The CP4 fuel pump began failing with the truck just over 100K miles. When taken in for routine service there were traces of metal shavings in my fuel. This is a widely known problem with the CP4 and is still being used in Ford trucks. The cost of repairs is substantial. The best case is you catch it early and it only costs between $3-6,000. If I had not caught this and the entire fuel system had been damaged, my local Ford dealership informed me it could cost close to $16,000. This is a devastating amount of money to pay for a well known issue in Ford trucks.

The hose connecting to the fuel filter in the engine compartment came off and dump fuel all over the engine. Luckily we turned it off before a fire started. This has happened 3 times now.

I have been made aware of the probe involving 2015-2021 Ford Super Duty pickups where the fuel filter housing and fuel lines have cracked. I wanted to make you aware that in November 2023, my vehicle suffered the same part failure. Park Ford in Tallmadge Ohio did the repair and I paid for it out of pocket. It was significant and I had diesel fluid leaking profusely. My vehicle is a 2017 Ford F-250 with the diesel engine and at that time only had approximately 50,000 miles on it. I thought it was odd that this part failed. I see it may not have been an isolated occurrence. I wanted to add my complaint to those being investigated by your agency.

This is the third time i have had to tow this vehicle in less than a year and half for a Long Crank no start. The fixed a melted wiring harness the first time. Second time couldn't tell me what the problem was but got it running and then now its back at the dealership again for the same problem.

- Ashland, OH, USA

The engine light activated on the dash randomly while driving. My truck was experiencing loss of power and for the next few days and reduced fuel mileage. I checked the engine code and learned it is a common error with 2017 Ford Super Dutys with the 6.7L diesel engine. The code is -??DTC P203B-??, sometimes indicated as P203B00 is an OBD diagnostic trouble code indicating a manufacturer-specific fault with the vehicle powertrain (i.e. engine and gearbox). This code identifies an error with the air/fuel mixture causing reductant level sensor circuit range/performance. I believe this error in manufacturing is a safety risk because it is common within these trucks and can leave motorists stranded or potentially disable the vehicle in the roadway causing a traffic hazard.

While responding my personal vehicle to a motor vehicle collision (volunteer first responder) my 2017 f250 lost all power at 70+ miles an hour on a highway. Power steering and power brakes were not functioning and caused a delay in service to the community. Mechanic diagnosed it as a contaminated fuel system from the problematic Bosch CP4 pump, which Ford is well aware of. They even have a -??kit-?? to fix this issue costing well over $6,000. This is a major safety issue when all power is lost especially if towing trailers.

Connectors on upper fuel filter cracked and diesel was spraying all over the engine compartment.

- Conroe, TX, USA

There is a pin hole in the center of plastic housing for the upper fuel filter on my 2017 F250 diesel. Shoots fuel out when driving. Very dangerous. Appears to be similar to the 2022 ford diesel fuel filter recall.

- Arlington, VT, USA

After driving for over an hour at highway speed, I smelled something but could not determine what it was. The next day I drove around town and once when I pulled up to a traffic signal, I noticed the smell again and some light smoke coming from the front of the truck. When I got home, I opened the hood and diesel fuel was dripping off the hood insulator and running all over the engine and around the seals around the hood. I cranked the engine again to see if I could determine where it was coming from and a saw a stream shooting straight up from the center of the engine. I took it to a local Ford dealership, and they repaired it. The top of the fuel filter mounted in the top center of the engine ruptured and sprayed diesel all over the engine. I left the part at the dealership after the repair. There were no dashboard warnings and there was no change in vehicle responsiveness in pressing the accelerator. When I returned from the dealership, the diesel that had spilled reached the exhaust system and smoke came out from under the center of the truck. It half-emptied the fuel tank in 3 days. I know diesel in not as volatile as gasoline, but this was still a dangerous situation.

- Helena, AL, USA

As I was driving down the road, I started to smell diesel fuel. No warning lights were illuminated on the dash. I pulled over and found that diesel fuel was leaking under the truck from under the engine. When I checked under the hood, I found that the secondary diesel filter had a stream of diesel coming out of it. I was able to safely get the vehicle home and started researching online, I found that this was a common problem but was not issued as part of a recall from Ford. I did find that the part was simple to replace so I performed the replacement myself. Unfortunately, I discarded the faulty part so it is not available for inspection but this is a common issue which many have experienced and I believe that finding a faulty filter will be easy. I am in contact with someone that has one on hand.

- Allen, TX, USA

Fuel filter cracks on the top and squirts diesel fuel all over engine bay. Happened once at 35k miles and then happened again at 44k miles. Very dangerous considering it can start a fire and no lights turned on.
