My son was killed in his 2006 Ford 150 pickup truck driving 45 miles an hour. His truck apparently left the road with no signs of brakes being applied, flipped several times. The airbags never deployed. His insurance company was threatening me to release the truck from storage which I did. I have since regained my senses enough to search the web and see that there were many recalls on the brake lines of this make truck.

My 2006 Ford F-150 super cab pickup, 2X4, V-8 engine, has a major problem with the outside mirrors falling towards the ground causing me not to be able to pick up moving traffic while driving down the highway...I have taken the truck to three different Ford dealerships and they refuse to give me a trade-in on a truck with power mirrors...I have had (3) new sets of mirrors installed on this truck already since I purchased the truck in January 2006....I have had a restriction put on my drivers license stating that I must have a right hand mirror on all vehicles I drive due to having amblyopia in my right eye....can't see anything when my mirrors point down towards the ground...shouldn't' have to take a beating on the trade-in since I bought the truck in good faith believing that Ford would stand behind its warranty...they are not reimbursing me for the time or gas to take the truck in for repairs and I believe three sets of mirrors are enough....I want this to be documented in case that I have a minor or major accident that is involving a life because I couldn't see out of my mirror while changing a lane.....

Purchased a Ford 2006 F-150 4X4 so I could use it off road and through snow when necessary. Tried to have chains put on it as chp requires and was told this vehicle will not take chains due to the configuration of the brake lines. Was not told this up front when I purchased vehicle. Why buy a 4X4 if you can't use it in inclement weather? Ford does not seem to have a resolution for this problem
