6.7 Shaking just after "Cleaning Exhaust Filter" light

[AirMedic84]

Just wanted to get some information. It happened the other day too but I was driving home from work on wet road at 330 AM. The "Cleaning Exhaust Filter" light lit up as usual but them the truck started shaking at about 70 mph. It's a 2014 with 3700-3800 miles on it. There have been no trouble codes have popped up. When it happened the first time I was driving in stop and go traffic so I thought that was causing an issue while trying to clean the dpf. Any thoughts? Thank you in advance.

I would just bring it to the dealer. If for no other reason, to have the issue documented so if you have more issues, they may do more for you.

That is an older TSB...I dont have the newest one, but Im sure it would say 2011-2014 Super Duty instead of just 2011-2013s.

I never understood why techs would say that. They don't get paid to test drive vehicles. When I was still at a dealership if there was a TSB for a customer concern it got done whether I could duplicate it or not. OP keep taking it in and hopefully they'll get it figured out.

Dealer didn't want to hear about any TSB because they couldn't reproduce the complaint.

I would be looking at a different dealer then. The TSB is there to help them. In that particular TSB, it does not tell them they have to feel the shaking in order for them to go forward with the repair. Its a very straight forward TSB. Tell them to read it or take your business elsewhere. Good luck OP!!

imagine that... that is happening more and more.. find another dealer or search all the dealers and start taking it to each one till they say ok.. I have a left rear bent axle/hub/spindle and the dealership I took it to says the same thing. I even set up a jig with a straight edge and you can hear it rub due to it being out of wack but they say they cant see it on the videos I posted on youtube. I told them to just close their eyes and listen to it.. no need to see it.... no common sense I guess...

live life full throttle

This! Good luck man, nothing worse than a dealer who don't want to help you.

I'm on my way to pick up the truck. They didn't end up doing anything except driving it around. Hopefully one of the other 2 dealers will do something. Thanks for the help.
