2010 Ford F-150 complaints

WHILE DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY THE ENGINE SHUT OFF. UPON INSPECTION, FUSE #27 BURNED OUT INSTEAD OF BLOWING. THIS FUSE CONTROLS THE FUEL PUMP, AND WHEN IT BURNED UP THE FUEL PUMP LOST POWER AT HIGHWAY SPEED. UPON RESEARCH IT IS A VERY COMMON PROBLEM WITH THE 2009-2014 YEAR MODELS AND FORD ISSUED A TSB BUT NOT A RECALL. I HADN'T KNOWN ABOUT THIS WHEN PURCHASING THE TRUCK USED, AND IT IS A VERY SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUE.

THIS MORNING (8/5/2019) MY REAR DRIVER-SIDE WINDOW SPONTANEOUSLY SHATTERED, AGAIN. THERE WAS NO IMPACT (I HAVE A CAMPER SHELL ON THE VEHICLE). I WAS TRAVELING AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS ON SMOOTH TERRAIN. THIS IS THE THIRD TIME THIS HAS OCCURRED. THE FIRST TWO WERE SIMILAR IN NATURE: THE FIRST ONE WAS WHILE THE VEHICLE WAS IN MOTION ON SMOOTH SURFACE STREETS AND THE REPAIR WAS DONE UNDER WARRANTY; THE SECOND WAS WHILE THE VEHICLE WAS PARKED AND THE DEALERSHIP WAS WILLING TO PAY FOR THE REPAIR. IN EACH CASE, I HAD TO (AND WILL HAVE TO AGAIN) PAY TO HAVE MY CAMPER SHELL REMOVED AND STORED WHILE THE REPAIR TAKES PLACE.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2010 FORD F-150. WHILE DRIVING 50 MPH, THE CONTACT ATTEMPTED TO CLOSE THE MOON ROOF; HOWEVER, IT BECAME STUCK AND WOULD NOT CLOSE. THE CONTACT HEARD AN ABNORMAL POPPING SOUND COMING FROM THE AREA OF THE MOON ROOF. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO BILINGSLY FORD 1 (8209 QUANAH PARKER TRAILWAY, LAWTON, OK 73505) WHERE THE MECHANIC STATED THAT THERE WAS NO REMEDY FOR THE FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE AND DID NOT ASSIST. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 53,500.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2010 FORD F-150. WHILE DRIVING VARIOUS SPEEDS, A KNOCKING NOISE WAS HEARD FROM THE FRONT DRIVER'S SIDE WHEEL. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC WHO DIAGNOSED THAT THE FRONT DRIVER'S SIDE UPPER BALL JOINT WAS FAULTY AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE LOCAL DEALER AND MANUFACTURER WERE NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE CONTACT INDICATED THAT THE DRIVER'S SIDE BALL JOINT NEEDED TO BE REPLACED ON SEVERAL OCCASIONS BECAUSE THE FAILURE RECURRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 169,000.

WHEN YOU PRESS THE WINDOW DEFROST BUTTON THE RIGHT PANEL OF THE REAR GLASS OVERHEATS AND SHATTERS. THIS HAS HAPPENED TWICE NOW WHEN LEAVING THE HOUSE. THE FIRST TIME IT HAPPENED THE TRUCK WAS 1 YEAR OLD IN 20 DEGREE WEATHER WITH FROST ON THE WINDOWS AND THE SECOND TIME WAS 80 DEGREE WEATHER WITH WINDOWS FOGGED UP. IT'S VERY STARTLING TO HEAR AN EXPLOSION RIGHT BEHIND YOUR HEAD WHEN YOU ARE DRIVING SOUNDING LIKE AND GUNSHOT OR BRICK BEING THROWN INTO THE VEHICLE

