FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE:DELIVERY:FUEL PUMP
REAR FUEL PUMP OVERFILLS THE FRONT FUEL TANK. MY MECHANIC INSTALLED AFTERMARKET FUEL PUMP AND PROBLEM REOCCURRED. HE THEN INSTALLED BOTH FRONT AND REAR FUEL PUMPS BOUGHT FROM FORD DEALERSHIP FOR MORE MONEY THEN I CARE TO ADMIT, SYSTEM WORKED GOOD FOR TWO MONTHES THE OVERFILLED FRONT TANK AGAIN. MY MECHANIC STATED THAT FORD HAD RECALLED THE FUEL TRANFER VALVE . HOWEVER THE DEALER SAYS THEY HAVE NOT ??? AT THIS TIME I DON'T DARE DRIVE THE TRUCK WIH ANY GAS IN THE FRONT TANK. *AK

I HAVE HAD THE BACK LIGHT RESEALED TWICE ALREADY, STILL LEAKS...HAVE HEARD IT IS A CRACKED WINDOW FRAME, A DESIGN FLAW AND SOME HAVE HAD THE DEALER REPLACE WITH A NEW WINDOW. MINE BECAUSE OUT OF WARRANTY IS MY PROBLEM. I HAD IT FIXED ONCE UNDER WARRANTY, BUT THE PROBLEM STILL EXISTS AND SIDNEY FORD DOESN'T WANT TO DO ANYTHING ABOUT IT....POOR CUSTOMER SERVICE AND WARRANTY SERVICE!!!
