FAULTY INTAKE MANIFOLD GASKET LEAKING COOLANT IN PISTON BORE HYDROLOCKED MOTOR OVER NIGHT

WAS PARKING TRUCK AND BEFORE I EVEN KNEW IT THE WHOLE TRUCK WAS ON FIRE ! NO NOT KNOW WHAT CAUSE IT.

TIRES STARTED TO SEPARATE AFTER ONLY A FEW HUNDRED MILES I DO NOT HAVE EXACT MILEAGE AT THIS TIME BUT CAN GET AN APPROXIMATE TIRES FAILED IN THE FIRST 1000 MILES THE BRAND IS FEDERAL ,:TYPE IS COURARGIA M/T SIZE IS LT285-75R17. *TR

VEHICLE HAD FACTORY ORIGINAL FULL SIZE SPARE GENERAL AMERI550 AS WITH LESS THAN 400 TOTAL MILES DRIVEN HAD TREAD SEPARATION, VIRTUALLY ALL THE TREAD CAME OFF AND TIRE STAYED INFLATED WHILE DRIVING AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS. THIS TIRE HAD NEVER BEEN DRIVEN ON PREVIOUSLY AND WAS IN AS NEW CONDITION WHEN I INSTALLED IT JUST TWO WEEKS AGO RIM AND ALL WHEN I HAD A FLAT IN MY REGULAR TIRE. AFTER RECOVERING THE TREAD I FOUND THAT THE RUBBER APPEARED MORE BRITTLE AND HAD SUFFERED SEVERE WEAR IN LESS THAN 400 MILES, THERE WERE BITS AND PIECES OF RUBBER MISSING FROM THE TREAD FROM DRIVING ON MY GRAVEL ROAD, THE OTHER TIRES OF DIFFERENT BRAND REMAIN IN GREAT SHAPE AFTER THOUSANDS OF MILES. I COULD HAVE LOST CONTROL EASILY. VEHICLE IS A 98 F150 2WD. *KB

1998 Ford F150 S/N 1FTRX18L7WNB03063 Mechanic said the frame is rusting badly. Suggested I not pull a heavy trailer or haul heavy loads in the bed.

I have multiple issues that hit all around same time. Body rusted and water leaks getting the bcm wet which causes the truck to go haywire, lights flashing, doors locking and unlocking, radio stays on, caused multiple things to stop working, fuel tank leaks when filling it up where the fuel tank fill hose rusted into the tank, causing multiple vacuum leaks and horrible running conditions and truck dies if not holding clutch, gas and brake at light. Rear trailer wiring plug when it's connected causes multiple lights to stay on even though vehicle not running and everything off. Also melted all wires on 2 trailers causing shorted out lights, replaced clutch 2 times since purchase on 3rd clutch and mechanics not sure why even after showing them I am properly using the clutch system, not pulling heavy loads, or driving it like a race truck. ABS system light won't shut off even though no codes or problems with abs system, multiple vacuum leaks and can't get rid of running lean and bad O2 sensors even after replacing them all.

VEHICLE EXPERIENCES A VIOLENT SHAKING IN THE STEERING AND FRONT SUSPENSION CALLED "THE DEATH WOBBLE". OCCURS AS SPEEDS BETWEEN 40 AND 70 MPH. OCCURS IF ROAD IS SOMEWHAT BUMPY. OCCURS OFTEN AND COULD RESULT IN LOSS OF CONTROL. IT REQUIRES THAT I SLOW DOWN TO ABOUT 5 MPH BEFORE IT STOPS. THIS IMMEDIATE NEED TO SLOW DOWN IF DANGEROUS IF SOMEONE IS FOLLOWING ME (ESPECIALLY A LARGE TRUCK.)

REPORT RECEIPT DATE: JUL 15, 1998 NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 98V161000 COMPONENT(S): FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE , SUSPENSION MY REAR SUSPENSION IS BAD - HAS THIS BEEN TAKEN CARE OF ON MY VEHICLE? GEM MODULE IS HAVING TROUBLE. I HAVE BEEN READING THIS PART HAS CAUSED A LOT OF TROUBLE FOR THIS FORD MODEL.