OUR 2010 FORD F150 IS LITERALLY ROTTING AWAY IN THE DRIVE WAY BOTH SIDES OF THE BED HAVE RUST THROUGH AT 45,000 MILES IT STARTED, THE TRUCK NOW HAS APPRX 58,000 MILES. WE PURCHASED A FORD BECAUSE THEY WERE ONLY THE ONE OF THE BIG 3 US AUTO MAKERS THAT DIDN'T TAKE THE BAIL OUT FROM THE TAXPAYERS & WE PREVIOUSLY OWNED ONE. WE HAVE A 2008 HYUNDIA WITH 102,000 MILES NO RUST OR HOLES, 2011 CHEVY SILVERADO WITH 60,000 MILES AND A 2012 GMC SIERRA 80,000 AND NO RUST OR HOLES. FORD HAS REFUSED TO REPAIR THE TRUCK. THIS IS A DISGRACE A TRUCK WITH EXTREMELY LOW MILES LITERALLY ROTTING AWAY IN THE DRIVEWAY. THERE WILL NEVER BE ANOTHER FORD IN OUR DRIVE UNLESS FORD STEPS UP AND FIXES THIS. OUR SONS THAT OWN THE CHEVY & GMC ARE YOUNG AND ALOT OF VEHICLES TO PURCHASE IN THEIR LIVES, THEY ARE DISGUSTED WITH THE FORD ALSO. FORD REPRESENTATIVE NEEDS TO SEE THIS TRUCK!

I LIVE IN CONN. AND AS YOU KNOW, WE HAVE THE BEST CORROSIVE ROAD SALT- SO, IN THE PAST YEAR, I, PERSONALLY HAVE FOUND IN THE MIDDLE OF THE STREET FULL TIRES- ALL SIZES WITH RIMS. SO, AS A PAST MECHANIC I HAVE FIGURED IT OUT TO BE THE SPARE TIRES UNDERNEATH TRUCKS,AND SUVS THAT ARE HELD BY A CABLE AND ARE LOCATED IN THE REAR SO WHEN THEY RUST AND FALL OFF THE CAR THEY DO NOT REALIZE OR FEEL IT COMING OFF THE VEHICLE,WHICH COULD CAUSE A CRASH TO AVOID

MY 2010 4.6 2WD SHUTS DOWN WHILE DRIVING AT 40MPH ON THE STREET. I'VE CHANGED SO MANY THINGS AND NOW JUST ORDERED THOTTLE BODY YO SEE IF IT HELPS. NO ONE CAN DIAGNOSE THIS PROBLEM BECAUSE NO CHECK ENGINE LIGHT. I LOSE POWER STEERING AND ALL POWER TO THE VEHICLE. THIS NEEDS TO BE RECALLED BY FORD BECAUSE IT IS VERY DANGEROUS AND ALMOST CAUSED ME TO HAVE ACCIDENTS WITH MY KIDS INSIDE.

AT 6:00AM ON 5-26-2019 I STARTED VEHICLE WITH BOTH DEFROSTERS ON. IT WAS PARKED IN DRIVEWAY. I LET VEHICLE RUN ABOUT 15 MINUTES TO REMOVE FOG FROM WINDOWS. UPON RE-ENTRY I NOTICED A BURNING SMELL LIKE WHEN YOU START YOUR FURNACE FOR THE FIRST TIME IN THE WINTER. I TRIED TO LOCATE THE ODOR, I NOTICED THE ODOR WAS STRONGEST IN REAR SEAT ON PASSENGER SIDE OF VEHICLE. I NOTICED THAT THE BACK GLASS WAS NOW SHATTERED BUT INTACT. A POLICE REPORT AND INVESTIGATION WAS PERFORMED. THE OFFICER CONCLUDED THAT THERE WAS NO IMPACT. I PLACED PACKING TAPE ON WINDOW TO SECURE GLASS UNTIL IT CAN BE REPLACED.

