SEATS
MY COMPANY PURCHASED THIS TRUCK FOR ME TO WORK IN \ WITH TO PERFORM MY JOB. THE SEAT IS TOO HIGH. MY EYES ARE LEVEL WITH THE TOP OF THE WINDSHIELD AND IT'S IRATAITING TO LOOK THUR THE COLORED PART IN THE TOP PART OF THE WINDSHIELD. SEATING THIS HIGH UP ALSO CAUSES THE REAR VIEW MIRROR TO BLOCK MY VISION IN THIS DITECTION. I CHECKED INTO GETTING A POWER SEAT BUT IT DOES NOT GO ANY LOWER. THE DEALER SAYS IS HE CHECKING THIS OUT. I ALSO HAVE TWO OTHER EMPLOYEES WITH THIS SAME PROBLEM. WE CHECKED THE SEATS IN THE 2001 AND 2000 TRUCKS AND FOUND THAT THE HIGH SEATS STARTED IN 2001. THE SEATS IN THE 2000 TRUCK WERE JUST RIGHT. NEED SOME HELP WITH THIS OR IS IT JUST US? THANK YOU. *AK

IT IS MY UNDERSTANDING THAT THE CLOCK SPRING IN THE STEERING COLUMN IS DEFECTIVE ON THIS PARTICULAR PICK-UP TRUCK. I HAVE TALKED WITH OTHER TRUCK OWNERS THAT HAVE HAD THE SAME PROBLEM. IT INVOLVES THE AIR BAG WARNING LIGHT, THE TURN SIGNALS, AND THE CRUISE CONTROL. IT APPEARS THAT THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE THAT SHOULD BE DEALT WITH BY THE MANUFACTURER. *AK

SEATS:FRONT ASSEMBLY:RECLINER, SEAT BELTS:FRONT:RETRACTOR
WHILE STOPPED AT A LIGHT, WE WERE REAR-ENDED BY A 1984 CHEVROLET VAN. BOTH PARTIES IN THE TRUCK WERE WEARING A SEATBELT AT TIME OF ACCIDENT. BOTH FRONT 50/50 BENCH SEAT BACKS, ONLY ALLOWED TO FUNCTION LIFTING FORWARD, COLLAPSED BACKWARDS. THIS CAUSED TWO PASSENGERS TO FALL BACKWARDS TO THE EXT. CAB PORTION OF THE TRUCK, WHERE NORMALLY OUR KIDS SIT. AT ONLY 6'0" TALL, MY HUSBAND'S HEAD WENT THROUGH THE BACK WINDSHIELD OF THE TRUCK CAUSING NECK AND BACK INJURIES.

STRUCTURE:BODY:DOOR
DRIVERS DOOR HAS A CRACK IN THE SHEET METAL ABOUT THREE OR FOUR INCHCES ABOVE THE BELT MOULDING AT THE REAR CORNER OF THE GLASS. THE DEALER SO FAR HAS REF SED TO TAKE CARE OF THE PROBLEM AND AT FIRST COMPLETELY DENIED THAT THERE WAS EVEN A PROBLEM. CLEARLY THIS HAS BEEN AN ONGOING PROBLEM THAT THEY KNEW ABOUT AS THERE IS A TECNICAL SERVICE BULLETIN DATING 11/98. I HAVE A FRIEND WHO HAS A 1999 F-150 WITH BOTH DOORS CRACKED IN EXACTLY THE SAME PLACE. OBVIOUSLY MY DRIVERS DOOR IS THE ONLY ONE CRACKED ON MY TRUCK BECAUSE IT GETS THE MAJORITY OF USE. I FIND IT DESPICABLE THAT FORD WOULD CONTINUE TO MANUFACTURE THE SAME DEFECTIVE PRODUCT SINCE 1997 AND REFUSE TO FIX IT AS WELL AS DENIE KNOWLEDGE OF ANY PROBLEM. I HAVE SPOKEN TO NUMEROUS AUOTBODY PROFESSIONALS WHO ALL HAD KNOWLEDGE OF THIS PROBLEM. WHATS WRONG WITH THIS PICTURE?*AK

VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL:ACCELERATOR PEDAL
OUTDOOR TEMPERATURE 13 DEGREES F. ACCELERATOR STUCK WHEN ACCELERATING TRUCK WHEN LEAVING HOME. IT SEEMS AS IF ICE HAD AFFECTED THE ACCELERATOR SYSTEM. AFTER HOLDING BRAKE WHILE STILL MOVING FORWARD, I TAPPED ON ACCELERATOR PEDAL SEVERAL TIMES BEFORE IT RETURNED TO IDLE SPEED. IF THIS HAD NOT WORKED, I WOULD HAVE SHIFTED TO NEUTRAL OR SHUT DOWN THE MOTOR AFTER A FEW MORE SECONDS. IS THERE A RECALL FOR THIS PROBLEM? *AK
