#10259862February 25, 2009
FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE
FUEL FROM REAR TANK OVERFLOWED TO FRONT TANK WHICH LEAKED OUT EXCESS FUEL. OCCURRED ONCE BEFORE REPAIRS. DID A SEARCH FOR THE ISSUE AND FOUND THAT THERE WAS A SECRET OPEN WARRANTY COVERING THE ISSUE, CALLED FORD AND GOT 'PERMISSION' TO HAVE IT REPAIRED. THE FIRST REPLACEMENT WAS WORSE ACCORDING TO THE SERVICE MANAGER AT FRANK JACKSON IN SANDY SPRINGS GA. SO I HAD TO WAIT A COUPLE MORE DAYS TO GET THE NEW ONE. IT SEEMS FINE NOW. BUT HOW MANY MORE OF THE SENSORS OR WHATEVER IT'S CALLED ARE BAD THAT THEY HAVE IN STOCK TO REPLACE EXISTING FAULTY ONES? *TR

SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC
THE FRONT DISC BRAKE CALIPERS DO NOT RETRACT AFTER APPLYING THE BRAKES, FRICTION FROM THE BRAKE PADS CAUSES THE BRAKE FLUID TO BOIL EFFECTIVELY RESULTING IN NO BRAKE OPERATION, THIS HAPPENS EVERYTIME THE VEHICLE IS LEFT SITTING FOR ABOUT A MONTH, RUST DEVELOPS ON THE SLIDER BARS WHICH PREVENTS THE CALIPERS FROM RETRACTING TO THE RESET POSITION.
