FORD F SERIES (LIGHT) 2001 car safety problem was reported on June 02, 2003.FORD F SERIES (LIGHT) 2001, manufactured by FORD MOTOR COMPANY had a problem with ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING:ENGINE . on this date i was summoned to pick up my 2001 ford svt f 150 pickup from mc gilvray ford in athens, tx after replacement of my engine valve lash adjusters had been made in an attempt to stop right side engine ticking. the vehicle still made the noise and i got the mechanic to listen. i asked him if they checked the spark plugs because they are known to loosen on this type engine due to poor engineering. the mechanic dismissed my concern and informed me of that they didn't know what the noise was and that i'm supposed to drive it a while and see if the noise lessens. 1 week later this same vehicle blew a spark plug out thus stranding me on the highway. i believe it to be unjust that ford motor company can sell a defective product to their customer and not fix the problem. this is a widespread problem in the engine and it would be proper for ford motor company to replace the product with one that will not fail again. supposedly there is an improved version of this engine head, but there's no guarantee that my head will be replaced with this newer type. the other head now will also be sitting there waiting to blow also. *nlm.Mileage was 26500 miles.

FORD F SERIES (LIGHT) 2001 car safety problem was reported on Jan 16, 2012.FORD F SERIES (LIGHT) 2001, manufactured by FORD MOTOR COMPANY had a problem with ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING . i have a 2001 ford pickup with 116,000 miles that i have babied since i purchased it just this week i had a spark plug blow out of the head, just so happened i was 45 miles away from home, so a wrecker charge was due, took my truck to my usual repair shop but they said they couldn't fix the problem. so i then had to find someone else, anothe wrecker charge. ford must know from all the complaints that this is a big problem and very costly. ford should recall all vehicles with aluminum heads and install a steel sleeve in all spark plugs to take care of this problem, they are saving tons of money with this type of faulty engine. i had considered buying a new ford pickup, but this just might have changed my mind. the price of vehicles these days, many people like myself have to drive their vehicles serveral years, we can't afford a new vehicle with the price of gas. the poor middle class is almost a thing of the past, if you're not making 100,000 a year you're hard pressed to keep your head above water. someone needs to stop the things that ragan started with his trickle down policies and fix the problem. keep the republicans out of office and let some good people work for the middle class for once..Mileage was 116000 miles.

FORD F SERIES (LIGHT) 2001 car safety problem was reported on Jan 14, 2012.FORD F SERIES (LIGHT) 2001, manufactured by Ford Motor Company had a problem with SEAT BELTS . while shifting about in the driver's seat to back up and look rearward to guide the vehicle in reverse, the driver's seat belt unexpectedly came unbuckled and began to retract. i thought that i must have been at fault and not properly buckled it even though the normal warning lite and sounds indicatiing an unbuckled seat belt were not evident. owners began to "tug" the belt after latching it each time to ensure proper closure and verify buckle engaged. the same events, usually encountered while shifting position in the driver's seat, happened repeatedly even though buckle's initial engagement had been test verified by the driver each time. we were obviously concernd that in any accident, that belt might disengage and cause us increased harm as a result. we took to dealership and asked if any recalls or customer complaints had prompted the manufacturer to fix stated issue with safety equipment. champion ford (an autonation dealership) in houston on katy freeway stated no known issues or complaints. being a master certified technician for over 20 years myself, i asked them to contact manufacturer on our behalf ask for assistance to prevent these issues, which was denied by ford and no assiatnce provided. i theorized and inspected the mechanisms myself and requested they provide me, at our cost, the driver's side buckle mechanism that bolts to the floor on the inside edge of the driver's seat. i installed the component myself and have not had a single issue subsequent to that installation proving beyond a shadow the buckle mechanism is defective, both in not warning us and physically not engaging 100%. i waited this long to ensure the issue was resolved, and having moved our home, to again locate that replacement part which would be available to nhtsa at no cost, or ford (at replacement value i paid) for inspection. part number 1l7z 7861203 aag.0 person(s) were injured. 0 person(s) died.Mileage was 65000 miles.
