| 2001 | VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL | MAY 19, 2011 AT AROUND 4:20 AM WE WERE AWAKEN BY OUR NEIGHBORS THAT OUR TRUCK WAS ON FIRE. OUR 2001 FORD F150 WAS ON FIRE, AN EXPLOSION HAD MADE A HUGE HOLE IN THE HOOD ON THE FRONT OF THE DRIVER SIDE. THE TRUCK HAD LAST BEEN DRIVEN THE MORNING OF MAY 17, 2011 AND HAD BEEN SITTING IN OUR DRIVEWAY SINCE THEN. THE FIREMEN SAID THE FIRE WAS DUE TO ELECTRICAL WIRING. WE ALWAYS KEPT UP WITH ALL REQUIRED MAINTENANCE. WE HAD NO IDEA OF THE PROBLEMS FORDS WERE HAVING, WE NOW ONLY HAVE ONE VEHICLE TO GET AROUND AND THE WORST PART IS THAT IT'S A 2004 FORD F250 WHICH COULD ALSO BE A RECALL VEHICLE. OUR INCOME IS VERY TIGHT BECAUSE MY MOTHER IS VERY SICK AND WE ARE SENDING MONEY FOR HER MEDICATION AND EXPENSES, WE HAVE NO WAY OF GETTING ANOTHER VEHICLE. OUR FORD F250 IS A DIESEL AND DIESEL FUEL IS VERY HIGH. SOMEONE PLEASE HELP! NOT SURE WHAT WE'RE SUPPOSE TO DO OR IF FORD WILL BE RESPONSIBLE. |
| 2013 | FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE | WHILE MAKING A LEFT HAND TURN ACROSS TRAFFIC I FLOORED THE GAS PEDAL AND ALL POWER WAS LOST ALMOST RESULTING IN A CRASH. THE NEXT TIME WAS ON THE HIGHWAY WHILE TRYING TO PASS ANOTHER VEHICLE TOTAL LOSS OF POWER. UNABLE TO PASS ALMOST REAR ENDED, LUCKILY ABLE TO GET OFF THE ROAD. TODAY NOVEMBER 3RD 2013 9:00 AM TRAVELING 40 MPH ON FLAT GROUND CLEAR SKY ABOUT 45 DEGREES I FLOORED IT AND THE TRUCK DID NOTHING IT DID SHAKE ALITTLE AND I KEPT MY FOOT TO THE FLOOR FOR ABOUT 1/2 A MILE AND IT NEVER REGAINED ANY POWER. THEN I SMELLED SOMETHING BURNING. NO CHECK ENGINE LIGHTS EVER CAME ON AND MY FUEL ECONOMY GET WORST EVERY DAY. THE TRUCK FEELS LIKE SOMETHING IS DRAGGING IT DOWN ALL THE TIME. POOR FUEL ECONOMY MIXED WITH UNRELIABILITY IS GOING TO EQUAL DISASTER. FORD IS LUCKY NO ONE HAS BEEN HURT OR KILLED YET.THE TRUCK WILL BE TOWED TO THE DEALER IN THE MORNING I SIMPLY WILL NOT RISK MY LIFE WHILE FORD SITS ON THERE THUMBS. FIX THE PROBLEM BEFORE SOMEONE IS HURT!!!! *TR |
