2010 Ford F-150 complaints

OUR 2010 FORD F-150 PLATINUM TRUCK CAUGHT FIRE WHILE MY HUSBAND WAS DRIVING HE HAD TO JUMP OUT OF THE CAR TO SURVIVE. IT LOOKS LIKE THE GAS TANK CAUGHT ON FIRE AND THE ENTIRE TRUCK WAS ENGULFED IN FLAMES AND COMPLETELY BURNED UP IN A FEW SECONDS. I HAVE PICTURES OF THE BURNED OUT TRUCK AND A VIDEO OF THE LAST PART OF THE FIRE.

2010 F150 DIED TWICE WHILE DRIVING IN LOWER SPEED ON INTERSTATE AND IN PARKING LOT. SPEED WAS LESS THAN 15 MILES PER HOUR (INTERSTATE SPEED WAS REDUCED DUE TO CONSTRUCTION). IT ALSO DIED WHEN PARKED IN IDLE. THE ONLY "CHECK ENGINE LIGHT" THAT APPEARED WAS THE OIL LIGHT. THE VEHICLE WAS INSPECTED AT A FORD DEALER BUT THEY WERE UNABLE TO FIND THE HISTORY OF THE ISSUES USING THE DIAGNOSTIC TOOLS NOR WERE THEY ABLE TO RECREATE THE ISSUE. WHEN VEHICLE DIED WHILE IN MOTION IT WAS IN DRIVE. WHEN IT DIED I LOST THE CAPABILITY TO TURN THE STEERING WHEEL OR USE BRAKES. IN ALL SITUATIONS THE VEHICLE RESTARTED AND FUNCTIONED AS NORMAL.

AS I WAS APPROACHING A SCHOOL ZONE I WAS SLOWING DOWN TO STOP FOR A CROSSING GUARD ,SLIGHTLY SLIPPERY, WITH MY FOOT APPLIED TO BRAKE THE REAR WHEEL STARTED SPINNING OUT OF CONTROL,THE TAC PEGGED , THE TRACSHION CONTROL LIGHT FLASHED REPEATEDLY, I EMEDITLY JAMMED THE TRANSMISSION INTO PARK, AND SHUT OFF THE TRUCK.RESTARTED IT AND IT WAS THEN OK, HAS NOT HAPPENED SINCE. WENT TO FORD DEALER THEY CHECKED THE COMPUTER AND FOUND NO ERROR CODES, THIS IS GOT THE POTENTIAL TO CAUSE MAJOR INJURIES. MY WIFE NOW REFUSES TO DRIVE MY TRUCK. DO NO WHAT TO DO,NEED HELP IN THIS MATTER!

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2010 FORD F-150. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE INSTRUMENT CLUSTER FLICKERED ON AND OFF INTERMITTENTLY. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE INSTRUMENT CLUSTER FAILURE CAUSED THE AIR CONDITIONER TO FAIL. WHEN THE INSTRUMENT CLUSTER RESUMED OPERATION, THE AIR CONDITIONER BEGAN WORKING AGAIN.

THE CONTACT WAS INFORMED THAT THE INSTRUMENT CLUSTER NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURES. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 76,000. THE VIN WAS UNAVAILABLE.

VEHICLE VIBRATES AND HESITATES TO ACCELERATE TO THE POINT WHERE THE TRUCK ENGINE WILL SHUT OFF AROUND 1500 RPM ON BOTH HIGHWAY SPEED AND NORMAL STREET SPEED. I TOOK IT TO A LOCAL FORD DEALERSHIP, AND THEY SAID THERE'S NOTHING WRONG WITH IT OR MAYBE THEY JUST DON'T KNOW WHERE IT'S COMING FROM SINCE THE ENGINE LIGHT IS NOT ON.

