Ford F Series 2005 Power Train

Ford F Series 2005 Power Train Review #10261925

FORD F SERIES 2005 car safety problem was reported on Feb 16, 2009.FORD F SERIES 2005, manufactured by FORD MOTOR COMPANY had a problem with POWER TRAIN . truck will not disengage from 4hi and even though it is turned off it will make a terrible grinding sound, which i think has something to do with the transfer case. the light doesn't come on when for 4hi, so i am also thinking there is something wrong with the relay switch.. also our truck vibrates, but has only done it twice, however the truck only has 68 thousands kilometers on it, it is like a brand new truck. we have had it to the ford dealer and they say nothing is wrong with it. are they actually waiting for someone to die in one of these trucks. how many complaints does it take? *tr.Mileage was 36000 miles. Ford F Series 2005 problem was reported in MONTROSE, BC CANADA, 00. Vehicle was not using ANTI-LOCK BRAKES. Vehicle was not using Cruise Control. VEHICLE SPEED: 45 mph.

Ford F Series 2005 Visibility Rear Window Wiper/washer Review #10278150

FORD F SERIES 2005 car safety problem was reported on July 06, 2009.FORD F SERIES 2005, manufactured by FORD MOTOR COMPANY had a problem with VISIBILITY:REAR WINDOW WIPER/WASHER . it seems that the ford motor corp has been installing defective window regulators in many of their trucks and larger suv's. these regulators allow the window to be opened in closed and often fail while the vehicle is in operation. once the part fails, the window crashes down into the interior of the door and cannot be rolled up. this has happened to two of my four windows on my 2005 f-150 truck. i have had to have both window regulators replaced at a cost of $1,000 for total. many of these vehicles are used in the service and law enfrocement industry and several hundred complaints have been filed with dealers. i realize that vehicles cost money over time but this is the first time that two windows within a three week time period have failed. it's obvious that the parts are made cheaply or are defective and that a recall is justified so that the consumer can recoup some of the loss. it may have been cheaper just to replace the entire door for the $ 500 i spent on each window. *tr.Mileage was 43000 miles. Vehicle Identification Number (VIN):1FTPW14505F. Ford F Series 2005 problem was reported in PHOENIX, AZ. Vehicle was not using ANTI-LOCK BRAKES. Vehicle was not using Cruise Control.

FORD F SERIES 2005 car safety problem was reported on Jan 27, 2011.FORD F SERIES 2005, manufactured by FORD MOTOR COMPANY had a problem with ELECTRICAL SYSTEM . the truck had several crank-no start problems. it continued over a period of a few weeks. vehicle finally got to the point it would not restart. it was a little hesitant at times when running and i was afraid it would die on me in traffic. we ran a diagnostic check on vehicle in beginning and retrieved code for the cam sensor. we replaced and it drove fine for one week. that's the point where it would not start. we had towed to dealership and upon their diagnosis has determined that the engine wire harness from the ficm to pcm and to the injectors had shorts in it. i have read on a previous recall # 05v270000, where the ficm wire had to be replaced. i am not sure if it is related, but the dealership has given us a price of $2600.00 to repair. i believe an engine wiring harness should be designed to last longer than 6 years. *tr.Mileage was 167000 miles.

Ford F Series 2005 Engine And Engine Cooling Review #10423148

FORD F SERIES 2005 car safety problem was reported on Sept 02, 2011.FORD F SERIES 2005, manufactured by FORD MOTOR COMPANY had a problem with ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING . i have a ford 2005 f-150 that has a misfire in cylinder number 6 due to a spark plug defect according to the mechanics. the spark plug cannot be removed without breaking as it appears to be fused to the head. it is my understanding that ford manufacturer will not repair or replace this defect at no cost to the consumer. upon further investigation, and judging by the number of consumer complaints with the same issue during the past few years, this problem appears to be a manufacturer's defect and thusly not a consumer problem. the spark plug defect was discovered at the time of emission testing which is required annually under georgia law in order to acquire a vehicle tag renewal. *tr.Vehicle Identification Number (VIN):1FTPW14585F.

Ford F Series 2005 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??
