I have a noise problem and have been to several dealers, when you hold the accelerator steady it makes a very loud hissing noise, when you let off the gas or get on it heavy it goes away, the dealer has replaced the intake manifold and the catalytic converter, we have test driven with the service manager a identical truck and it does not make the noise and trucks at work that are equivalent don't make the noise as well, the service advisor said it is not right however when an engineer came in he could not identify the problem and deemed it a characteristic of the vehicle, it did not start making the noise until it had approximately 4 to 5,000 miles on it and has gradually been getting worse. Ford customer service says they are not going to do anything further with this issue.

About one week after I purchsed my truck I was stopping at stop sign, and my truck suddenly acclerated. This happens ocassoanally. It can happen once or twice a week or it can go a couple months without a incident. I had it to the dealer (zimmerman Ford in cedar rapids iowa) they reprogramed it and that did not fix the problem. I have told them many times that it was still occuring and they said if they could not duplicate the problem while they had it they could not do anything about it. I have been having thie problem for 18 mounths now. I came very close to having a accident 3 times and will not drive the truck anymore. It is not safe to drive. I called Ford motor company and they refered me back to the dealer, which has gotten me nowhere. I see where there have been 8 or more complaints on your websight with the same problem. My Ford dealer said they have a thing called oasis for dealers to report thease problems to Ford and there was not any complaints with this problem.
