Two problems related to engine belts and pulleys have been reported for the 2000 Ford F-250. The most recently reported issues are listed below.
While driving 70 mph, without warning the vehicle stalled. The driver tried to restart the vehicle but was unsuccessful. The driver was able to coast the vehicle to side of the road. The driver had the vehicle towed to the dealer for inspection. The mechanic replaced the pulley belt because it had worn. Please fill in additional information.
I was driving home on the interstate when traffic stopped ahead of me. It was raining pretty hard and I was not able to stop and I hit a minivan that was in front of me. (there were 40 - 50 other vehicles involved in this incident, but my piece of the greater wreck only involved myself and the minivan. ) I do not know how fast I was going when I made contact, but it was fast enough to cause $16,000 of damage to the front end of my truck. The impact mostly went above the bumper, pushing the grill into the front of the engine causing everyhing in front of the engine to be replaced along with replacement of the motor and transmission mounts. Neither the driver or passanger airbag deployed. I was wearing my seatbelt, so I was not at all injured, but I was very surprised that a significant inpact like I experienced did not set off the airbag. Are there any general guidelines for when the airbags should deploy?.
