2013 Ford F-150 complaints

DEALERSHIP TOLD ME THAT THE ANGLE SENSORS ARE BAD AND THE ENTIRE RACK AND PINION NEED REPLACED, UPON FURTHER RESEARCH I'VE SEEN VEHICLES WITH THE SAME PROBLEM SUDDENLY LOOSE STEERING AND WERE INVOLVED IN ACCIDENTS, MY VEHICLE LUCKILY HASN'T HAD ANY ISSUES YET OTHER THAN KNOWING MINES GOING BAD AND I FELL IT'S A SAFETY CONCERN THAT I DO NOT WANT TO PUT MYSELF OR OTHERS IN HARM WAY AND THE DEALERSHIP TOLD ME THERE ARE NO RECALLS FOR THE RACK AND PINION.

TIMING CHAIN RATTLE ON ECOBOOST ENGINE, I BELIEVE FORD ISSUED A BULLETIN ON IT, I FEEL IT SHOULD BE COVERED UNDER RECALL, MAKES A HORRENDOUS NOISE ON STARTUP EVERYTIME, AND ITS VERY EXPENSIVE TO FIX. THE ENGINE FEELS AS IF IT IS ABOUT TO FALL OUT ON STARTUP ITS THAT LOUD, SHAKES THE WHOLE TRUCK.

2013 F-150 XLT 4X4 ELECTRIC POWER STEERING COMPLETELY WENT OUT AT 43,000 MILES. THE TRUCK WOULD OUT OF NOWHERE, WHILE DRIVING, BE VERY DIFFICULT TO TURN AND ALMOST CAUSED A CRASH. IT STARTED SMALL, BUT WITHIN 2 WEEKS COMPLETELY WENT OUT.

WHILE DECELERATING TO MAKE A TURN, THE BRAKE PEDAL STARTED CHATTERING AND BRAKING EFFECTIVENESS DECREASED TO ALMOST ZERO. THE VEHICLE ULTIMATELY STOPPED BEYOND THE TURN. THIS WAS ON A PAVED DRY SURFACE WITH NORMAL BRAKING PRESSURE. IT NOW HAS HAPPENED AT LEAST TWICE.

WHILE DRIVING DOWN THE STREET IT DECELERATES AND SHIFT OUT OF GEAR BUT IF I TURN IT OFF TURN THE KEY OVER, MOVE THE SHIFT COLUMN FROM DRIVE TO FIRST ,BACK TO DRIVE AND IF IT STARTS PROPERLY IT RUNS FOR APPROXIMATELY 3 TO 4 MILES AND THEN IT KICKS BACK OUT TO GEAR ACTS LIKE THERE'S NO GAS UNTIL I RESTART THE VEHICLE AT ONE POINT IT SHIFTED INTO FIRST LOCKED UP MY REAR END OF MY VEHICLE AS I WAS GOING DOWN THE HIGHWAY ALMOST CAUSING ME TO WRECK FORTUNATELY NO ONE WAS BEHIND ME.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 FORD F-150. WHILE DRIVING 45 MPH, THE MASTER CYLINDER REAR CUP SEAL FRACTURED AND BRAKE FLUID LEAKED INTO THE BRAKE BOOSTER. THE FAILURE OCCURRED ON A CONSISTENT BASIS. THE BRAKE LIGHT ILLUMINATED UNTIL BRAKE FLUID WAS ADDED. THE FAILURE OCCURRED ON JULY 10 2017. AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC STATED THAT THE MASTER CYLINDER NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE FAILURE WAS IDENTICAL TO THE FAILURE LISTED IN NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 16V345000 (SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC); HOWEVER, THE VIN WAS NOT INCLUDED. THE MANUFACTURER ADVISED HIM TO CONTACT THE NHTSA HOTLINE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 57,193.

