| I purchased a 2005 ford f-350 super duty truck in july of 2005. on july 4 of this year i started to experience problems with the brakes hanging, causing the brakes to overheat and smell, also causing undo strain on the drive line on the truck. the problem has occurred several times and have returned to the dealer to have it fixed every time,(only to have it come back later on), one time at a dealer when i was out of state. that dealer stated that the ford f250 next to mine in the shop had the same problem. my dealer has been in contact with ford motor company about this, as i have been to, without satisfaction on what ford is going to do. i feel this problem is now a safety issue. *nm | |||
