Consumer Description

ISSUES BEGAN ON FRIDAY MORNING. HAD A WARNING ON DASH INDICATING LEFT REAR DOOR AJAR, WHEN IN FACT THE DOOR WAS CLOSED. TOOK TO DEALER WHO SAID IT WAS PROBABLY A BAD SENSOR AND FOR $400 THEY COULD FIX IT. FAULTY WARNING WILL NOT LET AUTO LOCKS ENGAGE OR ALARM TO SET AS IT IS READING THE DOOR AS OPEN. HUGE SAFETY CONCERN IF YOU ARE TRAVELLING WITH A CHILD, THE DOORS WILL NOT LOCK AND YOU HAPPEN TO GET INTO AN ACCIDENT. POSSIBLE EJECTION OF PASSENGERS. THEN CAME OUT TO THE TRUCK ON FRIDAY AFTERNOON AND NOTICED THE REAR SEATS WERE WET. UNABLE TO FIND OUT WHY. FURTHER INVESTIGATION TODAY REVEALS THAT THE HEADLINER IS DAMAGED FROM WATER DAMAGE. READING SEVERAL PLACES ONLINE, IT APPEARS THAT THE F-150 HAS A BAD LEAKING PROBLEM FROM THE 3RD BRAKE LIGHT ON THE REAR OF THE CAB. THIS WILL NOW HAVE TO BE FIXED AND REPLACED AND THE TRUCK IS HARDLY 3 YEARS OLD. DISAPPOINTED IN THE QUALITY "FORD BUILT" PRODUCTS. *TR
