1994 Ford F-150 complaints

THE STEERING BOX SHAFT HAD PITTED AND THE SEAL CAME OUT WHICH CAUSED THE POWER STEERING FLUID LEAKED OUT OF VEHICLE. THE CONSUMER HAD A NEW SECTOR SHAFT AND SEAL INSTALLED THEN TWO YEARS LATER THE SEAL WENT OUT AGAIN. THE CONSUMER ASKED THE TECHNICIAN WHY THIS CONTINUED TO HAPPEN AND THE EXPLANATION HE RECEIVED WAS THAT IT HAD TO DO WITH THE DESIGN. *AK *NM

AT 2:00 A.M., ON AUGUST 3, 2004 MY 1994 F150 XLT EXTENDED CAB 4X4 STARTED ON FIRE. ALONG WITH IT I LOST MY GARAGE, A 1999 PONTIAC GRAND AM THAT WAS SITTING NEXT TO THE F150 IN THE DRIVEWAY, AND A 1995 CHEV LUMINA MINIVAN THAT WAS INSIDE THE GARAGE, PLUS NUMEROUS TOOLS, ANTIQUES, FURNITURE, TOYS, LIFE TIME MEMORABELIA ETC.. THERE WAS ONLY FIRE COVERAGE ON THE 1999 GRAND AM AND NOT ENOUGH INSURANCE TO COMPLETELY REBUILD THE GARAGE. THE INSURANCE COMPANY BROUGHT IN A FIRE SPECIALIST WHO DETERMINED THAT THE FIRE DEFINITELY STARTED AT THE TRUCK, BUT WAS UNABLE TO DETERMINE THE CAUSE. THE TRUCK HAD NOT BEEN DRIVEN FOR 2 TO 4 DAYS PRIOR TO THE FIRE. *JB

WHILE DRIVING 20 MPH CONSUMER NOTICED FLUID LEAKING FROM UNDERNEATH THE VEHICLE. CONSUMER WAS ABLE TO MAINTAIN CONTROL OF THE VEHICLE, AND DROVE IT TO A BODY SHOP. MECHANIC DETERMINED THAT THE FUEL PRESSURE REGULATOR AND CHECK VALVES NEEDED TO BE REPLACED DUE TO EXCESSIVE FUEL IN ONE TANK. THIS INFORMATION WAS PROVIDED BY JULIAN TORRES SON JESSE TORRES.*AK THE CONSUMER FILLED BOTH THE FRONT AND BACK FUEL TANK WITH GASOLINE. THE VEHICLE WAS 60 MILES AWAY WHEN THE CONSUMER NOTICED THE FUEL GAUGE GOING DOWN FASTER THAN NORMAL.THE CONSUMER. WHEN THE CONSUMER REACHED HIS DESTINATION HE NOTICED THE FUEL LOST AMOUNTED TO 9 TO 13 GALLONS. HE STEPPED OUT OF THE VEHICLE AND NOTICED FUEL RUNNING DOWN THE FENDER TOWARDS THE GROUND. FUEL WAS LEAKING FROM THE FRONT FUEL TANK FROM AROUND THE GAS CAP.

MY 1994 FORD F-150 LIGHTNING SEEMS TO HAVE THE SAME TYPE OF PROBLEMS REPORTED BY OTHERS IN THE COMPLAINT DATABASE ON THIS SITE. I HAVE THE INTERMITENT AIR BAG WARNING LIGHT, LOSS OF CRUISE CONTROL, AND LOSS OF HORN. I WAS NOT AWARE THAT THE AIRBAG IS NO LONGER FUNCTIONAL DUE TO THIS. THERE ARE MANY ENTREES WITH THE SAME BROCKEN CLOCKSPRING AT FAULT. IT WOULD SEEM THAT FORD HAS A DANGEROUS DEFECT THAT CAN COMPROMISE THE SAFETY OF ITS CUSTOMERS. I HOPE THAT SOMETHING CAN BE DONE TO REMEDY THIS PROBLEM WITHOUT FORD SOCKING EVERY OWNER WITH A $250.00 CHARGE FOR THEIR DEFECTIVE PRODUCT. I ALSO HAVE THE BROCKEN PLASTIC DASH MOUNT ON THE PASSENGER SIDE, WHICH CAUSES EXTREME DASH BOUNCING AT THE SLIGHTES BUMP. I HAVE LOOKED ON LATER MODEL TRUCKS WITH THE SAME DASH AND THE MOUNTING BRACKET IS DIFFERENT, IT WOULD SEEM FORD DIAGNOSED THIS PROBLEM BUT WILL NOT FIX IT IN PREVIOUS MODELS. I HOPE THAT THIS INFORMATION WILL BE FOLLOWED UP WITH THE MANUFACTURE AND MIGHT CAUSE SOME GOOD.*AK

