1 Suspension problem

Failure Date: 06/13/2012

My Ford f 150 frame and spring holders are rusting bad, I'm afraid the springs may fall off or the frame may break while I'm driving. It's just a matter of time before this happens. The body of the truck has no rust, I'm the original owner and only have 62,000 miles on it. Just wondering it other people are having the same problem im having with my frame and what my opptions are.

2 Suspension problem

Failure Date: 09/06/2004

The vehicle shook to the point that it became hard to control it. Consumer took the vehicle to the dealer on five occasions, and dealer stated there was nothing that they could do to repair the vehicle. Manufacturer offered consumer additional warranty.

3 Suspension problem

Consumer states that vehicle makes a very loud "whining" noise when driving. Sounds as if driving an 18-wheeler truck. The truck has been serviced by dealer several times, but they have been unable to diagnose or correct problem.
