October 2000 check engine light on immediately after refueling. Occured on Saturday, checked owners manual, "ok to drive, have dealer check". took truck to town East Ford Monday, Ford charged approx. $279 and hertz approx. 70 for rental. Ford stated "someone disconnected your maf sensor". that is not true! also they did not cover under warrenty bumper to bumper or extended or rental vehicle. I think sensor disconnected self if that is what indeed happened. Approx 1 yr. Ago the blinkers, air conditioner would not work at random. Don't know if brake lights or blinkers were visibly working from outside truck because it would happen while driving. Returned to Ford. Said can fix it if cant find it, are you sure you didn't hit a bump, bring it back if/when it happens again. Returned again because problem continued. Had to get ugly with the service people. I told Ford to keep it, drive it until the problem is found. They did and said there was a loose connection under dash. Warranty covered. I know this truck is unpredictable now. I would also like to report that in March 2000 my 33 yr old brother was killed while on the job for S&P utilities, I believe now that the truck may have stalled on the railroad track he was killed on because he had often complained about the F150 1998 bogging down and stalling. I also think now S&P is aware since they had people obtain all of the missing parts from the truck as soon as they could. His name is john cloud jr of mesquite Texas. He left 3 kids and wife.

Engine has knock at cold start up and goes away after engine warms up. I had contacted the original dealer in ca. Whenthis started over a year ago and they said they could not find anything wrong. I have contacted a Ford dealer hear in atlanta and they say they have no bulletins offer any reason or any other complaints. I have talk with a few of the workers at the atlanta Ford plant and one of them have the same make, year, model and engine as I do. He stated that the plant in Kansas and windsor in Canada have said that thier was a problem with the heads on this engine. Why is it that I can find out this information and the dealers do not have anything on this. I like my truck and wish to fix the problem, but can't get an answer from Ford. If you can give me any help I would appreciate it.
