1995 Ford F-250 transmission complaints
Page 2 of 2: complaints 11 to 36 of 36, newest first, as owners wrote them.
Front axle out of alignment and of poor design. Nlm
According to service tech at doersch ford in green bay wi, they have replaced several transmissions on these pick up trucks. He also said ford knows that this transmission was not strong enough for the diesel motor, and they have since redesigned the entire thing.
Dealer claimed when we purchased this vehicle that it had an airbag restraint. However according to my owners manual, it should have an SRS marking on the center of the steering wheel. It does not. It also has an airbag indicator light on the dashboard, that should light up whenever the ignition is turned on. It dosent light up. I checked the fuse panel diagram to locate the fuse. It clearly indicates a fused location for the airbag circut. However upon examining the fuse panel, the entire section where the airbag fuse should be, is not there. Leading me to believe that it has been disconnected. I also know for a fact, that this vehicle has been in an accident. I found overspray on the moldings on the drivers side of the vehicle, and a 4x4 decal on the drivers side is missing from the rear panel. I truely believe that the airbag has been deployed, and it was not replaced. My owners manual says that it has one, but the evidence suggests it does not. I feel that if the dealer has purposely mislead us, and is knowingly compromising our saftey. He should be fined or his license should be revoked. I am also furnishing this information to the nys attorney generals office/ used car lemon law. In addition to this is my ongoing transmission problem with this vehicle that I previously reported to you. Thank you.
The vehicle has had transmission/and or electrical problems since it was purchased. Every few weeks the engine computer picks up a troubled code. The code is tcc/or torque converter clutch failure.the vehicle then goes into safe mode,and runs on predetermined values set by the engine computer.the transmission shifts extremely hard during this condition.(automatic e40d). The dealer has been notified, and has failed to correct the problem. I have taken the vehicle to 2 transmission shops, and they cant find anything wrong with the transmission. Since this has been an ongoing problem, my next course of action is to seek relief under the used vehicle lemon law.
While driving in snow at approximately 5 MPH. With 4-wheel drive engaged, driver's side hub locked up and driver lost control of vehicle, resulting in a crash. Dealer contacted, and problem remedied under extened warranty
Problem first came to my attention when I started noticing a clunking noise followed by the front 4 wheel drive hubs ingageing when proceeding from a stop. The problem is quite clearly premature ware, and possibly a safety problem. As the vehicle was technically off waranty (6 months), ford offered to pickup 1/3 of the cost, the dealer 1/3, and myself the remainder with little debate about it. Ford however refused to pickup the remainder of the cost.
While driving consumer would hear loud noises. Then the automatic 4-wheel drive locking hub goes out, causing the vehicle to become a 2-wheel drive. Will be taking vehicle to dealer. *akdealer replaced with manual hubs. * adj
Brakes are defective, extended stopping distance occurs when brakes are applied. Dealer aware of the problem. Also, transmission makes noises and skips. *ak
The front hubs are engaging into four wheel drive when coming out of a stop. Took to dealer and was told the problem was coming from the tie rods and the steering linkage had to be replaced.
Clutch has failed five times, approximately every 20,000 miles.
Master and slave cylinders keep going out and the two work together to make the clutch. Dealer cannot duplicate the problem.
Retaining clip broke allowing plastic rod that connects the clutch pedal shaft to the clutch slave cylinder to disengage.
Defect within transmission caused it to heat up and melt all the parts.
Complete transmission failure, causing jerking while shifting.
The transmission bearings have prematurely failed because of lack of lubrication, causing the transmission to lock up. The dealer has been notified.
Bushing from clutch pedal linkage to clutch master cylinder failed causing the master cylinder plunger rod to slip off pedal linkage. This engages clutch causing unexpected vehicle lunge.
Owner states while driving vehicle the slave cylinder is defective which causes the vehicle to stop at any time. Owner also notes that this part has been replaced 3 different times and the problem still occurs. The plastic around slave cylinder melts.
