DT*: THE CONTACT STATED WHILE DRIVING 40MPH, THERE WAS A VIBRATION FROM THE REAR SUSPENSION FOLLOWED BY A NOISE FROM THE DRIVELINE. THE VEHICLE WAS SEEN BY AN INDEPENDENT REPAIR SHOP. THE MECHANIC REPLACED THE REAR UNIVERSAL JOINT, BUT THE PROBLEM PERSISTED. THE VEHICLE WAS RETURNED TO THE REPAIR SHOP FOR FURTHER INSPECTION. THE MECHANIC DETERMINED THE UNIVERSAL JOINT NEEDED TO BE REPLACED AGAIN.

I HAVE A 2002 F350 SUPER DUTY DIESEL TRUCK. SEVERAL TIMES (6-8 TIMES) THIS VEHICLE HAS SPONTANEOUSLY MOVED FROM PARK TO REVERSE. SO FAR NO INJURIES OR DAMAGE TO VEHICLE HAS OCCURRED AS A RESULT OF THIS FAILURE. A CO-WORKER OF MINE HAS REPORTED THE SAME PROBLEM WITH HIS 2004 FORD F250 SUPERDUTY DIESEL TRUCK.*AK

2002 FORD SUPER DUTY POWERSTROKE DIESELS WITH 4 WHEEL DRIVE. THE 4 WHEEL DRIVE SYSTEM ON THESE TRUCKS IS CALLED, "ELECTONIC SHIFT ON THE FLY" ... THERE IS A DASH MOUNTED KNOB ON THE DASH. THE NOB HAS WRITTEN, "4X2"-4X4 AND 4X4 LO". THIS PAST SNOW STORM IN NORTHERN NEVADA HAD CHAINS OR SNOW TIRE RESTRICTIONS. SO, ON MY WAY TO WORK I TURNED THE DASH KNOB FROM 4X2 TO "4X4. THE 4X4 SYSTEM LIGHT ON THE DASH LIT UP AND THE TRUCK WENT INTO 4 WHEEL DRIVE. SHORTLY AFTER DRIVING AND PROCEEDING FROM A "STOP SIGN" THE REAR TIRES STARTED TO SPIN, NOTHING FROM THE FRONT TIRES!! THE DASH LIGHT STILL SHOWED 4X4 MODE.. I PULLED TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD AND TURNED THE KNOB FROM 4X4 TO 4X2 AND THEN BACK TO 4X4. AGAIN THE 4 WHEEL DRIVE SYSTEM WORKED.. UPON CLIMBING UP A SLIGHT HILL THE REAR TIRES STARTED SLIDING CAUSING THE BACK OF THE TRUCK TO "FISHTAIL". AGAIN, WITHOUT WARNING THE TRUCK LEFT IT'S 4 WHEEL DRIVE MODE AND WENT BACK INTO 2 WHEEL DRIVE..THIS IS EXTREMLY DANGEROUS!!!!THE TRUCK UNLIKE A 4X4 SYSTEM THAT JUST DOES NOT WORK OR QUITS WORKING, TELLS THE DRIVER IT IS IN 4X4, BUT WITHOUT WARNING, GOES BACK INTO 4X2 MODE.
