Daa go figure normal characteristic is what i was told, bull butter if i had been aware of the problems of these trucks i would not have bought it, you think? And so did the dealer sloan ford along with ford motor company. Blind spot plum scary. To think of how many kids and seniors have to die, be for anything is done?? 60+kids & 50+ people over 70 die every year for $$$$$ years of knowing & years hiding the truth & facts money for one small group&tragedy for the others who make payments with their money and lives so sad back seat is a death trap you can't get out if the front door is closed. My wife could not reach the front door handle from the back seat. Stuck inside without an exit scary; accident with a fire or in water?? The anchor point for the front seat belts are the back doors in a frontal off set pool crash or sideswipe accident you could tear the doors off and the belt is fasten across your body in a rollover how many times does the doors fly open and be torn off the design of the truck allows this to happen press down on the top and the doors will pop open like a banana so cheap hinges & latches we the people need protection from the car companies with this kind of product unforgettable and unforgivable far to trusting far to long the things people will do for money do we have the right to know the whole truth about any problem with that comes with a payment book for five years you think so much noise you can not carry on a normal conversation and ride in the truck two different & distinct noise one on each side of your head you have to almost yell to be understood please help! |
