Reliability History
Reliability History
The reliability charts are based on responses on hundreds of thousands of vehicles from our latest Annual Auto Survey. Consumer Reports subscribers reported on any serious problems they had with their vehicles during the past 12 months that they considered serious because of cost, failure, safety, or downtime, in any of the trouble spots included in the table below. The results are presented relative to the average model that year. Extra weight is given to the more serious areas such as major engine or transmission problems. Based on this data and further analysis, we predict reliability for the latest year. N/A indicates that we did not receive a large enough sample size to provide data for a specific year. An X indicates that the vehicle was not manufactured for a specific year.

How it looks inside and out
"I was operating the Ford truck on I 95 and a light came on telling me the truck was losing power and shut down. Had it towed to a Ford service center and was told the problem was caused by contaminated fuel. The fuel was checked and found not to be contaminated. Ford still refused to repair the truck under warranty. The cost of the repair was $8,000.00. I filed a claim with my insurance company the result was the cause of the problem was not the fuel, so they did not repair the truck. What I discovered was the high pressure fuel pump on 6.7 diesel engines will not hold up pulling heavy loads regularly and break down shredding metal thru the fuel system.. I am aware of others who have had the same problem with Ford on this same engine. I have pictures of the problems and did research of this problem with this engine fuel system. Ford is using contaminated fuel as an excuse to not repair their vehicles. My truck on had 33,000 miles on it when the problem happen. My friend had 25,000 miles when he had the same problem. I received a call from an individual in Texas telling about the same problem. I have posted on the web about the problem with Ford and the 6.7 diesel engine. This is something I would like to see CR look into. If you have any questions please contact me at 910-584-3452 or email: wkvmeso@yahoo.com."
