I was driving on freeway when a car that was traveling in an excess of 80+ miles and rear-ended my 2002 Ford F 150. My truck was totaled and my drivers seat back frame broke from right side and none of my airbags deployed. I ended up in the hospital for 3 days. I had a concussion, neck injury, knees and re-injured my back. I was lucky to be alive.

Frame has rusted to the extent that the bed has dropped and is about to fall off. When I was replacing the fuel tank, which had rusted through, I discovered that the entire frame has holes and cracks from rust.I have now been hearing that this problem has been reported by many, but no answer or recalls from Ford. Why do these trucks rust so badly. Is there no recourse for those of us who have a truck that falls apart?

Two issues: 1] both rear doors in the extended cab (swing counterclockwise) door latches jammed preventing exiting or entry. If egress was needed quickly, it was not there. The cost to repair each was about $450. (locked up while driving) 2]speed control does not work - Ford says it is a malfunctioning control that cost about $500 to replace. (when vehicle is in operation)

My truck frame has rusted through just behind the right rear wheel! this is a 2002 Ford F150 supercab that has only 75500 miles on it. The frame broke just after I left the interstate and drove to my son's house. I inspected the truck and saw the break in the frame as I described. A picture is attached. I was lucky not to have wrecked on the interstate! what is going on with Ford that the chassis rusts through like this!!! what is going on with Ford?

I own two Ford super cabs and both trucks the back passenger doors froze shut. On one I paid over $500 for the parts and then had a mechanic repair the doors and I was told that this would last for approximately five years. On the one I listed above I went on you tube and they have videos how to fix the problem. They say that all Ford truck super cabs, I.e. F150, F250, and F350 the rear doors will eventually freeze up. This is a very serious safety hazard for the back seat passenger. The problem is that they used a plastic connector for the terminal of the release cable instead of one made of metal. The plastic deteriorates in the heat which does not allow the cable to pull the release mechanism far enough.

While backing into my truck started making a load noise, it was obvious it was in the front end. Trying to turn the steering wheel, it was stuck. Stopped the truck, looked under the front of truck at steering, I noticed that there was a hole in the frame, it was then that I saw the steering link, against the right cv axle. The idler arm had some how ripped off the frame, leaving na hole where the idler arm was, the frame of the truck had weakened, causing the metal to weaken and separate, thank again Ford.

I have a 2002 F 150 and the bed support rails and bed floor are completely rusted away as well as the frame rails. I am afraid the bed will come off at highway speed and cause a wreck. Ford has got to know there is a problem why are they not addressing it" I know several people with the same style truck with the same problem, I bought a pickup truck to use as a truck and now I am afraid to because who knows what will fall off the truck due to all of the rust. Toyota had a major recall because of this same issue, why does the government not make Ford do the same thing??" I have had pickups in the past that were a lot older that did not rust like this. Make Ford fix the problem before a bed flies off and causes at minimum a wreck at worst a death.

We have been hearing a clicking or tapping sound from the 2002 F150 pickup for about a month. After two complete inspections of the suspension and steering we did not find any problem. Today while rocking the pickup, we discovered the drivers side of the bed is loose. There is at least a 1/16" of vertical movement. At this point we check our 2003 F150 pickup, the passenger side of the bed is loose. I contacted the local Ford dealership (hillard auto) regarding a recall. They indicate that there is no recall. They also indicate that they have never heard of this problem before, that I find hard to believe since I own two F150S and they both have the same problem. This is all fine until one of these trucks has the bed come loose while traveling at speed on the highway. Was there a crash today? no, we caught the problem in time. To correct the problem, we will pull the plastic bed liner and tighten the bolts ourselves since I am opposed to paying someone to correct their mistakes and lack of quality control.
