2006 Ford F-250 Problems

Purchased my truck last year and was unaware of problems with this truck.whikr traveling couple miles from my home on a paved two lane road I ran over a small gravel or walnut which immediately sent my truck into uncontrollably shaking in the front end my speed was between 30 and 35 mph it was all I could do to get it to the side of the road and stopped.Shaking I got out and looked underneath the front thinking I had a wheel or something about to come off.I couldn't see anything noticeable loose.So I got back in and very slowly continued to my destination.Since then it has happened more times than I can count small hump or raised pavement or even a hole in the road will send it into a shaking fit all I can do is try and get to the side of the road and come to a stop.Im in a fix as this is the only vehicle I own and I can't afford to buy another and no one knows what to do to fix it.I feel like I'm riding in a death trap Everytime I have to run out I try and stay on the back roads where I don't have as much traffic and don't have to go as fast having this happen on the interstate is extremely scary not to mention trying to get to the side of the road and not get ran over by tractor trailers.When I purchased this truck it only had around 53,000 miles on it and is still under 60,000.Ive seen read about the problem Ford is having and that they are doing nothing about it.I think this is a disgrace for a company my own father worked for them for 15 years and it's ashame they don't care about their reputation or their company or the safety of their customers and families.I want my truck added to the list of the ticking time bombs they have out on the road.

The front end wanders and grabs any road deformities severely enough to put you in another lane

While driving on the freeway the vehicle started to shake violently. I had to pump the breaks slowly and pull to the side of the road. After checking everything we took it to the shop and they did 2k in repairs and said it was fixed. It did it again. They said they don't know what it is.

Our truck has been doing the "death wobble" several times over the last 2 years. The truck will suddenly shake violently at high speeds and go into limp mode. We have to pull over pumping the brakes slowly. It is EXTREMELY TERRIFYING to have happen and we have spent THOUSANDS trying to get it repaired but it continues.

I WAS TRAVELING STRAIGHT ON THE INTERSTATE JUST BELOW THE SPEED LIMIT. I HEARD AN ODD NOISE FELT THE TRUCK FEEL UNSTABLE. I SLOWLY COASTED TO A HALT TO FIND THAT MY REAR PASSENGER TIRE HAD BLOWN OUT. THE ENTIRE SIDEWALL WAS DISINTEGRATED AND THE TIRE WAS DETACHED FROM THE RIM. IT BENT IN MY THE REAR QUARTER PANEL OF MY BED CAUSING AN ESTIMATED $1200 IN DAMAGE.

The check engine light continues to stay on no matter what Ford tries to do. We can not get the truck smogged for registration due to this problem.

WHILE DRIVING VEHICLE DASH CONTROLS, WINDOWS, RADIO ALL SHUT OFF AND TURN BACK ON OCCASIONALLY. IF THE VEHICLE STARTS AND THE CONTROLS ARE NOT CURRENTLY WORKING THE TRUCK IDLES HIGH AND CHUGS. WHEN GAGES ARE NOT WORKING THE BATTERY DOES NOT CHANGE EITHER. THE GAGES SHUT OFF WHILE MOVING, NOT MOVING AND AT TIME S ARE OFF RIGHT WHEN THE TRUCK STARTS. DOES IT WHILE DRIVING STRAIGHT, TURNING, BACK ROADS HIGHWAY AND ALSO DRIVEWAY. WHILE LOOKING ON GOOGLE THERE HAVE BEEN AT LEAST 30 OTHER COMPLAINTS OF THE SAME EXACT ISSUE WITHOUT A 100% FIX FOR THE PROBLEM. FORD NEEDS TO INSPECT AND FIND A WAY TO FIX THIS PROBLEM.

My son was driving on the freeway, traveling approximately 83 mph, when the vehicle lost power, the engine stalled and he lost the ability to steer the vehicle properly. The vehicle was parked at nearest gas station until i could get to it. After inspecting engine, I noticed some wires that had the insulation coming off. I replaced wiring harness, and when doing so, found the main harness to be severely chafed from rubbing the under side of air filter ducts. When looking around engine bay I noticed other wires with insulation coming off too.

