THE TIRE ON MY TRUCK KEPT LEAKING AIR DOWN OVER A WHOLE DAY. I WOULD REFILL WITH AIR THE NEXT MORNING AND WOULD TRY AND FIND WHERE THE LEAK WAS. COULD NOT FIND ANY WHOLE IN THE TIRE. WHEN THE SERVICE STATION TOOK THE WHEEL OFF THE TRUCK AND PUT AIR INTO THE TIRE WE COULD HEAR AIR LEAKING OUT. WE THEN LOCATED A CRACK IN THE ALUMINUM WHEEL. WE THEN LOCATED A SECOND CRACK IN THE ALUMINUM WHEEL. WE THEN CONTACTED A JUNK YARD ( D&D, NEWCOMERS) ABOUT PURCHASING A USED ALUMINUM WHEEL FORD PART # F 81A1007GB, BOTH SAID THAT THEY DO NOT SELL THIS USED WHEEL DUE TO A MANUFACTURING DEFECT. WE THEY ASK IF WE COULD PURCHASE A REFURBISHED ALUMINUM WHEEL AND BOTH AGAIN SAID THAT NO ONE WOULD REFURBISH THE FORD PART DUE TO DEFECT. I HAVE CONTACTED FORD MOTOR COMPANY AND THE LOCAL FORD DEALER HAGERSTOWN FORD SERVICE MANAGER TIM ROWE AND THEY SAID THAT THEY KNOW OF NO DEFECT. WE REPLACED THE ALUMINUM WHEEL WITH A NEW FORD ALUMINUM WHEEL PART # 4C3Z1007KACP. I OWN A 99 FORD F-350 DUAL WHEEL TRUCK 4X6. *TR

WHILE DRIVING MY 1999 FORD TRITON V-10 POWERED C-CLASS MOTORHOME IN HEAVY TRAFFIC THE ENGINE MADE A LOUD BANG. AFTER THE BANG IT CONTINUED TO RATTLE BADLY AND MIS-FIRE. WORKED MY WAY ACROSS TRAFFIC AND STOPPED IN A NO PARKING ZONE FOR 2 HRS AWAITING A TOW TRUCK. WE WERE IN A FAIRLY UN-SAFE POSITION, AS THE SHOULDER WAS LIMITED AND IT WAS ON THE EXIT ROUTE FOR THE CALIFORNIA SPEEDWAY JUST AFTER A NASCAR RACE. THE REPAIR SHOP HAS TOLD ME THAT A SPARK PLUG BLEW OUT OF THE CYLINDER HEAD. I'M LEARNING THAT THIS IS A COMMON OCCURRENCE ON THIS MODEL ENGINE. *NM
