SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC:FOUNDATION COMPONENTS:DISC:ROTOR
WE'VE BEEN PREVIOUS NEW FORD TRK OWNERS - AND HAVE NEVER ENTAILED SUCH A PROBLEM LIKE THIS. WE FEEL THAT THERE IS MORE THAN ADQUATE REASON THAT FORD SHOULD GIVE PRIORITY ATTENTION TO THIS MATTER. AT GENERAL HIGHWAY SPEEDS, THEN WHEN BEGINNING TO APPLY BRAKES, ALL OCCUPANTS CAN EASILY FEEL VERY HARD ERRATIC TREMBLING BEGIN ON THE FRONT END. WHEN HAVING OUR DEALER CHECK INTO THIS, HE ASSURED US THAT THE FRONT END WAS OKAY, BUT THAT EXCESSIVE HEAT IS CAUSING THE FRONT BRAKE ROTORS TO DISTORT, AND THEREBY NEEDS LATHING/CUTTING - TO CORRECT, AND RID THE PROBLEM OF THE TREMBLING WHEN APPLYING BRAKES. THIS IS THE THIRD TIME THAT WE HAVE HAD TO RESORT TO HAVING THE ROTORS LATHED. OUR TWO PRIOR FORD F-250HD TRUCKS THAT WE'VE OWNED, NEVER DISPLAYED THESE PROBLEMS IN ANY FORM.*AK

SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC:ANTILOCK/TRACTION CONTROL/ELECTRONIC LIMITED SLIP, SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC:FOUNDATION COMPONENTS:DISC:ROTOR
REFERENCE VOQ #854737 WHERE MY SUPPLIED INFORMATION WAS INCORRECTLY RECORDED. WHILE DRIVING AND WHEN BRAKING, THE VEHICLE PULLS LEFT (INTO ONCOMING TRAFFIC) THE SEVERITY OF THE PULL TO THE LEFT IS DIRECTLY RELATED TO THE MEASURE OF THE BRAKING AND VEHICLE SPEED (E.G. LOW SPEED WITH LIGHT BRAKING = MODERATE PULL TO THE LEFT AND HIGHER SPEEDS WITH FIRM BRAKING = EXTREME PULL TO THE LEFT). THE FORD DEALER HAS TURNED ALL THE ROTORS, REPLACED A BRAKE LINE, REPLACED THE PADS, REALIGNED THE VEHICLE AT LEAST THREE TIMES, REPLACED THE CAMBER BUSHINGS TWICE, ONCE WITH FORD FACTORY PARTS AND THE LAST TIME WITH AFTER MARKET PARTS (NON-FORD ADJUSTABLE CAMBER BUSHINGS). REFERENCE ELECTRONIC DEALER SERVICE REPORT, EDSR#17584 GENERATED 05/11/99 BY THE MASTER TECHNICIAN AT JOE COOPER FORD. *AK
