2005 F350 Super Duty

I hope every owner of the Ford trucks from 2003-2007 is aware of the law suit against ford. Ford sued navistar for issues with these motors. And won, but Ford has yet to make things right with the owners of these trucks.

2005 F350 Super Duty

We own a 2005 F350 Super Duty with only 130,000 miles on it. We have replaced the Bullet Proof Egr coolant an the oil coolant. Got it back on the road again an it runs like a new one but when you put a load behind it like our camper,well it boiles all the antifreeze back out the resouivor.Now its back in shop. Ford said $5-6000.00.Said it was head gaskets an the y-pipe had hole in it,whatever that is.Does anyone know what that is ? Anyway when we heard about a law firm in mississippi suing Ford , wow did we get in on it.

:welcome3 Merlene! The 6.0 engine is known to blow head gaskets in stock form. They WILL blow head gaskets with a tuner or chipped easier. I don't think this is news as they have been blowing head gaskets since the day they were released for sale. I have not heard anything about Ford's settlement with Navistar. Ford is famous for foot dragging.

Well we are waiting on ford to call us. We put truck in one of Ford dealership for the work. They will warranty thier work for one year or 12,000 miles which ever comes first. We love this truck, my husband built this truck online. And we payed for it early. We don't want to trade it off. I have posted some pictures. This all new to me.

If you go to the QUCIK LINKS button in the Blue Line, above and click on "Edit Signature" you will be able to add a signature to all of your posts. A little bit down from the Signature is Photos & Albums where you can add photos of your truck.

Hello Merlene, and Welcome to SSD.com. Glad to have you here. Come back often
and hope the dealer gets your truck fixed right the first time. What dealer in AL did
you take your truck to?
Just looked at your pictures, you got a fine family of Fords.
Doug
