A wheel stud, ford p/n yl3z 1107 ab, on the right front wheel/hub assembly would not tighten to the prescribed 150 ft-lbs torque because it stretched. The wheel stud stretched 0.044" before i stopped trying to torque it up to specification. The wheel stud and nut were replaced. The vehicle was stationary. There was no accident or incident involved. I believe that either ford has overstated the tightening torque or…

Had what appeared to be a slow leak in rear tire. Took it to les schwab tire and they found it was a weld that was failing in the original stock rim. The split was approximately 8 inches long. I then spoke to a local ford dealer who denied ever hearing any knowledge of such a thing and simply said you cannot believe everything you see on the internet after i had googled the issue. He said ford takes these things…

Hubs grinding, vibrating and slowing truck down. Had to replace both too soon for a vehicle like this. And the brake master cylinder went out at a stop sign with no warning then shut the truck off completely. *tr

My ford f-150, 2005 model has a wheel bearing defect that causes bearing failure and brake wobble due to the weak bearings that's on 2004-2009 ford f-150- 2wd trucks. The bearings can't be changed unless you purchase the entire installation (rotors, abs hub bearing and one-time use nut.) ford knows that the bearings are weak but will not authorize a repair unless you use original equipment. Ford put out a bulletin…

After noticing a low tire my driver was attempting to air it up but to no avail and we noticed it was leaking at a weld on the rim. We took it to a dealer and was told it was cracked about a third of the way around the rim where the center was welded to the outer rim. I had to buy a replacement wheel but our concern is that this might happen again. If it had cracked much farther the outer rim would have separated…

While investigating a front tire with an air leak, it was discovered that the outer rim (where the tire bead seats) of the steel oem wheel had split away from the rest of the rim for a circumferential length of over 10 inches near the tire bead sealing surface. It appears that the outer portion of the rim was almost to the point of separating from the rest of the wheel and allowing the tire to dismount from the…

Purchased a 2005 f-150 4x4 ford pick-up truck and immediately felt a strong vibration throughout the truck. Took it back to three different dealerships each one claiming they fix it. The vibration still exists and now the steering wheel is vibrating. I believe this truck is unsafe. I will continue to exhaust all avenues to repair or replace this truck. *nm