MY VEHICLE HAD TO BE SERVICED THREE TIMES AT THREE SEPARATE DEALERSHIPS LAST YEAR. DUE TO AN ELECTRICAL ISSUE. THIS ISSUE CAUSED THE DASHBOARD TO SHUT OFF EVEN WHILE DRIVING, MAKING IT IMPOSSIBLE TO DETERMINE SPEED AND FUEL LEVEL. THE AC WOULD ALSO GO OUT AND THE WINDOWS CEASED TO WORK. IF THE TRUCK WAS RUNNING WHEN THIS OCCURRED IT WOULD CONTINUE TO FUNCTION BUT WITHOUT ELECTRICAL FUNCTIONS. ONCE THE TRUCK WAS TURNED OFF, IT COULD NOT BE RESTARTED. MY VEHICLE HAD TO BE TOWED THREE TIMES FOR REPAIRS. THE FIRST OCCURRENCE WAS IN DRY CREEK, LA (60MIN FROM MY HOUSE), THE SECOND OCCURRED IN NEW ORLEANS, LA JUST PRIOR TO A BUSINESS MEETING (3 HOURS FROM HOME), AND THE THIRD TIME OCCURRED WITH MY FAMILY IN OUR HOME TOWN OF LAKE CHARLES. BOLTON FORD MADE IT SEEM IT LIKE IT WAS ME WHO CAUSED THE PROBLEM. THE TRUCK HASN'T HAD AN ISSUE YET BUT WE SHALL SEE. DEALING WITH FORD CONCERNING THIS ISSUE WAS AN ORDEAL I HOPE I NEVER HAVE TO REPEAT. I STILL DON'T KNOW WHAT WAS WRONG WITH THE TRUCK SINCE THREE DIFFERENT DEALERSHIPS CONDUCTED THREE DIFFERENT REPAIRS.

THE FRONT BRAKES WERE NOT RELEASING. AS I TRAVELED AROUND TOWN COMPLETING SOME ERRANDS I SMELT THE BRAKES BURNING. WHEN I RETURNED HOME I DISCOVERED MY CALIPERS WAS NOT RELEASING. I HAVE REPLACED THE FRONT ROTORS, BRAKE LINES AND CALIPERS.

FORD: THE COMPLETE CALIPER ASSEMBLY, BRACKET (ANCHOR PLATE), BRAKE PADS, ROTORS AND CLIPS NEEDS TO BE REPLACED DUE TO STICKING OR BINDING OF FRONT BRAKE CALIPER.

DRIVERS MIRROR WAS FOGGY DUE TO EARLY MORNING MOISTURE. TURNED ON MY HEATED MIRRORS WHICH ARE ALSO CONNECTED TO THE REAR SLIDING WINDOW DEFROSTER. ABOUT 2 MINUTES LATER WHILE DRIVING I HEARD A LOUD SOUND, LIKE A GUNSHOT. THE PASSENGER SIDE BACK GLASS HAD SHATTERED DUE TO THE DEFROSTER IMBEDDED IN THE GLASS.

HAD JUST COMPLETED AN OIL CHANGE IN NOVATO, CA AT THE OIL CHANGERS. WHEN DRIVING HOME ON THE FREEWAY AT APPROXIMATELY 65MPH THE ENGINE LOST ALL POWER. (STEPPING ON THE ACCELERATOR HAD NO RESPONSE AND THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON) I COASTED THE VEHICLE ONTO THE SHOULDER OF THE HIGHWAY AND CAME TO A COMPLETE STOP, TURNING OFF THE ENGINE. CHECKED THE OIL PLUG WAS STILL IN THE OIL DRAIN PAN AND EVERYTHING LOOKED OK. THE VEHICLE STARTED BACK UP WITHOUT ISSUE AND HAS BEEN RUNNING FINE SINCE.

MY 2010 FORD F-150 AIR CONDITION SYSTEM BLOWS OUT COOL AIR ON THE DRIVERS SIDE AND HOT AIR ON THE PASSENGER SIDE.WHEN THE AIR IS TURNED ON.