TRADED IN MY 2010 FORD F-150 AT DPM INC IN ALBUQUERQUE NO. THEY HAVE NOT PAID OFF THE LOAN. I AM GETTING COLLECTION CALLS FROM THE FINANCE COMPANY ASKING WHY I HAVE NONOT MADE A PAYMENT ON THE VEHICLE. AT THIS POINT I DO NOT KNOW WHERE MY TRUCK IS.

THE VEHICLE WILL BREAK ON ITS OWN, WITHOUT ANY WARNING. THIS HAS OCCURRED SEVERAL TIMES OVER THE PAST FEW YEARS. IT USUALLY OCCURS WHEN TRAVELING AT LOWER SPEEDS. 40 MPH AND LOWER. I HAVE NOT HAD ANY INCIDENTS ON THE FREEWAY, JUST ON THE HIGHWAY AND MOUNTAIN ROADS. NO CODES COME UP. THE STABILITY CONTROL LIGHT MAY COME ON BUT IT GOES AWAY.

TRUCK WAS PARKED HOOKED TO A CAMPER WHEN I TRIED TO START THE TRUCK IT WOULD NOT START. HAD TO TOW THE TRUCK TO THE FORD DEALER THEY TOLD ME IT WAS THE FUSE THAT OVERHEATED THEY WOULD HAVE TO REPLACE IT WITH A FUSE KIT. THE DEALER SAID IT WAS NOT COVERED UNDER MY EXTENDED WARRANTY BUT I DID HOWEVER SEE AN ARTICLE IN CARS.COM STATING THAT FORD WAS REPLACING THIS FREE OF CHARGE. IT SEEMS TO ME THAT FORD IS AWARE OF THIS FUSE THAT OVERHEATS AND IN FACT SELLS A FUSE KIT THAT RELOCATES THIS FUSE AT A CHARGE OF $480 BUT I'M SENDING THIS SURVEY HOPING TO OVERTURN THIS. ACCORDING TO OTHER FORD OWNERS THIS ISSUE HAS OCCURRED WHILE DRIVING AND SEEMS VERY UNSAFE I WAS FORTUNATE ENOUGH TO BE PARKED AND JUST INCONVENIENCED.

I TOOK THE VEHICLES BATTERY OUT TO REPLACE IT WITH A NEW ONE AND AFTER INSTALLING THE NEW ONE THE AIRBAG WARNING LIGHT CAME ON AND WILL NOT GO OUT,,HAVE NO IDEA WHY IM THINKING IT WAS SHUT OFF TO SELL IT. T HE VEHICLE WAS IN MY DRIVEWAY WHEN IT OCCURRED. STATIONARY.

MY TWO KIDS AND I WERE PLACING AN ORDER AT A DRIVE THROUGH, WHEN WE HEARD WHAT SOUNDED LIKE A GUNSHOT IN MY TRUCK. I LOOKED OVER MY DAUGHTER'S HEAD AND SEE MY BACK DRIVER'S SIDE WINDOW HAD EXPLODED. I HAD THE DEFROST ON FOR ABOUT 5 MINUTES. IT WAS SNOWING, SO I DIDN'T GET A GOOD LOOK AT IT TILL TODAY.IT LOOKS LIKE THE WINDOW IS READY TO FALL IN. NO SIGNS OF ANYTHING HITTING THE WINDOW FROM EITHER SIDE. I HAVE READ OVER 100 DIFFERENT COMPLAINTS ONLINE OF THIS HAPPENING TO OTHER FORD OWNERS.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2010 FORD F-150. WHILE DRIVING OR WHILE PARKED, THE VEHICLE WOULD IDLE LOUDLY. THERE WERE NO WARNING INDICATORS ILLUMINATED.

I FOUND THE RECALL NUMBER FROM FORD IS 11S15 ONLINE. THE DEALERSHIP SAYS THAT IT DOES NOT APPLY TO MY 2010 FORD F150. HOWEVER, THE SAME DEALERSHIP IS INDICATING THAT ALL FOUR OF THE INTERIOR DOOR HANDLES ARE FAILING AND NEED TO BE REPLACED. IF ONE FAILED I MIGHT BELIEVE WEAR AND TEAR, BUT ALL FOUR WOULD INDICATE A DEFECT AS DESCRIBED IN THE RECALL REFERENCED ABOVE.

