Consumer Description

MY HUSBAND AND I HAVE A FORD F-250 V10 2001. AT 62000 MILES, THE ENGINE BEGAN TO MAKE AN INCREDIBLE NOISE IN THE LOWER END. WE IMMEDIATELY WENT TO THE FORD DEALERSHIP AND WERE TOLD THAT WE NEED TO REPLACE THE LONG BLOCK. SINCE WE ARE 12000 MILES OVER WARRANTY, WE WOULD NEED TO COME UP WITH $5700 PLUS LABOR. I HAVE SEEN NUMEROUS SITES WHERE PEOPLE ARE HAVING PROBLEMS WITH THEIR V10 AND FORD WILL REPLACE THE ENTIRE ENGINE, IF UNDER WARRANTY. FORD RECALLED AND REPLACED OUR TRANSMISSION LAST YEAR, BUT IT DID NOT HELP WITH THE ENGINE. PLEASE HELP US, I KNOW 10 OTHER PEOPLE WITH THE SAME PROBLEM, WE ARE ALL FRUSTRATED AND UNABLE TO DRIVE OUR VEHICLES. *LA
