problem #2

(reported on)

F-150 XLT 5.4L

  • Automatic transmission
  • 85,000 miles

The Dealer painted under the doors at time of purchase because of previous experience with 1999 F150. Primer was visible through white body color. All this did was postpone the inevitable to 5 yrs and 85K miles. Did not inform dealer out of warranty, in my opinion rust is UNREPAIRABLE, traded for GM Silverado. Thanks no more Fords please!

Ford refuses to cover, bed and all four doors need to be replaced. Rust is coming from the metal used to create these parts. Hunting for help resolving this issue. Ford has been no help at all.
