The frame broke where the front differential mounts, this let the front axle twist and you can not steer the truck!!! I think this is very dangerous, if you were going over 5 MPH. You could not turn.ford factory rep. Says the truck is out of warranty so not there problem, they will not do anything about it. Ford should fix this at there expense as this a safety concern. How many other ford pick ups have had this same problem but not reported it because they did not how to or who to complain to. The ntsb should look into this very carefully to see if this is a major problem.

I had to replace all of the gears and the inside and outside bearings and seals in the rear end - on a truck that had 87,000 miles. Every dealership I've spoken to has talked about the cheap bearings in the front and rear end on these ford f-150's. 18,000 miles ago I had to fix the front end.
