2001 FORD F-250 Complaints

FOR THE R4100 TRANSMISSION. THE EXTERNAL TRANSMISSION FILTER CAME APART AND DESTROYED MY TRANSMISSION (FORD PART # XC3Z-7B155-BA) DEFINITELY NOT A 30,000 MILE FILTER. NOT MANY PEOPLE KNOW ANYTHING ABOUT THIS,OF WHAT I HAVE FOUND. THERE WAS A EASY 80,000 LEFT IN THE TRANS IF LINES AND OIL PORTS WEREN'T PLUGGED FROM FILTER FIBERS. #2 THE PAINT CANCER (WHITE) IS THERE ANY RECALLS OR HELP WITH THAT?

THE DRIVER'S SIDE SEAT BELT COMES UNBUCKLED WITHOUT THE LATCH BEING TOUCHED WHILE DRIVING. THIS RESULTS IN AN UNSAFE SITUATION WHERE THE SEAT BELT ISN'T PROVIDING ANY SAFETY AND IT ALSO REQUIRES TWO HANDS TO RE-BUCKLE IT TAKING MY HANDS OFF THE STEERING WHEEL. THIS HAPPENS WHILE DRIVING IN MY DRIVEWAY, ON CITY STREETS AND HIGHWAYS. THE PROBLEM HAS BEEN HAPPENING SOON AFTER I BOUGHT THE TRUCK USED ON NOVEMBER 10, 2004.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2001 FORD F-250. WHILE DRIVING AT AN UNKNOWN SPEED, THE VEHICLE CRASHED INTO A PEDESTRIAN BRIDGE. THE DRIVER WAS FATALLY INJURED.

THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE ISSUE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 109,000. UPDATED 04/04/17 LJ *CN

MY RECENTLY PURCHASED VEE RUBBER A/T TIRE BLEW UP WITH A LOUD BANG SUNDAY MORNING PARKED IN THE DRIVEWAY, THANKFULLY, AND NOT ON THE ROAD. I JUST BOUGHT FOUR TIRES FROM SIMPLE TIRE ON 07/07/2016 AND ONLY PUT 200 MILES ON THEM. IT APPEARS TO ME LIKE AN AIR LEAK DEVELOPED NEAR THE TREAD/SIDEWALL AREA AND DELAMINATED THE SIDEWALL FROM THE INNER LINER AND BLEW OUT NEAR THE BEAD. TIRES: VEE RUBBER TAIGA A/T LT285/75R-16 R 126/123R THE ONLY DATE CODE MARKING I SEE IS 0316?

WHILE DRIVING BACK HOME FROM SHOPPING MY BRAKES (ANTI-LOCK STYLE) LOCKED UP AND VIOLENTLY SHOOK MY VEHICLE ALL OVER THE ROAD I WAS DRIVING ON. I HAD LIMITED OR NO CONTROL AT ALL OF THIS INCIDENT. WAS DOING ABOUT 40 MPH. TRUCK ACTED AS IF BRAKES WERE APPLIED ON AND OFF 50/60 TIMES SO FAST THAT THERE WAS NOTHING TO DO BUT HANG ON TO THE STEERING WHEEL. AT ONE POINT I THOUGHT I WAS GOING TO FLIP OVER AS THE TRUCK WENT SIDEWAYS. STEERING WENT FROM SIDE TO SIDE AT FIRST, THEN A CONSTANT PULL TO THE RIGHT. I THOUGHT ONE OF MY FRONT TIRES WAS BLOWN OUT. SLOWED DOWN ENOUGH TO GAIN SOME CONTROL BUT IT TOOK MY TRUCK OVER A CURB AND STOPPED ON A SIDEWALK AND SOME GRASS. WHEN I DID APPLY THE BRAKES NOTHING HAPPENED UNTIL I WAS ON THE SIDEWALK AND GOING VERY SLOW BY THIS TIME. GOT OUT AND INSPECTED MY TRUCK FOR DAMAGE BUT SAW NOTHING. WAS ONLY ABOUT .3 MILES FROM HOME SO I STARTED MY VEHICLE AND LIMED IT HOME AT WALKING SPEED. WHEN I TRIED TO GO A LITTLE FASTER IT WOULD START JUMPING AND SHAKING AGAIN. GOT IT HOME AND THAT IS WHEN I NOTICED THE ABS LIGHT WAS ON. IT WAS NOT ON WHEN I STARTED HOME FROM THE STORE. THIS HAPPENED SO FAST THAT I AM GLAD NO ONE WAS IN ANOTHER LANE. THIS HAPPENED ON A 3 LANE EACH DIRECTION ROAD. ALL THIS OCCURRED ON JULY 4TH AT ABOUT 10:47 A.M.

DRIVING OUT OF STATE FOR WORK AND SPARK PLUG BLEW OUT OF MY ENGINE. AND FROM THAT RESULTS IT COST ME QUIET A BIT OF EXTRA MONEY THAT I DIDN'T HAVE TO SPEND AND MISSED A DAYS TRYING TO GET THAT PROBLEM FIXED. AND IT RUIN MY FATHERS DAY WEEKEND I WANTED TO SPEND WITH MY KID.

I WAS IN THE PROCESS OF RUNNING A MEDICAL IN MY PERSONAL TRUCK WHEN I STARTING THE ENGINE IT POPPED AND WHEN I CHECKED IT OUT I NOTICED THE ENGINE BLEW OUT A SPARK PLUG. SO WHEN I CALLED THE PARTS STORE THEY SAID THE TYPE OF MOTOR I HAVE IN MY TRUCK IS BAD FOR BLOWING THEM LIKE THAT AND TO FIX IT WOULD COST A PRETTY PENNY SO MY QUESTION IS IF YOU ALL AND FORD KNOWS THERES A PROBLEM HOW COME THEY DONT HAVE TO FIX I KNOW SO FAR IT HASNT BEEN AN SAFTEY ISSUE YET WHEN WILL IT BE OR IS IT A CONSUMER ISSUE.

5.4 MOTOR SPARK PLUGS KEEP BLOWING OUT. THIS IS A PROBLEM WITH THE OLDER ONES AND NEWER ONES AS WELL FORD SHOULD MAKE IT RIGHT WITH THE CONSUMERS
