| Dt: the contact owns a 1999 f350. had the dealer check the speed control deactivation switch. could not tell the part number,but it was the same one being used on the ford/bronco that was being recalled under nhtsa campaign 05v388000. it was replaced. the contact has the old part. would like the f350 model be added to the recall because of the part number on the speed control deactivation switch that the contact found on truck. *ak | |||
