I have had rough idle problems since I bought the truck new. This was the first diesel vehicle I have ever owned so in the beginning I thought it was normal, but it kept getting worse. I purchased the truck in April 2003. I have had hard shifting since I bought it. When I back the truck up and then shift into drive it will slam into gear as a vehicle with no transmission fluid reacts. There was a dangerous hesitation when crossing traffic and sometimes the truck would have a 3-5 second stall. It has blown white smoke more recently and would not kick down into passing gear on the freeway. I have had the truck in for service several times and the last time they told me that they had no fix at that time. I just got off the phone with a customer service manager and she tells me that the fix will raise the noise level up 5 decibels. This will make the truck louder than it was when it was sold to me. I purchased this truck because of the power and how quiet it was. Now it will get louder? I requested that Ford buy the vehicle back and they want to fix the problem first! even though it will be louder. This is not acceptable but I have no choice. I have my receipts but didn't find out how much the repairs have cost all together, but Ford has not charged me anything. . . Yet.
