Oasis Report

I know Im new here, but was wondering if someone would be kind enough to pull an Oasis for me on this VIN: 1FTSW21P85EA00613

Considering the purchase of this vehicle before trhe end of January. Any help would be greatly appreciated. It has engine surge on the highway at steady throttle. Other than that it runs and drives great.

Hopefully one of our techs will see this soon and have an answer for you.

Is this truck at a Ford dealer, private seller, or used car lot?

Unless there have been unresolved issues with this truck...they should be happy to provide you with this report as well. If not.....run.

Do all dealerships use the OASIS program? I am looking at a truck at a dodge dealership, will they be able to get an OASIS for me? If not could someone run this VIN for me: 1FTWW31P55EC55260.

Thanks

OASIS is Ford specific. Dodge would have theie own version...Chevy theirs...etc. Typically, a Dodge dealership would not have access to Ford's service / warranty database.

Oh, thank you. What are your thoughts on buying a Ford from a Dodge dealership?

If it's a good truck and the price is right it wouldn't matter where you buy it. Wouldn't let them provide service on it though.

Thanks BowTieHatr! I dont know much about diesels, is it common to replace head gaskets? Or is it from overheating like in a gas motor? If its the same as a gas motor, blown head gaskets can cause a lot of other issues too.
