Spark plug ejected while driving on interstate causing emergency breakdown resulting in 550.00 bill for spark plug sleeve repairthen 50 miles from this incident the fan belt shredded resulting in engine overheating and another emergency repair of 520.00 for new belt and alternator.
I recently purchased a motorhome with the ford e-450, while driving out of my park i lost my turn signals and brake lights.
In early july my vehicle suffered an electrical fire in the engine compartment.this is a vehicle covered under the existing ford recall for the speed control wiring.the dealer , who had repaired the vehicle just 45 days earlier, stated that this fire was not associated with the recall.the dealer stated that this was a different type of wiring fire.i am concerned that the recall in place may not fully address the risk of fire, and that there may be more of a safety issue regarding the wiring harness than has been disclosed.
We were traveling north to south just outside of lasvegas when a spark plug blew out of the cylinder, with the injector still pumping fuel. In our 31' motorhome with a e450 engine. Did we not realize the seriousness of the situation the engine could have caught fire and caused extensive damage and possible injury.as a result this cost us $7200.00 and the loss of use of our vehicle and home for 10 days. We have asked ford motor company for some renumeration towards the cost of repairs because as we soon found out there have been thousands of these vehicles with the same problem.but because the vehicle was over 6 years old they would not provide assistance.we feel that even if we were compensated for the parts would be a fair response, because this situation could have resulted in a liability lawsuit.we would appreciate any assistance you can provide us with our request to ford.thank you,

While driving the ambulance the engine shuts off.the most recent incident happened while taking it to the shop.when the ambulance is at idle it just shuts off, while driving down the road and the rpm's are at idle the engine will just shut off.no crash or injuries however it was very close as the engine shut off it was going around a curve and lost power steering and brakes.
Rear brake caliper piston boots hard, brittle, split. Constructed of material that does not seem to have adequate heat resistant properties. Both rear caliper assemblies were replaced by dealer warranty.dt
I was driving down interstate 90 in south dakota at approx 70mph when a vehicle behind me flashed his lights. I pulled over and dragging behind me by only one hydraulic line was the rear leveling system.this assembly is about 5 feet long and has two hydraulic jacks one on each end. My guess is this weighs over 70lbs. Had this broken loose in the interstate at that speed god only knows what damage that could have caused..the undamaged bolts were still in the frame..(see photo 1) it appears to have just come loose over time.. With any kind of lock washer under the nuts or locking system this should never have happened. I disconnected the remaining hydraulic line and put the unit in the storage compartment in the camper(see photo 2)
