2011 Ford E-250 Complaints

THE PCM AT 34,000 MILES CAUSED TWO FUEL PUMPS TO BURN OUT IN 4 DAYS. A "WRENCH" WARNING SYMBOL APPEARED ON THE DASH AND THE VANS ENGINE DIES WHILE GOING AT HIGH SPEED (WE PULL A PRESSURE WASHING TRAILER HOLDING WITH HAZARDOUS CHEMICALS & WATER). IF IT WAS RAINING OR EVEN HEAVY TRAFFIC THIS COULD CAUSE A DANGEROUS LIFE THREATENING CRASH. ON WET ROADS THESE HEAVY COMMERCIAL VEHICLES CAN EASILY HYDRO-PLAIN WHEN THIS OCCURS PUTTING THE DRIVER & OTHERS IN DANGER WHO MAY BE IN THE PATH.

MY STEP FATHER IS 84 YEARS OLD WHO OWNS THIS VEHICLE AND HE IS A RETIRED NAVY CAPTAIN OF OVER 25 YEARS. HE AND I ARE BOTH CONCERNED THAT THIS VEHICLE IS TOO DANGEROUS TO DRIVE AT HIGH SPEEDS (60-70MPH) WITH THE LOADS WE CARRY IN OUR EVERY DAY SERVICE SCHEDULE.

A SHORT WHILE AFTER OWNING THE VEHICLE, THE BRAKE LIGHT BULBS BURNT OUT. I'VE HAD TO REPLACE ALL THE BRAKE LIGHT BULBS APPROXIMATELY EVERY 3 MONTHS OR SO. AFTER A FEW BULB REPLACEMENTS I NOTICED THE SOCKETS THAT HOLD THE BULB STARTING TO LOOK BURNT.