ON SATURDAY JUNE 10, 2017 I WAS OUT OF TOWN WITH FAMILY IN CARY, NC. WE WERE LEAVING THE HOTEL PARKING LOT THAT MORNING AND WHEN I STARTED THE TRUCK AND PUT TRUCK IN REVERSE THE BRAKES DID NOT WORK.. AFTER LOOKING, I SAW THERE WAS NO BRAKE FLUID. THERE WAS NO BRAKE FLUID ON THE GROUND SO I DIDN'T KNOW WHAT THE ISSUE COULD BE. I GOT MORE BRAKE FLUID THEN DROVE TO A MECHANIC. BY THE TIME I GOT TO THE MECHANIC (1 MILE DOWN THE ROAD) THE BRAKE FLUID WAS GONE AGAIN. AFTER THE MECHANIC LOOKED AT ISSUE, IT WAS DETERMINED THAT THE BRAKE BOOSTER FAILED. THEY FOUND THAT THERE WERE NO PARTS AND IT TOOK UNTIL TUESDAY JUNE 13, 2017 TO GET PART AND REPAIR. THINKING THERE MUST BE AN ISSUE SINCE NO PARTS WERE AVAILABLE. I FOUND THAT 126 COMPLAINTS WERE REGISTERED REGARDING THE BRAKE BOOSTER ON 2013 FORD F150'S. AFTER CALLING FORD IT WAS DETERMINED THAT MY 2013 FORD F150 WAS NOT ON THE LIST. MY FORD F150 HAD THE EXACT SAME MAJOR ISSUE THAT THE FORD F150'S THAT WERE RECALLED. THIS IS VERY DISTURBING THAT THE BRAKES WENT OUT, ESPECIALLY AFTER WE HAD JUST DROVE THROUGH THE WEST VIRGINIA MOUNTAINS. I HAVE TALKED TO FORD MULTIPLE TIMES AND THEY ARE NOT WILLING TO DO ANYTHING ABOUT THIS ISSUE. ONLY UNTIL THE PART IS PUT ON THE RECALL LIST FOR MY VIN# WILL FORD DO SOMETHING. I HAVE BEEN TOLD TO KEEP MY RECEIPTS JUST IN CASE IT IS PUT ON THE RECALL LIST. I FIND THIS VERY UPSETTING THAT THE EXACT SAME PART HAD BEEN RECALLED ON OTHER 2013 FORD F150, BUT MY VIN# WAS NOT ON THE LIST. I HAD THE EXACT SAME

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 FORD F-150. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 10 MPH, THE LOW OIL PRESSURE WARNING INDICATOR ILLUMINATED. SHORTLY AFTER, THE VEHICLE STALLED. THE CONTACT RESTARTED THE VEHICLE, BUT THE FAILURE RECURRED APPROXIMATELY FOUR MILES LATER. THE CONTACT TOOK THE VEHICLE TO THE D'ORAZIO FORD DEALER WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT A SWITCH ASSOCIATED WITH THE IGNITION FAILED AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE FAILURE RECURRED APPROXIMATELY FOUR TIMES WHILE DRIVING VARIOUS SPEEDS. THE VEHICLE HAD NOT BEEN DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED A SECOND TIME. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE VIN WAS UNKNOWN. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 85,000.

BRAKE MASTER CYLINDER FAILURE, CAUSING BRAKE FLUID LEAKAGE INTO THE BRAKE BOOSTER. INTERESTINGLY, THERE IS A RECALL FOR THIS EXACT ISSUE IN CERTAIN 2013-2014 F-150'S (SUBMISSION DATE : MAY 23, 2016 NHTSA RECALL NO. : 16V-345 MANUFACTURER RECALL NO. : 16S24). MY VIN HAPPENS TO NOT BE INCLUDED IN THE RECALL. IT LOOKS LIKE FORD MAY HAVE FORGOTTEN TO ADD SOME TRUCKS TO THE RECALL. IF YOU ASK ME, IT'S NO COINCIDENCE THAT MY TRUCK WAS PURCHASED WITHIN THE YEARS OF THE RECALL, AND HAD THE EXACT SAME FAILURE AS THE RECALL. UNFORTUNATELY, TOMORROW (JULY 11, 2017) I WILL PAY ~$1050 TO GET THIS FIXED, WHEN IT SHOULD HAVE BEEN INCLUDED IN THE RECALL.

