On july 14, 1993 FORD filed a defect information report concerning fuel tank cross flow leakage on f-series light trucks and cab chassis built from july 22, 1989 through december 17, 1992.the remedy was to replace the fuel pressure regulator and install a check valve between each fuel supply line and fuel tank (2) to repair the supply side fuel cross flow problem (recall 93v-125).odi opened rq98-008 on may 29, 1998 because of the large number of alleged remedy failures and reports of fuel cross flow on vehicles outside of the recall population.based onthe information received from FORD on …

These vehicles can experience fuel transfer from one tank to the other due to a malfunctioning fuel pump.from the information gathered to date, it appears that there can be multiple causes and/or a combination of causes for fuel cross flow and that the recall remedy may be inadequate.further investigation is needed.this investigation is upgraded to ea99-032.click on document search button for additional information.

The contact owns a 1991 Ford F-150. The contact stated that while driving at an undisclosed speed, the rear fuel tank gauge began indicating that the rear tank was losing fuel abnormally fast. After a visual inspection, the contact observed that fuel was flowing from the rear fuel tank into the front fuel tank. No warning lights were illuminated. The vehicle was taken to the dealer, who diagnosed a failure with the fuel pump assembly check valve; however, the dealer declined to attempt to repair the vehicle due to the age of the vehicle. The vehicle was not repaired. After investigating the failure, the contact related the failure to NHTSA Campaign Number: 93V125000 (Fuel System, Gasoline), but was unaware if the VIN was ever included in the recall. The manufacturer was notified of the failure, a case was opened, and the contact was later informed that the VIN was included in the recall and had been repaired already. The failure mileage was 112,000.

THE TRUCK WONT CRANK. WHEN THE KEY IS TURNED OFF AND REMOVED SOME ELECTRICAL SYSTEMS STILL WORK AND CAUSE SMOKING. I HAVE HAD TO DISCONNECT THE BATTERY IN FEAR THE TRUCK WILL BURN DOWN. FORD WAS CONTACTED ABOUT THE ISSUE AND SAID THEY CANT DO ANYTHING BECAUSE THEIR RECORDS FOR RECALLS ONLY GO 10 YEARS. EVEN THOUGH THE TRUCK HAS LESS THAN 84000 MILES ON IT.

THIS ISSUE HAPPENS REGARDLESS IF IN MOTION OR STANDING STILL. IF THE TRACK WAS FIXED VIA A RECALL, THEY OBVIOUSLY DIDN'T DO IT RIGHT OR THE "FIX" DIDN'T FIX THE PROBLEM.

ON AUGUST 24, 2001, A FIRE SPONTANEOUSLY BEGAN UNDER THE HOOD OF MY 1991 FORD F150 PICKUP TRUCK WHILE IT WAS TURNED OFF AND PARKED IN THE DRIVEWAY AT NIGHT. THE FIRE CAUSED EXPENSIVE DAMAGE TO THE VEHICLE AND WOULD HAVE PROBABLY CAUGHT MY HOUSE ON FIRE HAD THE TRUCK BEEN PARKED IN THE GARAGE.

I THEREFORE SOUGHT COMPENSATION THROUGH MY INSURANCE COMPANY. I PAID FOR THE FORD DEALERSHIP TO PERFORM REPAIRS, WHICH WERE NOT DONE SATISFACTORILY. I AM REPORTING THIS NOW BECAUSE THE INCIDENT IS VERY SIMILAR TO RECENT OCCURRENCES THAT HAVE CAUSED DEATHS AND RESULTED IN A MAJOR RECALL. MY VEHICLE IS NOT COVERED UNDER THAT RECALL AND SHOULD HAVE BEEN. THEREFORE, I AM REQUESTING THAT THE RECALL BE EXTENDED TO 1991 FORD F150 PICKUPS AND THAT I RECEIVE SATISFACTORY COMPENSATION AND REPAIRS.*JB
