Consumer Description

I PURCHASED A FORD F150 CREW CAB 4X4 BRAND NEW IN 2009. AT 35000 KMS (+/-), 55000 KMS (+/-) AND NOW 90000 KMS, THE "CLUTCH PACKS" HAD TO BE REPLACED. WHEN PULLING A TRAILER OR BOAT AND THE DRIVE TRAIN GETS HOT, THE DRIVE TRAIN GRINDS AND SHAKES BADLY. I SPOKE TO SERVICE AT DEALERSHIP & WAS TOLD THIS IS A COMMON OCCURRENCE AND SEVERAL OTHER OWNERS FROM THAT DEALERSHIP ALONE HAVE HAD THE SAME COMPLAINT. I AM WORRIED THAT WHEN DRIVING AT FREEWAY SPEEDS WITH A TRAILER ATTACHED THAT SOMETHING IS GOING TO LET GO AND CAUSE A SERIOUS ACCIDENT. SOMETHING SHOULD BE DONE AT FORD TO FIX THIS MANUFACTURING DEFECT BEFORE SOMEONE IS SERIOUSLY INJURED OR KILLED. *TR
