Ford F-Super Duty

Hood flew up and Brakes locked up when I tried to stop causing me to slide sideways unable to control it and flipped four times and the air bags never came out and truck was totaled.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 1993 FORD RANGER PICKUP EQUIPPED WITH FIRESTONE FR480, SIZE: 215/70/R14. WHILE DRIVING 25 MPH, THE FRONT DRIVER'S SIDE TIRE BLEW OUT AND THE TREAD SEPARATED FROM THE TIRE. THE CONTACT WAS ABLE TO PULL THE VEHICLE OVER TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD. THE DEALER AND MANUFACTURER WERE NOT CONTACTED. THE TIRE AND VEHICLE FAILURE MILEAGE WERE UNKNOWN. THE VIN WAS INVALID.

NY CRASH W/ 20 DEAD. MY 2000 FORD PICKUP HAD 2 BRAKE LINE FAILURES SO FAR. INSPECTION SHOWS 1 MORE SOON. LAST 3-4 INCHES OF BRAKE LINE COMING OUT OF CHASSIS NOT PROTECTED BY A HARNESS AND EXTREMELY CORRODED. ME LUCKY FAILURES WERE IN DRIVEWAY. FWD TO NY POLICE.

AFTER DRIVING OVER ROAD IMPERFECTIONS (E.G. BUMPS, POT HOLES, DIPS, ETC.) AT SPEEDS ABOUT 40MPH OR ABOVE, THE FRONT OF THE TRUCK SHAKES VERY VIOLENTLY, AND THE STEERING WHEEL MOVES QUICKLY AND STRONGLY, ALTERNATING RAPIDLY BETWEEN CLOCKWISE AND COUNTER-CLOCKWISE MOVEMENTS. IT IS DIFFICULT TO MAINTAIN CONTROL OF THE TRUCK; CONTROL CAN ONLY BE REGAINED AFTER SLOWING THE VEHICLE TO BELOW ABOUT 35 MILES PER HOUR, WHICH IS WELL BELOW ACCEPTABLE SPEEDS ON AN EXPRESSWAY. THIS IS NOT A ONE-TIME…

THOR MOTORCOACH. CONSUMER WRITES IN REGARDS TO KIDDIE PORTABLE FIRE EXTINGUISHER SAFETY RECALL. *LD THE CONSUMER STATED THE VEHICLE WAS SOLD TO AN UNKNOWN PERSON(S);THEREFORE, THEY DID NOT RECEIVE THE RECALL NOTICE. *JS

THIS TRUCK HAS EXPERIENCED SHIMMY, AKA DEATH WOBBLE, SINCE NEW. I HAVE HAD NO SUSPENSION MODIFICATIONS AND NOT RUNNING ANYTHING OTHER THAN RECOMMENDED SIZE AND QUALITY OF TIRE. WHEN CRUISING AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS AND YOU HIT A BUMP THE TRUCK HOPS AND SHAKES IN A DANGEROUS WAY. I HAVE ONLY GOTTEN LETTERS FROM FORD SAYING TO USE THE CORRECT TIRES AND PSI RATING. WHICH I HAVE AND IT STILL HAPPENS.

PURCHASED 6 TOYO HT OPEN COUNTRY TIRES. 4 OF THE 6 HAVE SEPERATED

MY F250 WHEN I WAS EXITING FOOT ON BRAKE TO SLOW DOWN THE STEERING WHEEL LOCKED UP AND ALMOST WENT OFF THE ROAD THIS IS NOT THE FIRST TIME IT HAS HAPPENED EVERYTIME I HIT THE BRAKE AND TRY TO TURN THE WHEEL LOCKS

ONE MORNING LEAVING MY DRIVEWAY, THE BRAKE PEDAL SANK TO THE FLOOR. THE STEEL BRAKE LINE HAD RUSTED THROUGH AT THE SITE WHERE IT WAS SUPPORTED BY A METAL CLIP ON THE FRAME. ONLINE FORA DESCRIBED THIS AS A KNOWN FLAW TO FORD FOR MANY YEARS BUT WHICH FORD REFUSES TO REPAIR. THE DEALER REFUSED MY REQUEST AND I HAD THE REPAIR DONE - POORLY - AT A TIRE SHOP FOR AROUND $300.

I NOTICED THE DRIVER SEAT BELT BUCKLE NOT COMPLETELY LATCHING AND BEING ABLE TO YANK THE BELT OUT OF THE BUCKLE. THERE WAS NOTHING STUCK IN THE BUCKLE, IT WAS JUST BROKEN. LOOKING ONLINE, I SAW A 2001 RECALL FOR WHAT LOOKS LIKE THE EXACT SAME BUCKLE, AND MANY COMPLAINTS ABOUT THESE BUCKLES BREAKING INTERNALLY. THE LOCAL DEALER (CAPITAL FORD IN HILLSBOROUGH) REFUSED TO REPLACE THE BUCKLE FOR FREE. IF THEY MADE THESE BUCKLES LIKE THE STEEL ONES ON AIRPLANES INSTEAD OF WITH CHEAP CRAP PLASTIC,…
