Problems with transmission, front axle and vibration.*mr the consumer has attempted to have the problems resolved approximately 6 times in two years. The consumer is seeking relief under the michigan lemon law.
While driving at 40 MPH left front wheel locked up, causing the front axle to break. Also, there was a broken rotor and a destroyed anti lock brake sensor. Currently, the right wheel bearing malfunctioned.
While driving at 50 MPH clutch did not disengage to change gears. Vehicle was taken to a dealer. *ak the dealer determined that the housing for one of the springs in the clutch pad broke between the sprind and outer housing.
Transmission problems the transmission has had to have 4 major repairs in 1.5 years.
While accelerating and stopping there is a clunk and you can feel it under the truck. The dealer suggested it was the brakes. I had the brakes changed and the rotors and drums checked but it is still having the problem. I recently visited the ford -trucks. Com site to find several cases of this and it apparently is due to an improperly greased drive shaft at the rear bearing. This is a problem that ford should correct due to their negligence in improperly greasing the joint.
Consumer states that clutch pedal stuck to the floor, would not raise. Therefore, consumer was unable to shift gears. Cause unkwown. Please provide further information.
Four wheel drive wont engage at times never know if its lock in even when indicator light says your in four wheel drive .dealer replaced hub but it still does it. Mechanic reported that his bay partners truck does the same thing.they now tell me they believe its a cold weather problem and that they cant diagnose it any futher as temps are to warm .its now been at the dealership (northhampton ford in mass.) for atotal of 12 days for this problem. I have all contacted my district attornies office regarding this matter. Previous to this ford did over $1000 in parts alone warrenty work . At times I have not been able to make it home in three inches snow.
The front "o" rings in the axle fail causing the grease to leak out and the "floating hubs" stop functioning and either lock in 4x4 mode or not. There is now way to see or check this failure and the repair is to replace the hub and bearing assembly. This repair is anywhere between 1200.00 to 1600.00 depending on the dealer doing the job. This is a very common problem for the f250 4x4 since there were three in the shop at the same time as mine. There is only 47000 miles on my truck and this was not covered by warranty since the factory ended at 36000 miles.
I have replaced the transmission 3 times since I bought the vehicle in march of 2000. Now it is out of warranty and needs another transmission the last transmission was put in(october 2002)they said they would warranty the transmission for one year but now they don't want to do it because it has an after market suspension lift and bigger tires (it's been on there since they put the first transmission in and they performed warranty work on it then).
Consumer stated that, while driving the six speed manual transmission into low gear it pins his leg down to the seat, the shift lever comes to far over and down. The dealer said there is nothing wrong with it and that they would replace the shifter but it would not help. Consumer is afraid that this could cause to have an accident.
