2009 Ford F-450 Sd

MY 2009 FORD F-450 TRUCK CURRENTLY IS AT MY LOCAL DEALER WHICH IS KERRY FORD IN CINCINNATI WITH A BAD MOTOR AND BAD REAR DIFFERENTIAL. THE MOTOR HAS ONE FAILED LIFTER AND 2 FAILED ROCKER ARMS. THE REAR END HAS A BAD PINION BEARING WHICH SENT METAL THROUGH THE DIFFERENTIAL WHICH DESTROYED THE GEARS. THE MOTOR IS A 6.4 LITER POWERSTROKE DIESEL AND THE REAR END IS A DANA 110. THE MOTOR ISSUES ARE COMMON KNOWLEDGE TO BOTH FORD REPAIR FACILITIES AS WELL AS FORD CORPORATE OFFICES. THE REAR END IS ALSO A KNOWN ISSUE BOTH WHICH CAN BE CONFIRMED BY ANY POWERSTROKE CERTIFIED MECHANIC. THE MOTOR ISSUE WAS CONFIRMED BY 2 SEPERATE SHOPS TO WHICH I WAS SUGGESTED BY MY REPAIR FACILITY AND MECHANIC TO CONTACT FORD CORPORATE FOR A "GOODWILL POLICY" TO COVER THIS ISSUE EVEN THOUGH IT IS CURRENTLY PAST THE WRITTEN WARRANTY DUE TO THE FACT FORD HAS COVERED NUMEROUS ENGINE FAILURES BECAUSE OF THIS INHERENT ISSUE. THE REGIONAL FORD REP DENIED ANY ASSISTANCE TO THIS ISSUE WHEN EVEN THE DEALER HAS SAID ITS COMMON AND SHOULD BE ADDRESSED. UPON FINDING OUT THE DECISION WHICH TOOK 2 WEEKS OF MY TRUCK BEING IN THE SHOP I WAS ADVISED TO CONTACT THE CORPORATE CUSTOMER RELATIONS LINE WHICH I DID TO TRY TO TALK TO MY REGIONAL MANAGER BUT AS PER FORDS POLICY I CANNOT GET A DIRECT CONTACT TO ANY REGIONAL REP OR ANYONE ABOVE THIS PERSON. MY DEALERSHIP SERVICE MANAGER STATES HE CANT EVEN GET A DIRECT NUMBER TO THE REP HIMSELF SO BASICLY FORD INSULATES ITSELF FROM ANY DIRECT CONTACT FOR A CONSUMER TO RESOLVE ANY ISSUES. I HAVE NUMEROUS DOCUMENTED FAILURES OF THIS VEHICLE WHILE UNDER WARRANTY WHEN IT HAS BEEN MAINTAINED TO THE VERY BEST SCHEDULE. THIS ISSUE IS AN INHERENT DESIGN FLAW OF THIS MOTOR WHICH SHARES THE SAME VALVETRAIN PARTS WITH THE PREVIOUS 6.0 LITER POWERSTROKE WHICH IS ALSO DOOMED FLEETWIDE WITH THESE SAME ISSUES WHICH AS ALSO HIGHLY DOCUMENTED.

Ford and Lincoln vehicles equipped with wired keyless entry keypad systems and accessory wireless keyless entry keypad systems may or may not come with a wallet card containing the master code. Unlike the integrated wired keypad, the accessory wireless keypad master code cannot be retrieved from the vehicle using a diagnostic scan tool or from the label printed on the body control module (BCM). The Factory Keyless Entry Code application within the diagnostic scan tool will not provide an applicable master code for the accessory wireless keypad. If the wallet card for an accessory keypad is not available, the "Wireless RF Keypad Diagnosis Guide" can be referenced and provides direction on how to retrieve the master code. This guide is located under the Workshop Manual tab > Accessories > Installation > Wireless RF Keypad Diagnosis Guide > PPT C > Step C2.<br /><br /> Note: The only available keypad for some vehicles from the assembly plant is the accessory wireless keyless entry keypad. The integrated wired keypad cannot be installed on vehicles not equipped from the factory with a wired keyless entry k

All accessory stick-on keyless entry keypads come with a wallet card containing the master code. If the accessory keypad was factory installed, this card will be placed in the glove box and should be handed to the vehicles owner during initial delivery. Unlike the integrated (wired) factory keypad, the accessory keypad master code cannot be retrieved from the vehicle using a diagnostic scan tool. If the wallet card for an accessory keypad is lost, follow these steps to recover the code. Dealer Key Code access is granted through the Dealer Program Enrollment System (DPES); dealership management can authorize users. The authorized user must go to FMCDealer.com > Parts and Service > Parts Product Line Information > Keys/Entry Devices > Aftermarket Keyless Entry Keypad Code Access. Follow the instructions on the screen to obtain the master code for the accessory keypad.