I WAS LEAVING WORK, AS I DROVE OFF ONTO THE STREET IN ODESSA, TEXAS THE VEHICLE SEEMED NORMAL FOR 10 MINS. ALL OF SUDDEN THE FIRST BRAKE I TOOK THE BRAKE LIGHT CAME ON AT A STOP SIGN. I PULLED OVER BECAUSE MY BRAKE PEDAL SLID ALL THE WAY DOWN TO THE FLOOR, AS A RESULT OF THIS MY VEHICLE WAS UNABLE TO STOP. I GOT OFF THE TRUCK AND CHECKED THE BREAK FLUID RESERVOIR AND IT WAS EMPTY. I DROVE MY VEHICLE TO THE CLOSEST CONVENIENT STORE TO PURCHASE BRAKE FLUID. I BOUGHT TWO CONTAINERS AND POURED INTO THE RESERVOIR AND AS I DROVE OFF, THE VEHICLE SEEMED TO BE WORKING FOR A LITTLE WHILE AND THE LIGHT CAME ON AGAIN. I DROVE TO THE CLOSEST MECHANIC SHOP; I SPOKE THE MECHANIC AND EXPLAINED TO HIM WHAT THE PROBLEM WAS. HE CHECKED FOR LEAKS AND DID NOT FIND ANY HE THEN MADE A THOROUGH CHECK INTO THE BRAKE BOOSTER. HE FOUND THAT THE FLUID WAS ENTERING THE BRAKE BOOSTER. NOT A GOOD SIGN HE STATED. UPON ARRIVAL TO MY RESIDENCE, I LOOKED UP FORD MOTOR RECALLS AND I LEARNED THAT THESE 2013-2014 FORD F150 VEHICLES HAD RECALLS TO REPLACE BRAKE MASTER CYLINDERS DUE TO BRAKE FLUID LEAKING FROM THE BRAKE MASTER CYLINDER INTO THE BRAKE BOOSTER. THE FORD MOTOR COMPANY RECALL WAS ISSUED BACK IN MAY 25, 2016. HOWEVER, I HAVE YET TO RECEIVE A NOTICE.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 FORD F-150. WHILE DRIVING 8 MPH, THE VEHICLE STALLED WITHOUT WARNING IN THE MIDDLE OF AN INTERSECTION. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE FAILURE OCCURRED NUMEROUS TIMES. THE DEALER (TRUCK CITY OF BUDA, TEXAS) WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE, BUT COULD NOT DUPLICATE THE FAILURE. THE DEALER STATED THAT THERE WERE NO ERROR CODES TO HELP DIAGNOSE THE ISSUE. IN ADDITION, THE DEALER REQUESTED THAT THE CONTACT RECORD VIDEO FOOTAGE OF THE INCIDENT. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE ISSUE AND PROVIDED THE CONTACT WITH CASE NUMBER: CAS12626484. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 54,000.

