In a form using the Form helper, I'm simply passing $this->data back and
forth. The user fills out a generic form (not using a Model), clicks the
submit button, logic in the controller sees some missing fields and
bypasses the if( empty( $this->data ) ) condition and brings the user back
to the form. The form, on the second time around, truncates any field
values that are put into the "value" attributes of the "input" tags in
HTML.

In the view (index.ctp):
{{{
<?= $form->create( null, array( "url" => "/contact" ) ?>
<?= $form->input( 'fullname', array( 'label' => false, 'div' => false ) )
?>
...
}}}
Whether or not the array( 'label' => false, 'div' => false ) is in the
parameter list, the same behavior is exhibited.

If you output the $this->data array, it looks perfectly fine:
{{{
Array
(
[fullname] => bob Smith
[address1] =>
[address2] =>
[city] =>
[state] =>
[zipcode] =>
[phone] =>
[email] => asdfasdf
[comments] =>
)
}}}
If you purposefully add the 'value' field to the "options" array:
{{{
<?= $form->input( 'fullname', array( 'label' => false, 'div' => false,
'value' => $this->data['fullname'] )) ?>
}}}
...the value is set correctly and the behavior is as expected. Without the
'value' => $this->data['fullname'] in the second parameter array, only the
first character is shown in the field on the form the second time around
to this view.

Controller is attached. View is attached.
