| Description of the problem | Well after a week or two i noticed like three different things on my new 2013 ford f-150. A smell coming out of the ac and heater, some days its cold and some days it was hot. It was like a burst of rubbing alcohol and it is just like a burst that comes out every now and than some days more than others, also when i come to a stop i notice my brakes make a clapping notice right when i come to a stop, like a fan coming to a stop. Also i notice the truck does not run a smooth as it did the first two weeks. I have taken it in twice, but they say it is okay. I'm very concern of the smell and because i feel something is wrong, because it does not drive as smooth. Am i crazy? |
