Buying a Cummins wont help. They have the same issues. Its not a manufacturer problem... Its an EPA problem...

There isn't a glitch in the emissions system. The emission system is the glitch.

Well in my opinion any epa related problems should be payed for by the epa.

My NOX sensor fell off of my 2018, I haven't had an issue in 100,000 miles.

I had the exact same problem with 2011. It progressively got worse. I finally deleted the DPF and it runs like a champ.

I am running commercial Hotshot in a 2019 , so I completely understand what you are saying about deleting and DOT . Best of luck , fortunately they didn't cry about the warranty because you didn't bring it in when it first happened .

Awesome vid. Being a contractor I know the feeling when you have truck problems. It does suck....even fixed you are going somewhere and it's on your mind....am I going to get back?..... That would have me starting to look at a dually too....good luck bud...punch through it.

I had a 2017 F250 King Ranch and I started having Def codes sporadically. The dealership replaced every component in the def system and reflashed the computer. It seemed to work for a while but then started losing cylinders and having other issues with the emissions system. The dealership said I must have been struck by lightning or had some sort of electrical shock but the more I read on forums regarding my trucks symptoms, it has come to my attention that 2017 to 2020 Powerstrokes are having a rise in emissions problems. This was strengthened by having 3 different certified Ford techs in our area all state that emissions problems are on the rise and Ford is deflecting as much as possible to prevent having to issue a recall after having to issue at least 5 recalls already on each of the F-series trucks. Some are easily fixed and others like mine seem to be a bottomless pit of shop time. I decided to trade in on a 2020 Ram 2500 and as a die hard Ford owner, I have to admit that I dont know if I would every go back at this time. Yes the Ford is faster, but I feel more in control of heavy loads with the Ram, the torque and exhaust brake hauling a 20k load is noticeably better regardless of numbers, and the interior is night and day. I have been so impressed, we traded my wifes 2018 F150 ecoboost on another Ram 2500 for her as well. Now we get 21-22 MPG on the highway on 35x12.50R20 Firestone MT2s stock compared to 17 in her half ton and 13 in my King Ranch, and have more luxury from a Laramie than we had in her Platinum or my King Ranch. I still love Ford, and hopefully they will up their overall game, but as of today, there is no comparison in my mind based on the pros and cons of each as to why I would have chosen differently. I was really reluctant to even sit in a Ram, but when I decided after my 3rd Powerstroke to give each of the big 3 a test, there was no looking back.

Having problems with a 25k used truck is do-able. But problems with a 100k truck is on a whole different level🤢. Get well soon platinum

Some parts need to fall off with the def

Dielectric grease or vaseline in all pigtail connectors in rust - rain belt of any type is good preventative maintenance. (Like here in FL)

In 2017 I bought my F350 dually for $56,000. No, its not the grey wheel work model. It had set on the lot for 6 months and they had to move it. After owning it for 3 years now pulling my camper, 18k dump trailer and car trailer there is no way I can go back to a SRW truck pulling 15,000LB stuff around. Ive never once had a white knuckle experience in the Dually. I get complements on that truck everywhere I go. I love it.

This is why i keep my old 01 F250 7.3 i dont like having mechanical problems there to expensive.. time is money.

Time to drive on one of those really rough roads and have the emissions fall off 😂😂

Came on to see what happened to your new truck because I know you tell the good and bad about your trucks..had to get rid of my F-150 because of major issues from new and went Ram and no major issues..keep truckin bro😁

Thank you for sharing video for my 2017 f350 truck I looked it up on ebay it shows $200 up to $250 for the pump that is not cheap but it's not that expensive to do the service by myself if it breaks one day👍

I've got to get my 2020 F450 to the dealership I've had to jump start it a couple of times. At night when you walk up to it the window control lights and air conditioning lights stay on. Now I have one battery red and one green.

I will say this that truck is your money maker and that truck is powerful so hopefully no other issues with come you way. Good luck bud.

DEF: Delete Emissions Fast!

People are making this out to be a ford thing but truthfully it’s a DEF thing... DEF shouldn’t be a thing and it’s best deleted

Look for water condensation in the connections. It happend to me with the def pump and heater plug

This is the reason I got rid of my 2016 ford F250 6.7 to many issues with my emissions and alot of recalls I had to take to the dealership to get fixed I just purchased a 2020 ford f250 7.3 gas engine I absolutely love this truck no issues with it diesel trucks are getting worse each year because they keep adding more and more emissions crap on these trucks

Fairley had a ton of duallys last week. The one you are talking about was a an xlt model. There was a nice iconic silver one and a few black ones.

