1996 Ford F350 XT review from North America
"Fix Or Repair Daily says it all"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The front end needed to be totally redone when I bought the truck.
The vacuum pump needed to be replaced about 2 months later.
The brake lines started to leak about a month after that.
None of the door locks work properly.
The whole dash is starting to peel and crack.
General comments?
With all this as well as other minior mainteinance I have spent well over $4000 in mainteinance this year. all on a vehicle that is only 7 years old!
But on the plus side I must say it will pull anything you put behind it.
