    Received recall for seat lever and cruise control

    I just got in the mail yesterday a recall for my 99 XLT. They want to replace
    the mounting bolts for the seat lever, and also they want to inspect the cruise
    cable for possible binding and possibly replace it. Did anyone else get the
    letter? Also
    I never had a problem with my seat lever but has anyone else had a problem?

    Have not had a problem, but I also received the recall letter
    yesterday. This was publicized in the press a couple weeks ago and
    affects several years, not just the 99's. I plan to take mine in soon
    and get these things fixed as both sound like they could cause major
    problems.

    Got the letter yesterday too, but it was only for the cruise cable; no
    mention of seat lever(2000 Ltd.) Letter said to make an appt. for 1/2
    day of service, but dealer said stop in and they'd look at it briefly
    to see if they needed to order a new cruise cable.

    Got my recall notice yesterday also. I'll let my local dealer check it out
    and at the same time I'll check out the new F150's if their on the lot.

    Great timing on the recalls; maybe it's designed to get our interest in the
    new models!????

    From Richard:

    Got my notice yesterday for the seat bolt only. I think a '04 F-150
    SuperCrew was on the lot when I came home today!

    Exact same problem, "bending seat lever", on my '98 EB! This darn thing
    is going to snap off any day now.

    Does this TSB for the "sport seat ..." pertain to my 1998 Explorer AWD
    Eddie Bower?

    Thanks,

    Steven