@workplaytv I bought a 2020 F-350 RCLB 7.3 this fall and cant be happier. I was so so tempted to buy the diesel, but theres something to be said about the simplicity of a gasser. My trucks rated to Gooseneck pull a max of 20,600lbs. A SRW 350 4 door platinum with a 6 3/4 box like you have is only rated for 21,900 (unless you get a 11,400gvrw package then you get an extra 100 lbs lol) Thats a diffrerence of only 1300lbs...If youre already towing 20k, 1300lbs isnt going to make a hell of a difference. With our new CAT 420D weighing in at 15700lbs, im going to be hard pressed to find a trailer that weights only 5k to tow it. But just about any other peice of equipment we own can be pulled around no problem by the 7.3.

Def sensor went twice on my 2019 f350 less then 20k km on it. Definitely an issue

Good video, thanks for the info. My 2020 pulling great so far

The def reductant Heater from what I was told has crapped out on my 2016 f250 and they said it wasn’t covered under warranty due to it being an emissions issue which doesn’t make sense but regardless I’m done dealing with these limp mode bull crap issues and my tuner and straight pipe is on its way LOL

Had this same problem on 2012 model and it was a sensor but it was during a time I had been trying different brands def so on any of my newer trucks I stick with one brand def

You said it best - they ALL have problems! All you can do is choose a good dealer who can diagnose quickly, and a brand who stands behind their warranty without quibbling. My 2020 F350 PSD king ranch adaptive steering module started having issues after the first 700miles which progressively got worse with miles while on a cross country RV trip. It would throw an adaptive steering fault code then be extremely difficult to steer at low speed, but would only be present at cold start in the am. After warmup and restart, the fault would disappear. By 4000 miles, the fault stayed active full time. At 4500 miles they had to change out the whole steering assembly because it is not serviceable - guessing for safety reasons. But it only took them about 3 hours total to diagnose and replace one they had the replacement part avalable. That won't be cheap to fix if it happens again outside the waranty period! We all have different experiences, but in my view and region I can't find a RAM product and dealer who would stand behind their product even in warranty without some kind of run around. Tried once - never again... As class leading looks and interiors that those things have, its a shame how they treat their customers. That's why it will be a while before you might find one of those in my stable again. Totally different story if you have time and facility to work on those things yourself. Curious to know where the corroded connector was.... External to the DEF tank, or internal adjacent to the DEF pump. If its external, I would like more details on where to look for the corrosion.

My 2015 was the DEF heater. 2013 pump broke of in tank.

I had a check engine light for the emission system a month or two ago. I cleared it with my scanner and took the truck to the dealer. They did re flash of the PCM and everything has been good. Trans even shifts better now.

I am having the same issue with my 2020 F-350. Literally brought it home last week one night. Next morning. CEL. Dealer says they have to order a new DEF control unit. Can’t get it until late September. Sometimes the CEL light goes off. Has been off for the last day.

Had a New Duramax with less than 3K on the clock, had the same issue, slow down message and limp home mode after x number of miles, added "Fresh" DEF fluid and it cleared after about 30 miles. Truck had been on dealer lot for a while so I guess the DEF was bad. But this one seems have much more of an electronic issue.

Makes me glad I ordered the 7.3 instead. Emissions problems are a pain. Good luck.

There's a button you can get that aids the exhaust brake. It's called "Anchor Deploy" button.

I used to work at a GM dealer as a tech and DEF pump modules are an extremely common failure on the duramaxes too. We have got them down to an hour job though now!

Do you have the trailer TPMS option on your dash display? My 2020 f350 platinum doesn't, they are shipping wrong packages but the actual option on the dash isn't programmed on 2020s from what I understand

Get the Dulley! I absolutely love my 2020 F3 50 King Ranch. What a beast, it pulls my 16,000 pound fifth wheel travel trailer like a dream. Much more stable than my 2019 F3 50 single rear wheel.

Why is there still an engine light illuminated on the left side, RPM gauge?

Just watching your video and recognized the areas, and said this is in Nova Scotia. Then you mentioned Fairley and Stevens, then at 18:51 you drove through and we saw the silver dually that we just bought! Hopefully I don't have these troubles but being a Owner Operator with my transport, I know all about that DEF crap. Thanks for the video!

I tow heavy with my duramax often and haven’t had emission problems other than bad sensors. I hypothesis that these big Diesel engines have more severe emission problems when they are ran with little load and the fuel isn’t burn’t as clean.

This is a common issue with the 6.7s and maybe all diesels in the US. Dont worry. You have a great truck 💪🏼

Have a 5th gen Cummins. Egr valve fault code came up at 16k. Don’t switch, I’ll be going back to Ford next. All the epa equipment sucks, but it’s the price we pay for the power now. Enjoy it until everything runs on Duracell’s. Def pump malfunction could happen to anyone with a diesel, love the channel!

