READ THIS ENTIRE AD !!
WE BOUGHT THIS AMBULANCE ON 4/26/16 FROM THE RED CROSS IN TEXAS.
WE HAD IT SHIPPED FROM DALLAS TO CHICAGO FOR $650
WHEN IT ARRIVED HERE IN HIGHLAND PARK,IL, I WAS VERY IMPRESSED, A CLEAN, RUST FREE 7.3L V8 DIESEL AMBULANCE.
I HAD THE WINDSHIELD REPLACED, AND THEN DROVE IT HOME TO SHOW THE NEIGHBORHOOD KIDS, THEY LOVED IT, AND IT DROVE GREAT.
IT WAS TIME TO SELL, SO I TOOK IT TO THE DETAIL SHOP TO HAVE IT WAXED, POLISHED, BUFFED, SHAMPOOED, CLEANED.
THIS IS WHERE THE PROBLEM STARTED.
WHEN IT GOT BACK FROM THE DETAIL SHOP, THE ABS LIGHT WAS ON, AND THE ODOMETER AND SPEEDOMETER WERE NOT WORKING AND THE TRANSMISSION WAS SHIFTING HARD AND THE OVERDRIVE LIGHT WAS FLASHING.
SIMPLE, I THOUGHT. I CHECKED THE FUSES. ALL SEEMED GOOD. MAYBE SOMETHING GOT WET OR UNPLUGGED DURING DETAIL.
I DID SOME "INTERNET RESEARCHING" SOME PEOPLE SAID THE VEHICLE SPEED SENSOR ON TOP OF THE DIFFERENTIAL WAS THE CULPRIT.
THIS AMBULANCE DOES NOT HAVE A SPEED SENSOR ON THE DIFFERENTIAL.
I TOOK IT TO THE LOCAL FORD DEALERSHIP ON 5/15/16, THEY LOOKED AT IT AND SAID IT WAS THE VEHICLE SPEED SENSOR ON TOP OF THE DIFFERENTIAL.
THIS AMBULANCE DOES NOT HAVE A PLACE TO PLUG IN A SPEED SENSOR ON THE REAR DIFFERENTIAL.
I PARKED THE AMBULANCE BEHIND MY BUILDING BECAUSE I WAS FRUSTRATED.
I WANT TO SELL THIS F350 AND NEVER LOOK BACK.
