Consumer Description

VEHICLE TAKEN IN ON OCT 5, 2011 FOR SAFETY RECALL NOTICE 11S21. WHILE ON THE RACK MUCH RUSTING WAS NOTICED ON UNDERCARRIAGE AS WELL AS SPOTS RUSTING THROUGH PAINT AT SPECIFIC POINTS ON THE RIGHT AND LEFT SIDE ROCKER PANELS, BED AND THE RUNNING BOARDS. PICTURES AND SAMPLES WERE TAKEN AND AN EMAIL SENT TO THE COMPANY PRESIDENT. NO RESPONSE WAS EVER RECEIVED. AN INTERNET SEARCH HAS FOUND THAT THIS RUST PROBLEM IS PREVALENT IN THE F-150 OF THIS VINTAGE. THE RUST HAS NOT ONLY DIMINISHED THE VALUE OF THE VEHICLE BUT THE ISSUES WITH THE ROCKER PANELS AND RUNNING BOARDS HAVE THE POTENTIAL TO LEAD TO ACCIDENTS OCCURRING WITH A FAILURE AT OPERATING SPEEDS. *TR
