2000 Ford F-150 Other or unknown Problems

“My 2000 Ford f150, blowup, it exploded twice. The entire front end is gone, the extended cab is all burnt. The hood is gone totally. We hadn't driven it since may 19 of 2013. So it had not been running at all. It was around 80-90, so what made it burn and blowup?? Recalls, which part or parts?? My house also got damage, the front of the house near my truck. I thank god we we're not driving it, which we had planned to use it the next day!!”

“First I purchased the Ford F-150 2000 year model from a car dealership on oct 28, 2019. Immediately there was problems keeping it running. They put a new battery in it 2 days later then while reaching 50 MPH my tons would drop and the truck would not accelerate I had just put 51 dollars in the tank, then I pushed the gas to the floor my rooms would go all the way to 3 then I would have to let off the gas and it seemed to do a hard switch in gear. As this continued the entire truck shook till I figured ok just pump the gas and let off before the shaking got to bad. …”

“I was driving home from work on the highway when I started to smell a slight burning smell. I was following a tractor trailer truck and I assumed it was just the smell of that trucks brakes. A few miles up the highway my truck shut off while driving. When I pulled over thats when I saw anoke coming from under the hood. I grabbed my keys and popped the hood. Thats when I saw a good sized flame on the drivers side of the engine compartment. I went a safe distance from the truck and called 911. My truck quickly went up in flames. …”

“While the truck was stationary, after having been driven about 20 minutes prior we could smell a burning plastic smell. A few short minutes later the engine was engulfed in flames. The fire started in the front drivers side and slowly make its way to the bed. The hood was completely disintegrated by the time the fire department had put it out. We believe this was due to the recall campaign 11s21. We did own the vehicle out right, and did not carry insurance, but my other vehicle had some damage and a number of my husbands tools were destroyed.”

“The vehicle started however, I was unable to shift it into gear. After three calls to a Ford dealership, I was advised to shift it into neutral, start it then shift it into drive. I was able to drive it home however, the power windows & windshield wipers were not working. I heard clicking noises coming from the fuse box. After placing it into drive, the radio would not work. When I placed it in park, the radio started working. When using the panel/floor defrost, I heard an electrical shorting noise coming from under the hood. …”
