2015 F250 check engine light

Bought a brand new F250 6.7 it has 7000 miles in it now and the check engine light comes on and the truck goes into limp mode. I have taken it in to the dealership twice they said there is no code they can find and they just reset the check engine light and it does ok for a bit then starts the cycle all over again. It also is only getting about 6.5 mpg anyone experienced anything like this?

Is the truck in limp mode when you bring it in? I bet you have bad egt sensor.

There will be a code.


My story for my 2008 was very similar. I had a bad TCM. Started at 600 miles on the odo.


Took a few trips for them to figure it out.


I think I would try another dealer with a certified tech for the 6.7.

Take it to another dealer. Every check engine light sets a code. These guys are stupid.
Make sure its in limp mode when you go in. Don't reset the light for them.

Let's get this in the hands of your regional customer service manager, CommuterAir. Send me a private message (PM) with your full name, best daytime phone number, VIN, current mileage, and servicing dealership; I'll do the rest.
