Diesel fuel system on other F-250 Super Duty years
Report counts are for each model year on its own, so a newer car has had less time to collect them. Model years with too few reports of it for a sheet: 2014, 2015, 2016, 2017, 2018, 2019, 2022.
What this problem usually is
Diesel fuel system complaints have a pattern of their own. Many are waiting on a recall part that isn't available yet. Others describe the truck stalling or losing power, a fuel smell in the cab, trouble right after refueling, or a diesel particulate filter that keeps clogging. Injector replacement comes up often.
What got replaced
Owners who name the part that was replaced mention the fuel pump (16 reports) and the fuel injector (3 reports).

Should you keep driving it?
This page can't tell you that. 0 of 36 reports involved a crash. Owners who file are the ones who had a bad experience, and nobody checks their reports. If the problem affects steering, braking, power or a fire risk, treat it as a safety fault and have it inspected before a long or high-speed drive.