THE TRUCK HAS HAD THIS ISSUE SINCE I'VE PURCHASED THE TRUCK BUT CAN NEVER DUPLICATE THE ISSUE WHILE AT THE DEALERSHIP. THE 1ST TIME THE ENGINE WOULD CRANK BUT WOULD NOT FIRE. THE SECOND TIME, I WAS DRIVING AND THE TRUCK JUST STOPPED. I WAS LUCKY ENOUGH SOME PASSING BY MOTORIST HELPED TO PUSH IT OUT OF THE INTERSECTION. 3RD TIME, THE TRUCK WAS PARKED AND DID NOT START. AFTER TROUBLESHOOTING THE ISSUE, THE FUEL PUMP RELAY FUSE BURNED OUT. NORMALLY FUSES JUST POP, THIS ONE JUST BURNED OUT TO WHERE I COULD NOT TAKE OUT THE FUSE. TOOK THE TRUCK TO WAS BOUGHT AT AND AFTER A FEW HOURS, THE PROBLEM WAS LOCATED. THE SHOP FOREMAN STATED THAT THEY HAVE HAD ALOT OF TRUCKS GO IN WITH THE SAME ISSUE. ONLY REASON I MAKING A COMPLAINT IS DUE TO THAT COMMENT. IT IS A SAFETY ISSUE WHEN I WAS DRIVING AND TRUCK SHUTS OFF IN THE MIDDLE OF THE INTERSECTION. WHAT IF MY SONS WERE WITH ME? HOPE THIS GETS RESOLVED AND A RECALLED IS MADE BEFORE SOMETHING WORSE HAPPENS TO SOMEONE ELSE. THANK YOU. *TR

WHILE SLOWING TO APPROXIMATLY 20 MPH TO MAKE A LEFT TURN AT A STOP LIGHT THE ENGINE DIED AND ALL BRAKING AND POWER STEERING WAS LOST. WHILE STILL PARTIALLY BLOKING THE INTERSECTION I PLACED THE TRANSSMISION IN PARK AND RESTARTED THE ENGINE. NO ENGINE FAULT CODES WERE DISPLAYED. I DROVE TO THE LOCAL DEALER IMMEDIATELY AFTER THE INCIDENT. DEALER STATED THAT IF NO FAULT LIGHT WAS PRESENT THEY COULD NOT DETERMINE THE CAUSE. SO FAR THIS HAS ONLY HAPPENED ONE TIME.

WHILE DRIVING ON THE EXPRESSWAY GOING TO WORK, ON A COLD OCTOBER MORNING. THE REAR DEFROST WAS ON AND THE RIGHT SIDE REAR WINDOW EXPLODED WITH AN INCREDIBLE POPPING SOUND

EXHAUST MANIFOLD STUDS BREAKING CAUSING EXHAUST GAS LEAKAGE 5.4L 3 VALVE FLEX-FUEL ON BOTH LEFT AND RIGHT SIDE. FORD MOTOR COMPANY DECLINED TO COVER COSTS TO REPAIR. INTERNET FULL OF COMPLAINTS ON THIS PROBLEM AND FOMOCO IGNORES KNOWS DESIGN FLAW.

PERSONNEL / NON COMMERCIAL PICK UP PURCHASED NEW BY MYSELF-LESS THAN 26K MILES I LIVE INLAND NOT BY THE OCEAN OR SALT AIR THE PAINT IS BLISTERING WITH RUST BUBBLES.

REAR GLASS SHATTERING WHEN REAR DEFROSTER IS TURNED ON IN COLD WEATHER. MY VEHICLE EXPERIENCED THE REAR WINDOW SHATTERING (DRIVER SIDE OF 3 SEGMENT WINDOW) WHEN THE REAR DEFROSTER WAS TURNED ON DURING COLD WEATHER (APPROXIMATELY 10 DEG F AMBIENT TEMP). THE VEHICLE HAD COLD SOAKED (NO MOVEMENT OR KEY POWER FOR 10 HOURS IN THE COLD WEATHER PRIOR TO THE WINDOW SHATTERING WHEN THE DEFROSTER WAS TURNED ON. THE VEHICLE WAS STARTED (NO SNOW OR ICE ON VEHICLE) AND THE REAR DEFROSTER ENGAGED. THE VEHICLE WAS PLACED INTO DRIVE AND MOVED APPROXIMATELY 500 FEET. WHEN STOPPED AT A STOP SIGN A LOUD POPPING SOUND, SIMILAR TO A GUN SHOT STARTLED ME. I LOOKED AROUND AND NOTICED THE GLASS WAS SHATTERED. THE GLASS RETAINED IN THE ORIGINAL FRAME. THE VEHICLE HAD 30,000 MILES. NO OTHER VEHICLE OR PERSON WAS ANYWHERE IN SIGHT - MY FIRST THOUGHT WAS POSSIBLY THIS WAS DUE TO SOMEONE THROWING SOMETHING AT MY VEHICLE.

