WE BOUGHT THIS TRUCK AND PAID OVER 30K AND PUT DOWN 10K. THEY NEVER GAVE US THE FULL REPORT HISTORY OF THE TRUCK... WITH TWO TO THREE MONTHS THE ENGINE WENT OUT. WE TOOK IT TO THE MECHANIC AND HE TOLD US ITS NOT WORTH IT. THE ENGINE IF REPLACED WILL GO OUT AGAIN. FORD HAD A DIFFERENTCOMPANY BUILD THE ENGINES AND ALL OF THERE ENGINES WERE BAD. I BELIEVE FROM 2006 TO 2008 UNTIL FORD TOOK OVER. SO, WE BOUGHT THIS TRUCK FROM 1900 HAMNER AVE, NORCO, CA 92860 (951) 737-6151. WE CONTACTED THEM AND THEY DID NOTHING ABOUT IT. SO, NOW I AM STILL MAKING MONTHLY PAYMENTS OF 543 A MONTH AND THE TRUCK BROKE DOWN AROUND JUNE JULY OF2014. I'VE BEEN PAYING FOR STORAGE PLUS MONTHLY TRUCK PAYMENT. THIS COMPANY KNEW THE HISTORY OF THE TRUCK BUT THEY WENT AHEAD AND SOLD IT TO US. I FOUND OUT THE HISTORY BECAUSE THE LAWYER RECOMMENDED THAT TO ME. I GUESS ITS HARD FOR LEMON COMMERCIAL TRUCK TO HANDLE. I JUST WANT MY MONEY BACK AND FOR THEM TO TAKE THE TRUCK BACK. THEY HAVE BEEN FRAUDULENT ABOUT THIS. *TR

FORD 6.4L DIESEL ENGINES (2008-2010) IN F-250, F-350, F-450, AND F-550 TRUCKS CONTAIN RADIATORS THAT WERE IMPROPERLY CONSTRUCTED AND UNABLE TO WITHSTAND ENGINE PRESSURES AND LEAK COOLANT, AND CAN CAUSE CATASTROPHIC ENGINE FAILURES DUE TO OVERHEATING. FORD REPLACED COUNTLESS RADIATORS IN ITS 6.4L VEHICLES UNDER WARRANTY AND ISSUED A NUMBER OF SERVICE BULLETINS RELATED TO ITS 6.4L RADIATOR FAILURES. HOWEVER, EVEN ITS REDESIGNED RADIATORS CONTINUE TO FAIL. IN OUR VERY LOW MILEAGE F550 DIESEL, THE RADIATOR FAILED AT 23000 MILES EVEN AFTER BEING INSPECTED BY FORD AND "APPROVED" AS ADEQUATE. FORD REFUSES TO PROVIDE A FIX. THE FORD DEALERSHIP TELLS US THAT SOME CUSTOMERS HAVE REPLACED RADIATORS AS MANY AS 10 TIMES, OR MORE. AN INTERNET SEARCH (E.G., GOOGLE) FOR "FORD 6.4L RADIATOR" SHOWS COUNTLESS OTHERS HAVE EXPERIENCED MULTIPLE RADIATOR FAILURES. AGAIN, FORD IS UNWILLING TO RECALL THE DEFECTIVE ENGINE PARTS OR PROVIDE A WARRANTY REPLACEMENT. *TR
