Consumer Description

THE FUEL SYSTEM OF MY 2003 FORD TRUCK CORRODED FROM THE INSIDE, CONTAMINATING THE FUEL WHICH RUINED THE FUEL PUMP, FUEL FILTERS AND INJECTORS. EVERYTHING NEEDED TO BE REPLACED AND REPAIRED AT THE COST OF $3000. FORD WILL NOT STAND BEHIND THEIR PRODUCT, THEY ARE AWARE OF THE PROBLEM. THEY CLAIM IT IS A PROBLEM WITH THE FUEL ITSELF. THE REPLACEMENT FUEL TANKS THEY SELL TO FIX THE PROBLEM BEGIN CORRODING AGAIN WITHIN 3 MONTHS. THIS PROBLEM DOES NOT OCCUR WHEN PLASTIC FUEL TANKS ARE USED. *TR
