problem #1

Feb 241999

F-250 4WD Diesel

  • miles
The front springs on this heavy duty truck began collapsing after approximately 14-months of service. The condition wears the front tires excessively and does not make the vehicle handle properly. The condition was brought to the attention of the dealership, don vance Ford, marshfield, mo. And all that has been achieved is trips to the dealership and discussions with Ford customer assistance. I have looked at several F250 vehicles with the 7.3 L and 460 motor packages and they are experiencing the same problem as I have. Ford has obviously recognized the problem I am experiencing as the twin I-beam is no longer available on the 1999 model F250's.
