Description of the problem | On april 21,2007 my 2001 f150 was sitting in the front yard after being driven for about 30 minutes that morning and started a fire. In no time the truck was a total lose. Was living in gulfport,miss. After the storm (katrina) every thing was all messed up. I had no insurance on the truck . I thought since there was a recall on my truck i could work things out with ford . As time went by and all the paperwork fielded out as ford requested,they sent me a letter saying they needed 90 days to have their engineers check my components. 90 days went by still no response from ford. Then i received a letter from ford saying it wasn't their fault. As of right now,i'm at a stand still needing help with this matter. |
