My drivers side door handle was hanging up.4 yrs ago it broke, replaced it 3 times over the next year.gave up and just roll my window down and open it from the outside.now my passenger door is doing it.last week ran into somebody at the gas station who watched me roll my window down to get out and was laughing, said his ford van same year does not work on passenger side.met a man almost 3 yrs ago at ford dealership walking with door handle in hand, same thing.i have met at least 6 or 7 people with the same problem in this year of ford truck.if you have to exit the vehicle in a hurry or the power system fails you are out of luck for you are stuck in it.i have met to many people with the same problem.i can't believe this has not been recalled.very frustrated.i found on the ford powerstroke forum that many other people are having this problem and they say it is hanging up on a piece of metal inside.now i have no doors that open from inside.
Rear axle seal is leaking brake fluid, and causing brakes to wear out faster.
I was stopped at an intersection with truck in gear and clutch pedal down,all of a sudden the clutch released with the pedal still down causing the truck to lurch into the street about 15 ft before i could stop with the brakes.the cars in the street were able to avoid me but i was very shaken. I found the problem was the "clutch rod end plastic bushing and retainer" had failed allowing the clutch to release without the pedal. This was replaced but failed again 6 months later.fortunately i always keep the truck in neutral when stopped now so it was only an inconvenience. Checking the internet for a fix i found several companies that make a replacement assembly for this because of all the failures. I have been keeping the "rod end" in place with wire and always keep in neutral to prevent another failure but have ordered a replacement assembly an ebay company to prevent this very dangerous failure from happening again. Why hasn't ford notified anyone about this possible catastrophic and life threatening failureand at least supplied parts to fix this correctly.
While driving at 30 mph, vehicle experiences vibration in driveshaft.
There is a pressure switch on my master cylinder of the braking system. There is o listed recall for my pickup truck how ever after about $900.00 and 2 different auto shops i found this switch to be the defective part and when i went to the dealer jim click of tuscon az and the parts guy gave me the part i requested i questioned the wiring harness adaptor and why the switch was not the same as i brought him. He stated well there was a lot of failures with the old design and it was a recall i stated well shouldn't the part be freeno response - - the defect in the part was an air leak causing me to chase it for a year on and off constantly bleeding little air bubbles out with over a gallon of fluid. I noticed it with just the ever so slight of dirt sticking to the leak on the under side of switch which could not be seen. This leak resulted in a constantly soft pedal with a about a 1-2 second braking delay. I checked to ford site and the only existing recall is a speed sensor. Not for this part.
