2002 Ford F350 XLT review from North America
"An excellent truck. Poor dealer mechanics"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
22000 miles-Engine cut out and re-engaged five times while driving. Dealer replaced the Cam Position Sensor
24000 miles-Engine cut out and re-engaged seven times while driving. Dealer replaced the Cam Position Sensor
26000 miles-Engine cut out and and re-engaged several times while driving and ultimately would not restart. Dealer replaced Fuel Injection - High Control Pressure sensor, Powertrain Control Module , both batteries and repaired a shorted wire in the steering column.
Steering requires constant correction.
Front disks are warped already.
General comments?
Power is more than sufficient.
Pulls anything well. Gas mileage is the same loaded and unloaded.
Able to maintain speed climbing Colorado mountain passes.
Cab is comfortable though noise dissipation is diminishing with age.
