I own a 1999 Ford F-350 I parked in my drive way at 8 pm on janurary 1 and woke up at to a loud boom at 5 am in the morning. Ford sent me a recall notice on December 30 was going to set a appointment on janurary 2 unfortunately the truck burned Monday morning. Also have a Ford Expedition looked up the vehicle identification number and it to has the same problem Ford has yet to send me a recall notice. Now arguing with insurance company they want to give me nothing for my truck.

The left rear wheel separated from the vehicle, which caused the vehicle jerk foward. The consumer requested an 03 vehicle or reimbursement for the incidental expenses. After the purchase of the vehicle, the manual, lockable hub(s) began to fail. The dealer convinced the consumer(s) to purchase 8 ply tires, but this didn't reduce the noise or hub problems, the consumer also experienced acceleration problem's. the dealer couldn't find the problem. The engine idled rough and the engine light had come on. A bad cam sensor was found, and a sound had come from the fuel pump. An adapter to the metal plate was built in, extending from the underdash, to the firewall, to provide a better ground system. Scc

The processor that controls emissions on a 6.0 L V-10 with a 5 speed manual transmission in California is the same processor as for an automatic transmission. The use of this processor causes the engine to surge or not reduce speed when the accelerator is released. When using the engine compression to slow down, the engine will surge and caude the vehicle to speed-up. The vehicle is stressful to drive in close traffic or in congested parking lots. Ford was made aware of this problem approxiamently 2 weeks after the vehicle was purchased. Ford has yet to fix the problem. The vehicle has been seen by numerious Ford dealers in several states including California.

Had the cruise control on & it would fail to release when brake pedal or accelerator pedal were touched. Would press the decelerator button, but that failed to release cruise control. Problem is intermittent. Been to dealer & informed by mechanic there was nothing that could be done & to wait to see if recall will happen.
