I only have 8000 miles on it, and the steering wheel is shaking when I touch the brakes. It also has squeaked from the day I bought it. I took it back to the dealer, they didn't hear the squeak. It is only when I back up.

Driving down the i94 freeway in michigan with my wife, 2 children, 7 and 5,going about 70 MPH and heard a noise like a muffler dragging or something. Immediately pulled over and found my gas tank dragging under the truck. Front strap rusted and broke off and tank was being pushed forward, almost grinding all the way through! The tank was being held up by the plastic rear strap holder and the gas filler tube. The back strap was also rusted through! Had to jack up the tank with bottle jack and pieces of 2x4 found along the freeway. Waited for father in law to bring ratchet straps to lift up very heavy full tank while lying on my back on the freeway. My family was terrified!

Engine experienced failure - when dealer tried to replace engine told it was no longer made. It was reported to my ford dealer that particular "high performance" engine is not placed in e-150. However, in this case it was. Have also been informed that he "clock spring" in the steering colum needs to be replaced. This was an intermittent problem for a number of years. Finally became constant issue at about 95,000 miles. Horn ceased to function, ab light stayed in flashing mode, cruise control inoperable. Brakes have been replaced numerous times on van, starting at less than 25, 000 miles. Idle assembly replaced 3 times due to constant squealing. Fuel pump had to be replaced at approx 95 000.
