I called the Ford dealer in San Diego, and was told my vehicle (diesel) is not included on the recall. Is this recall VIN specific?

I too called into the dealer and gave them my VIN#. They said I was not part of the recall. Just have to wait and see if they change their mind.

Some of the guys answering the phones may not be up to date on the new recall yet. Isn't there a ford phone # you can call and find out about this stuff?

I can see how some '03's wouldn't be affected, based on the following excerpt:

The cruise-control deactivation switches, made by Texas Instruments and sold for about $21, were installed in 16 million Ford vehicles over a decade before the automaker stopped using them in early 2003.

Thanks Stewart. I called the dealership again, but this time I spoke with the service advisor for diesel trucks. He confirmed that my Ex is on the recall list and made appt for the one hour installation.

Had my '00 Limited 7.3 PSD in today for a fuel guage issue and they found the open recall for my truck. Harness was replaced today and I haven't even received the letter from Ford yet.
