I have had my truck serviced by the dealership three times since I purchased it in july 2006. The bed vibrates excessively when traveling above 45 MPH, almost as if it is loose. There is also a noticeable groaning from the rear when the truck goes in and out of gear. The service manager verified the problem but does not know how to fix it.
2006 Ford F-150 body complaints
Page 3 of 3: complaints 41 to 44 of 44, newest first, as owners wrote them.
Dt*: the contact stated that there are 10 grooves in the roof of the cab on the vehicle. The contact expressed concern that during the winter, the grooves could fill with water and freeze. When the ice dislodges, it could become a projectile towards other vehicles behind it.
Dt*: the contact stated while unloading gravel the tailgate fell suddenly, severely injuring three fingers on the right hand. The vehicle was taken to the dealer who determined a plastic part in the hinge needed to be replaced.
2006 f150 fx 4 -4x4 super cab 5.4 l. I traded the exact same truck in an 04 model year for this 2006. Ford has refused to fix ( for 3 model years ) : drive train vibration, drive train howl/whine. The 04 was in the shop 6 times with no fix. My 06 in the dealership now. I haven't made the first payment or the first oil change. Problems not present on test drive. Started at 500 miles. Other problems include : brake pedal is mush. It never firms up. It will go to the floor. Doors wont shut without slamming. Super cab doors wont shut tight without pushing top in. My best fuel economy is 13 mpg highway with the cruise on. The "new" f150's are a disgrace to the ford name. $ 38,000 p.o.s. !! My last ford.
