| Description of the problem | Noticed rust fell off near front right tire. Had mechanic at work check he said that it is ready to break and the truck is not safe to drive. I have not contacted ford i looked at your site and found many trucks with same problem. Not sure what to do since it is obviously a problem that not only my truck had. I feel ford should be replacing them. My truck also has low milage. |
