This data is from the NHTSA — the US gov't agency tasked with vehicle safety. Complaints are spread across multiple & redundant categories, & are not organized by problem.
So how do you find out what problems are occurring? For this NHTSA complaint data, the only way is to read through the comments below. Any duplicates or errors? It's not us.
6.0L diesel engines to address reported incidents of engine stalling while driving occurred up to 9 times in one day. On June 25 took vehicle to certified diesel tech, no computer errors. D & S service techs trouble shot for 5 days to no avail. Manufacture has no advice for repair. After 1 week being serviced and over $1,800 of work it stalled again on July 3rd. This is a serious safety concern for myself and my family. Please help in addressing this matter. Thank you.

2005 6.0 diesel Excursion has had many motor issues and lots of parts already replaced by Ford up to this date. Turbo quit working while driving and had to be replaced in may, 2007. In June, 2007, vehicle has more turbo issues and egr cooler assembly is replaced. On July 4th, 2007, vehicle starts stalling while driving down freeway and wiring harness had to be replaced. On July 16th, 2007, (3 days home from shop), stalls again while driving down freeway. Dealership cannot determine problem yet refuses to buy back defective vehicle. It's been over 60 days in shop since bought brand new in 2005. Oasis report is 6 pages long already.
Diesel engine, vehicle will on occasion fail to start. Engine will turn over but it seems no fuel gets to engine. Gas pedal module and assembly have been replaced 5 times with the problem continuing.
