had excessive failures. My last truck was included in the recall (warranty extension-program 18m01). This recall was given in 2018 and they should have included more than just 2012 to 2015.

    On my 2115 ford f 350 powerstroke diesel the check engine light came on and it de rated the power. I read the cel code and its pb20a which is a redactant heater performance failure. This problem is covered under warranty for all models 2011-14, f250-f 550 and 2015 f450, f550 only. Ford isn't covering the f250 of f350 in the 2015 years. My truck meets the date and manufacturing plant criteria and it is no drivable…

    While driving down the highway(45-55mph) vehicle dash lights, radio, windows all stop working. They come back on randomly. No change to little change when re-starting. Vehicle also loses power and the engine seems to pause and go, over and over like it's struggling. I've taken it to several ford certified mechanics who are baffled.
