description: TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 2000 FORD F-250 SD. WHILE DRIVING 10 MPH, THE CONTACT SMELLED BURNING WIRES IN THE VEHICLE AND NOTICED SMOKE COMING FROM THE HOOD. HE PULLED THE VEHICLE OVER AND OPENED THE HOOD. THE SMOKE CEASED, BUT THERE WAS A MELTED BLACK WIRE UNDER THE MASTER CYLINDER, WHICH HE BELIEVES CAUSED THE SMOKE. THE CONTACT DROVE BACK HOME, LOOKED UNDER THE HOOD AGAIN, AND NOTICED THAT IT WAS THE BRAKE PRESSURE SWITCH. THROUGH RESEARCH, HE FOUND THAT THERE WAS A RECALL, BUT IT DID NOT INCLUDE DIESEL ENGINES. THE DEALER WAS UNABLE TO ASSIST. THE CURRENT AND FAILURE MILEAGES WERE 160,000.