THE PASSENGER SECTION OF THE REAR WINDOW SHATTERED WHILE THE REAR DEFROSTER WAS ACTIVATED. THE VEHICLE WAS PARKED IN A PARKING LOT OF A RESTAURANT AND WITHOUT ANYTHING IMPACTING THE WINDOW IT JUST SHATTERED. FOR ABOUT A WEEK LEADING UP TO THE INCIDENT THERE WAS A FUNNY SMELL WHENEVER I USED THE REAR DEFROSTER, MELTING PLASTIC, THAT I COULDN'T PINPOINT. INITIALLY, I THOUGH IT MIGHT HAVE BEEN THE SEAT HEATERS

TODAY MAKES THE 4TH TIME IT HAS BEEN IN THE SHOP FOR REPAIRS. IT HAS BEEN BROUGHT TO THE PLACE I PURCHASED IT, A FORD DEALERSHIP AND NOW A LOCAL DEALERSHIP. NO ONE CAN FIGURE OUT WHAT IS CAUSING THIS ISSUE. THIS VEHICLE PUTS THE SAFETY OF MYSELF, MY CHILDREN AND ANY PASSENGERS AT HIGH RISK DUE TO THE FACT IT USUALLY DOES THIS ON MAJOR HIGHWAYS. I NEED THIS RESOLVED.

I SEE A LOT A FORD F150 OWNERS AFTER 80,000 MILES HAVING TROUBLE WITH THE STEERING JOINT IN THEIR TRUCKS THE STEERING STARTS STICKING AND STEERING GETS VERY HARD. IT'S JUST NOT MY TRUCK LOTS OF OWNERS ARE HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM.

NOW THE BED IS JUST ROTTING AWAY THE IS MY FIRST FORD AND LAST FOR THE MONIES PAID IT SHOULD LAST LONGER THEN THIS. THIS DOESN'T COUNT ALL THE OTHER MONEY I PUT INTO THE TRUCK. IT ONLY HAS 86,000 MILES DOSE FORD HAVE A RECALL ON SUCH A LOUSY BODY ON THERE TRUCKS.

SOMETIMES WHILE DRIVING, USUALLY IN MOUNTAINOUS TERRAIN OR PULLING A LOAD, THE VEHICLE WILL DOWN SHIFT MULTIPLE GEARS. INSTEAD OF A PROGRESSION OF ONE GEAR AT A TIME, IT IS A SUDDEN SHIFT FROM LE. FOURTH TO SECOND OR FIRST. I DON'T KNOW THE EXACT REDUCTION AS MY VEHICLE DOES NOT HAVE A GEAR INDICATOR. IT OCCURS SPORADICALLY WITH NO WARNING. THIS ACTION HAS NEVER CAUSED A DANGEROUS SITUATION BUT IS CONCERNING. THE ENGINE RPM HAS JUMPED TO THE RED LINE WHICH I FEEL MAY CAUSE ENGINE AND/OR TRANSMISSION PROBLEMS.

VEHICLE SUDDENLY DOWNSHIFTED TO FIRST GEAR AT 65MPH CAUSING SKID. THEN DOWNSHIFTED TO NEUTRAL.

