I HAD BEEN DRIVING ON THE HIGH WAY FOR ABOUT 20 MILES AT 65 MPH (THE SPEED LIMIT WAS 70 MPH) WHEN THE LEFT REAR TIRE (GOODYEAR WRANGLER AT/S LT285/75R16) EXPLODED. IT RIPPED THE FUEL FILLER NECK OFF OF THE TRUCK BENT THE REAR BUMPER AND BENT THE SIDE OF MY TRUCK IN MANY PLACES.

STEERING
23 complaints
The bracket on the passenger side that is welded to the bottom of the front axle is rusted completely through to the point that the u-bolts that secure the leaf springs to the axle have pulled through the bracket. It appears to be a significant safety issue due to the fact the front axle is no longer secured to the vehicle.

DT: THE CLUTCH PIN BROKE COMPLETELY OFF. THE CLUTCH PEDAL WENT ALL THE WAY TO FLOOR, AND THE CONSUMER LOST CONTROL OF THE VEHICLE.

AIR BAGS

I SLID ON BLACK ICE COASTING DOWN A SMALL HILL ON THE ROADWAY DOING 35 MPH IN A 45 MPH ZONE. THE MOMENTUM & WEIGHT OF THE VEHICLE MADE THE VEHICLE VEER OFF THE ROAD INTO A PINE TREE. DESPITE MY BEST EFFORTS TO TAKE MY FOOT OFF THE GAS & STEER IN THE DIRECTION WHERE THE VEHICLE WAS SLIDING (AS WE WERE ALWAYS TAUGHT TO DO), I HAD NO CONTROL OVER WHERE MY VEHICLE WAS GOING. I HIT A PINE TREE RATHER HARD. MY FRIEND WAS TRAVELING BEHIND ME & WATCHED IT HAPPEN. I HIT (BRUISED) MY ARM & KNEE BUT DIDN'T REQUIRE AN AMBULANCE. THE FRAME, FENDER, HOOD & HEADLIGHT ALL GOT CRUMPLED. LUCKILY THE STEEL FRAME, HEAVY LARGE TOW HOOK IN FRONT & STEEL BUMPER TOOK MOST OF THE FORCE CAUSING THOSE PARTS & THE STEEL COMPLETE FRAME (INCLUDING THE LEAF SPRINGS UNDERNEATH) TO CRUMPLE UNDER IMPACT. THE PINE TREE WOUND UP EMBEDDED IN & ALL AROUND THAT HOOK & GRILL. HOWEVER, THE FORCE OF SUCH A CRASH SHOULD HAVE DEPLOYED THE 2 FRONT AIRBAGS. NEITHER ONE DID DEPLOY! MY QUESTION IS, WHY DIDN'T IT?! THE IMPACT SURELY WAS ONE THAT SHOULD HAVE DEPLOYED AN AIRBAG! ARE THEY DEFECTIVE?! LUCKILY I DIDN'T SUSTAIN GREAT INJURIES OR GET KILLED. HOW ARE WE TO TRUST THE SAFETY OF VEHICLES WHEN THE VERY PARTS THAT ARE INSTALLED DON'T PERFORM THEIR JOB? WE TRUST THE VEHICLES TO BE RELIABLE & PROTECT US. THAT'S WHY WE CHOOSE CERTAIN VEHICLES & PAY BIG BUCKS TO HAVE THE SAFETY FEATURES WE WANT IN THEM & TO PROTECT US. IRONICALLY, THIS WASN'T THE FIRST TIME THIS HAPPENED. A FAMILY MEMBER'S FORD PICKUP'S AIRBAG NEVER DEPLOYED EITHER WHEN THEY HAD A FRONTAL CRASH. WHAT IS FORD DOING ABOUT ADDRESSING THIS ISSUE WITH THEIR VEHICLES' AIRBAGS NOT FUNCTIONING?! IN ORDER TO SAVE LIVES A VEHICLE MUST BE SAFE BY BEING IN GOOD WORKING ORDER! WE PAY FOR SAFETY & EVERYTHING TO BE WORKING PROPERLY YET ARE FINDING OUT FORD VEHICLES AREN'T BUILT AS FORD TOUGH AS THEY CLAIM! *TR

WE HAVE REPLACE 4 CRANK TRIGGER SENSORS ON OUR 2001 F350 SUPER DUTY SINCE WE GOT IT. YESTERDAY I WAS DRIVING THE TRUCK AT 70 MILES AN HOUR ON THE FREEWAY WHEN IT STARTED TO SHAKE. I THOUGHT I HAD A FLAT SO I LIFTED AND GOT OVER TO PULL OFF THE FREEWAY, BUT THE TRUCK KEPT SHAKING AND THE SPEED WAS DROPPING FAST. I TURNED ON THE EMERGENCY FLASHERS AND COULD DO NOTHING EXCEPT TRY TO GET IT OFF THE FREEWAY. IT STALLED SO I PULLED OFF. IT WOULD NOT RESTART. AFTER ABOUT 20 MINUTES IN 16 DEGREE TEMPERATURES I TRIED TO RESTART. IT DID RESTART AND I GOT UP A RAMP BUT THE TRUCK WAS CHUGGING ALL THE WAY AND WOULD NOT GO ABOVE 15 MILES PER HOUR. THIS TRUCK HAS QUIT IN THE WORST PLACES WITH NO WARNING THAT THE CRANK TRIGGER SENSOR WAS GOING OUT. THIS IS NOT THE FIRST TIME I HAVE BEEN NOT ONLY STRANDED BUT IN A DANGEROUS PLACE. THIS TRUCK HAS NOT BEEN ABUSED AND HAS HAD MAINTENANCE DONE REGULARLY. FORD AND INTERNATIONAL HARVESTER (MAKER OF THE PART THAT DIES) SAYS THAT THEY HAVE NOT HEARD OF ANY OTHERS LIKE THIS. BUT WE HAVE A LOT OF FRIENDS WHO DRIVE THE SAME TRUCK AND JUST ABOUT ALL OF THEM HAVE HAD THIS PROBLEM. WE ALL CARRY SPARE CRANK TRIGGER SENSORS AND 10 MM SOCKETS AND DRIVES TO FIX THE PROBLEM WHEN IT HAPPENS. IT IS REALLY AN ISSUE WHEN YOU HAVE TO CARRY SPARE PARTS WITH YOU BECAUSE YOU NEVER KNOW WHEN IT WILL GO OUT. THE PART WAS IN THE TRUCK LESS THAN 200 MILES WHEN IT WENT. WE REPLACE THE SAME PART DURING CHRISTMAS AND WE DON'T DRIVE THE TRUCK EVERY DAY. *JB