That sucks, buyer be ware! Ty for sharing 😁

Ford's got wiring issues. My 2019 Platinum had that tailgate recall. Now I've got an issue with my Multi-Contour seats intermittently not working (TSB 19-2293) which is yet another wiring issue. But as you said...they all have issues. It's just inexcusable when it happens on an 80k dollar truck IMO.

The dreaded P207F code. Once it goes into de-rate, it's impossible to get out without PIDS. I had this issue with my 2016...they replaced the entire DPF and the NOX sensor. It sucks! Good luck!

Wow unreal. Did u crack your windshield? Bringing back image's of the 2017

Blew transmission in my 20 with 2200km on it. Only code that popped up before I lost 2,3,4 7,8,9 was "contaminated DEF". Dealer said it was a wiring issue that put the told something internal to close in the transmission and cooked it with 8000kg in tow. Absolutely ZERO symptoms at all until I locked me out of nearly every gear. Took 25 days to get a new transmission to northern Ontario. Dealer in my home town in Northern Alberta said theyve heard of 5 so far that it's happened to with the exact same story but different severity's.

Emissions are the weak link. They are getting better...but still frustrating if you have an issue.

My 2020 F250 Lariat Tremor 6.7 diesel had a transmission (10 speed) failure after 650 miles. Ford is to replace the transmission but due to COVID there is very limited inventory. So I've been without the truck for 2 weeks and there is no ETA..

What’s your opinion of a cold air intake? Have you installed one on any of your trucks?

Still under warranty get it fixed, all manufacturers has issues with def so if you want to give up on ford it's up to you. Had a def issue with my 2017 f450 got it fixed no problem.

DEF Module Replaced on my 2020 Platinum yesterday... lasted about 4 hours and CEL came back on... back to square one.

First time commenter here, watched about 8hrs worth of your vids in the past 2 weeks, keep up the good work! I ordered my new 2020 platinum in black last week and pick it up tomorrow, needless to say I’m pretty stoked! Just sold my 14 platinum to upgrade and I’m guessing this is going to be a completely different animal. The only thing that kinda sucks is living here in Fort McMurray they just blend right in because they are a dime a dozen. Lol

Imagine this truck w/out a warranty 😂 Would be nice if someone would reimburse the down time of the truck since you use it for work.

It's good you got it fixed. You're lucky you know more about trucks than the average persone. For 100k they're all junk. I've had them all and plowed snow a lot. For me I've had my best luck with GM but I buy my trucks to keep and they have treated me the best. Hopefully your problems are over.

What amazes me with modern diesels and the billion sensors and million miles of wiring is that they're not broken every damn day !!

That’s not good man. I’m approaching 44,000km on my 2019 now and knock on wood I haven’t had any issues with my emissions system yet. The only issue with the truck so far is an adaptive steering malfunction which was traced to a module in the steering wheel going bad. I just finished putting 10k going back and forth between BC and Alberta the last couple weeks hauling 30,000-35,000lbs combined and the truck did really well other than being thirsty!

To my understanding, Engine brakes are not possible due to minimal valve clearance but you should be able to fit an exhaust brake.

Let me tell you I’m not having problems with the def But my screen every now and then keeps going black

My 2021 Dually F350 Has 22k towing trailers at least half the time and I've had ZERO issues with it. I also drive it like I stole it half of the time. As in, blasting up grades carrying a 12k loaded trailer doing 90 when nobody is around. I think these setups like a beat down to blow all that crap out of the emissions garbage regularly.

That’s what I hate about all the electronics in today’s vehicles something like a rodent chewing on a wire or a little crud in a connection can shut you down

What a nice home and property you got. Very home-y. I love the long drive way.

Hey @workplay can the ford dealer fix your speedometer if you go to a larger tire size ?

I’m from the same area. I see you driving around all the time, just found out you have a KZfaq channel! I haul around a 3.5 new holland with an old deleted duramax. Awesome to see some local content

Go down that 10k exaust and check for loose sensors or harness

Workplaytv i love watching your channel alot every day and every night u are awesome KZfaqr keep making awesome videos on your channel say safe and healthy with your family i hope this will get better soon 😀

Also, as to buying a RAM Cummins, my 2015 RAM 2500 has over 575,000 miles on it, and it is still running full emissions, and the major breakdowns on it have all been associated with the engine. Broken valve spring at 270K, water pump at 350K, had to replace all 6 injectors and high pressure pump at 400K, only emissions repair was a recalled SCR Cat and one NOx sensor. If it weren't for the bucks up mopar extended warranty, all those repairs would have been a total disaster. So, they all can have failures.

