Ford F-150 Engine Safety Report | June 01, 2012
Reported on June 01, 2012
| POOR GAS MILEAGE. WINDOW STICKER SAYS 23 MPG HIGHWAY, BEST I EVER GOT IS 16 MPG,WITH CRUISE SET AT 65 MPH ON FLAT LEVEL HIGHWAY. HAD AT DEALER, 4 TIMES, THEY UPDATED COMPUTER, CHANGED TURBO INTERCOOLER AND THEY STILL CANT IMPROVE MY FUEL ECONOMY. AROUND TOWN I GET 12 MPG. BAD TURBO LAG WHEN PULLING OUT LOW POWER, DEALER SAID ITS HOW TURBOS WORK. DOORS RATTLE, SPEAKERS CRACKLE, REAR END SPRINGS MAKE A CREAKING SOUND. 4 WHEEL DRIVE MAKES A LOUD GROWLING, SOUNDS LIKE GEARS ARE NOT MESHED RIGHT. I WOULD NOT RECOMMEND A NEW F-150 TO ANY ONE. NOTHING BUT TRIPS TO THE DEALER AND LET DOWNS. *TR | |
