To whom it may concern. I have a 1993 Ford F-150 pickup truck. I have recently experienced the problem with the fuel system described in the federal safety agency Campaign ID Number 93V125000, the federal safety agency Action Number EA93001. This defect in the fuel pump causes the fuel drawn from the front tank to be returned to the rear tank. In short time the rear tank capacity can be exceeded causing fuel to spill from filler neck into the environment. Not only is this an environmental issue, it is a major safety issue as the fuel could ignite causing a fire that could easily result in severe injury or death. I have contacted Sanderson Ford in Phoenix asking that they repair this problem under the conditions of the recall and they are refusing to do so. I am asking that the federal safety agency instruct Ford to repair this problem as described in the recall. Again, this problem causes raw fuel to spill from the tank into the environment causing both and environmental issue along with a major safety issue. The fuel could easily catch fire resulting in severe injury or death.

The recall 00S57 was not done. This was my husbands vehicle and he has since passed away and when I went to get renewal plates for Kentucky since I have moved I saw the recalls and called Ford dealer. They can fix the 05S28 speed control system modification recall which I have scheduled, however they advised parts for repair are no longer available from Ford. I have not had an issue as yet, however since the recall is engine and gas related which could cause a fire, I would like to get the vehicle fixed. Please advise. Thank you

Started hearing fuel pump stay engaged after turning engine off and could smell fuel during these times. Fueled up rear tank next morning and when I arrived at work and got out with truck still running there was gasoline pouring out from the front gas tank spiller neck at an alarming rate. When I selected the front tank it stopped flowing. Next day while in traffic at light When I engaged the gas pedal and fished tailed due to a puddle off gasoline dumping from truck onto rd. In front of rear tires. Started having poor acceleration and seemed as if truck wasn’t getting enough fuel or lacked power. Still has open recall so I brought it to Ford dealership explain the issue and also that cross fuel flow in those year trucks has a recall for same issue. Trucks been there 2 weeks and I’m being told it’s to be $2700 to replace both fuels pumps and shuttle valves. I showed them video of gas pouring from the truck and showed them fords recall and remedy for issue. They said they will not fix this problem in truck and I must cover cost. This after knowing of recall and seeing a video of fuel spillage will not cover cost. This is unsafe I feel as any source of ignition may cause a fire from immediate gas spillages. Ford said they would over do repair if 12 years from start of warranty date of truck or Under 150k . Truck is under that mileage . But refuse to make repair under prior recall even though this is extremely dangerous situation to be driving truck. Trucks still in shop and I’m awaiting for a response from Ford corporate as I contacted them to explain issue in hopes they would honor repair as I feel it necessary for the safety of myself, family, and those others whom may be hurt in the event an accident occurs.

I just got this truck used and realized it has dual gas tanks but only the rear gas tank works. I put gas in both tanks not knowing that I realized after that the front tank doesn't work... The next morning I noticed gas spilling out from under the truck because some of the gas from the rear tank is going into the front 1 and making it overflow.

Fuel is spewing from the gas tank /cap where you fill it. When the truck is parked the gas cap hisses like it is pressurized. Gas immediately starts pouring out of the gas cap and even spews out. I've taken special care not to overfill either tank. I am concerned this truck is not safe to drive. This occurs shortly after driving, it starts, sputters and then stops.

The federal safety agency recall number: 00v424000 - fuel pressure regulator issues - truck loses power due to lack of fuel and now it is transferring fuel between tanks while driving. I took truck to local dealership in august 2017 when I discovered the recall and was told that the truck is part of the recall but that the part is on back order from ford. It is now january 2018 and still no part. I have replaced both fuel tanks and fuel pumps when I first bought the truck along with having the engine rebuilt. The truck is unsafe to drive due to these issues but I am at loss of what to due at this point since ford is not providing the parts. I feel that the fuel check valves should be replaced by ford since I have already replaced them myself. I discovered the recall on my own in august 2017. I purchased the truck early in 2014 for my son as a high school graduation present and to drive to college. He is now a senior in college and has not been able to drive it to college due to these issues. Ford recall: 00s57
