Has anyone else had success with a new fuel pump for this issue? My truck is going in for a few small items but I don’t want to fight with the dealer over this unless more people have confirmed this is a fix
I had my truck in there 3 times. Dealer can’t replicate the delayed start every time I’m there. They won’t replace the fuel pumps without the truck throwing a code or being able to hear it for themselves. My video of the delayed start isn’t good enough for them. Not sure where to go from here

Thanks this is what I was looking for. I guess I’ll wait until it doesn’t start or there’s a recall lol

For everyone still experiencing this issue push your dealer on replacing the fuel pump. Record video every time you start the truck. Use remote start so you can clearly capture it. I have a great dealer and they were probably the first to identify the fuel pump issue. Bottom line ford suppliers have sucked lately and this is just another example. Some fuel pumps good some bad. There may also be a tune issue but I think it’s mechanical.

That’s a bad dealer and there’s other dealers that have fixed it. All they need to do is look. Keep pushing and keep recording

So your issue is 100% resolved after a new pump?

This happened to me. Drove about 40 miles tank was pretty low so I stopped to get some gas. After filling the tank, it was slow to start. Drove another 40 miles to get home. As soon as I pulled in the driveway I shut the truck off and immediately restarted it and got the slow start. Then I shut it off and cranked it up again and it started right away no issue.

Seems like this should turn into an advisory sooner-or-later. I have it very occaionally, but not enough to go to dealer yet.
