Description of the problem	One year ago my 4 wheel drive stopped working. My f-150 was 47 months old and purchased to go in snow and off road. The 4 wheel drive broke and the limited slip rear axle (also defective) only spins the right rear wheel. Now, if you get on wet grass you are stuck and need a tow. I took my f-150 to the ford dealer and they did a $100 diagnostic and said the powertrain control module had failed. Ford dealer said this 4x4 module (integral part of the pcm) was not covered by the 8 year 80,000 mile powertrain control module warranty because the f-150 would still pass emissions testing (the other two thirds of the pcm still worked correctly). The cost estimate started at $1100 to replace the entire pcm, and the dealer was willing to negotiate on the repair price. The repair was not affordable for me at this time. The reason i purchased the truck was to go in the snow, but it is worse than any other vehicle in the snow now without the 4 wheel drive. It can't even get up the slight hill in my neighborhood right now with a few inches of snow, and just spins the right rear wheel with zero traction.
