| This truck has many problems. strarting with the transmission going out, the front right side of the truck there is a distinctive clunk when put into gear; either forward or reverse. then going interior; the door ajar light comes on it thinks that the doors are not shut, but you can slam all 4 doors shut and it still thinks the doors are ajar so that will keep the interior light on while driving. the interior light will go out if you get up to about 20 mph, then when you slow down to under 20mph it will come back on. the warning bell comes on and stays on even when the truck is shut off. next the seat belts will some times work and some times not. either the are hard to pull out or they will not retract. the tailgate cover has warped in not even 1 year after we had it. | |||

| I was taveling on the interstate at approximately at 60 mph when i came upon a pick-up truck that was traveling at approximately 20 mph and rammed into the back end. the ford dealership that i bought the truck from was to do the repair work. their body shop was to get with ford to find out why the airbag did not deploy. the reason they told me was that the other vehicle was moving slightly and that ford's airbags was not designed to go off in those situations. this to me is a feeble answer. | |||
