2002 FORD F SERIES Power Train Problems

WHILE BACKING INTO MY TRUCK STARTED MAKING A LOAD NOISE, IT WAS OBVIOUS IT WAS IN THE FRONT END. TRYING TO TURN THE STEERING WHEEL, IT WAS STUCK. STOPPED THE TRUCK, LOOKED UNDER THE FRONT OF TRUCK AT STEERING, I NOTICED THAT THERE WAS A HOLE IN THE FRAME, IT WAS THEN THAT I SAW THE STEERING LINK, AGAINST THE RIGHT CV AXLE. THE IDLER ARM HAD SOME HOW RIPPED OFF THE FRAME, LEAVING NA HOLE WHERE THE IDLER ARM WAS, THE FRAME OF THE TRUCK HAD WEAKENED, CAUSING THE METAL TO WEAKEN AND SEPARATE, THANK AGAIN FORD. *TR

DUE TO A DESIGN FLAW IN THE FORD 5.4 ENGINE MY 2002 HARLEY F-150 BLEW A SPARK PLUG LAST WEEKEND (2/15/04). FORD IS ONLY WILLING TO REPLACE THE ONE HEAD WITH THE NEWLY DESIGNED HEAD (AND THAT IS COSTING ME $500 BECAUSE MY TRUCK HAS 40,000 MILES). IT'S A KNOWN DESIGN FLAW AND HAS HAPPENED TO MANY OWERS WITH LESS THAN 10,000 MILES. FORD NEEDS TO STAND BEHIND THEIR PRODUCT.
