| This complaint involves 2 ford f350 super duty trucks. one was a 1999 and the other is my present 2002. both vehicles showed signs of defective rotors....probably warping. the 1999 needed to have the rotors turned at approximately 19,000 miles. i traded that truck in for my present 2002 f350 super duty. surprise.....surprise this vehicle has recently turned 20,000 miles and the rotors are now warped. yippie!!!! i believe this monday june 23 the rotors will be unceremoniously turned. perhaps ford should address this problem before someone suffers an injury or a fatality. *nlm | |||

| Read bottom to get safety concern: called ford this morning, and verbally informed them of the problem with the rotors on my f350, and they said that they would call back the next day. received a call in 2 hours and was informed that the only thing that ford can do is resurface warped rotors unless the rotors do not meet ford | |||
