1999 Ford F150 XLT Extended Cab review from North America
"This truck is very unreliable"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Front brake rotors needed replacing at around 50K.
Ball joints needed replacing at around 50K.
Rear brake rotors needed replacing at around 55K.
Two ignition coils failed between 50 - 60K.
Tie-rods need replacing now (65K).
Rear sliding window leaks (on my daughter who is sitting in her car seat!!!)
General comments?
Terrible! All this expensive work between 50 - 60K??? I've never had another vehicle with these types of problems.
Will never buy another Ford truck.
