2003 FORD F-150 Unknown Or Other Problems

My husband was shoveling snow off of our vehicles and seen smoke coming from under the hood of his truck. When he opened the hood the truck was on fire on the right side. The truck was turned off when this happened. He threw snow on top of it to put the fire out and unplugged the battery to prevent further fire damage.

Our truck has been great but we have a major problem. It is leaking water when it rains. Getting front floor carpet wet and now it is getting the fuse box wet and causing electrical systems to not work. Like today the odometer won't light up. Also dripping from top of windshield. We are having the windshield and seal replaced on Thursday but the glass company says they can't guarantee m of seal will stop the Problem. He said the drain system was factory installed backwards and it's not draining properly.

On 11/27/2022 at or around 4:30 P.M. my 2003 Ford F-150 burned almost completely, without any mechanical failures or warnings, thirty full minutes after being parked and then after only having been run for three to four miles. The fire department ended up putting it out before it was fully consumed.

DRIVING A 2003 FORD F-150, LARIAT, SUPER CREW, GOING APPROXIMATELY 40 MPH AND ACCELERATING, ON THE ON-RAMP ENTRANCE TO CA STATE ROUTE 108, FROM STANDARD ROAD IN SONORA, CA, ON JULY-3-2019, THE WHEELS LOCKED AND THEIR WAS A LOSS OF STEERING. THE TIME WAS APPROXIMATELY 11 AM, ROAD WAS DRY, FAIR SKIES, NO DEBRIS OR OBSTACLES ON ROADWAY. THE ROAD WAS IN GOOD CONDITION. ONE WEEK EARLIER REPLACED ALL TIRES AT BIG O TIRES, SONORA, CA; THE WHEEL ALIGNMENT WAS CORRECTED AT THAT TIME. THE ON-RAMP WAS CURVING NORMALLY TO THE RIGHT, PROVIDING ACCESS TO THE WESTWARD BOUND TRAFFIC LANE. WHEN THE WHEELS LOCKED THE VEHICLE SPUN TO RIGHT, BUT TURNING THE STEERING WHEEL TO LEFT, INTO THE SPIN HAD NO EFFECT ON THE SPIN-OUT. THE PICK-UP TURNED 180 DEGREES, AND THEN ROLLED DOWN THE EMBANKMENT ON THE INSIDE OF THE ON-RAMP CURVE, THE NORTH-SIDE OF THE ON-RAMP. I WAS...

SEAT BELT WONT LOCK MOST TIMES. HAS BEEN LIKE THIS FOR OVER 10 YEARS. BOTH BACK DOORS WONT OPEN. IF TRUCK CATCHES FIRE YOU WONT BE ABLE TO GET OUT. DOORS OPENED THEN ONE DAY THE WERE STUCK, THIS IS A HAZERD IF YOU ARE SITTING IN THE BACK AND NEED TO GET OUT FAST.

VEHICLE WAS PARKED AND NOT IN USE. OWNER RETURNED HOME WHILE AWAY WITH HIS SON TO FIND THAT VEHICLE FIRE WAS EXTINGUISHED BY LOCAL FIRE DEPARTMENT. THE EXTENT OF FIRE WAS THE FRONT ENGINE AREA. VEHICLE WAS USED NIGHT BEFORE WITHOUT ANY INCIDENT.

I WAS AT A COMPLETE STOP IN A CONSTRUCTION ZONE, WHEN MY BRAKE PEDAL WENT COMPLETELY TO THE FLOOR (GAVE OUT) THIS CAUSING ME NOT TO BE ABLE TO FIGURE OUT WHAT HAPPENED FAST ENOUGH BEFORE I ENDED UP REARENDING THE CAR IN FRONT OF ME AND THAT WAS PUSHED INTO ANOTHER CAR. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED, STILL UNDER WARRANTY NEW MASTER BRAKE CYLINDER WAS INSTALLED. *CN

IN BETWEEN OIL CHANGES, THE SENDER ASSEMBLY IN MY FORD F150 FAILED TO SEND A MESSAGE TO THE GAUGE THAT THE ENGINE WAS OVERHEATING. BECAUSE OF THAT FAILURE, BOTH HEAD GASKETS WERE BLOWN ALLOWING WATER TO GO INSIDE THE ENGINE. THE SENDER ASSEMBLY WAS NOT WORKING SO IT DID NOT SEND A SIGNAL TO THE OIL GAUGE THAT THE PRESSURE WAS LOW. THIS CAUSED A COMPLETE ENGINE FAILURE. COST TO REPLACE THE ENGINE WAS $5,405.12 + 20 DAYS OF A RENT CAR $672. ALL OF THIS OUT OF MY POCKET AND FORD REFUSES TO REIMBURSE ME AS DOES THE DEALERSHIP WHO DID THE REPAIR. *TR

I WAS WIPING THE INTERIOR OF MY TRUCK AND CUT MYSELF ON A SHARP EDGE. THE ITEM THAT CUT ME WAS A BADGE/LOGO WHICH IS AFFIXED TO A SOFT COVER ON THE CENTER CONSOLE OF MY TRUCK. MY TRUCK IS A 2003 FORD F-150 HARLEY DAVISON EDITION. I WOULD NOT NORMALLY COMPLAIN ABOUT A BUMP OR BRUISE I WOULD GET WORKING ON A VEHICLE. THIS DECORATIVE BADGE ON THE CONSOLE IS SO SHARP THAT IT CUT THROUGH THE TOWEL I WAS WIPING WITH AND THEN INTO MY FINGER. THIS BADGE IS IN AN AREA WHERE PEOPLE WOULD NORMALLY CONTACT THE VEHICLE TO OPEN THE CONSOLE, AND IT IS VERY UNSAFE. *JB
