Ford Ford Truck 2003 Structure Body BumpersFord Ford Truck 2003 Structure Body Bumpers Review #10048975 FORD FORD TRUCK 2003 car safety problem was reported on Nov 28, 2003.FORD FORD TRUCK 2003, manufactured by FORD MOTOR COMPANY had a problem with STRUCTURE:BODY:BUMPERS . as a safety mgr for 23 years, & defensive driving instructor, i feel there is a serious problem with manufacturing trucks with shiny, non textured metal fenders, bumpers, or mud flaps. with most trucks sitting higher than the average car, these bumpers, fenders, and some mud flaps act like mirrors, reflecting headlights directly back into the eyes of following cars, usually at direct eye level. there is no safe distance to back away sufficiently to stop this blinding glare. the only option i have found is to pull off the road to let them get sufficiently far enough ahead and pray another truck does not turn in front of you. i live in utah where every other vehicle is a truck and many of them raised high off the ground. i feel strongly these mirrored bumpers should be prohibited. there is no value added to mirroring such vehicle accessories, however there is a significant safety hazard to all other drivers who must drive behind these trucks. please take action to recall, or otherwise outlaw mirrored accessories!!! thank you for your consideration on this matter. *ak.Ford Ford Truck 2003 problem was reported in TOOELE, UT.

Ford Ford Truck 2003 Service Brakes, HydraulicFord Ford Truck 2003 Service Brakes, Hydraulic Review #10134960 FORD FORD TRUCK 2003 car safety problem was reported on Aug 29, 2005.FORD FORD TRUCK 2003, manufactured by FORD MOTOR COMPANY had a problem with SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC . with less than 23,000 miles on my 2003 ford expedition, i had to replace the front brake pads and rotors to the tune of about $500.00. my brakes had recently begun the infamous squealing sound, so i brought it in for a look. the service advisor at courtesy ford in littleton, colorado would only say that it seemed kind of "early" to have to perform this degree of maintenance on my brake system. he would admit no trend with brake problems for ford expeditions. however, i have since had a conversation with another individual that included her telling me that she had a 2003 ford expedition that needed the same service at 15,000 miles. i just believe that, as witnessed by the level of brake dust that this model releases on an ongoing basis, something is obviously very suspicious. i do hope that no one is seriously injured due to brake failure, etc. and, because i remember well ford's actions (or lack thereof) many years ago regarding the ford pinto, i thought i'd better do my best to create a record of my concern. *nm.Mileage was 22802 miles.

Ford Ford Truck 2003 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??
