Have your dealer pull the wheels, & check everything underneath, + topside too!

Did the same thing, My warranty went out this past August and I only had 22k miles my truck. I bought the extended from the stealership as well. Bumper to Bumper for another 4 years for like 900 + tax and fees. I was told that you can continue to keep buying them as long as own the vehicle, it would be a wise investment if you plan on keeping it.

You may not be out of luck. When I bought mine new I purhased a 60,000 mi premium care ESP. At the time I wasn't sure I would keep it longer than that. When the truck values dropped through the basement I realized I would probably keep it longer so I contacted Ford and was told that I could still buy a used vehicle ESP, but had to wait till the original ESP expired. Seems odd to have to wait till the old one is expired but that is what I was told. I've yet to do anything yet as the truck just rolled past 60,000 recently.

Inquire about a used vehicle ESP from your dealer.

Wow, I would recommend an extended warranty man. I know they cost big bucks, but so do repairs you have to foot the bills for out of your pocket.

warranty is for girly man who can't turn a wrench! seriously though, if you prefer not to do your repairs yourself, an extended warranty would be a wise investment to avoid a large repair expense. keep in mind, certain mods can/will affect warranty. for example, ball joints or cv shafts on a lifted truck probably would not be covered, as the lift accelerates wear on such items.