I OWN A 2006 FORD F 250, ON SATURDAY WHILE DRIVING THE VEHICLE ON THE HIGHWAY I NOTICED A WET STREAK BEHIND ME SO I PULLED OVER AND NOTICED GAS GUSHING OUT OF A HOLE IN THE TANK. FORTUNATELY I WAS IN A RURAL AREA CLOSE TO HOME, SO I DROVE IT THE REST OF THE WAY HOME AND PARKED IT IN A FIELD, AWAY FROM ANY BUILDINGS TO ALLOW THE 30+ GALLONS OF GAS TO DRAIN OUT. THE CAUSE OF THE LEAK WAS ONE OF THE STRAPS THAT SECURES THE FUEL TANK BROKE (RUSTED IN HALF) AND THE GAS TANK DROPPED DOWN AND WAS DRAGGING AGAINST THE HIGHWAY. I ATTACHED A PHOTO OF THE STRAP THAT BROKE

I WAS TRAVELING SOUTH ON I-85 IN MEBANE, NC ON THE NIGHT OF 07/29/19 WHEN THE RIGHT REAR TIRE BEGAN TO VIBRATE EXCESSIVELY. I BEGAN TO SLOW DOWN WHEN THE RIGHT REAR TIRE EXPLODED. APPROXIMATELY ONE-HALF OF THE TREAD DETACHED FROM THE TIRE CAUSING DAMAGE TO THE RIGHT SIDE OF THE TRUCK BED. MICHELIN LT 265 70 R 17 LTX AT/2, 10 PLY TIRES WERE ON THE TRUCK. I REPLACED ALL FOUR TIRES WITH A DIFFERENT BRAND OF TIRE. I CONTACTED MICHELIN ON 08/02/19 TO FILE A CLAIM AND WAS TOLD THAT WITHOUT THE TIRE THAT EXPLODED, A CLAIM COULDN'T BE FILED. I CONTACTED THE TIRE SHOP AND THE TIRES THAT WERE REMOVED FROM MY TRUCK HAVE ALREADY BEEN DISPOSED OF. I HAVE PROOF OF PURCHASE AND PHOTOS OF THE DEFECTIVE TIRE AND DAMAGE DONE TO MY TRUCK. MICHELIN STATED THAT PROOF OF PURCHASE AND PHOTOS WERE NOT ACCEPTABLE. I'M BEING OVERLOOKED FOR MICHELIN'S DEFECTIVE PRODUCTS AND THIS IS NOT GOOD CUSTOMER SERVICE. I GOT A AUTO BODY REPAIR ESTIMATE FOR THE TRUCK ON 08/02/19.

MY HUSBAND DRIVES A 2006 FORD F250 SUPERCAB PICKUP TRUCK WITH APPROXIMATELY 53,000 MILES (LOW MILEAGE FOR THE YEAR OF THE TRUCK). RECENTLY, THE LATCH CABLES ON THE REAR SUICIDE DOORS BOTH BROKE WITHIN 1 MONTH OF EACH OTHER, RENDERING THE REAR DOORS COMPLETELY INOPERABLE. FROM RESEARCHING BLOGS ONLINE, THIS IS CAUSED BY A DEFECTIVE PLASTIC PART IN THE LATCH MECHANISM AND IS QUITE COMMON ON THIS TYPE FORD TRUCK DOOR. THE PARTS AND LABOR ARE QUITE COSTLY ($400 PER DOOR), AS THE WHOLE MECHANISM MUST BE REPLACED, RATHER THAN JUST THE DEFECTIVE PLASTIC PIECE. THIS IS CERTAINLY A SAFETY CONCERN, AS ANYONE IN THE REAR OF THE VEHICLE IS TRAPPED INSIDE, AS THE DOORS WILL NOT UNLATCH AND OPEN. WE WERE TOLD BY FORD CUSTOMER CARE THAT THEY WILL NOT CORRECT THIS PROBLEM AND MUST REPLACE THE LATCH WITH THE SAME TYPE LATCH CABLE THAT HAS ALREADY BROKEN (CASE # [XXX]). THERE IS NO GUARANTEE WITH THE REPLACEMENT THAT IT WILL NOT HAPPEN AGAIN AND IS QUITE A SAFETY CONCERN, ESPECIALLY IF A CHILD IS IN THE REAR SEAT, AS PASSENGERS MAY NOT BE ABLE TO EXIT DURING AN EMERGENCY. WE FEEL THIS SHOULD BE A RECALL ISSUE AND THE DEFECTIVE PIECE SHOULD BE REPLACED AT NO CHARGE. PERHAPS YOUR AGENCY CAN LOOK INTO THIS MATTER TO SEE IF THIS IS AS COMMON A PROBLEM AS IT APPEARS AND IS NOT ISOLATED TO MODEL AND YEAR OF OUR FORD TRUCK. THESE DOORS ARE COMMON ON MANY FORD TRUCKS. FORD WILL NOT PROVIDE A REMEDY OR RELIEF FOR THIS SITUATION. THANKS FOR YOUR TIME. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6). *TR
