THIS VEHICLE IS EQUIPPED WITH DIV HEADLIGHTS. WHEN TURNED ON THEY HAVE A DISTINCT VERTICAL LINE THAT RUNS FROM YOUR FAR LEFT VISION TO YOUR FAR RIGHT VISION. BELOW THIS LINE IT IS VERY BRIGHT AND ABOVE THIS LINE IT IS TOTAL DARKNESS. THE LINE RUNS DIRECTLY ACROSS THE CENTER OF YOUR VISION. THIS LINE IS CONSTANTLY BOUNCING UP AND DOWN WITH BUMPS AND IMPERFECTIONS IN THE ROAD. EXTREMELY DIFFICULT TO SEE. WHEN DRIVING THROUGH MOUNTAINS, HILLS AND LOW LINES YOUR VISION IS 100% BLOCKED ABOVE THE LINE. WHEN THE VEHICLE IS DRIVING DOWN A GRADE YOU LOOSE ALL VISION TO THE UPCOMING GRADE. I HAVE REPORTED THIS TO THE FORD MOTOR CO. CUSTOMER RELATIONS DEPARTMENT. I WAS INFORMED THAT THESE DIV LIGHTS WERE APPROVED BY THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT AND THAT IS THE WAY OF THE FUTURE. PLEASE, HAVE SOMEONE DRIVE ONE OF THESE TRUCKS AT NIGHT IN THE HILLS. THANK YOU *TR

I GOT IN MY TRUCK TO START IT AND IT WAS COMPLETELY DEAD. NO FIRE WHATSOEVER. SERVICE TRACTION CONTROL LIGHT WAS ON AND TRAILER PARK LIGHT OR SOMETHING WAS ON. RADIO, WINDOWS, DOORS, LIGHTS, EVERYTHING WORKED. IT JUST DID NOT START AT ALL. HAD TO HAVE IT TOWED. DEALERSHIP RESET COMPUTER. LIGHT STILL CAME ON. TOOK IT BACK A WEEK LATER, BECAUSE THE SERVICE TRAC CONTROL LIGHT WAS COMING ON AND STAYING ON AGAIN. CAN'T FIND ANY THING WRONG WITH IT. THIS IS A BRAND NEW TRUCK. MY LORD. SOMETHING NEEDS TO BE FIGURED OUT WITH IT. WHY PAY FOR A BRAND NEW TRUCK THAT YOU ARE AFRAID TO DRIVE. LUCKY THIS TOOK PLACE IN MY OWN YARD, AND NOT OUT OF TOWN OR SOMETHING. *TR

WHILE GOING UP A STEEP INCLINE, I WENT OFF OF THE GAS TO SLOW DOWN AS I WAS APPROACHING A CORNER. WHEN I GOT TO THE CORNER, I ATTEMPTED TO TURN AND REALIZED I DIDN'T HAVE ANY POWER STEERING. WHEN I LOOKED AT THE GAUGES, LOW OIL PRESSURE WAS DISPLAYED ON THE DASHBOARD AND THE ENGINE WAS NO LONGER RUNNING. THE TRUCK DID RESTART AND I WAS ABLE TO DRIVE AWAY. FORD IS STATING THAT SINCE THERE WEREN'T ANY CODES, THERE IS NOTHING THEY COULD DO. THIS IS A VERY DANGEROUS SITUATION AND COULD POTENTIALLY CAUSE AN ACCIDENT. *TR

WHILE ACCELERATING THE TRUCK WILL MAKE A WHINING/GROANING NOISE COMING FROM THE TRANSMISSION AREA AND WILL GO AWAY ONCE THE TRUCK HAS FINISHED ACCELERATING TO THE SPEED LIMIT. THE WHOLE TRUCK WILL ALSO JUMP MAKING A NOTICEABLE THUD WHILE SHIFTING INTO REVERSE WITH THE TRUCK STATIONARY AND THE BRAKES APPLIED, IT WILL OCCASIONALLY DO THE SAME SHIFTING INTO DRIVE, AGAIN WHILE STATIONARY. WHEN I PARK THE TRUCK ON A INCLINE BIG OR SMALL THE TRUCK WILL MAKE A LOUD BUZZING NOISE COMING FROM UNDERNEATH AND A VIBRATION CAN BE FELT THAT WILL LAST A FEW SECONDS TO A MINUTE, THE SOUND CAN BE HEARD SHIFTING THROUGH P,N,D,R AS WELL. THE LAST ISSUE OCCURS WHEN THE OUTSIDE TEMPS ARE COLD AND I DRIVE THE TRUCK 15-20MINS WITH A AVERAGE SPEED OF 50MPH. I HAVE TAKEN THE TRUCK TO THE DEALER WHO ATTEMPTED TO FIX THE ISSUE TO NO AVAIL. I HAVE SPOKE WITH ANOTHER DEALER'S SERVICE MANAGER WHO WAS NOT VERY HELPFUL IN SOLVING MY ISSUE. I'M CURRENTLY IN TOUCH WITH A FORD REGIONAL CUSTOMER SERVICE REPRESENTATIVE AND IN THE PROCESS OF GOING BACK TO A DEALER. *TR

WAS PARKED IN MY DRIVEWAY WHEN A SECTION OF THE REAR WINDOW EXPLODED. THE VEHICLE WAS WARMING UP(AUTO START) FOR ABOUT 5 MINUTES BEFORE MY DAUGHTER AND I GOT IN TO LEAVE WHEN WE HEARD A LOUD POP. I LOOKED BACK AND NOTICED THE REAR DRIVER SIDE WINDOW WAS SHATTERED. THERE WERE LITTLE PIECES OF GLASS THROUGHOUT THE BACK OF THE VEHICLE AND I'M SURE LANDED ON MY DAUGHTERS HAIR AND CLOTHES.
