#702084January 10, 1999
POWER TRAIN:DRIVELINE
PROBLEM FIRST CAME TO MY ATTENTION WHEN I STARTED NOTICING A CLUNKING NOISE FOLLOWED BY THE FRONT 4 WHEEL DRIVE HUBS INGAGEING WHEN PROCEEDING FROM A STOP. THE PROBLEM IS QUITE CLEARLY PREMATURE WARE, AND POSSIBLY A SAFETY PROBLEM. AS THE VEHICLE WAS TECHNICALLY OFF WARANTY (6 MONTHS), FORD OFFERED TO PICKUP 1/3 OF THE COST, THE DEALER 1/3, AND MYSELF THE REMAINDER WITH LITTLE DEBATE ABOUT IT. FORD HOWEVER REFUSED TO PICKUP THE REMAINDER OF THE COST.

ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING:EXHAUST SYSTEM
REPEATED FORD F250 EXHAUST MANIFOLD LEAKS. PROBLEM PERSIST ON 1990 & NEWER FORD F250 PICKUP TRUCKS. HEALTH PROBLEMS TO PERSONS IS A DEFINITE CONCERN. EMISSION ENVIRONMENTAL SAFETY IS A BIG CONCERN. FORD MOTOR COMPANY NEEDS TO BE CONTACTED AND RESEARCH THIS PROBLEM FOR POSSIBLE HEALTH HAZARDS AND RECALLS. THROUGHOUT THE VARIOUS EMISSION SERVICING COMPANIES, PLEASE NOTE THAT THIS IS COMMONLY KNOWN PROBLEM WITH THE 1990S & NEWER F250 FORDS. PERSONNALLY, I HAVE REPLACED ONE MANIFOLD ON MY 1995 F250 FORD IN SEPT OF 97. AND NEEDING TO REPLACE A SECOND MANIFOLD IN DECEMBER OF 98. IN RESEARCHING THIS, I HAVE FOUND THAT IT IS NOT ONLY A COSTLY PROBLEM BUT ALSO COULD BE AN ENVIRONMENTAL CONCERN AS SOME FOLKS ARE FIXING THESE MANIFOLDS PROBLEMS BY PUTTING ON HEADERS INSTEAD.
