I have a 1999 Ford F350. I have the brakes worked on 4 separate times in the 5 years since the truck from my father in law. The front start to shake very hard and final slows down. I have had the rotors replace the calipers replaced and the rotors turned. I have only put 60,000 miles on this truck and my father in law had put 160,000. He was having the same problem with the brakes. I have taken it to the dealer each time and they say it is hard driving. I have not been pulling any trailers with it and the brakes usually start shaking within a couple thousand miles of the brake job.
ABS failure on a Ford 1999 F-150. I have had the ABS fail twice and this time it has been in the Ford dealers shop for over 30 days. It is at morristown Ford in morristown, tn.37814. Each time my brakes have failed and almost caused a serious accident. This time this repair was not at my fault, service writer stated it had moisture in the module and needs to be replaced? morristown replaced this module in Aug. 2007, I feel I was sold a defective part and now the ABS module needs to be replaced at a cost of over $600. I feel Ford should be responsible for this repair since the part that was replace must have been defective since service writer told me it was missing grease that should have prevented moisture. Please help!
Steering froze while making a left turn. Could not straighten steering wheel. This caused consumer to hit another auto's door head on. Also the brakes did not work, lost complete braking power.
