Description of the problem	I started experiencing a growling and hissing noise coming from the rear of my 2004 ford f150 xlt at approximately 84,000 miles. The noise was most prominent between 20 to 35 mph. The dealership inspected the vehicle and found the pinion, ring gear and four bearings to be in need of replacement. When i inquired what would cause these parts to fail i was told it was "due to no fault of my own". Parts were replaced and i do have all of the replaced parts in my possession. I talked to the dealership and corresponded with ford motor company customer service regarding this incident. Ford motor company was unwilling to assist in any way to either fully or partially reimburse me the $1300 repair bill due to the fact the 75,000 mile extended warranty had elapsed. This vehicle has never been used to tow anything and has never been abused. I have owned new vehicles and personally put 150,000+ miles on them without ever having any type of rear differential failure.
