- What is wrong
- Vehicle description: f-super duty stripped motor home chassis because they may have a missing or partially installed brake pedal to master cylinder pushrod retaining clip.
- Risk

- Remedy
- Dealers will inspect the retaining clip installation. Missing or partially installed clips will be properly installed. In addition, dealers will also inspect vehicles for lower than intended wheel lug nut torque; incomplete transmission shift cable installation; steering column shift lever bracket bolt torque lower than intended; steering gear bracket fastener torque lower than intended; and lower steering column yoke bolt torque lower than intended.

Brake line failure. Rubbed hole in brake line.
30000 both front rotors were warped, and both front bearing seals were leaking. Rotors were turned and discs were replaced at 43000, rotors were warped again and had to be turned.
Transaxle bearing failed left side, causing vehicle to lose control both front rotors were warped, and had to be turned at 30000. Had to be turned again at 35000, and had to be replaced at49000.
When the brakes are applied you can not steer the truck, I complained to nthsa in 1999 I had a very close call, the other auto moved just in time, I could not turn with the brakes applied.
While backing and applying brakes at the same time on a hill,you are not able to turn the steering wheel.also during a panic stop the steering wheel locks up,this is a very dangerous condition.dealer says this is normal for the ford superduty truck.I dont see how this can be normal if you cannot turn the sreering wheel while appling the brakes.
Loss of steering would occur whenever brakes are applied, it forced vehicle to wander across the road; vehicle has been in and out of dealer shop on several occasion, and informed consumer that they cannot correct the problem. *ak consumer states the hydroboost system prohibits steering while braking in most hard braking/emergency situations, when full brakes are applied the steering system is rendered inoperable.
From date of purchase severe vibration throughout chassis-has had extensive work and still vibrates so severely afraid to drive it and seals and components have failed due to vibration-had in dealer 4 times. Also are replacing front tie rods on recall. Internet is full of people with identical problems on these chassis.
I orderd my truck with 4 wheel ABS-the dealer said it was standard equipment-the dealer paperwork from ford says it is standard equipment-when the truck came in the window sticker says it has it on the truck as standard equipment-it does not have 4 wheel ABS. This is a safety problem for me because I orderd ABS and the truck was designed for ABS.( dot number: ? Tire size: lt26575r16 )
Steering system: when vehicle is first started or drive on cold day there steering system is extremely difficult to turn. Also when brake is applied steering wheel will stop at a half of a turn. Excessive effort is required to turn. 2. Brake rotors will sometimes vibrate when brake is applied. Also anti-lock will turn on and drasticaly increase stopping distance. 3. Transmission will sometimes not let me select first or second gear. Vehicle must be in low or third, then shifted back into first to get going.
