MY 1998 FORD F-150 STARTED ACTING UP WHEN THE CRUISE CONTROL BUTTONS WERE SET ON. THE CAR WOULD HESITATE AND NOT WANT TO PULL. ONCE WE GOT HOME WE TURNED THE VEHICLE OFF AND DID NOT THINK ANYTHING MORE ABOUT IT. THE FOLLOWING DAY WE WENT FOR A DRIVE AND NOTICED WHAT WE THOUGHT WAS STEAM COMING FROM UNDERNEATH THE HOOD. I PULLED THE VEHICLE OVER AND LIFTED THE HOOD TO INSPECT IT. WHEN I LIFTED THE HOOD I WAS ENGULFED IN FLASH FLAMES. I IMMEDIATELY DROPPED TO THE GROUND TO PUT OUT THE FLAMES. WHEN MY FRIEND HELPED ME OFF THE GROUND THE TRUCK WAS ON FIRE UNDER THE HOOD. WE IMMEDIATELY CALLED FOR MEDICAL ASSISTANCE AND WAS TRANSPORTED TO HOSPITAL VIA LIFE STAR HELICOPTER.

ON FRIDAY 1/23/09 AND AROUND 3PM IT WAS REPORTED TO ME THAT MY VEHICLE WAS IN FIRE. THERE WAS A SMALL FIRE IN THE BACK RIGHT AREA IF YOU ARE STANDING DIRECTLY IN FRONT OF THE CAR, WHICH APPEARED TO BE CAUSED BY THE CRUISE CONTROL MODULE.

I OWNED AND OPERATED A 1998 FORD F150. THERE WAS A RECALL OF THE CRUISE CONTROL SWITCH IN SEPTEMBER, 2005 AS THE FAULTY SWITCH HAS BEEN LINKED TO FIRES IN F150 TRUCKS. IN OCTOBER OF LAST YEAR, I TOOK MY TRUCK TO A DEALER SO THEY COULD PERFORM THE MODIFICATION TO FIX THE PROBLEM, WHICH THEY DID COMPLETE. IT APPEARS FORD'S FIX IS NOT WORKING. MY VEHICLE CAUGHT ON FIRE 6/15/06 AFTER I HAD DRIVEN IT TO WORK. IT APPEARS AS THOUGH THE FIRE HAS DESTROYED THE VEHICLE. I REQUEST THAT ONE OF YOUR EXPERTS COME OUT AND INSPECT MY TRUCK. IT IS CLEAR FROM THE INFORMATION I HAVE GATHERED THAT IT WAS AN ELECTRICAL FIRE. I THINK IT IS IMPORTANT FOR YOU TO KNOW IF THE FORD'S RECALL AND SOLUTION TO THIS PROBLEM IS ACTUALLY WORKING OR NOT. *JB
