I own a 1999 ford f-150 lariet and the power locks are malfunctioning on both sides. I have a neighbor with a 2001 f-150 and he has the identical problem. The locks work at times and then don't at others. I am only at 45000 miles and am out of warranty but wanted to know if this is a ford recognized flaw.

Vehicle is a 1999 ford f-150 and it has approx. 54,000 miles on it. The evening of march 3 the truck began to run weird and it began to not run correctly.the morning after I brought it to a reair garage and the computer showed that there was a detination in the motor. The ignition coil was bad the mechanic informed me that he needed to replace all eight coils. This cost me 905 dollars. I don't believe that this problem should have occured because it has lower mles. I would like to know if this is an occuring problem with the 5.4 triton v8. I'm not happy with the money that I had to put into my truck, I bought a newer vehicle to waive some cost of vehicle repairs but this was a rediculous amount for a repair.