"IGNITION CYLINDER FELL OUT WHILE DRIVING. WHILE DRIVING MY VEHICLE THE IGNITION CYLINDER (INCLUDING MY KEYS) FELL OUT OF THE STEERING COLUMN. THE VEHICLE KEPT RUNNING, POWER STEERING AND BRAKES WERE STILL FUNCTIONING AND STEERING WHEEL WAS ABLE TO BE TURNED. I PULLED OVER TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD AND FOUND THE IGNITION CYLINDER CONTAINING MY KEYS ON THE FLOOR MAT OF MY VEHICLE. I WAS ABLE TO DRIVE THE VEHICLE HOME - HOWEVER I WAS NOT ABLE TO TURN OFF THE ENGINE WITH THE KEY AFTER I ARRIVED HOME. I PULLED THE NEGATIVE BATTERY CABLE TO KILL THE ENGINE. I CALLED DORIAN FORD AND WAS TOLD THIS IS A COMMON FAILURE AND FOR $375 THIS COULD BE FIXED (PER ROXANNE, SERVICE ADVISOR @ DORIAN FORD). I FOUND THIS INCREDIBLE THAT A SERVICE ADVISOR WOULD INDICATE THIS IS A COMMON FAILURE. THIS WAS QUITE SCARY FOR THE FIRST FEW MOMENTS WHEN I HEARD THE CYLINDER FALL OUT AND THEN HIT MY LEG ON ITS WAY TO THE FLOOR. MY FIRST THOUGHT WAS THIS IS THE SAME SCENARIO THAT OCCURRED ON GM VEHICLES WITH THE IGNITION CYLINDER.

WHILE DRIVING THE REAR GLASS SHATTERED ON THE RIGHT SIDE OF THE POWER SLIDING WINDOW.

TRAVELING AT 45 MPH ON A HIGHWAY I APPLIED BRAKES TO SLOW DOWN WHEN THE BRAKE FLUID LEVEL WARNING LIGHT CAME ON. BRAKE PEDAL WENT ALL THE WAY TO THE FLOOR BEFORE SLOWING THE VEHICLE, HAD TO DOWNSHIFT AND APPLY THE EMERGENCY BRAKE. TOWED VEHICLE TO THE DEALER WHERE IT WAS DETERMINED THE MASTER CYLINDER FAILED DRAWING BRAKE FLUID INTO THE POWER BRAKE BOOSTER. NO VISIBLE SIGN OF A BRAKE FLUID LEAK. MASTER CYLINDER AND POWER BRAKE BOOSTER MUST BE REPLACED. VEHICLE HAS 80,000 MILES . SOUNDS LIKE THE SAME PROBLEM IN A RECALL ON 2014-15 F150 BUT NO SUCH RECALL FOR THE 2010 F150.

BOUGHT NEW IN APRIL 2010, FORD XLT150. NOW AT 73K MI. LAST TWO WEEKS. COULD NOT START TWICE AFTER FILLING UP. HAD TO KEEP FLOORING VEHICLE TO CRANK OVER.HI PERFORMANCE BATTERY IS TWO MTHS OLD. DIED AT RED LIGHT THREE TIMES. DIED AT YIELD SIGN TWICE.DIED AT BANK ATM ONCE. LOST STEERING CONTROL WHEN ENGINE DIED COMING OUT OF YIELD SIGN. LUCKILY HIT NO ONE.TOOK IT TO FORD DEALERSHIP,ASKED ABOUT RECALL NOTICE OR IF OTHERS HAD SIMILAR PROBLEMS. NEGATIVE RESPONSE ON BOTH. TOLD THEM THOUSANDS OF SAME PROBLEM POSTED ON INTERNET. THEY TOLD ME MANY PEOPLE JUST POST STUFF. MANY POSTERS SAID FORD DEALERS COMPUTERS SHOWED NO PROBLEM WHEN TRUCK IS HOOKED UP.TAKING IT TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC SHOP. TOO DANGEROUS TO KEEP DRIVING. WILL INJURE SOMEONE AND MYSELF,OR WORSE. WILL BE NOTIFYING FORD.

