What owners wrote
My high pressure fuel pump has failed due to what ford calls contaminated fuel. Since my truck has only 12,000 miles on it I assumed warranty would cover a mechanical failure. But ford says that contaminates got into my system past the fuel filters hpfp how in the world am I to know about the quality of fuel I am buying at fuel stations across america? This fuel system is the bosch cp4 platform which has a terrible record of failure. Ford wants $8500 to fix my truck.
While driving at around 60 MPH the dash starting chiming and gave me a stop safely now message. I slowed down and pulled over to the side of the road. At about 5 MPH the truck shut off, power steering and brakes faded. I was barely out of the lane of traffic and my attempts to restart the truck and get it further off the road to a safer spot were not allowed by the computer system. I had the truck hauled to a nearby ford dealer and after cooling off all night the truck would restart.