TAKATA RECALL. WHEN PULLING OUT INTO TRAFFIC ON A VERY BUSY HIGHWAY AS THE ON COMING TRAFFIC SPEED LIMIT IS 50MPH, I'M PULLING OUT ON THE HIGHWAY WITH A SAFE DISTANCE BETWEEN CARS ON THIS BUSY ROAD AS I ACCELERATED MY 2010 F150 FX4 SUPER CREW CAB "WITH MY FAMILY IN THE TRUCK I MIGHT ADD" THE TRUCK JUST DOWN SHIFTS AND IT SLAMS ME AND MY FAMILY FORWARD "LIKE I HIT A TREE GOING 30MPH" THE TRUCK SHUTS OFF COMPLETELY AND A SYMBOL OF A WRENCH POPS UP ON THE DASHBOARD. WITH NO POWER STEERING, NO POWER BREAKS, NO WAY TO SAFELY MOVE THE TRUCK OFF THE ROAD AT THIS POINT DUE TO THE TRAFFIC I WAS TRYING TO AVOID WAS PASSING ME GOING AT LEAST 50MPH ALMOST GETTING REAR ENDED BY SEVERAL CARS AND SEMI TRUCKS, I PUSH THE FLASHERS ON AND PRAY THAT NOTHING BAD HAPPENS AND COAST UNTIL THE TRUCK FINALLY COMES TO A STOP AFTER ABOUT 30-45 SECONDS. I GET OUT OF THE TRUCK AFTER THE GROUP OF VEHICLES PASS BY AND INSPECTED TO SEE IF THE ENGINE OR TRANSMISSION WAS BLOWN UP OR LEAKING FLUID AND NOTHING AT THIS POINT SO I'M STRESSED OUT BECAUSE MY FAMILY AND I COULD HAVE VERY WELL DIED AND THERE IS NO PROOF OF THIS WHEN I RESTARTED THE TRUCK NO SYMBOLS WAS PRESENT WHEN INSPECTED BY A MECHANIC. I KEEP TELLING THE MECHANIC THAT IT HAS NO POWER ANY MORE, IT SOOOOO SLUGGISH I CAN'T EVEN DRIVE THE TRUCK MUCH ANYMORE, ONLY ON SHORT TRIPS TO THE STORE. WE HAD TO CANCEL OR VACATION AND CANCEL THE PURCHASE OF A CAMPER FOR OUR VACATION. I'M SORRY BUT IF FORD WAS A REAL SYMBOL OF SAFETY AND SECURITY OF ITS OWNERS T

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2010 FORD F-150. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 10-15 MPH, THE VEHICLE DOWNSHIFTED FROM SECOND TO FIRST GEAR ON ITS OWN. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THAYER FORD (LOCATED AT 18039 N DIXIE HWY, BOWLING GREEN, OH 43402, (888) 440-5271) WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE POWER TRAIN CONTROL MODULE SOFTWARE NEEDED TO BE UPDATED. THE SOFTWARE WAS UPDATED, BUT THE FAILURE RECURRED ON SEVERAL OCCASIONS. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 4,000.

MY TRANSMISSION DOWNSHIFTS AT VERY WRONG TIMES CAUSING MAJOR JERKING AND SUDDEN DECELERATION. IT DOESN'T HAPPEN ALL THE TIME. IT IS RANDOM BUT IT HAS DONE IT ATLEAST 3 TIMES.

