OUR 1994 FORD F-350 WAS DESTROYED BY FIRE ORIGINATING AT THE MASTER CYLINDER TODAY. THERE WAS A SMALL BRAKE FLUID LEAK NOTICED IN THIS AREA THE OTHER DAY; BUT I WAS UNAWARE OF THE CRUISE CONTROL SHUTOFF SWITCH DANGER UNTIL AFTER THE FIRE. I HAVE RECEIVED NO NOTICE OF A RECALL FOR THIS VEHICLE.

BRAKE FADE. WHEN AT A COMPLETE STOP, PEDAL WILL SINK SLOWLY BUT NOT ENOUGH TO ACTIVE A WARNING LIGHT. IF PEDAL IS NOT PRESSED HARDER VEHICLE WILL ROLL. DEALERSHIP SAYS THIS IS NOT THE FIRST VEHICLE TO DO THIS AND HAS CONTACTED THE MANUFACTURER. VEHICLE STILL DOES IT TO THIS DAY. MASTER CYLINDER HAS BEEN REPLACED TWICE, STILL NOT FIXED.*AK

CRACKS HAVE ACCUMULATED ON THE FUEL TANK, CAUSING FUEL TO LEAK. DEALERSHIP WAS NOTIFIED, BUT DID NOT RESOLVE THE PROBLEM. *AK . SIME VEHICLES CAN EXPERIENCE A CROSS TANK FUEL CONDITION DUE TO ADAMAGED VALVE IN THE FUEL PUMP/SENDER ASSEMBLY. FUEL MAY BESUPPLIED FROM ONE TANK AND SOME OR ALL OF THE UNUSED FUEL MAY BE RETURNED TO THE OTHER TANK. SHOULD THIS OCCUR, THE CAPACITY OF THE RECEIVING TANK MAY OVERFLOW THE FILLER CAP. *AK
