I PURCHASED THIS 1999 FORD F150 TRUCK IN JUNE OF 1999, WITHIN IN A FEW MONTHS THE TRUCK WAS REGISTERING MORE MILES THAN I HAD PUT ON THIS TRUCK. I RETURNED TO DEALER AND MADE COMPLAINT. I WAS TOLD THEY COULD NOT FIND ANYTHING WRONG. THEN I RETURNED TO DEALER WITH SAME COMPLAINT ON SEVERAL ORTHER TIMES. FINALLY I CALLED THE DMV OFFICE IN WHITEVILLE NC , THEY GOT IN TOUCH WITH THE QUALITY FORD CO. AND THEN QUALITY FORD REPLACED THE ODOMETER IN TRUCK. AT THIS TIME I WAS ALSO COMPLAINING ABOUT TRUCK MAKING A KNOCKING SOUND. THEY TOLD ME THEY COULD NOT FIND ANYTHING WRONG WITH THE VEHICLE. THEY HAVE ALWAYS TOLD ME THIS ON EVERY COMPLIANT I MADE ABOUT THE TRUCK. NOW TODAY 12-4-00 THE TRUCK IS STILL JUMPING MILEAGE , I HAD THE TRUCK IN THE SHOP IN NOVEMBER AND IT WAS THERE FOR TWO WEEKS,...

FORD SAYS +/- 7MPH IS IN TOLERANCE. MY ODOMETER IS -.15 MILES IN 10; SPEED IS 3 TO 5 MPH OFF. IT CAUSES PROBLEMS WITH LAW NOT TO MENTION MILAGE IF I SELL TRUCK. *AK

THE TRUCK VIBRATES AT 36 TO 44 MPH. VIBRATION IS WORSE AT 41-42 MPH. THE VEHICLE HAS BEEN RETURNED TO THE DEALER THREE TIMES. I HAVE CONTACTED DAVID WRIGHTSMAN, FIELD SERVICE ENGINEER, FORD CUSTOMER DIVISION, ATLANTA REGIONAL OFFICE. HE HAS DRIVEN THE TRUCK AND STATES THAT CORRECTING VIBRATIONS IN THE F150 SERIES IS A "BLACK ART". FORD HAS A BULLETIN OUT ON VIBRATIONS. SERVICE BULLETIN 99-11-1, NHTSA ITEM NUMBER: SB606433. I HAVE FOUND OUT THAT THIS PROBLEM HAS EXISITED FOR SOME TIME. MY CONCERN IS THAT THE VIBRATION IS WEARING ON UNKNOWN COMPONENTS OF THE TRUCK AND WILL CAUSE A FAILURE AT AN UNPREDICTABLE TIME. THE TIRES ARE IN BALANCE AND RUN TRUE AND ARE NOT THE CAUSE. MY DEALER HAS SAID THEY WILL CALL ME IF THEY COME UP WITH A SOLUTION