TRANSMISSION OR TORQUE CONVERTER CAUSES THE TRUCK TO SHAKES AND SHUDDER. IT ALSO DOWN SHIFTS AND IS A KICKING FEELING. AT TIMES FEELING LIKE SOMEONE HAS REAR ENDED YA. THROWS HEAD BACK IT'S SO VIOLENT. THE SHAKING AND SHUDDERING TYPICALLY STARTS AT AROUND 38-54 MPH. THEN FOR NO REASON AT DIFFERENT SPEEDS UP TO 80 MPH. ANYTIME THERE IS A UPHILL GRADE IT CONSTANTLY DOWNSHIFTS AND SHAKES EVEN MORE. THE SHUDDERS ARE SO VIOLENT THE MIRRORS CAN'T BE USED TO SEE ANYTHING. I CAN FEEL IT IN MY TEETH. THIS HAPPENS ON CITY STREETS AND ON THE HIGHWAY. HAVE TAKEN IN SEVERAL TIMES FOR THIS PROBLEM SINCE IT WAS NEW. EVEN WHEN TALKING ON BLUETOOTH PHONE- OTHERS HAVE SAID THEY COULD HEAR IT OVER THE PHONE. FORD HAS REFUSED AND NEVER FIXED THIS PROBLEM AND TOLD ME THIS IS NORMAL FOR THE TRANSMISSION TO PROTECT ITSELF. WHAT BS. I'VE NEVER HAD A VEHICLE THAT DID THIS ON PURPOSE. THERE ARE THOUSANDS OF COMPLAINTS ABOUT THIS FROM BEFORE 2010. WHY ISN'T MY YEAR MODEL TRUCK COVERED AND THOSE BEFORE MINE?? NOW THERE'S A RECALL FOR THIS VERY THING FOR 2011-2013 YEAR MODELS. MY TRUCK IS DANGEROUS AND A PAIN IN THE BUTT TO DRIVE. FORD NEEDS TO FIX ALL OF THE VEHICLES PRODUCED WITH THIS PROBLEM NOT JUST 3 YEARS. 🤬 I'M DOING THIS ON MY PHONE. I HAVE RECORDS AND IF NEEDED YOU CAN COME DRIVE WITH ME AND SEE FOR YOURSELF. SURE HOPE ME OR ONE OF MY FAMILY MEMBERS DOESN'T GET HURT DRIVING THIS TRUCK BECAUSE OF THIS CRAP. SORRY, REALLY PISSED THAT FORD IS GOING TO CONTINUE TO GET AWAY WITH SCREWING FOLK

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2010 FORD F-150. WHILE DRIVING 25 MPH, THE AIR BAGS DEPLOYED WITHOUT WARNING OR AN IMPACT. THE CONTACT SUSTAINED A MINOR INJURY TO THE LEFT EAR, WHICH DID NOT REQUIRE MEDICAL ATTENTION. A POLICE REPORT WAS NOT FILED.

I WAS DRIVING TO WORK ON 2/5/19, AROUND 6:45AM, AND HAD THE REAR WINDOW DEFROST ON. WHILE IN MOTION ON A CITY STREET, I HEARD A LOUD POP COMING FROM THE VEHICLE.THE SOUND WAS LOUD ENOUGH TO BE MISTAKEN FOR A GUN SHOT. AFTER TRYING TO FIGURE OUT WHAT THE NOISE WAS, I NOTICED IN MY REAR VIEW MIRROR THAT THE PASSENGER SIDE REAR WINDOW WAS COMPLETELY CRACKED. I WAS AMAZED THE ENTIRE WINDOW DIDN'T COLLAPSE INWARD. AFTER COMING TO A STOP AND INSPECTING THE WINDOW CLOSER, I WAS UNABLE TO SEE WHERE ANY FOREIGN OBJECT IMPACTED THE WINDOW. I BELIEVE THIS INCIDENT WAS CAUSED BY THE REAR WINDOW DEFROST HEATING THE WINDOW TOO RAPIDLY AND CAUSING THE CLASS TO EXPAND TOO MUCH, CAUSING THE FAILURE.

THE STEERING GOT VARY TIGHT ON THE HIGHWAY. THEN I GOT OFF THE HIGHWAY AND PULLED INTO A PARKING LOT. SUDDENLY THE STEERING WHEEL BROKE WHILE ENTERING THE PARKING LOT.I COULD MOVE THE STEERING WHEEL. BUT IT WAS NOT TURNING THE TIRES. THANKFULLY I WAS IN A PARKING LOT AND NOT ON THE HIGHWAY WHICH I HAD JUST LEFT. IF I WAS ON THE HIGHWAY I WOULD NOT BE WRITING THIS COMPLAINT. BECAUSE I WOULD BE IN THE HOSPITAL OR DEAD!

