problem #2

2009Apr 01

F-150 Supercab 4x4 V8

  • Automatic transmission
  • 48,000 miles

I have replaced the same two things that #2 did without a warranty and it cost me a bundle. Now I am about to try to vacuum lines, and I don't know how much it is going to cost me. I am on SSD on a fixed income. I think this should be a factory recall, or a lawsuit. The truck only has 48,000 miles. I have owned other Ford F-150's with over 150,000 miles on them and never had this problem before This is the most I had ever paid for a 2004 F-150 4x4 Supercab; $19,000, and I think having these problems in a short time is a real joke. I am seriously thinking about going back to Chevy products. I had been a Chevy man for 15 years till Ford got better with their products, and I switched to Ford the last 10 years. Please email me if anyone can help me or not with a update on this truck because I can't afford to buy another truck on ssd. Email me at versaliteone@yahoo.com.

Thank You

problem #1

2007May 16

(reported on)

F-150 XL 4.2L V-8

  • Automatic transmission
  • 64,000 miles

Started noticing clicking noise on both front hubs when in 2wd. noise went away in 4wd. Found vacuum bleeding off to both hubs , therefore the truck was trying to engage 4wd. found that the vacuum solenoid in the engine area on the firewall , pass. side, was saturated with water. Water runs off the lower cowl right onto it. ruining it. Got the part from Ford , installed myself . problem was solved.
