SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC:ANTILOCK/TRACTION CONTROL/ELECTRONIC LIMITED SLIP, SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC:FOUNDATION COMPONENTS:DISC
I HAVE HAD PROBLEMS WITH THE BRAKE SYSTEM UNTIL I HAD THEM REPLACED IN MAY 1996, NOW I HAVE JUST BEEN INFORMED THAT THE SAME PROBLEM IS OCCURING WITH THE ROTORS WARPING AND THE PADS WEARING, THIS IS THE THIRD SET OF BRAKE PADS AND WILL BE THE SECOND SET OF ROTORS, THERE IS NO WARNING I TOOK MY TRUCK IN TO HAVE THE TIRES ROTATED AND THEY SAID THE ROTORS CAN NOT EVEN BE TURNED, THEY ARE UNDER SPEC AND THE PADS ARE NOT DOWN TO METAL BUT NEED TO BE REPLACED. I HAVE OWNED ALOT OF CARS AND I HAVE NEVER LET THE BRAKES GO UNTIL I NEEDED TO TURN ROTORS MUCH LESS REPLACE THEM, TWICE. I DON'T UNDERSTAND WHY THE BRAKE SYSTEM IS NOT RECALLED AS A SAFETY RECALL. PLEASE LET ME KNOW IF I HAVE A RECOURSE FOR THE SECOND REPLACEMENT OF THESE ROTORS. *AK

FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE:STORAGE:AUXILLARY TANK:SELECTOR DEVICES
I HEARD ON THE NEWS THAT 1993 FORD TRUCKS WERE HAVING PROBLEMS WITH ONE FUEL TANK FILLING INTO THE OTHER AND OVERFLOWING. OBVIOUSLY THIS IS A FIRE HAZZARD. I HAVE A 1994 F150 THAT IS DOING THE SAME THING BUT FORD SAYS THAT IT IS NOT INCLUDED IN ANY RECALLS. OBVIOUSLY I THINK THIS IS WRONG. SPILLING FUEL IS SPILLING FUEL. I APPRECIATE ANY HELP THAT YOU CAN GIVE ME. THANKS
