F-250

  • 75,453 miles
My complaint has to due with the PCV valve hose that runs to the vacuum system. It gets too warm and melts and it causes the engine to stutter or stall causing the vehicle to stop rapidly. I have noticed this on many of the F250 or F150 5.4L Triton engines. This has happened several times to my truck and it is expensive to keep replacing it. It has almost caused a few rear endings.
