Truck problems and history
Last month while returning from the coast for the weekend check engine light came on and truck stalled.
Truck was taken to XXXXXXXXXX ford dealer in Salem to be serviced truck was returned on tue saying problem was fixed,
truck stopped runing less then 15 miles back home and had to be returned to ford dealer truck was there for 3 more days till sat of that week.
Sense that time I have had a loss of fuel mileage by almost 50 % example
a. From Dallas 0regon to sand lake took 15 gals of fuel or almost a half of tank.
and current was taking about 10 gals a weekend to drive it there only
b. Truck suffers from a loss of power at times for no know reason,
c. truck now suffers from what appeared to be a dead peddle till sat when it happened and I looked at the tach and it was reading almost 3000 rpms truck was not going any place, truck was sitting on dry payment out side my toy hauler
d. truck at time for not know reason will just start blowing out blue smoke this is a dark cloud not like at start up in the morning
e. stalling of motor while driving has become an on going problem seems the truck was serviced by a ford in July of this year
f. tow haul mode is now a joke, and with the use of this truck very dangerous bring down an injured person off a trail and tow hauls shift in to what appears to be a neutral mode, this was not a problem prior to service by the other ford dealer in July.
Sunday morning when to use truck to respond to a problem on the sand between first and second bowl ,and truck would not move. tried several more times over the next few hours to get truck to move with the same answer
Lots of RPMS just no action
Check engine light was on but not blinking
After sitting while I waited for the tow truck the truck once again changed and started right up and moved under it own power to the tow truck
