1. 2005 ford f550 diesel truck stalling, rough idle, loss of power completely.2. The diesel fuel tank is delaminating and has caused $6,000 worth in damages. My truck stopped working completely and was towed to a ford dealership here in hawaii for diagnosis. My f550 is currently covered with a super duty diesel engine care warranty that cost over $3,000 yet ford will not replace the defected tank that has caused thousands of problems nationwide to date. The tanks need to be recalled and individuals need to be reimbursed. Ford has taken away from our economy and endangered our roads. 3. Fuel filters, fuel tank, fuel injectors, fuel pumps, fuel pressure regulators, and fuel senders all need to be replaced. They are planning to replace the fuel tank with the same manufactured tank. It has already been documented that the problem will reoccur as many have had to replace the tank more than once. Ford blames biodiesel yet i have never used biodiesel. This is manufactured defect. No other diesel tanks are having this problem on a daily basis nationwide.

Truck was purchased brand new by my company in 2005. This problem began in 2008. I have records of preventative maintenance being done per manufacturer instructions. I also had the pm done at the dealership. The chief problem is the engine has continual power issues which include stalling, shaking, excess smoking. The engine just stops running which is a huge safety risk while driving it. Since 2008 this truck has been to the dealership via tow truck for the same chief complaint at least 12 times. Each time the dealership will work on the egr valve, the egr cooler, the oil cooler, the icp valve, injectors, head and intake gaskets, the computers shoot codes such po261, po264, po267, po269, po270 and po273, po276, po279, po280 and po611. This trucks engine needs recalled to find the main problem. It is now 2012 my truck is 7 years old with just at 100,000 miles. This is a diesel engine 6.0 they are suppose to last longer than gasoline engines however this engine has major safety recurring problems that are dangerous to the public highway and the people driving on it. It also has cost thousands of dollars in unsuccessful repairs and lost work time for my company.

Truck started losing power on the highway. Would hardly climb an incline. We exited the highway, truck was running worse, and finally stalled out. It would only restart and run rough for a minute or two after letting it sit for a while, and then stall again. I had to get the truck towed back to my shop. We changed the fuel filters, and the one in the frame rail had a silver flaky substance inside the filter. I had to put the truck on a trailer, and bring it to the dealership. I was told i needed a new fuel tank, a new fuel pump, new fuel filters, and the fuel system needs to be flushed. They said they are aware of the problem, and they called a warranty rep. They refused to help me. I called ford roadside assistance, and they refused to help me. I now have to spend thousands to fix this. The parts salesman at the dealership say that this happens all the time, and sometimes the replacement tanks do the same thing. I know of about a dozen or a dozen and a half ford trucks that have had this exact problem. There is actually a dealership in ct that stocks a bunch of these tanks because this happens so much.
The contact owns a 2005 ford f-550. The contact stated while driving at 65 mph, the vehicle began to independently decrease in speed. The contact attempted to accelerate but the vehicle would not respond. The contact then switched to the rear fuel tank yet the failure persisted. He attempted to switch back to the front fuel tank however the vehicle stalled. The contact continued to switch from the rear to the front fuel tank and each time he would switch to the front fuel tank, the vehicle would stall. The contact stated he attempted to change the fuel filter however it was severely clogged with what appeared to be paint. The vehicle was taken to the dealer where the fuel tank, four fuel injectors and the fuel lines that were connected to the engine back to the tank. The dealer advised the failure was caused by de-lamination of the fuel tank. There were no recalls for the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 90,000 and the current mileage was approximately 95,400. The vehicle was taken to the dealer where they inspected the front fuel tank and discovered the coating and lining was peeling off inside the tank, which caused fuel shortage to the engine. The dealer replaced the front fuel tank, fuel filters, fuel regulator, fuel injectors and flushed all the fuel lines.updated evoq 09/08/10updated 10/04/10. *ljthe dealer inspected the tank and found the lining of the front tank peeling off and getting into the fuel tank system.