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2010 FORD F-150. WHILE DRIVING 15 MPH, THE VEHICLE STALLED WITHOUT WARNING AND WAS UNABLE TO BE RESTARTED.

THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS CONTACTED. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 124,000.

FUSE 27 HAD FAILED TURNING OFF THE VEHICLE. REFER TO TSB NO. 15-0137 BUT FORD HAS NOT RECALLED

1. I AM NOT ALONE IN A COMPLAINT ABOUT THE FUEL CANISTER BEING A PROBLEM ON THE F150- I HAVE COMPLAINED ABOUT THIS TWICE NOW- OTHERS IN THE FORUM ARE DOING THE SAME. THE VAPOR CANISTER IN THE ENGINE COMPARTMENT BECOMES FAULTY AND THE ENGINES STALL OR RUNS ROUGH- WHEN IT STALLS, IT IS IMPOSSIBLE TO STEER. I GREW UP WITHOUT POWER STEERING- 97$ OUT OF POCKET- DEALER COULDN'T FIGURE IT OUT- HAD ANOTHER MECHANIC DIAGNOSE AND REPAIR. IT'S A SIMPLE FIX- YET CAN BE DANGEROUS IF SOMEONE WITH STRONG ARM STRENGTH CANNOT TURN THE VEHICLE OR USE THE BREAKS. THIS HAS TO BE LOOKED AT.! I SHOULD HAVE BEEN REIMBURSED! WAITING FOR SOMEONE TO GET KILLED IS INEXCUSABLE- HAPPENED WITH JUST 35K MILES ON TRUCK. 2. SEEMS FORD HAS A MEGA DEFECT WITH BAD DESIGN ON THEIR F150 POWER REAR WINDOWS WITH THE HEAT GRIDS GOING BAD- THIS HAPPENED AT MAYBE THE SAME TIME, AND UNLESS I SPEND 1000 DOLLARS, I HAVE NO REAR-WINDOW DEFOGGING- THIS WAS NEARLY A 50K VEHICLE, AND JUST STARTED TO FALL APART AFTER THE WARRANTY. THIS IS A BAD DESIGN- IF ICE AND ALL IN THE SOUTH, MANY DO NOT HAVE THE PREPARATIONS FOR THIS (I GREW UP IN THE NORTH). I STILL CAN'T DEFROST MY REAR WINDOW), BUT HAVE A SCRAPER 3. HIGH MOUNT BRAKE LIGHT- SEEMS, FORD REFUSES TO FIX A BAD DESIGN FOR FAULTY HIGH MOUNT THIRD BRAKE LIGHT- CHEAP GASKET WILL FADE, AND MANY OF USE (MYSELF RECENTLY) HAVE PROBLEMS WITH WATER DRIPPING INSIDE THE CAB- 100 PLUS BUCKS FOR A NEW ONE? CAN'T EVEN BUY THE GASKET?? AND LET'S ADD TO THE FACT THE LIGHTS ARE SO BADLY DE

