SUSPENSION:REAR, SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC:ANTILOCK/TRACTION CONTROL/ELECTRONIC LIMITED SLIP, ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING:EXHAUST SYSTEM, ELECTRICAL SYSTEM:IGNITION
I WAS VERY HAPPY WITH THIS TRUCK FOR THE FIRST 5 YEARS. BUT AFTER THAT EVEN WITH TAKING GREAT CARE OF THE TRUCK IT STARTED TO FAIL THE ALTENATOR....$400,REPLACING 2 EXHAUST TUBES FOR EMISSIONS $450,REAR SPRING SHACKELS AND MOUNT $450, THE TRANS MISSION IS NOW FAILING COST NOT KNOWN YET, NEVER BEEN IN AN ACCIDENT BUT DOORS DON'T LINE UP ANYMORE WATER LEAKS IN,LOWER SHEETMETAL OF TRUCK BED RUSTING THROUGH PAINT EVEN WITH BEING WAXED MANY MANY TIMES,VENT WINDOWS LEAK AND ARE RUSTING, I KNOW VEHICELS NEED ALOT OF CARE BUT I THINK THE WORST PROBLEM WAS THE RUSTING OUT OF THE REAR SPRING MOUNTS AND SHACKELS THIS IS A REAL DANGER ,I HAVE NEVER HEARED OF THIS HAPPENING TO ANY VEHICLE. I KNOW OF TWO OTHER 93 F 150'S WITH THE SAME PROBLEM. I HOPE SOMEONE CAN GET THE WORD OUT TO OTHERS WITH 1993 F 150'S SO THEY CAN HAVE THIS CHECKED OUT FOR THEIR SAFETY.*AK

#751968September 9, 2001
SEATS:FRONT ASSEMBLY:HEAD RESTRAINT
MY FORD F-150 SUPERCREW 4-DOOR PICKUP TRUCK DOES NOT HAVE HEAD RESTRAINTS IN THE REAR 60/40 SPLIT BENCH SEAT. THIS IS A SAFETY CONCERN AS REAR SEAT PASSENGERS WILL HIT THEIR HEADS ON THE REAR GLASS IN A CRASH. NEW TRUCKS OF THIS MODEL ARE NOW REDESIGNED AND HAVE REAR HEAD RESTRAINTS. MODELS MANUFACTURED EARLIER DO NOT. WHEN I CALLED FORD CUSTOMER SERVICE TO COMPLAIN OF THE SAFETY CONCERN OF HAVING NO REAR HEAD RESTRAINTS AND TO ASK FOR THE NEW REDESIGNED SEATS, THEY SAID THEY WOULD NOT REPLACE THE SEATS. THEY ARE IGNORING OWNERS WITH MODELS MANUFACTURED BEFORE THE NEWLY REDESIGNED REAR SEATS. FORD ALSO REDESIGNED THE FRONT SEATS TO NOW INCLUDE HEAD RESTRAINTS INSTEAD OF THE OLD DESIGN OF TALLER INTEGRATED HEAD RESTRAINTS. I BELIEVE THIS IS ALSO A SAFETY CONCERN IN THAT I CANNOT ADJUST THE FRONT SEAT HEAD RESTRAINT TO PROPERLY PROTECT ME IN A CRASH. I ALSO WISH TO HAVE NEW FRONT SEAT CAPTAIN'S CHAIRS FROM THE NEWLY DESIGNED MODEL'S FRONT SEATS.
