Ford motor company has had a known issue with the truck frames cracking on the F-550 chassis. They acknowledged it by doing a recall, which either replaced or repaired the chassis frame or installed reinforcement braces if no cracks were visible. The recall expired in September of 2023. In October 2023 we noticed a crack on the frame just outside the recall reinforcement brace that Ford-certified technicians installed. We found another in November (reinforcement brace installed) and another in January (with Ford's new and improved frame produced due to a recall issue). Ford has denied making the repairs since the original warranty expired, even though this was the same related issue. We have been dealing with Ford motor company since October in hopes of resolving the issue but they continue to give us any resolution. The problem has not only caused a burden on our workforce but also caused great safety concerns. With Ford avoiding responsibility, they are allowing trucks to operate daily on our highway system, which becomes a safety concern for not only the driver but for many other motorists. The problem existed, but the issue was not resolved, all we are asking is that they take responsibility for making the repairs and permanently resolving the issue for the safety of all motorists.

Gas pedal & brake pedal are to close I have a 2006 Ford 500 being on a police dept and reading the news paper and radio you will hear where people have trouble hitting the gas pedal and not the brake pedal. After getting rid of my older Ford pick up and Ford crown vic I had no problem with, I bought a new 2006 Ford 500. Then I found out that when I wear walking shoes, and move my foot from the gas pedal to the brake, it was caught under the brake pedal and gas pedal, and to move it you will hit the gas pedal and the car will move before you can hit the brake again. I have talked to other people with different make of cars also who said they had the same problem with their car while wearing summer sandals and my shoes type. It seems that this may be one reason why you hear so much of this happening to people now days, and that is, the gas & brake pedal are to close to one another.
