Last year my brakes failed on my Ford F-150 2006, fortunately I was close by the dealership I purchased the vehicle from. Last month my daughter was driving my truck and the rear wheels locked up on the same truck, almost causing her to go over a bridge, the rail stopped her. I just want to know if any others have had this same experience.

I got the truck January 06, 2006 from the dealership. I signed the paperwork and went home with the truck. The salesperson had told me that I was buying the truck. When they send me my first payment I realize that I was not buying the truck in reality I was leasing the truck. The salesperson completely just lied to me. As soon as I found out how I was lied to by the dealership I return the truck as soon as possible. Now how do they expect me to pay for the truck if I don't even have it.