2010 FORD F150 WITH JUST OVER 60,000 MILES. WHILE DRIVING, THE VEHICLE FAILS AND THE ENGINE SHUTS DOWN ENTIRELY. THIS HAPPENS INTERMITTENTLY WHEN THE TRUCK COMES TO A STOP, BUT HAS ALSO HAPPENED WHILE DRIVING CASUALLY AT APPROXIMATELY 45 MPH ON CITY STREETS. THIS HAS HAPPENED MULTIPLE TIMES. PERSONAL INVESTIGATION HAS LED TO FINDING NUMEROUS REPORTS ONLINE OF THE SAME OR WORSE PROBLEMS WITH THIS MODEL/YEAR OF FORD TRUCK. RESEARCH HAS LEAD TO SHOW THAT THERE SEEMS TO BE A FACTORY ISSUE WITH THE FUEL/AIR SYSTEM ON THE VEHICLE. NUMEROUS OTHER REPORTS ONLINE OF THE TRUCK FAILING WHILE DRIVING AND EVEN CAUSING ACCIDENTS IN SOME INSTANCES. THIS IS A VERY SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUE AS IT ENDANGERS THE LIVES OF THOSE IN THIS VEHICLE AS WELL AS OTHERS ON THE ROADWAY. A RECALL NEEDS TO BE IMPLEMENTED IMMEDIATELY BY THE MANUFACTURER TO RECTIFY THIS WRONGDOING.

SPARK PLUG BLEW OUT OF NUMBER 2 CYLINDER WITH NO WARNING.

BRAKE PADS ARE NOT LASTING MORE THAN ONE YEAR AND IS LOSING BRAKE FLUID.

I OWN A 2010 FORD F-150 FX4 PICKUP, PURCHASED NEW OCTOBER 2009. APPROXIMATELY IN 2013 THE REAR WINDOW DEFROSTER STOPPED WORKING. THE TRUCK IS EQUIPPED WITH A POWER REAR SLIDING WINDOW FROM FORD. I TOOK THE TRUCK TO MY LOCAL FORD DEALER TO ADDRESS THE ISSUE. THE FORD DEALER SERVICE DEPARTMENT ADVISED ME THE PROBLEM WAS WITH THE WINDOW ITSELF, AND WOULD NOT BE COVERED UNDER WARRANTY, OR FORD AT ALL. I HAVE NOTICED MANY COMPLAINTS ON THE WEB FROM OWNERS OF FORD PICKUPS OF THE SAME YEAR AND MODEL, THE MAJORITY OF THEM EXPERIENCING BROKEN REAR WINDOWS, SMOKE AND DAMAGE. LIKE MANY, I HAVE A SMALL CHILD THAT SITS IN A REAR FACING CHILD'S CAR SEAT, AND AM VERY CONCERNED ABOUT THIS PROBLEM. IT IS VERY APPARENT FORD IS AWARE OF THIS SAFETY ISSUE, BUT IS NOT WILLING TO ADMIT TO IT, OR TAKE STEPS TO ADDRESS IT. THIS ISSUE IS A TICKING TIME BOMB FOR FORD PICKUP OWNERS, ALWAYS WORRYING IF IT WILL HAPPEN TO THEM, AND WHEN.

WHILE USING THE REAR WINDOW DEFROSTERS, THE REAR PASSENGER WINDOW SHATTERED. THIS IS THE SECOND TIME THIS HAS HAPPENED TO THIS VEHICLE. THE FIRST TIME, FORD COVERED IT AS A WARRANTY. THIS TIME THEY WILL NOT COVER IT SINCE IT IS OVER 100,000 MILES. BOTH THE SERVICE MANAGER AT THE FORD DEALERSHIP AND THE CUSTOMER CARE REPRESENTATIVES ACKNOWLEDGE THIS HAS BEEN A PROBLEM WITH THESE VEHICLES. BOTH TIMES THE WINDOW SHATTERED OCCURRED WHILE DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY. THE FIRST OCCURRENCE HAPPENED IN JUNE AND THE SECOND TIME WAS IN FEBRUARY. TEMPERATURES WERE EXTREMELY DIFFERENT. JUNE WAS IN THE MID 70'S AND FEBRUARY WAS 0 - 5F. THE SHATTERED GLASS WENT ALL OVER THE REAR PASSENGER SEAT. CLEAN UP WAS A HAZARD AS THE GLASS IS VERY SHARP.

