2007 Ford F-350 Recalls & Complaints

Incident: July 25, 2025 · Filed: August 5, 2025

GT Radial Adventuro AT3, 275/70R-18 Load Range E The tire exploded at 65mph while pulling a trailer. I still have what is left of it. The debris flying off the vehicle into traffic and the need to pull completely off the road. The sharp reduction of speed in traffic on a 4 lane divided highway. The tire has not been inspected by any official or company. I had purchased hazard insurance from Walmart when I bought the tires. They refused to honor the coverage due to the tire having no tread. The 2nd tire, purchased at the same time, was on the drivers side, but they refused to consider the tread remaining on that tire as an example of the blowouts previous tread. I have an active TPMS (tire pressure monitoring system) on the truck and no alarms went off prior to the explosion. It did alarm after the explosion. It is also mounted, where I as the driver, can monitor it. The blowout severely damaged my truck. My insurance indicates they will cover the cost of repairs after my deductible, but not replacement of the tires. My 2 million miles operating my own semi causes me to believe the tire was manufactured in a defective manner. I have never seen, or recall a non-retread tire shedding ALL of it's tread. Recaps generally will. I have contacted Walmart Corporate and Giti Tire. Neither has responded. Lucky only my truck was damaged and the highway scattered with debris for other travelers to encounter!

Engine is the 2.7 Ecoboost and is becoming louder and louder with many ticks and sounds whether you are driving or idling the vehicle at a stop light. Every morning the engine ticks and revs very high and emits huge billowing white smoke from the exhaust whether it’s warm or cold outside. Believe the engine is needing to be replaced in the upcoming recall from ford for the exact engine.

Ford death wobble. Truck shakes violent and almost loses control driving at 60 miles per hour.

Incident: December 1, 2020 · Filed: June 3, 2022

This truck has the problem known as the “death wobble.” I bought the vehicle from Johnson City Ford in Johnson City Tennessee after they said they had inspected it and everything was fine on the truck. It was used so I bought the extended warranty. The truck started shaking so violently I couldn’t drive it. I took it back to this Ford place. They replaced the universal joint under my warranty. I left didn’t get it home and it started again shaking. I took it back to them and they confirmed the death wobble and said there were no recalls and they want 3600 dollars to fix the problem. I called Ford corporate and they said there were no recalls or programs to help with this problem.

6.0 LITER DIESEL ENGINE NEEDS OIL COOLER & EGR COOLER REPLACED EVERY 100,000 MILES ACCORDING TO FORD MECHANICS. MY ENGINE HAD THIS PROBLEM AT 98,000 MILES. THE COOLER IS UNDERNEATH THE INTAKE MANIFOLD MAKING REPAIRS VERY EXPENSIVE. THE MECHANICS TELL ME TO WATCH FOR SMOKE, LESS POWER, ETC. AND TO PULL OFF THE SIDE OF THE ROAD AND CALL A TOW TRUCK WHEN I EXPERIENCE THOSE PROBLEMS OR I COULD DESTROY THE ENGINE. THEY SAID MY ENGINE OIL IS RUNNING MUCH HOTTER THAN MY ENGINE COOLANT WHICH COULD CAUSE OIL SEALS TO BEGIN LEAKING. THERE IS NO WAY TO VERIFY THIS PROBLEM. I DON'T HAVE A OIL TEMPERATURE GAUGE IN MY TRUCK JUST A OIL PRESSURE GAUGE. FORD NEEDS TO STOP SELLING THIS ENGINE OR REPAIR THE PROBLEM.
