1 Tank Assembly problem

Failure Date: 04/10/2009

2004 f550 trucks have the inside gas tanks pain or linen, peeling or delaminating. This cause the motor to stall. Because all the little pieces of paint going to the injectors. For 3 years (2009-2010 and 2011) in a row, we need to fix the problem ourselves costing us $3,500 every time -this year is the same problem. Last year I call Ford motor CO, and they told me that were not enough complaints to make a recall. But if you check goggle. Com and go to 2004 f550 complaint's page you will see hundreds and hundreds of complaints. We bought the truck on Dec 2004 and paid for it $56,000- dollars, was not a cheap truck. Also, I were talking to a lot of f550's owners ( most of them landscapers)and they had or have the same problem. So. . . . . . . . . . Ford CO is washing the hands, and not doing a recall on this.
