Entered on 10/04/2016 at 2:45:07 pm edt (gmt-0400) by [email protected]: sender name: sender email: subject: ford f-450 cooling system failure and engine problems comments: i purchased this truck new in 2008 and drove it cross country towing my 5th wheel. At 4,544 miles the radiator blew apart. (driving highway/towing) this was replaced under warranty after fighting with ford. At 6,065 miles i had another cooling system leak.(driving local) they had to replace the "small" radiator, the "fuel and turbo" cooler. At 21432 miles the power steering pump went and had to be replaced.(driving/towing/local) shop stated that "fluid was contaminated" (this truck has only been serviced by ford) at 22215 miles i had to have the left rear axle seal, brake pads and lower cac hose for turbo replaced.( driving highway/towing) now at 29,017 miles the radiator tanks have separated from the core and need to be replaced again along with the crank seal and another power steering pump.( combination, highway/local/towing? Not towing) i have checked with ford and their customer service department and they refuse to cover any of this, or any part, under warranty. I have also done research on these trucks having found many other owners having the same cooling system issues along with other issues that ford refused to cover. Please look into this issue, i think they need to have a recall on the cooling systems in their trucks. Thank you for taking the time to read this. I would appreciate a response. Check edmunds ford f-450 sd turbo diesel review, multiple complaints of cooling system failure, engine failure. *tr

Tl* the contact owns a 2008 ford f-450. While driving 40 mph, the vehicle stalled without warning. The vehicle was able to be restarted after the contact removed and reconnected the battery. The failure recurred intermittently. The vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic where it was diagnosed that the exhaust fuel recirculation valve failed and needed to be replaced. The vehicle was repaired, but the remedy failed. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was unknown.

I have 2008 ford f450 with 60 k miles and radiator start leaking at the bottom and it was building preassure on the top of atifreaze box and heat air stoped working and ford dealer that i bought from disnt cover the warranty i paid 1400$ to get problem fixed and it second radiator that i changed from my pocket !!!! I think ford needs to do something with that it should be a recall for all 2008-2014 power stroke diesel engines

Investigation needs to be done on 2008 ford f450sd 6.4l trucks on the bolts that are used in the engine compartment for the exhausts. Have a bolt that broke that is now causing a whistling sound under acceleration and exhaust fumes to escape. On the driver side four other bolts have broken off in the head unit that will require for the engine or cab to be removed in order to replace the bolts. The repair facility my truck is located has four other 6.4l ford super duty trucks sitting their for the same repairs. Seems to me there is an issue with the type of studs and bolts the manufacturer used. Recall needs to be issued to fix this issue. The other trucks were f250, f350, and f450 super duty 6.4l turbo diesel. The exhaust fumes is definitely a safety hazard.

Ford needs to issue a recall for faulty bolts in the engine compartment. One bolt broken off on the passenger side that deals with the exhaust causing a whistling sound under acceleration. Four bolts broke off on the driver side that go into the head of the engine block. Impossible to gain access to these bolts unless you pull the engine out in order to replace. Ford needs to held accountable for these faulty hardware and replace this at no cost to the owner of the vehicle.

I was making a left hand turn afyer stoping at a traffic light and loss power. The engine light came on and the turbo pressure gauge dropped. I took the truck into the dealer and the dealer told me that a manafold bolt had broken which caused a bad exhuast leak. Repair cost was $3500. I drove the truck less than 50 miles over the next two days and the problem happened again with loss of power and engine light on. I took the truck back the dealer and was informed that the high pressure fuel pump had exploded and sent metal debris through out the fuel system. I was then told the repair cost were going to $7500 ($6000 for parts and $1500 for labor). This is a bad ford engineering design problem and should be paid for by ford as well as a recall on all models using the same hpfp assembly.