WHILE DRIVING DOWN THE HIGHWAY, THE VEHICLE FLASHED SERVICE ADVANCE TRAC, DOWN HILL DESCENT CONTROL FAULT, TRAILER BRAKE MODULE FAIL AND A COUPLE MORE CODES. ALL ELECTONICS IN VEHICLE WENT BLANK, INCLUDING ALL CONTROLS/GAUGES. BEFORE DOING SO, LAST CODE READ, SHIFT TO PARK. ALMOST CAUSED ME TO HAVE AN ACCIDENT, BECAUSE THE POWER STEERING WENT OUT AND NEARLY PULLED ME INTO ANOTHER VEHICLE. THE ACCELERATION IS BAD TOO, FEELS LIKE IT IS NOT FIRING ALL CYLINDERS AGAIN. HAVE ALREADY TAKEN IN FOR A NUMBER OF ISSUES, INCLUDING CRANKSHAFT SENSOR ISSUES(WAS LOSING POWER TO DRIVELINE); BRAKES LOCKING UP (HAVE REPLACED THE ROTORS AND PADS SIX TIMES AND LAST TIME I REPLACED BOTH CALIBERS AS WELL; FRONT AXLES AND BEARINGS REPLACED. AS WELL AS, BLINKERS NO LONGER WORK. WHEN THE FIRST ISSUES AROSE, PROBLEMS HAVE CONTINUED SINCE, LIKE I SAID HAVE TAKEN IT IN AT LEAST 6 TIMES TO A DEALER AND ONCE TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC. AT FIRST THE PROBLEMS WERE COVERED BY WARRENTY, NOW THEY ARE NOT, THERE IS ONLY 99,000MILES ON THE TRUCK AND HAS BEEN IN SHOP AT LEAST 6 TIMES AND IS ONLY 4 YRS OLD. NOT SURE WHAT TO DO, AS THE PROBLEMS RESEMBLE RECALL ISSUES, BUT DEALERSHIP SAYS THEY AREN'T PART OF ANY RECALLS. CONCERNED FOR MY SAFETY ON THE ROAD. THE TRUCK IS NOW NOT DRIVEABLE!!!

DRIVING DOWN FREEWAY AT 65 TRUCK SHIFT FROM 6 GEAR TO 1ST LOCKING UP TIRES THEN BACK TO 6 GEAR DID THIS SEVERAL TIMES THIS IS NOT SAFE THEN ENGINE LOST POWER AND WRENCH LIGHT SHOWED UP TURN KEY OFF AND IT RESTARTED

PUT THE TRUCK IN DRIVE AND THE BRAKE BOOSTER FAILED.

NOW THE SECOND TIME IN AND THE TRUCK DOESN'T EVEN HAVE 50K MILES ON IT. TRUCK WOULD TURN OVER BUT NOT START AND LEFT MY WIFE AND KIDS STRANDED IN A PARKING LOT WHERE I HAD TO GO GET THEM. IT'S HOT AS HECK IN JUNE/JULY IN TEXAS SO I KNOW IT ISN'T A COLD WEATHER START THING. RESEARCHING ONLINE WE ARE NOT THE ONLY ONES WITH THIS PROBLEM. EVENTUALLY LEAVING IT THERE AND MESSING WITH THE KEY AND IGNITION SWITCH I'M ASSUMING IT STARTED AFTER A FEW HOURS. THE TRUCK WAS NOT OVER HEATED.

I AM EXPERIENCING THE EXACT SAME PROBLEM WITH MY 2013 FORD F-150 XLT AS THOSE THAT HAVE BEEN RECALLED IN THE 2011 AND 2012 MODELS. MY TRUCK WAS ALSO BUILT IN DEARBORN, MICHIGAN AND HAS THE 6R80 TRANSMISSION. I TOOK MY TRUCK INTO THE DEALERSHIP THIS WEEK TO FIND THAT THE LEAD FRAME NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE DEALER IS REPLACING THE POWERTRAIN CONTROL MODULE SOFTWARE AND THE LEAD FRAME AT MY COST OF $1,362 . THE PROBLEM: A PROBLEM WITH THE OUTPUT SPEED SENSOR ON THE VEHICLE'S TRANSMISSION LEAD FRAME COULD CAUSE THE TRANSMISSION CONTROLS TO FORCE A TEMPORARY DOWNSHIFT INTO 1ST GEAR. DEPENDING ON THE SPEED OF THE VEHICLE AT THE TIME OF THE DOWNSHIFT, THE DRIVER COULD EXPERIENCE AN ABRUPT SPEED REDUCTION THAT COULD CAUSE THE REAR TIRES TO SLIDE OR LOCK UP, RESULTING IN LOSS OF VEHICLE CONTROL AND INCREASING THE RISK OF A CRASH. EARLIER THIS WEEK ON MULTIPLE OCCASIONS, MY TRUCK WILL NOT SHIFT OUT OF FIRST GEAR AFTER COMING TO A STOP. I WAS NEARLY INVOLVED IN AN ACCIDENT DUE TO THIS PROBLEM WHEN I WAS UNABLE TO ACCELERATE FROM A STOP LIGHT AND THERE WAS NO PLACE FOR ME TO PULL OVER. THE PROBLEM ONLY CORRECTS ITSELF WHEN I SHUT THE ENGINE OFF AND RESTART IT.

