DRIVING ALONG A COUNTRY ROAD, STOPPED TO MAKE A TURN, THE FRONT PART OF THE DRIVE SHAFT ...MADE A LOUD POPPING SOUND AND LOUD THUD...AND DROPPED ON THE GROUND. HAD I BEEN RUNNING ALONG THE ROAD AT A DECENT SPEED, THIS COULD OF CAUSED A MAJOR ACCIDENT...
SAFETY ISSUE......

bought the f150 truck new &the first time we had snow i used the (4wd) & it made no difference & when I looked under the truck I could see the drive shaft was twisted off. had truck towed to nearest dealer only to have them say that I abused the truck &the warranty would not cover the cost of repair work & so it cost me app.$1800 before I got my truck back .........very hard for me to prove that I did not abuse the truck &very hard for them to prove that that I did but in the end it cost me in order to get my truck back.........so like they say fords really do suck.........don't they! (PS) truck only had(1700KMS) at the time this happened)
