| Problems with 2001 ford f150 tire equipment.*mr the new spare tire was removed from the undercarriage to used as a replacement for a front tire. when the tire was examined the consumer noticed several grooves about 3/8 of an inch deep had been rubbed into the sidewall of the spare. the tire agency did not recommend using the tire therefore the consumer kept the old front tire. the tire manufacturer was contacted and indicated that the grooves in the tire were cosmetic and that the tire was safe to use. the consumer believes there is a design flaw in the spare tire holder under the vehicle. *nm | |||

| I had some warrant issues with ford motor corporation. trim around windshield,faded grill and base not working on radio. the biggest problem has something to do with the ac and emissions. i turned on the ac and the truck started to run bad jerking and sputtering. took it too ford and they replaced a sensor. this summer the first time i turn on my ac and the same problem this time its not covered by warranty. i haven't put 14k miles on the truck. does emissions have some type of expectations set by the epa or dot. it cost $400. to get sensor replaced. i cant afford to replace a sensor ever summer i turn on my ac. *nm | |||

| This may be a moot point because the truck (2001 f-150 supercrew xlt 4wd) i had owned (traded it in for a 2003 ford supercrew which also exhibits very similar problems) had serious problems with the steering in addition to the driver seatbelt becoming disengaged while driving normally. i could not understand why the seatbelt would disengage all by itself. i even had witnesses to the fact. i asked for the service to address it; however, they could not duplicate the problem. this is serious as what are seatbelts for in the first place. also had some problems with the paint cracking or spidering. ford regional personnel from denver wanted to repaint the vehicle. however, they could not determine how it would be accomplished. this went on for over 4 months. that is one of the main reasons in addition to the steering problems described previously i had get rid of the problem supercrew i had purchased. *la rq04011.*pco owner granted permission to release info_*pco | |||
