The rubber gasoline fuel line that connects the onboard generator to the main fuel tank cracked and leaks gasoline onto and beneath the vehicle. The leaked gasoline may not be detected and may pose a risk of a vehicle fire if ignited from exposure to flame, sparks, hot surfaces, etc. The part of the hose over the tank is inaccessible and cannot be easily changed.

While driving the cab mount that connects to the frame broke and caused temporary loss of control. The dealership indicated that the mount broke because of too much stress on the weld.
Nar 06/05/2003 *mr the consumer had a large leak in the fuel line causing damage to the motor.
3-4 inches of play in the wheel is too much. In a windy situation you must turn the wheel that far to countesteer and by that time you have nearly changed lanes. Ford has replaced the steering gear box and tells me that ist is within specs.
Head lamps sockets are not wired correctly causing low beams inoperable. Yh