I am contacting you to file a complaint with ford motor company regarding the fuel tanks on 450 and f550 trucks that we own. I have more than one vehicle that is and has been affected by this. The fuel tanks are degrading from the inside, causing fuel system damage and creating a hazard due to the fact that as large as these vehicles are they can be disabled in traffic. I do understand that any vehicle could be rendered disabled. However this would be for a known cause. Ford dealerships are well aware of the problem as are many tank repair facilities in new england. I understand through research these tanks have been defective since 1998. Ford is trying to say it is due to bio-diesel. If you looked inside the tank, you would see it is like paint flaking off of a wall. This situation has been doing damage to pumps and injectors causing breakdowns. Ford is well aware of this and has done nothing to resolve it to the best of my knowledge.
I own a ford f 550 sd 2005, this truck has had fuel system problem off and on since i purchased three years ago. But this past week it started missing and stopping on me in traffic, i took it to the ford dealer and i'm told that the fuel tank lining is coming off and damaged the fuel pump, filters and injectors, repair to cost $5,000. Also that this is due to the epa's low sulfur requirement on diesel fuels. This may be true but ford know of this way prior to the start date of this new fuel and still is using defective parts that they will not cover under warranty or a recall today....this parts failure include 2 fuel tanks, fuel pump, fuel filters,and injectors all damaged due to a poor tank lining or coating.
My ford f550 truck is being repaired for a delaminating fuel tank. Ford is trying to say it is from using biofuel,i never used anything but straight diesel. The tank is plastic lined and is coming apart badly and clogging injectors causing the entire fuel system and engine to fail. The dealer said he has seen this before and it is becoming a recurring problem. The truck has 41,777 miles on it. The year is a 2005, it was in for an extreme loss of power while still under warranty,the dealer miss diagnosed the problem, changed the fuel filter and the truck has been running erratic ever since. They said they could not find any problem. Now i am paying to have a new tank installed same as the old one, and the problem is only going to happen again and may even lead to an accident or a blown motor. Please contact me.
1.the truck was losing power and could barley make it up any hill.2.the fuel tank is delaminating, aluminum flakes are clogging the filters and injectors.3.injectors were replaced along with the fuel filters.
We own a 2005 ford f-550 diesel truck.we are having problems with the fuel tank delaminating and causing the fuel flow to stop to the engine.this is a common problem on alot of ford diesel trucks, ford does not want to take responsibility for the tank delamination, causing the truck to stop running.we are having to pay for the repair, even though the truck is still under warranty.they say that we are running bio-diesel through the truck and this is what is causing the liner separation.

My ford f-550 fuel tank is peeling off and clogging up the engine. Causing it to stop dead in the middle of driving. Ford will not fix this under warranty work. My truck only has 27,500 miles on it.
Truck will have a sudden loss of power when driving on the highway and finally stalls out. It puts the driver and the occupants in a dangerous situation. We do manage to get the truck into the shoulder and attempt to start the truck up. After 10 minutes the truck will start up and drive ok. The truck will continue to do this intermittently putting the occupants at risk. The fuel filter is replaced but continuation of the same problem. The fuel pump is next to be replaced, then the lifter pump with still no results. They finally check the fuel tank and find rust and some sort of brown slime in the tank and replace the tank along with a new fuel filter which solved the problem.

The contact stated because the lining in the fuel tank has become lamented, it clogs the fuel filter.as a consequence fuel not only leaks, but the engine intermittently stalls. He contacted the dealer, and was advised by a technician that he would have to pay $900.00 to replace the fuel tank. No repairs were made. The failure and current mileages were 74,000.

We are getting reports that ford f550 trucks are losing their dual tires because of broken lug bolts on the rear duals. These are apparently happening on older models that have had eight bolt patterns. I am forwarding this information on behalf of several electric utilities across the country who have brought this information to my attention.
