A pillar cracks ??

BEECHKID wrote:...check very closely for door cracks at the A pillar area. IIRR that was about the time that Ford had fixed the problem. In a response to someone asking about reliability of a 2001 super-crew cab. I have a 2000 F150 supercrew cab but have never heard of this. Is this a problem and what should I look for.

At the base of the window next to the door lock. Look on the outside of the door right in that corner. All late 90's to early 2000's had this problem with metal fategue and they would crack. There was a silent recall on it I think. I fixed mine on my own and just welded it and repainted the door.
