I bought my Super Duty F-250 in early March of 2000 and my GEM module is failing. I cannot use my door unlock buttons. My driver window fails to go down all the way, and my key fob doesn't work the locks. My complaint is that Ford had a recall on this same module up to the year 1999 my truck was ordered from the factory in late December 1999 or early 2000 and is having the same problems that the trucks up to 1999 are having, but because it's a 2000 Ford will not cover it.

Vehicle fails to stop properly when brakes are applied. Would shake and vibrate badly. Took vehicle to dealership, mechanic noticed rotors were warped, which caused the braking problem. Had them replaced after 10,000 miles. Engine stalls and oil leaks from the turbo into the inter cooler. Transmission does not shift. Tires began to bulge out, consumer did not specify kind of tires. Electric window motor failed. Seals are out on the front axles and they were just replaced two months ago. Air filter system is inadaquet for this size of engine and has to be replaced every 2 to 3 thousand miles.
