Vehicle caught fire while parked and occupied by myself. Engine was not running. Vehicle was totally destroyed by fire. Fire marshall investigated incident and found that cause was directly due to the known problem with Ford Motor Co.'s speed control deactivation switch.

problem #1

Nov 112003

F-350 4WD 8-cyl

  • Automatic transmission
  • 69,800 miles
I have a well maintained 2000 F-150 5.4L with 69,800 miles that spun a bearing last week. After pulling the motor and removing the oil pan, it is quite obvious that this is a manufacturing defect. The 'broken rods' that are used in this motor are of very poor quality. I contacted Ford customer service and their response was, "I am sorry about your luck, but your vehicle is no longer under warranty". please advise.
