I SAW AN ARTICLE IN THE NEWSPAPER REGARDING A POSSIBLE FAILURE OF THE THICK FILM IGNITION MODULE ON SOME PICKUP TRUCKS . ARE YOU AWARE OF THIS PROBLEM AND THE CONCERNS IT MAY CAUSE FOR THE VEHICLE? IF THERE IS A PROBLEM HOW CAN I TELL IF MY TRUCK FALLS IN THIS CATEGORY? THANK YOU: ALFRED SCHOBER. *AK

I WAS VERY HAPPY WITH THIS TRUCK FOR THE FIRST 5 YEARS. BUT AFTER THAT EVEN WITH TAKING GREAT CARE OF THE TRUCK IT STARTED TO FAIL THE ALTENATOR....$400,REPLACING 2 EXHAUST TUBES FOR EMISSIONS $450,REAR SPRING SHACKELS AND MOUNT $450, THE TRANS MISSION IS NOW FAILING COST NOT KNOWN YET, NEVER BEEN IN AN ACCIDENT BUT DOORS DON'T LINE UP ANYMORE WATER LEAKS IN,LOWER SHEETMETAL OF TRUCK BED RUSTING THROUGH PAINT EVEN WITH BEING WAXED MANY MANY TIMES,VENT WINDOWS LEAK AND ARE RUSTING, I KNOW VEHICELS NEED ALOT OF CARE BUT I THINK THE WORST PROBLEM WAS THE RUSTING OUT OF THE REAR SPRING MOUNTS AND SHACKELS THIS IS A REAL DANGER ,I HAVE NEVER HEARED OF THIS HAPPENING TO ANY VEHICLE. I KNOW OF TWO OTHER 93 F 150'S WITH THE SAME PROBLEM. I HOPE SOMEONE CAN GET THE WORD OUT TO OTHERS WITH 1993 F 150'S SO THEY...

ANYTIME TRUCK IS STARTED, UPON REACHING 20MPH THE TRUCK WONT ACCELERATE EVEN IF YOU FLOOR IT, AND THE ENGINE ACTS LIKE IT WANTS TO CUT OUT AND THEN SUDDENLY THE ENGING/TRANSMISSION ENGAGES AND ROCKETS FORWARD AND IF I'M NOT ON TOP OF THIS I COULD HIT SOMEONE, ESPECIALLY WHEN AT STOPLIGHTS WHILE THE TRUCK IS ACTING UP. ADDITIONALLY, I CAN REMOVE MY KEY FROM THE IGNITION WITHOUT TURNING THE IGNITION OFF, WITH THE TRUCK STILL RUNNING. IS THE IGNITION PROBLEM DANGEROUS?? I DEFINITELY KNOW THAT THE ENGINE HESITATION AND LURCH FORWARD IS VERY DANGEROUS, HOWEVER, THIS PROBLEM IS INTERMITTENT AND WILL NOT REPRODUCE ITSELF CONSISTENTLY, AND I THERFORE AM HAVING TROUBLE WITH MY MECHANIC DETERMINING WHAT NEEDS TO BE REPLACED (I REFUSE TO TAKE THE VEHICLE TO THE DEALERSHIP TO SPEND A LOT OF MONEY AND NOT GET THIS PROBLEM FIXED) AND AM MORE CONFIDENT IN MY OWN MECHANIC. IF...

#709476 | August 2, 1999 Crash

THE 4WHEEL DRIVE, U/JOINTS AND DRIVE TRAIN HAVE GONE OUT ON THE TRUCK 4 TIMES, THE ELECTRICAL SYSTEM HAS NEVER WORKED RIGHT FROM DAY ONE AND HAS BEEN TAKEN INTO DEALER SEVERAL TIMES WITH COMPLAINTS BUT NEVER FIXED (AUTOLOCKS ON DOORS AND WINDOWS DON'T WORK AFTER HEAVY RAIN OR WET, HEAVY SNOW STORM) THE LAST TIME THE 4WHEEL DRIVE WENT OUT, THE FRONT DRIVERS WHEEL FLEW OFF THE TRUCK WHILE TRAVELING ON THE HIGHWAY. LUG NUTS AND POSTS WERE NOT LOOSE NOR SHEARED OFF. UPON CONTACTING FORD CUSTOMER SERVICE EACH TIME TRUCK TAKEN IN, HAVE BEEN TOLD THAT THERE HAVE BEEN "NO" RECALLS OF ANY TYPE ON OUR VEHICLE EXCEPT FOR ONE TO CHECK THE BOLTS ON THE FRONT BUMPER. THE FOLLOWING HAVE SHOWN OCCASSIONAL PROBLEMS SINCE 1993, BUT HAVE CONSISTENTLY BECOME WORSE WITH THE AGE/MILEAGE OF TRUCK: INTERMITTEN WIPERS DO NOT WORK, DIMMER LIGHT AND OTHER GAUGES DO NOT...