VEHICLE WENT INTO "LIMP MODE" WHILE TRAVELING AT HIGH SPEED CREATING A VERY DANGEROUS SITUATION. THIS OCCURRED 2 MORE TIMES BEFORE I COULD GET AN APPOINTMENT AT THE DEALER. THE DEALER COULD NOTE FIND ANY CODES BUT DECIDED MY ELECTRONIC THROTTLE BODY WAS DEFECTIVE AND NOT COVERED UNDER MY POWER TRAIN WARRANTY. FORD CUSTOMER SERVICE EXTENDED WARRANTIES FOR OTHER VEHICLES WITH THE SAME PART BUT WILL NOT INCLUDE MY VEHICLE.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 FORD F-150. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE POWER STEERING FAILED TO FUNCTION AND THE EPS WARNING INDICATOR FLASHED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED BY A DEALER, BUT IT WAS INSPECTED BY AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 73,000.

STUMBLE/MISFIRE ON ACCELERATION FROM HIGHWAY CRUISE UP HILL CONDITIONS OR HARD ACELARECION EQPED WITH 3.5L ECOBOOST AND ENGINE LIGHT FLASHES . VERY DANGEROUS IN THE HIGHWAY BECOUSE MY THE TRUCK ENGINE STOPS WORKING AND YOU HAVE TO PULLOVER RIGHT AWAY IF YOU LUKY .

BRAKES WENT COMPLETELY OUT WHILE DRIVING ON A MAJOR HIGHWAY, HAD TO USE EMERGENCY BRAKE TO FINALLY STOP TRUCK. FOUND OUT THERE IS A RECALL FOR 2013-2014 FORD F-150 FOR THIS PROBLEM, HOWEVER, FORD DID TAKE A REPORT TODAY, BUT, THEY SAID THIS TRUCK WAS NOT UNDER THE RECALL BECAUSE IT WAS MADE ON 9-19-2012 AND THE ONES UNDER THE RECALL #16V345000 WERE BUILT IN 2013. FUNNY THAT THIS IS THE EXACT PROBLEM YET NOT CONSIDERED PART OF THIS RECALL. THE REPAIR INVOLVED REPLACING THE MASTER BRAKE CYLINDER AND THE BRAKE BOOSTER WHICH COST $1193.25. WE WERE LUCKY NO ONE WAS INJURED OR WORSE. JUST HOPE THEY DO A VERY GOOD INVESTIGATION AND HOPE THIS DOES NOT HAPPEN TO ANYONE ELSE WHO'S VEHICLE WAS BUILT IN 2012. THE OTHER NOTE IS, THE OIL DID NOT LEAK OUT ONTO THE GROUND, SO NO VISIBLE PROBLEM WAS SEEN, THE OIL WENT INTO THE BOOSTER. I TRULY BELIEVE THAT THIS VEHICLE SHOULD BE COVERED UNDER RECALL # 16V345000. - SHARON H., HOMOSASSA, US

SUDDEN FAILURE OF BRAKE MASTER CYLINDER WITHOUT WARNING DURING NORMAL DRIVING IN THE CITY. THIS BRAKE FAILURE CAUSED ME TO DRIVE OFF THE ROAD IN ORDER TO AVOID COLLIDING WITH STOPPED VEHICLES. THIS IS THE EXACT ISSUE THAT IS INCLUDED IN RECALL # 16S24, HOWEVER THIS RECALL DOES NOT CURRENTLY INCLUDE MY VEHICLE. THE BRAKE MASTER CYLINDER SUDDENLY LEAKED ALL FLUID INTO THE BRAKE BOOSTER AS DESCRIBED IN RECALL # 16S24 CAUSING THE BRAKES TO STOP WORKING COMPLETELY, EVEN WITH THE PEDAL COMPLETELY DEPRESSED. I AM CONFIDENT THE SAME DEFECTIVE PART/SEAL/ASSEMBLY THAT IS INCLUDED IN THE RECALLED VEHICLES WAS INSTALLED ON MY TRUCK, CAUSING THE SAME ISSUE WHEN THE PART FAILED. FORD HAS DENIED HELPING ME WITH THIS ISSUE, AND I HAVE A BILL FROM DOWNTOWN FORD IN SACRAMENTO, CA IN THE AMOUNT OF $1009.35 FOR THE REPAIRS RELATED TO THIS DEFECTIVE PART.

