 Description of the problemI ordered a new f-350 power stroke diesel in november. I waited until jan 22 for it to be delivered to me. $65,000. When i went to pick it up at sunrise ford in ft pierce florida, it looked like the wheel hubs were rusted so i looked underneath. I could not believe what i saw. The entire carriage to the drive train was not only corroded and rusted, but holes were developing in the drive shaft, the tie rods, the carriage bolts, the wheel supports, the u-joints... Not surface rust. It was as though the truck parts were taken from a junk yard. The dealer told me they are all like that. Sure enough, when i looked under all the trucks they were all rotted out... Beautiful box put on rotted chasses. The thing is that when you tow tens of thousands of pounds with these "work horses", it is the chassis that needs to be strong and when it is already oxidizing, it is good for nothing. I took back my deposit and began traveling to north palm and other dealers.... Same thing... Rusted and rotted out chasis, chasis parts, drive train and parts and bolts and other components. We made them lift the truck so i could see if it was an old vehicle they were passing off as new.... 9 miles on the odometer, traveled by freight... Not driven... And the year on the sticker in the door was 2014/jan. When i asked what other people do... He said, "no one ever thinks to look underneath.... By the way... The chasis is only warrantied for three years... Then ford washes their hands of it! What happened to america? This needs to be put on the social media. I filmed the entire under carriage and would like to send them to you.
