Bought a used ford f-150 equipped with wilderness at's. Steering pulled to the right. On 7-13-00, took it to have the front end alligned. Was told the truck would never drive right with those tires. A month later firestone recalls but not the tires I have. Now firestone is replacing recalls with the same bad tires that I am stuck with.( dot number: w2hlipy347 tire size: 23575r15 )

At less thn 1500miles the coumputor had to be replaced due to the idle being so rough. The replacing of the computor did not solve the problem and the truck idles so rough that at times it will cut off at a stoplight or set there and just shake. The dealer said it was a normal problem and they could not fix it. That was problem #1. The second problem was the brakes started shuddering before I had 10,000 miles on the vehicle. The dealer turned the brakes and took off the front hubs and turned the rotors and replaced the front brake shoes. This problem was fixed. The major problem with the vehicle has been the automatic front locking hubs. In making moderate turns to the left or right the front hubs will sometimes engage by themselves causing the vehilce to pull to the left or right with no notice. Also the front locking hubs will at times not engage when put in 4 wheel drive , this has caused several dangerous situations when the 4-wheel function was extremely necessary. One example was going up a snow covered road ,pulling a trailer with a motorcycle on it. The automatic hubs just on their on disengaged causing the vehicle to stop it's forward progress and to start slipping down the hill with the brakes all locked. What is bad is that I have contacted armstong ford and they said they have never had a problem with automatic hubs. This is a total lie. The car part dealers around this area have told me that one of their fastest moving replacement parts is kits to convert from automatic locking hubs to manual. Ford has known of the problem of the 1995 and 1996 ford 4-wheel drive vehicles but has not acknowleded the problem. My truck was taken to the dealer for repair of the 4-wheel autmatic hubs while under warranty and they said they were fine. This was when the vehicle had about 28,000 miles. The vehicle has now only got 32,000 miles on it but I am going to try to change out the autmatic hubs to manual. I am pissed!!!!
