Ford F-250 Sd 2001 Tires Tread/belt Review #10088731 FORD F-250 SD 2001 car safety problem was reported on Aug 05, 2004.FORD F-250 SD 2001, manufactured by FORD MOTOR COMPANY had a problem with TIRES:TREAD/BELT . on or about august 3rd, 2004, i had my original equipment tires, on my 2001 ford f250 truck rotated and balanced at a reputable front end service facility in redding, california, in preparation for a trip to san diego. the tires were firestone steeltex radial truck tires tires. all four tires were original equipment and had less than 35,000 miles. on interstate 5, 5 miles south of redding, my son was driving the vehicle and the right rear tire experienced tread separation approximately 60 miles per hour. the separation caused damage to my fender and paint. we put the spare tire on and continued the trip. when we reached elsinore, on interstate 15, the left front tire experienced tread separation, again at freeway speed. this time the exploding treads caused more severe damage (estimated at $4,500 excluding tire replacement). two original equipment firestone truck tires, with less than 35,000 miles, experiencing violent and dangerous tread separation within less than 500 miles, under exactly the same conditions, under circumstances that might have produced fatal results. fortunately the tires retained air, preventing the vehicle from rolling, firestone's warranty does not cover original equipment tires. ford's warranty is good for three years or 36,000 miles, which ever comes first. my three years was up in may of this year. i was forced to buy $700 worth of tires prematurely and i now have $4,500 damage to my vehicle. firestone has a dark history of producing dangerous tires subject to exactly the same kind of failure i experienced. why hasn't something been done to correct these failures? is there some compensation available from ford or firestone when these failures are clearly due to manufacturing defects and ford continues to contract for these defective tires?.0 person(s) were injured. 0 person(s) died.Mileage was 35075 miles.

Ford F-250 Sd 2001 Engine And Engine Cooling Exhaust System Manifold/header/muffler/tail PipeFORD F-250 SD 2001 car safety problem was reported on May 20, 2001.FORD F-250 SD 2001, manufactured by FORD MOTOR COMPANY had a problem with ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING:EXHAUST SYSTEM:MANIFOLD/HEADER/MUFFLER/TAIL PIPE . i purchased a new ford f250 super duty truck in may, 2001. i almost immediately smelled exhaust fumes coming from underneath the front of the truck- fumes which smell much like that of a lawn mower. the exhaust coming from the end of the tailpipe did not have this smell. after 6 months, i brought the truck back to the service department in my place of purchase, bill marsh ford in newtown, pa. the shop foreman denied smelling any fumes and, without having looked underneath at the exhaust system, stated that there was nothing wrong with my truck. a year later i returned for the same problem. i had him document this visit, but not the first one. their consensus remained the same. for the first time the other day, i crawled under my truck while it was running, seeking an exhaust leak. and that's exactly what i found. recently, my truck's warranty has expired and i still have this problem. today, bill marsh ford service has looked at the problem based on what i found. i now have an appointment with them to have the defective part of the exhaust system replaced. while it is one thing to have to pay for something that they could have fixed when it was new, or that should have been put together right and tested at the factory, i have a bigger concern. i feel this is a safety hazard, since the exhaust fumes come into the truck through open windows and the vents. it is also an environmental issue since the leak is in front of the catalytic converter. i cannot see how i was allowed to drive under these conditions after i reported smelling the fumes, or how the truck was even allowed to pass inspection if the exhaust system was completely checked. now that i have identified the source of the problem which has plagued my truck from day one, and the service department has admitted that there is a correctable problem, i wish to pursue any further action necessary for such a case. thank you! *jb.0 person(s) were injured. 0 person(s) died.Mileage was 0 miles.

(i only have 23,400 miles on this truck and have had no other tire incidents). i had to remove the tire which stayed inflated minus its complete outer shell in order to entangle and remove the outer shell portion of the tire from the brake/axle assembly. the main steel brake line was not broken as were other rubber lines to the brake assy. i am awaiting an evaluation from ford on the front left wheel alignment and brake assembly/lines condition. ford had no recall on the tires and at first firestone service manager promised to replace all of my tires free of charge because there was a recall on that firestone tire. the next day, once they replaced the tires they came in and advised me that the recall did not match the serial number on my tires and told me then that i would have to pay for the replacement. to compensate me for their mistake on the recall they told me that they would not charge me for the labor portion of the replacement if i would pay for the tires. i was not about to drive on the removed tires again and was between a rock and a hard place, so i paid the bill. while cash layout is an issue here the real issue is poor tire performance that came within a heartbeat of killing me and many other innocent people. *tr.0 person(s) were injured. 0 person(s) died.Mileage was 23400 miles.

Ford F-250 Sd 2001 Reports
my 95 ford exploere engine surges when turn my air conditioner on Ihave a 1994 ford probe which has started to idle very low and stalls at times. It is a 4 cyl. w/ air and a 5 speed. any ideas? I replaced the fuel filter, air flow meter and added HEAT to gas tank to dry and clean fuel system. I think my pcv valv should a standard transmission truck start when it is in gear without the clucth engaged? should a 2005 standard transmission ford ranger start when in gear without the clutch engaged? 96 Ford F250 Emergency brake lever gets caught on the auto adjustment spring, causing brakes to be permanently engaged, also allowing the parking break lever to rub against the hub, which can cut through over time. try pushing the pedals button closer to you. you must have the pedal adjustment button to the left of the radio, looks like a foot, that brings the pedals more inward towards the driver. hope it helped. or look carefully if a wire has corroded. it i would check ur multi switch on ur stearing colum on the pedal whats the sound Just bought an '06 E-350 van. Left d'ship got on highway and noticed shimmy when I got to 60....same problem???? that happened to me last night! If you rock the car back and for while shifting then it should release the safety lock! why does it take turning off the veh. while pulling in on the shifter arm, them starting it again while still holding it inwards ever so slightly??