TURNED ON THE REAR DEFROST ON THE VEHICLE THIS MORNING AS IT WAS SITTING STILL WARMING UP. TEMP=40F. CAME OUTSIDE WITH THE BACK GLASS SMOKING AND ON FIRE, MELTING THE PLASTIC TRIM ON THE PASSENGER SIDE OF THE BACK GLASS. MINUTES LATER THE GLASS BROKE, SPIDERING THE ENTIRE PANEL ON THE PASSENGER SIDE.

2010 FORD F150 STALLS WHEN GOING SLOW, AND TURNING LEFT. THE OIL LIGHT CAME ON AND I LOST ALL POWER I HAD TO PUT IN PARK AND RESTART. TOOK ABOUT 5 TRIES FOR THE TRUCK TO RESTART. IT DID THE SAME THING AGAIN ABOUT FIVE MINUTES LATER WHILE MAKING ANOTHER LEFT TURN. ALSO, DIED WHEN I WAS SITTING AT A LIGHT PREPARING TO TURN RIGHT.

WAS OPERATING THE REAR WINDOW DEFOGGER AND THE REAR PASSENGER SIDE SECTION OF THE POWER REAR WINDOW SLIDER SHATTERED. THE LOCAL FORD DEALER ACKNOWLEDGED IT IS A PROBLEM BUT FORD HAS NOT RECALLED. THE LOCAL WINDOW REPAIR COMPANY SAID THAT MOST TIMES IT IS THE PASSENGER SIDE THAT SHATTERS. THE TRUCK IS OUT OF WARRANTY AND REPAIR IS NOT COVERE.

I WAS PARKED IN MY VEHICLE, WAS ABOUT 25 DEGREES OUTSIDE I HAD MY REAR WINDOW DEFROSTER ON AFTER ABOUT 10 MINS OF BEING ON THE BACK GLASS PASSENGER SIDE POPPED.

I WAS DRIVING THIS MORNING WITH THE TEMPERTURE AROUND 30DEGREES. I TURNED ON MY REAR DEFROST TO THAW MY MIRRORS AND REAR GLASS OF FROST. WITHIN 10 MINUTES OF LEAVING MY DRIVEWAY, WHILE DRIVING I HEARD A LARGE POP THAT RESEMBLED A GUN SHOT, MY DAUGHTER STARTED SCREAMING AND STATED MY BACK WINDOW HAD BROKEN. THERE ARE BURN MARKS ON THE DEFROST CONTACTS, SHARDS OF SAFETY GLASS OFF OF MY WINDOW THAT SHOT OUT WHEN EXPLODED WITH MY 5 YEAR OLD DAUGHTER IN THE REAR SEAT AND HER CAR SEAT. VEHICLE WAS IN MOTION APPROX 55 MPH. THE SOUND ALONE CAUSED ME TO LOCK UP MY BRAKES OUT OF INSTINCT TO INVESTIGATE THE LOUD NOISE THAT SOUNDED LIKE A GUN SHOT AND TO EXAMINE THE VEHICLE. THIS IS A SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUE AND NEEDS TO BE ADDRESSED! THERE WAS A BURNING SMELL OF WHAT SMELT LIKE ELECTRICAL WIRE BURNING PRESENT WHEN THIS HAPPENED AND MINIMAL SMOKE IN THE BACK OF THE VEHICLE.

TAKATA INFLATORS???? INVOLVED IN A FRONT IMPACT COLLISION, THE AIR BAGS DEPLOYED. I RECEIVED MINOR LACERATIONS ON BOTH MY FIGHT HAND AND LEFT ARM FROM DEBRIS FROM THE AIRBAG. ONE SMALL PIECE WAS STILL EMBEDDED IN MY RIGHT HAND. OTHER THAN THE DEBRIS, THE AIRBAG DEPLOYMENT WAS AS IT SHOULD BE.

WHILE OPERATING THE VEHICLE ON A COLD MORNING, I ENGAGED THE REAR WINDOW DEFROSTER. THE CAR WAS IN TRAFFIC ON THE INTERSTATE ON WI HWY 45 TRAVELLING 70 MPH. SHORTLY 2-5 MINUTES OF TURNING ON THE ELECTRIC DEFROSTER, THE GLASS SHATTERED RATHER VIOLENTLY SENDING GLASS INTO THE PASSENGER COMPARTMENT AND TRUCK BED.