VEHICLE WOULD STALL AT RANDOM WHILE DRIVING. MECHANICS AT FORD ADVISED THAT IT WAS RELAY WIRE OR HARNESS WIRES FOR THE AIRBAG SENSORS THAT RAN THROUGH THE FUEL TANK WERE CORRODED OR SHORTED OUT. THEY REPORTED THAT THE ENGINEERS AT FORD MADE A BAD CALL WHEN THEY DECIDED TO RUN THE WIRES THROUGH THE FUEL TANK, WHICH IN TURN RESULTED IN ME HAVING TO DISH OUT 1500 BUCKS FOR THE REPAIR. THIS ISSUE OCCURRED MULTIPLE TIMES PRIOR TO THE REPAIR ON A TRUCK WITH LESS THAN 53000 MILES AT THE TIME, BETWEEN DURING MARCH OR APRIL OF 2014 WHEN I FIRST PURCHASED THE USED TRUCK. LOST ALL POWER AT VARIOUS SPEEDS AND ON SEVERAL ROAD TYPES INCLUDING HIGHWAY, HIGHWAY SERVICE ROAD, RESIDENTIAL STREET AND FARM TO MARKET ROAD, WHILE GOING STRAIT AND DURING TURNS, AFTER MULTIPLE EVENTS AND HAVING PUT LESS THAN 1000 MILES ON IT, I TOOK IT UP TO FORD. GRATEFUL THAT NO ACCIDENTS OCCURED DURING THE EPISODES I EXPERIENCED. I WAS ABLE TO COMETO A STOP, PLACE THE TRUCK IN PARK AND RESTART IT. TTINCE THE REPAIR NO ISSUES. LOVE THE F SERIES PICK UPS AND HAVE OWNED SEVERAL OVER A SPAN OF 18 YEARS AND ITS ALL MY DADS COMPANY USES. I KNOW ITS BEEN ALMOST 4 YEARS SINCE HAVING THE ISSUE BUT FELT LIKE I NEEDED TO SAY SOMETHING TO AT LEAST GIVE OTHERS A HEAD UP OR WARNING. NEVER SET WELL WITH ME. I STILL HAVE THE REPAIR PAPERWORK IF NEEDED.

I TOOK MY FORD F150 TO THE DEALER FOR A ROUTINE OIL AND TIRE ROTATION. THE SERVICE REP CAME TO ME AND SAID THAT IT WILL TAKE A LITTLE LONGER FOR SERVICE BECAUSE YOUR LUG NUTS ARE SWELLING. HE EXPLAINED TO ME THAT I SHOULD PURCHASE NEW LUG NUTS BECAUSE A SPECIAL DEALER TOOL IS NEEDED TO REMOVE THE SWELLED LUG NUT. IF I HAVE A FLAT TIRE, I WOULD NOT BE ABLE TO CHANGE IT DO TO THE SWELLED LUG NUTS WHICH WOULD REQUIRE A TOW TO A FORD DEALER. FORD KNOWS OF THE PROBLEM WITH THE LUGNUTS SWELLING, WHICH IS WHY THEY HAVE A SPECIAL TOOL. THE SERVICE REP STATED THAT I COULD PURCHASE LUGNUTS FROM FORD AND WOULD BE CHARGED $500.00 FOR THE REPAIR. THE PROPER LUGNUTS SHOULD HAVE BEEN INSTALLED ON MY VEHICLE WHEN IT WAS BUILT. THIS TO ME IS A SAFETY HAZARD WITH A POSSIBLE FUTURE ROADSIDE ACCIDENT WAITING TO HAPPEN.

REAR WINDOW GLASS EXPLODED WITH REAR DEFROSTER ON, DURING SNOW STORM

11/29/18 WILL BE THE 6TH TIME MY ENGINE SHUT OFF WHEN COMING TO A STOP AND MAKING A TURN. OTHER 5 INCIDENTS WERE ABOUT 3 YEARS AGO. EACH OCCASION, SLOWING DOWN TO A STOP, ENGINE SHUTS OFF WHILE MAKING A TURN, AND I PUT IT IN NEUTRAL WHILE PRESSING BRAKES, STARTS UP, AND I KEEP GOING DOWN THE ROAD. 122K MILES, LOVE THE TRUCK BUT THIS HAS ME VERY CONCERNED FOR MY FAMILY RIDING IN THE TRUCK. I LOOKED UP ANY RECALLS BUT DID NOT FIND ANYTHING REGARDING THIS. F-150 FORUMS HAVE THE EXACT SAME INCIDENTS AND WHEN TAKING TO FORD DEALERSHIP, THEY CANNOT FIND ANYTHING WRONG. PLEASE LET ME KNOW MY OPTIONS OF GETTING FORD TO DO SOMETHING.

STEERING GETS HARD AND EASY WHEN DRIVING SEEMS DANGEROUS?? OR SETTING TURNING DIFFERENT SPEEDS
