| We have a 2000 ford f350 vehicle that was recently in an accident and the body shop found that it had prior damage. it is iowa law that the dealer must ask the previous owner about any prior damage and when we purchased this truck from mid states ford in des moines/waukee, iowa they did not notify us of any prior damage. the prior damage make the vehicle unsafe to drive as it has the wrong cab on it and the wrong cab has been welded on, as you can see the welding marks underneath the truck, and also the seat belts have been bolted in and not drilled in, but their are many drilled holes in the bottom of the truck cab. the body shop feels that the truck is unsafe to drive as you never know when the welding could collapse. we have pictures of the previous damage along with two witnesses. we have notified mid states ford and also ford motor company with a long list of things that have happen since june 9th, 2003. mid states ford has not contacted us since dennis contacted then on july 8th and they said they would get right back to us. ford motor company has not called us back since our last note to them last week. we just want some answers before something else happens.*ak | |||
