FREQUENTLY ON DAMP AND COLD DAYS, THE ELECTRICAL SYSTEM STARTS MALFUNCTIONING. THE WIPERS FAIL TO WORK. THE LIGHTS (HEAD, PARKING FOG, BLINKERS) ON THE DRIVER'S SIDE OF THE TRUCK DON'T WORK. WHEN I REMOVE THE KEY FROM THE TRUCK THE RADIO AND ALL THE INTERIOR LIGHTS STAY ON EVEN AFTER I TRY TO LOCK THE DOORS. SOMETIMES THE RADIO RANDOMLY TURNS ON WHILE I'M NOT IN THE TRUCK. WHILE DRIVING THE TRUCK THE POWER STEERING SEEMS TO FREEZE UP AND THE TRUCK PULLS HARD TO THE RIGHT. WHENEVER THE TRUCK IS TURNED ON THERE IS A LOUD HUMMING NOISE THAT COMES FROM UNDER THE HOOD.

REAR BRAKE LIGHTS AND TURN SIGNAL FAILURE. MY REAR BRAKE LIGHTS AND TURN SIGNALS INTERMITTENTLY STOP WORKING WITH OUT NOTICE. I HAVE REPLACED THE BULBS MANY TIMES ONLY TO FIND OUT THAT THEY ARE NOT BAD. THEY WILL STOP WORKING ONE SIDE AT A TIME AND SOME TIMES BOTH STOP WORKING AT THE SAME TIME. THIS LEAVES YOU NO INDICATION THAT YOU HAVE NO BRAKE LIGHTS OR TURN SIGNALS WORKING. I HAVE NOTICED THAT SOME TIMES WHEN I TURN ON MY TURN SIGNALS, ONE SIDE WILL FLASH FAST THAN THE OTHER, AT ABOUT TWICE THE RATE AS NORMAL. I WAS IN A LEFT TURN LANE WAITING TO TURN WITH TURN SIGNAL ON AND STARTED TO SMELL ELECTRICAL BURNING SMELL OR ELECTRICAL SMOKE. THIS IS WHEN I DECIDED TO LOOK FURTHER INTO THIS MATTER. I HAVE DISCOVERED OTHER COMPLAINTS WITH 2011 F350 HAVING THE SAME TROUBLE AND THEY HAVE GOTTEN A RECALL TO REPLACE THE BODY CONTROL MODULE SO IT DOESN'T SHORT OUT AND CAUSE ELECTRICAL FIRES. BUT MY 2012 F350 THERE IS NO RECALL FOR THE EXACT SAME SYMPTOMS. I HAVE CALLED THE DEALERSHIP MANY TIMES TO COMPLAIN WITH NO SOLUTION. MY TRUCK WAS BUILD IN 10/11 AND ONLY HAS 37000 MILES. I HAVE BEEN HAVING THIS ISSUE FOR AT LEAST 7-8000 MILES. I GUESS ITS GOING TO TAKE AN ACCIDENT OR FIRE TO GET FORD TO CORRECT THIS DEFECT. *TR

AS I WAS TOWING A TRAILER IN THE 2012 FORD F-350 ON A TWO-LANE HIGHWAY (US-95 NORTH OF LAS VEGAS), THE TRUCK SUDDENLY CHIMED AND SAID TO PULL OVER AND SHUTTING DOWN. IT SHUT OFF BEFORE I COULD REACT. I HAD ENOUGH MOMENTUM TO CLEAR A BRIDGE AND PULL OVER WHILE COASTING. THE STRETCH OF ROAD THAT I WAS ON IS DESOLATE AND USED BY BIG RIGS ALL THE TIME. LUCKILY, THERE WAS LITTLE TRAFFIC AT THE TIME OF THE INCIDENT, BUT IT COULD HAVE CAUSED AN ACCIDENT DUE TO THE POWERING OFF OF THE VEHICLE. I HAD NO POWER STEERING OR POWER BRAKES. I CHECKED THE CODE AND FOUND THAT ONE OF THE EGT SENSORS WAS BAD. DUE TO BEING AN INFORMED OWNER, I KNEW THAT THESE TRUCKS HAVE HAD EGT SENSOR ISSUES AND I HAD PURCHASED 2 FOR BACKUP PURPOSES. I WAITED A WHILE FOR THE TRUCK TO COOL DOWN, REPLACED THE FAILED SENSOR. I CLEARED THE CODES AND THE TRUCK STARTED UP WITHOUT ANY ISSUES. I WAS ABLE TO CONTINUE MY JOURNEY. THE REPLACEMENT SENSOR LASTED LONG ENOUGH TO TRADE IN THE TRUCK IN ON NOVEMBER 2014. *TR
