| Description of the problem | The above vehicle has had multiple problems due to the design of the engine including such things as the egr cooler, the egr valve (twice), the fuel injector control mod (ficm), the high pressure oil regulator screen, (a . 10 cent piece 450. 00 labor). If you will search this engine from 2003 to 2007 you will find hundred if not thousand of post by owners of the 6. 0 powerstroke that are having the same problems over and over. Ford refuses to do anything to help anyone and they told me in an email you were the only ones that can make them have a recall. I hope you will step up and help all of us. Ford filed suit against the manufacture (internation/ navistar) over this engines problems back in 2004 but they kept selling it knowing it had problems that would be left up to the buyers of the vehicles, i was personally told by a salesman to expect 350,000 miles from this engine. If you can not help me and the others can you tell me what else i can do? Will it take legal action or is there another path i can take? |
