Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: I have had many problems with running my truck and once the engine is hot, when you try to start it up without letting it set for about 20 minutes it ruins the starter and battery cables. it has smoked 4 times and i had to use my fire extinquisher once. i have had 8 starters in less than 1 year, 1 new battery, and three sets of battery cables. i have spent a fortune trying to find out what the problem is and not even ford's master mechanics have had an answer. *ak