WHEN DRIVING THE VEHICLE, AT ANY SPEED THE AIR BAG WARNING LIGHT WOULD APPEAR ON THE DASHBOARD INTERMITTENTLY. THE CONSUMER TOOK THE VEHICLE TO THE DEALER FOR INSPECTION. THE MECHANIC INFORMED THE OWNER THAT THE CLOCK SPRING HAD FAILED. PLEASE ADD ANY ADDITIONAL INFORMATION. *LA

PROBLEM RELATES TO THE BUSHING IN THE CLUTCH PEDAL LINKAGE. IT FAILS WITHOUT WARNING WHILE SHIFTING THE TRANSMISSION. IT NOT ONLY ACTS AS THE LUBRICATING BUSHING IN THE LINKAGE, BUT ALSO THE KEEPER THAT HOLDS THE CLUTCH PEDAL LINKAGE TOGETHER WHERE IT JOINS THE ACTUATING ROD OF THE CLUTCH MASTER CYLINDER. THE FIRST TIME THAT IT FAILED, AND ALL SUBSEQUENT TIMES, THE CLUTCH PEDAL DROPS TO THE FLOOR, LEAVING THE DRIVER WITH NO WAY TO SHIFT USING THE CLUTCH. IF THE VEHICLE IS MOVING AND THE OPERATOR KNOWS HOW TO PERFORM A SHIFT WITHOUT THE CLUTCH PEDAL, THE VEHICLE CAN BE DRIVEN TO A SAFE LOCATION. OTHERWISE, ONE IS LEFT AT THE PLACE THAT IT CAME APART, WONDERING HOW TO CONNECT THE LINKAGE TOGETHER SO THAT THE VEHICLE CAN BE SHIFTED. TO CORRECT THE PROBLEM, A REPLACEMENT BUSHING IS REQUIRED. IT SNAPS INTO THE LOOP OF THE CLUTCH MASTER CYLINDER ROD, WHICH THEN SNAPS ONTO THE CLUTCH PEDAL LINKAGE. THIS HAS HAPPENED APPROXIMATELY 6 TIMES DURING THE 10 YEARS THAT I'VE OWNED THE VEHICLE, THE FIRST TIME AT ABOUT 3 YEARS OF AGE. THEN APPROXIMATELY EVERY 18 TO 24 MONTHS. TODAY THE BUSHING BROKE THAT I REPLACED ABOUTH 3 MONTHS AGO. I NOW ALWAYS CARRY A NEW SPARE BUSHING. I PUT IN THE SPARE BUSHING, AND AFTER ABOUT 4 SHIFTS, THE NEW BUSHING BEGAN TO FAIL. A PIECE CRACKED OFF. I HAVE THE MOST RECENTLY REPLACED BUSHING IF NEEDED FOR RESEARCH. *AK

WHILE DRIVING FUEL IN THE RECEIVING TANK EXCEEDED AND FUEL OVERFLOWED FROM THE FUEL CAP. A FUEL CROSS FLOW RECALL 01I008000 WAS ISSUED, BUT THIS VEHICLE WAS OVER THE MILEAGE STIPULATED IN THE RECALL, AND THE MODEL YEAR WAS NOT INCLUDED.*AK

FUSE FOR BREAK/HAZARD LIGHTS BLEW. WHEN NEW FUSE WAS INSTALLED, WIRING ON BREAK MASTER CYLINDER ASSEMBLY IMMEDIATELY IGNITED BURNING ENTIRE ASSEMBLY TO THE LEVEL OF BREAK FLUID. THE FIRE WAS PUT OUT, IT DID NOT STOP ON ITS OWN. *NM

THE CONSUMER HAD THE VEHICLE PARKED IN THE DRIVEWAY, WITH THE VEHICLE ON, WITHOUT WARNING THE DRIVERS SIDE AIR BAG DEPLOYED, THE CONSUMER SUSTAINED MINOR INJURIES FROM THE AIR BAG.PLEASE PROVIDE ANY ADDITIONAL INFORMATION. *NM

MY LOW MILAGE, EXTRA CLEAN 1994 FORD F-150 2WD TRUCK SUDDENLY LURCHED TO THE SIDE. UPON INVESTIGATION ,I DISCOVERED THAT THE REAR SPRING SHACKLES HAD COMPLETELY ROTTED OFF ONE SIDE AND HALF OF THE OTHER. THE STEEL WAS PAPER THIN AND SEPARATED IN LAYERS. THE LEAF SPRING DAMAGED THE BED AS IT WAS THE ONLY THING HOLDING IT DOWN . NEW SHACKLES HAD TO BE ORDERED AS THEY ARE NOT A STOCKED ITEM. OTHER PARTS OF THE FRAME AND RELATED ITEMS SHOW THE SAME DEGRIDATION. FRAGMENTS AVAILABLE.

