Well, truck shut down with only 15k miles. Low fuel pressure warning then shut down 2 miles from dealership. Just had fuel filters and oil changed at 14.5k Towed and left for them to look at, **** you Friday the 13th! Time for a drink. Cheers to anybody having some hard luck today.

I hope it is an easy and cheap ( warranty?) fix.
That sucks and hopefully a quick fix! Today is my bday and it was actually a pretty damn good day!
It's gotta be something minor.
Damn good looking truck! I just got a 16 back in March. Only logged a couple thousand miles so far but really like the truck.
Keep us posted.

If I had to guess 1 of 2 things. Fuel filter change and airbound or primary filter lid not screwed on completely allowing system to aerate. Hope it's something that simple. Best of luck.

That sucks. Didn't put gas or DEF in the diesel tank did you?
Dealer will look at it tomorrow I'm assuming, no word yet. No, I didn't put gas in tank or anything like that. Doubt vandalism too as I live 30 miles from town on a lake. Nobody comes down our mile long dirt driveway, especially without being seen. Parked in my garage at night too.
Assuming it’s under warranty? If so don’t worry about it, let them fix it. All good
Truck is only a year old from new off the lot and I bought the extended warranty from Ford on it too. So, crossing fingers it's fixed no charge. First big vehicle purchase my wife and I have ever done. Paid off truck in three months.
You should be fine brotha, no worries.
Just relax and enjoy your weekend

I agree. If I'm reading correctly and you picked it up from the dealer after a ff change and made it two miles?

The way I read it. Truck has 15000 miles. Oil/ filters changed at 14500 miles.
Got a low fuel pressure warning, tried to get to dealer, truck shut down 2 miles away from dealer.

Bingo.
**Updated** Dealer called and said the fuel pump went out, all covered under warranty. I can pick it up today. Very interesting as I have always used Ford's Cetane additive since we got the truck mainly because I read that bosche cp4.2 pump has lubrication issues.
Hmmm. Has this been a very frequent issue on the 6.7's?
Glad all is resolved. Jeez - fuel pump crapping out at 15k? Yikes.
That's weird. Usually something with the fuel takes out the pump. Those things are very sensitive to any contamination.
