I have a 2006 f250 diesel, superduty, supercab, long bed, 4x4. On the right rear tire area, the emergency brake line loops down below the undercarriage of the vehicle. On the left side it loops up. On all Ford trucks that I have seen, with the exception of the 2006, both sides loop up. This is a 4x4 truck. I believe that it is unsafe to have the emergency brake line loop down, as the lowest point on the vehicle, on a truck that will be used off road. This truck is used on a ranch and for trailering horses, so the possibility of driving over branches and rocks that could catch on the emergency brake line is high. In this downward position, it is likely to break if it hits a rock or branches. I have requested the dealer and Ford corporate to fix it, but they have informed me that they cannot modify the vehicle design. I have photos that I can send, but I do not see where to attach on this contact form. I believe that the emergency brake line should be adjusted to loop up to be in a safer position and not be the lowest point, hanging below the undercarriage of the vehicle.

I own a Ford f250, my complaint is about a 7 pin trailer plug, what happens is that the plug falls off the connector as I am driving. I have noticed that Ford changed there design on the plug, they turned it to the right so the lock is side, instead of being on the top. I have try to talk to Ford about this and they say there's nothing they can do. I do believe that this is a safety issue, I loose my brakes to my trailer everytime this happens making it very unsafe to drive.

When towing trailer with 2007 Ford f250sd, truck sways almost uncontrollably at highway speeds. Never had this problem towing same trailer with former vehicle.

Hooked same trailer to new '08 f250sd at dealer and test drove with no sway. . . Put back on my truck and I'm all over road. Just waiting for something more severe to happen. . .

In the 2008 Ford super duty pickup (all body styles) the driver and all passengers except the center seat are approximately 50% in the crush zone in the case of a side crash. This renders these consumers very likely to experience severe head and chest trauma, or more likely death in the case of a side crash. This was discovered no later than 13 months before being released into the public, but the program level managers in the company continued and eventually launched a vehicle with a known risk of fatalities. The design is being changed in 2010 to prevent detection by new fmvss testing on light trucks. (side pole) the tread act was designed to ensure accountability for recklessly endangering the health and safety of consumers by requiring auto companies to immediately notify NHTSA as soon as a danger is discovered. In the case of the 2008 super duty f series, the side impact danger was a known risk long before the vehicle was introduced to the public, and the company controls were used to protect the design from scrutiny, thus endangering lives. Given the planned volume of 400,000 per year, this design flaw merits the maximum $15,000,000 fine for this violation. The philosophy of my superiors was that Ford's only responsibility is to pass government testing, similar to the approach regarding the firestone/explorers risk of rollover.