I OWN A 1994 FORD F-150. THE OIL PAN GASKET FAILED AND THE OIL PAN HAS RUSTED THRU. THIS CAUSES OIL TO SPLASH ONTO THE EXHAUST, SMOKE AND POSSIBLY CATCH FIRE WHILE POLLUTING THE ENVIRONMENT. EVERYONE I HAVE TALKED WITH, WHO DRIVES A 1992 TO 1996 F-150 HAS THE SAME PROBLEM AND CHECK OUT WWW.FORD-TRUCKS.COM WERE YOU WILL FIND HUNDREDS OF F-150 OWNERS WITH THE SAME PROBLEM (SEARCH F-150 OIL PAN). I CALLED SEVERAL DEALERSHIPS IN MY AREA FOR AN ESTIMATE ON THIS REPAIR. EACH AND EVERY DEALER STATED THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM WITH THESE F-150S WE REPAIR ABOUT THREE A WEEK. ONE DEALERSHIP EVEN TOLD ME FORD OUTSOURCED THESE PARTS AND THEY WERE MANUFACTURED FROM FOREIGN STEEL THATS POROUS AND RUST FROM THE INSIDE OUT. I CONTACTED FORDS CUSTOMER SERVICE CENTER THAT STATED THE VEHICLE IS OUT OF WARRANTY AND BASICALLY TOUGH LUCK. I WOULD CONSIDER IT GENERAL MAINTENANCE, BUT NOT WHEN EVERY F-150 OWNER HAS HAD THE SAME PROBLEM AND FORD REPRESENTATIVES TELL ME THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM.*AK

1994 FORD F150 WITH 65,600 MILES. I AM CERTAIN THAT THE CLOCK SPRING IS BAD WHICH DOES CONTROL THE AIRBAG FEATURE. THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE AND SHOULD BE RECALLED FOR REPLACEMENT OR REIMBURSEMENT IF REPLACED BY OWNER ALREADY. I AM AWARE THAT RECALLS HAVE BEEN ISSUED FOR THIS SAME PROBLEM ON OTHER MAKE VEHICLES. I AM ALSO AWARE OF PEOPLE WHO HAVE WENT AND HAD THIS PART REPLACED ON THEIR OWN.

I OWN A 1994 FORD F150 TRUCK. THE BOLT THAT HOLDS THE SERPENTINE TENSIONER TO THE BRACKET ON THE ENGINE SNAPPED OFF WHILE I WAS TRAVELING ON THE FREEWAY. I LOST TOTAL POWER IN THE BRAKES AND STEERING AS I WAS EXITING ON A SHARP TURN. LATER UPON INSPECTION IT APPEARED THAT THE BOLT ALREADY HAD A FRACTURE IN IT PRIOR TO SNAPPING OFF. I AM TRYING TO FIND THE SPECIFIC BOLT TO ONLY REPLACE IT BECAUSE I CANNOT AFFORD TO REPLACE THE ENTIRE TENSIONER PART. THE MECHANIC THAT IS TRYING TO REPLACE THE BOLT SAID THAT THE PROBLEM WAS MOST LIKELY CAUSED BY THE MANUFACTURER INSTALLATION. NONE OF THE FORD SERVICE DEPARTMENTS HERE IN SAN ANTONIO, TEXAS HAD EVER HEARD OF THIS OCCURING AND KEPT ASKING IF I KNEW WHAT I WAS TALKING ABOUT, AND WERE SHOCKED WHEN I SHOWED THEM THE ENTIRE PART WITH BROKEN BOLT AND ALL. I AM FRUSTRATED AT HAVING TO FIND JUST THE BOLT AND FORD HAS SAID I HAD TO BUY THE ENTIRE PART!*AK

APPARENTLY THERE IS A PROBLEM WITH THE "CLOCKSPRING" IN THE STEERING COLUMN OF THE 1994 FORD F-150. WHEN THIS BREAKS, AS IT APPARENTLY OFTEN DOES, THERE IS AN OPEN CIRCUIT BETWEEN THE AIR BAG & THE SENSORS RENDERING THE AIRBAG INOPERABLE. I HAVE NOT BEEN IN CONTACT WITH THE MANUFACTURER YET, ONLY THE DEALER. I JUST WANTED OTHERS TO KNOW OF THIS POTENTIAL HAZARD. I FOUND A FORUM ON A GOOGLE SEARCH ON MY PROBLEM (1994 FORD F-150 FLASHING A CODE 32). WITH PARTS & LABOR THIS IS GOING TO BE APPROXIMATELY $250.00 TO REPAIR.

I HAVE REPLACED THE ALTERNATOR ON MY F150 FIVE TIMES IN FIVE YEARS. TWICE THE VOLTAGE REGULATOR ON THE BACK OF THE ALTERNATOR WAS MELTED.

SO FAR SO GOOD, BUT THEY ALWAYS LAST ABOUT A YEAR ANYWAY. I THINK THEY FAIL BECAUSE OF THE EXCESS HEAT FROM THE EXHAUST MANIFOLD. THERE IS OLNY A COUPLE OF INCHES BETWEEN THE TWO.
