Consumer Description

WE OWN SEVERAL FORD F-150 TRUCKS. IN THE LAST 3 MONTHS WE HAD FOUR SEPARATE PROBLEMS WITH THE REAR AXLES. ONE TRUCK THE AXLE BROKE AND THE WHEEL CAME COMPLETELY OFF. ANOTHER TRUCK THE AXLE WAS DESTROYED AND HAD TO BE REPLACED. THE LAST TRUCK IS BRAND NEW WITH LESS THAN 2000 MILES AND EXPERIENCED THE SAME PROBLEM YESTERDAY. *JB
