since I bought the 07 used in april 15 has others had a lot of problems. mine only had 70,000 miles and so far the a/c quit and blows the fuse, the steering stem bolt almost fell out, heater switch quit working on the first 2 setting, both manifolds leak, horn works when it wants to, low tire pressure turns on my O/D light till I fill the low tire and now both front coil springs broke and I have only put 6000 miles just on road driving nothing hard on it. any info would be helpful don't want to lose my faith

 

wow. What did you do in a previous life that the auto-gods hate you so much right now? I just bought an '07 Lariat (and I live in Ohio) and I've had a power steering return line rust out and need to be replaced, needed to gorilla glue down the flashing strip that runs down the side of the windshield to the back of the cab on the roof, and removed the DRL resistor (more a mod than a problem) but that's the extent of my problems.

 

not sure all my other trucks I either sold for a newer or had real high miles when I bought them and died do to previous life. this one seems it came from Canada but that doesn't explain the issues at such a young life. all the valve cover bolts and brake booster are rusted but the underbody of the truck front to back are spotless, Carfax said no wrecks or flood damage.

 

lol. Mine came from Canada too (re-imported into the US in 2010). There's some surface rust on the frame, but otherwise everything seems to be fine.

Seems like we both had the same idea.

 

not sure just don't understand

 

Just like any other used car purchase, you ran afoul of the "good looking but poorly maintained" one.

 

Yikes
I have to ask was this a rental?
You have had this a year now so will you do the repairs or trade it on something?

 

Trying to fix what I can and if it's beyond me I have a great mechanic. As far as I know it was sold to a person in Nova Scotia then a auction block Michigan then the dealer I got it from

 

expensive lawn décor till I can get it fixed

 

Last year I found my drivers side coil spring broke as well, don't know how long it was broke. I had to get some cheap coil overs off of ebay to change them. So far, they have held up very well, feels good still and haven't broke on me yet. I think the cost was about $150 or so, I am confident that they will last until I can pick up some good name brand ones.
