I heard on the radio about a possible upcoming recall on Ford f150 pickup trucks (1997-2001). This is in relation to gas tank straps getting rusty and breaking. I then decided to look under my truck which is a 2002 Ford f150 and discovered two gas tank straps completely rusted through/off with the tank no longer being supported by straps. The truck is only a 2002, but I think the problem goes beyond the 2001 trucks per the potential recall.
Truck was parked in hotel parking lot and caught fire.
2002 Ford f150, 4x4, 4 door. Was driving home from kansas city kansas to emporia kansas, lucky I was stopping by a friends house in lawrence KS. I was stopped @ a red light in downtown, when the light turned green I gave my truck gas, heard a pop, smealed gas & lumped to a safe place to stop. Ended up having to call a friend & rent a trailor to drag my truck home. Found out that it had "blowin" a "spark plud"! what the heck??? the consumer report book said nothing about this!!!!! after reading everyones stories, I am sure, Ford pays them off! not just the "best" truck in America!!! but the "world"!!! but no I listened to my husband. . . I myself am a mopar person. Ladies don't let them men pick your ride for ya. . . Hate to see you get stuck with a Ford like me. . Because we all know "Ford" is not going to address this problem for us. But don't give up hope there is a: "world's best Ford spark plug thread repait kit". Now don't we all feel "cozy". . . . . Haha (sorry guys, girls just pick better rides!) 1/6/2011.
The contact owns a 2002 Ford F-150. While idling for approximately three minutes, the vehicle stalled without warning. The vehicle was unable to be restarted. The contact is in the process of having the vehicle inspected to determine the cause of the failure. The failure and current mileages were 83,000.
2002 Ford F-150 supercrew bought new from rivertown Ford. Paint is blistering. Small pieces of "?" are showing everywhere on the vehicle. Ford says its too late and not their problem. Paint job "blistering" less than 5 years old. . . . . . Sounds like another late 80's - early 90's Ford paint problem again.
I was viewing property in another county. I left my wehicle parked on a ranch road in order to ride with the realtor. When I returned to my vehicle (2002 f150 super crew) it was engulfed in flames. I had a camera because I was taking pictures of the property, so I have pictures of the truck on fire as well as pictures after the fire dept. Put out the fire. All contents and the vehicle were destroyed, but there were no injuries to any people or other property. There was an off duty police officer at the site when I returned, but I didn't get his name. He called the fire department and told me there wasn't anything else I could do. The realtor, a friend, and I left to view more property. We returned to take more pictures after the fire department had left as well.
My husband was driving his Ford truck F-150 and suddenly crashed into a tree. He was seriously injury and still in the hospital he was in critical condition for two days and he will be disable for the rest of his life. The accident happened last week on March 4,2006.
The contact stated the cable holding the spare tire snapped. The tire bounced on the road. The vehicle was repaired. Updated 1/19/2006 - the consumer has the failed cable in his possession. There were no injuries and no damage.
The truck had a heating system failure. The door located in the heating unit (that opens and closes when the temperature is adjusted) became stuck in the open position which allowed only cold air to enter the air vent. The consumer had to turn off the heat system to prevent hyperthermia. As a result the defogger system couldn't be used which caused poor visibility. The dealership replaced the door and other components. The dealer also replaced the temperature potentiometer and actuator.
