- Huntington, NY, USA

Under warranty rotors machined and brake pads replaced. Second time, rotors machined and new Ford part number for pads replaced. Brake failure possibly responsible for accident with injury.

On 7/12/2000 I took the truck to the dealer because of severe vibration when braking from highway speed. At that time the dealer turned the rotors because they were warped. Now 6 months later the problem has re-occurred. Given the information I have found on the internet regarding simular problems from other owners, it can only be concluded that this is a design defect. However, at this time, both the manufacturer and dealer refuse to adequately address the problem.

6 alignments in 24,000 miles, a broken 14mm suspension bolt, a steering gearbox failure, 3 sets of brakes & rotor/caliper replacement indicates major design/material & quality problems. The vehicle has also left me stranded 5 times for other not listed engine related failures. Ford customer relations is useless, could care less & is non-supportive.

At about every 7000 mile increments my brakes begin to exhibit "brake shudder" a vibration that occurs when the brakes are applied. Not until I was able to obtain a technical service bulliten and show my Ford dealer was I able to get the problem resolved. Followng is the technical service bulletin: Some 1999-2000 Super Duty F-series and 2000 Excursion may exhibit brake vibration or shudder while braking. Engineering has released a new brake pad (P/N F81Z-2001-ea), which is equipped with a "V-spring." The V-spring keeps the brake pad off the rotor, which increases brake pad life and decreases brake shudder and noise. When replacing these brake pad use the pro-cut brake lathe to machine the rotors on the vehicle to a lateral run-out of.001" or less. Besides the shudder the thing that concerns me the most is the vehicle starts to pull to left or right when I apply the brakes. Thank you for you consideration on this issue.L.

The front end of the vehicle begins to shudder when braking at freeway speeds (60-65mph and sometimes less). In January of '99 the front rotors had to be turned to correct the problem temporarily. The problem returned again and the rotors had to be turned a second time in October of '99. The truck only has about 17K miles. The shuddering has the potential of causing an accident or pemature failure of not only the brake parts but also the front end components.
