| Description of the problem | There is already a tsb for the problem but ford should really recall the cam phasers on the 2004 and newer f150's. Most people in this economy cannot afford to throw 2 grand into there car to have a factory defect fixed and ford won't step up to the plate. I have owned numerous ford's in the past and will never buy one again because of their lack of being a good company. I'm sure because the problem is on there number one engine they don't have the money to cover it and don't care that they'll loose half those customers. |
