Re: F150 Warning
That website is spiffy, but it is Ford specific. It does not say anything about the automotive world in general. Anybody can stick a biased website up, but without all the facts, its worthless. All automakers at one time or another have had recalls. It doesn't hurt a person to actually go outside into the real world once in awhile. I practically live in junkyards, I go all the time, and I see a wide variety of burned cars. Yeah, Ford may have its issues, but they are not alone, and it is naive to simply damn an entire product line based on one website and a few postings. That is the one downside to the internet, a few people say something and it just has to be true.<br /><br />Hedjug, it wasn't a lesson, it was a statement that there are a lot of things that happen that are preventable if a person takes the time to give things a once over. We are accountble for our own actions, it isn't always someone elses fault. Thats like saying its Fords fault that the motor seizes because a person never changes or checks the oil. I agree that Ford has issues, but so does everyone else. Yes, I rarely suffer breakdowns or malfunctions, because I check my gear out. That is why my truck always runs, my boat always starts at the ramp, etc, but don't damn me because I try to keep the things from happening that most people just let happen. <br /><br />Yes, it was helpful posting this particular problem, hopefully it will cause people to actually pop their hood and look underneath instead of hoping the underpaid lube guy at Wal-mart finds that catastophic wiring harness failure...