One thing I don't get is emission like we make the air cleaner to add all this stuff on. But then it adds weight to the truck that makes the engine works a little harder to move it so it uses a little more fuel and also how much unclean stuff do they create to make and deliver these things to places? To me it seems to be pointless other than to make you pay more in fuel and maintenance. They wonder why people do deletes.

Does anyone know if the 2020 f250/350s still have death wobble issues? I know 2019s do. Thx

I honestly think Ford has had and changed that power stroke how many times in ten years? Iv several HD trucks as I’m in landscape contracting. I’d say run a DuraMax with Allison or a new Ram...... I’m back in a Ram HD and it’s soo much improved! I hope things get better for ya! Love your channel FC

A/rod is the go 2 guy . for u

Unfortunately giving the dealer or service department the code does not help anything because they have to actually have the code on their ids system in order especially to process a warranty claim so it’s best just to not clear the codes take it in and let them deal with it specially if it’s under warranty

I bought a dually with 7.3 the diesels have gotten to complicated and to expensive to repair I,m getting on average 13 mpg towing dont need to worry about def problems and more

Thank god I clicked this so fast then I realized you one of those guys still running that truck killing bullshit instant relief never going to be my problem hahaha 😂 😅

bad DEF pump brand new & u hve to prime it when changing it out ck

windshield under recall?

I don’t know why you’d even bother with trying to figure all this out with a new truck with a warranty.

Cummins have the same issues plus the biggest problem is it's in a Dodge Delete it as soon as the warranty is up

Good luck man

Love the haircut!

Lol 76 for a base model diesel dual , back in 2000 38,000 for dual with lariat all options 40 -42,000

Purchased a 2020 f250 and the check engine light came gnat 22 miles. I was a nock sensor. I returned the truck and purchased a Ram

Get.u a banks data monster works fantastic and tons of resets and they do not come back unless something is wrong but ur parameters will show something good luck buddy I got GMC3500 Denali Dully PedalMonster and derringer and I’ll head up any stock delete truck with no turbo change fixing to get 69mm for biggirl but she’s in beast mode now unbelievable difference s&b intake to big change with it

Weird i have never seen that icon when mine ram gets low 🙊haha, gotta back ford on this but this is not a ford problem my ram has a emission recall on it also and well i fixed it my self haha

Get a tune and get rid of that emissions crap. You can add it back for smog.

Hey, it's a FORD. Unfortunately, I had 6 of them over the years with problems. Finally I realized FORD was not the answer. Purchased a Ram 3500 6.7 HO. Couldn't be more pleased. Awsome truck. Thanks, Benton

Nice sunglasses 🕶, what brand and style are they? Also nice TRUCK 👍🏽🥇😎

It's not an emissions issue, it was a component failure, it happens. It could just as easily been a fuel pump that failed or a water pump, power steering pump, etc. Had you taken the truck to the dealer when the fault first happened, then you wouldn't have had to screw with it so many times. Component failures happen, and not just to the emissions system components. If you don't want a truck with emissions, when they start building full electric trucks get one of them, no emissions on them.

Sorry to hear that I’m not a ford guy but I have a 2000 dodge diesel and an 05 dodge diesel. EPA is making these things as bad to own as gas cars and trucks. It’s all the epa and CARB which is the pusher for the epa

I was looking at buying a 2021 6.7. I loved my 2011. But will be going with the 7.3. No more diesel for me. To many problems. And to much $$$

Call the dealer tell them u have a business the truck is not working bec of emission and you need one of there courtesy truck free rental when can you bring it in

I drive a semi Wicked codes all the time you got a bad sensor

The 6.7 power stroke is such an awesome motor it’s too bad we have to run emissions on everything. Why can’t we just get a clean burn through tuning to make people happy

From a ford engine Dyno tech. When there is a code that has to do with your after treatment system you need to get it fixed ASAP. These systems are very clever. It’s not just telling you to go 80 clicks for no reason. It’s most likely not delivering the correct amount of DEF and the speed and load you are running. Which if you keep doing basically a PCM reset you are causing damage to the DPF and SCR. Just have the entire system removed,and the egr cooler as well . Down pipe muffler egr block off plates,and run a Mexico calibration it will run great

Did you do anything to the engine? If you put a tuner on it your going to have problems!

Just put a tune on it with a straight pipe and forget the def

Bad Fluid?

We have the same problem. Drunk Every Friday.

How’s the powerstroke on your 2020 n it all ok
