 Take a look a my vehicle history, i baby my truck - never used off-road. i have replaced several items that i feel should have been fixed by ford. i had to buy a warranty that cover most of the stuff. some parts with defects that were replaced. most replaced at 40,000-80,000 miles 1.) transmission completely replaced 2.) rearend replaced 3.) i'm on my third set of all 4 ball joints 4.) tie rods, tie rod ends (replaced twice now) 5.) coil 6.) headlight housing (3-4 times) 7.) brakes, numerous things worked on and replaced dealership was never able to stop the thumping noise that is still there, said it was normal (not) 8.) idler arm (replaced twice) 9.) sunroof switch replaced twice, reported loud bang when opening. a&b kia said it was normal - no, now it is completely broke and will barely open and have to force closed. 10.) sideview mirrors vibrated 11.) abs sensor replaced 12.) keyless entry replaced 13.) steering bearings replaced 14.) back bumper is rusting these are just some of the things i can remember right off hand. i've got all receipts. i take care of this truck - wash and wax once a week by hand (unless really bad weather) then i just take it to the car wash automatic or actual people washing. keep inside just as nice. if you want to check out a vehicle for safety/recall information you should start with mine. *ak

 I was cited by florida highway patrol for improper equipment on these tail lights (factory ford f150 svt lightning tail lights). i would like to know if the original equipment tail lights for the 2001 f150 lightning have been approved by nhtsa, as the officer said that is the standard they use. in addition, i would like some reference as to where i can obtain this information for my records to deliver to the police department and the court when addressing this ticket. *ak
EXTERIOR LIGHTING - TURN SIGNAL
04/12/2004200108/01/2001
 I have 2001 ford f-150 pickup truck. the problem is with the turn signals. they cancel after you turn them on if you turn the wheel to the left or right. it takes very little movement of the wheel to cancell the turn signal. if it would only cancell if you turned in the direction of the turn it would be okay. *ak