JANUARY 16, 2016 DRIVING IN THE FORD F150, TEMPERATURE ABOUT 55 DEGREES, WINDOWS WERE FOGGED A LITTLE, USED THE DEFROSTERS. HEARD A LOUD BANG, LOOKED AROUND TO SEE THE PASSENGER SIDE OF THE REAR WINDOW SHATTERED.

IT WAS 7 DEGREES THIS MORNING AND THERE WAS ICE ON MY REAR WINDOW. I TURNED ON THE ELECTRIC DEFROST AND ABOUT 5 MINUTES LATER I HEAR A LOUD BANG. THE PASSENGER SIDE REAR WINDOW EXPLODED / SHATTERED INTO PIECES. WE CALLED FORD AND THEY ARE NOT WILLING TO RECTIFY THE SITUATION OR ADDRES IT IN ANY WAY.

4TH TIME IN LESS THAN A YEAR MY POWER STEERING HOSE HAS BLOWN OFF WHEN I START THE TRUCK WHEN THE TEMP IS BELOW 0 DEGREES F. IT WAS DOUBLE CLAMPED AND BEEN REPAIRED BY PROFESSIONALS MULTIPLE TIMES. THIS SHOULD BE RECALLED AND FIXED.

I WAS DRIVING ALONG THE HIGHWAY, AT APPROXIMATELY 60 MPH, ATTEMPTING TO PASS ANOTHER VEHICLE. WHEN I PRESSED ON THE ACCELERATOR IT GOT STUCK, THE GAS PEDAL WENT TO THE FLOOR AND TRUCK ACCELERATED RAPIDLY ON IT'S OWN. I MASHED THE BRAKES TO THE FLOOR AND THE ENGINE CONTINUED TO REV AND OVER POWER THE BRAKES. I PUT MY TRUCK IN NEUTRAL, AND AFTER AN ABRUPT JERK, I PULLED OVER TO THE FAR LANE AS THE TIRES SCREECHED TO A STOP. THERE WAS NO SHOULDER AND THERE WERE GUARD RAILS BLOCKING ME FROM GETTING TO THE MEDIAN AND NO EXITS NEARBY, ALL THE WHILE THE TRUCK IS CONTINUING TO REV OUT. I SHUT MY TRUCK OFF WITH THE KEY, AS SOON AS I COULD, TO AVOID DAMAGING THE ENGINE OR TRANSMISSION DUE TO THE HIGH RPMS. AFTER WE SAT, STOPPED, ON THE FAR LANE OF THE HIGHWAY FOR ABOUT 30 SECONDS (CARS FLYING BY HONKING) I TRIED TO START THE TRUCK BACK UP AND IT WOULDN'T START, TURNED IT OVER AGAIN AND IT STARTED. OBVIOUSLY, THIS WAS A VERY DANGEROUS SITUATION, AS WE WERE ON A 4 LANE HIGHWAY WITH TRAFFIC GOING 60+ MPH ALL AROUND US, MY WIFE AND 2 SMALL CHILDREN WERE IN THE TRUCK AT THE TIME. THERE SHOULD BE SOME KIND OF BRAKE OVERRIDE FOR AN UNINTENDED AND OUT OF CONTROL ACCELERATION LIKE WHAT WE EXPERIENCED. I WOKE UP THE NEXT MORNING WITH A CRICK IN MY NECK, HOPEFULLY IT'S JUST STRESS AND NOT AN ACTUAL INJURY. I'M THANKFUL NO ONE WAS SERIOUSLY HURT. FORD, YOU NEED TO DO SOMETHING ABOUT THIS BEFORE SOMEONE GETS INJURED, OR WORSE.

