Ford Recalls 37,000 Diesel Super Duty Trucks
Thursday, March 22nd, 2007

CNN is reporting that Ford announced a recall yesterday of “over 37,000 of its new 2008 model F-Series Super Duty trucks after reported tailpipe fires in the diesel version of the pickups.” From CNN:
“Ford said it had received reports of three cases where leaking fuel or oil ignited when trapped in a diesel particulate filter near the tailpipe of the new trucks. In one case in Texas, a truck’s hot tailpipe set off a grass fire when the driver pulled off the road.”
Considering how popular the Super Duty models are as work trucks here in Texas, I’d imagine more than a few Texas dealerships’ll be seeing these in the near future.