WHILE DRIVING DOWN THE HIGHWAY, I TURNED ON THE REAR WINDOW DEFROSTER TO MELT SOME SNOW ON THAT WINDOW. NO CARS IN SIGHT IN EITHER DIRECTION. SUDDENLY THERE WAS A LOAD NOISE (ALMOST LIKE A GUNSHOT). THE BACK SLIDING WINDOW PANEL ON THE PASSENGER SIDE BLEW OUT. THERE APPEARED A HOLE ABOUT THE SIZE OF A SOFTBALL. THE REST OF THE SAME PANEL WAS SHATTERED. MY WIFE AND I LITERALLY JUMPED. SHE HOLLERED. AT FIRST WE THOUGHT SOMEONE HAD SHOT THE WINDOW. I CAN ONLY IMAGINE WHAT WOULD HAVE HAPPENED IF SOMEONE WAS SITTING IN THE BACK SEAT IN FRONT OF THE WINDOW WHEN IT BLEW. I ASKED THE MAN WHO INSTALLED THE NEW ONE AND HE SAID HE DOES ABOUT 5 OF THESE A YEAR. I CHECKED ONLINE, AND ONE WEBSITE HAD 104 COMPLAINTS ABOUT THE F150 WINDOW BLOWING OUT. I THINK THIS SHOULD BE CHECKED INTO. *JS

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2010 FORD F-150. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WATER LEAKED INSIDE THE VEHICLE DURING INCLEMENT WEATHER. THE FAILURE OCCURRED WITHOUT WARNING. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER WHERE IT WAS CONFIRMED THAT THE LEAK ORIGINATED FROM THE THIRD BRAKE LIGHT. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 92,000.

WHILE DRIVING I TURNED ON THE DEFROSTER FOR THE BACK WINDOW AND APPROX. 1 MINUTE LATER THE PASSENGER SIDE REAR SECTION OF THE BACK WINDOW SHATTERED I WAS DRIVING ABOUT 25 MILES AN HOUR AFTER MAKING A TURN THIS HAPPENED. *JS

WIFE WAS DRIVING HOME ON A 30 DEGREE SNOWY DAY WITH REAR DEFROSTER ON. BACKED INTO THE GARAGE AND AS SHE TURNED THE TRUCK OFF A LOT BANG OCCURRED. I WAS IN THE GARAGE AT THE TIME AND REALIZED THE PASSENGER REAR WINDOW SPIDER CRACKED AND ESSENTIALLY SHATTERED. FORD SAYS THERE IS NO RECALL, HAD REPLACED THE NEXT DAY FOR 600 DOLLARS.

WHILE DRIVING MY FORD F150 ON A STATE HIGHWAY I TURNED ON THE DEFROST SWITCH FOR THE REAR WINDOW. WITHIN A FEW MINUTES TIME THE REAR WINDOW PANEL SHATTERED WITH A LOUD POP EXPELLING GLASS SHARDES OVER THE REAR SEATING AREA. A SMELL OF BURNING PLASTIC ACCOMPANIED THIS INCIDENT CAUSING ME AND MY FAMILY TO PULL OFF THE ROAD AND EVACUATE THE VEHICLE. THIS TRUCK HAS 58000 MILES ON IT AND FORD SAYS ITS NOT THERE PROBLEM ALTHOUGH AFTER RESEARCHING THIS MANY PEOPLE HAVE HAD THIS SAME EXPERIENCE.

TRUCK STALLS COMING TO A STOP AT RED LIGHTS/STOP SIGNS. ALSO STALLS WHILE SIMPLY DRIVING DOWN A STREET OR HIGHWAY/INTERSTATE. AFTER SHUTTING DOWN RECENTLY (WHILE DRIVING ON THE INTERSTATE), THE TRUCK WAS TOWED. I WAS TRAVELING AT 65MPH ON INTERSTATE AT THE TIME AND WAS ABLE TO DRIFT INTO EMERGENCY LANE. AFTER SEVERAL TESTS, LEARNED THERE WAS A PROBLEM IN THE FUSE BOX. THE FUSE TO THE FUEL PUMP WAS MELTED IN THE FUSE BOX. WAS TOLD THE FUEL PUMP ON THESE YEARS PULLS MORE THAN REQUIRED AMPS AND IS OVERHEATING THE FUSE AND MELTING IT. WAS TOLD THE FUSE BOX WOULD NEED TO BE REPLACED AND FORD HAS A 4 TO 6 WEEK BACK ORDER ON THESE. BECAUSE OF SO MANY ISSUES. NOT FAIR FOR CONSUMERS TO PAY FOR THIS ENGINEERING MISTAKE.

THE TRUCK MISSES AT AN IDLE AND WE ALSO HAD TO HAVE THE DRIVE SHAFT REPLACED.