HESITATION STUMBLES ERRATIC ACCELERATION. NOTHING HAPPENS WHEN STEPPING ON ACCELERATOR THEN SUDDENLY TAKES OFF.

3.5 ECO-BOOST ENGINE ON TWO OCCASIONS PUT ME IN AN UNSAFE CONDITION BY CAUSING A LOSS OF THROTTLE RESPONSE. EACH TIME THIS HAPPENED A "WRENCH ICON" FLASHED WITH A LOSS OF POWER. NO THROTTLE RESPONSE UNTIL THE ENGINE WAS SHUT DOWN AND RESTARTED. WHEN THESE INCIDENTS HAPPENED I WAS TOWING A TRAILER AT HIGHWAY SPEED AND HAD A DIFFICULT TIME PULLING OUT OF TRAFFIC ONTO THE SHOULDER. EACH TIME THIS HAPPENED A TROUBLE CODE OF P2112 WAS SET AND THE CEL CAME ON. THE THROTTLE BODY HAD TO BE REPLACED EACH TIME. THE FIRST TIME THIS HAPPENED I HAD 23131 MILES AND FORD REPLACED THE PART UNDER WARRANTY, THE SECOND OCCURRENCE WAS AT 45558 MILES AND I HAD TO COVER THE COST FOR REPLACEMENT. WITH THE LOSS OF POWER AT HIGHWAY SPEED THIS COULD LEAD TO A SERIOUS ACCIDENT IN NOT BEING ABLE TO MOVE OUT OF THE WAY OF TRAFFIC AT A CRITICAL MOMENT. THE FORD SERVICE MANAGERS CAN'T GIVE ME A REASON WHY THIS PART IS FAILING.

LEAKING MASTER CYLINDER AND POWER BOOSTER. DEALER SAYS IT'S NOT ON RECALL.

MADE A TURN AT AN INTERSECTION WITH MY KIDS AND MY F150 ECOBOOST LOST POWER. I THOUGHT WE WERE GONNA GET HIT. I HAVE HAD MY 2013 F150 INTO THE LOCAL FORD DEALERSHIP 3 TIMES FOR THIS ISSUE. THEY TELL ME TO DRIVE IT THEY ARE WAITING FOR A NEW COMPUTER PROGRAM FROM FORD. ENGINE LITE HAS BEEN ON FOR A MONTH OR MORE. DEALERSHIP KEEPS GIVING IT BACK. WAITING ON PROGRAM. VEHICLE I FEEL IS NOT SAFE.

COMPLETE FAILURE OF POWER STEERING. MULTIPLE FAULT LIGHTS. HILL DECENT FAULT, ADVANCED TRACK SERVICE FAULT, STEERING ASSIST FAULT, AND A COUPLE MORE. WHOLE DRIVING, I WENT YOU MAKE A LEFT TURN. TURNED THE WHEEL ABOUT 3/4 AROUND AND IT "POPPED" BACK TO THE RIGHT AND THEN RELEASED ALLOWING ME TO MAKE THE TURN. ONCE I STOPPED THE TRUCK AND TURNED IT OFF, I STARTED THE TRUCK AGAIN AND WENT TO TURN THE WHEEL BUT IT WOULD ONLY SQUEAL WHEN I TRIED TO TURN THE WHEEL. WOULD NOT ALLOW ME TO TURN AT ALL. TURNED THE TRUCK OFF AGAIN AND RESTARTED IT. NO POWER STEERING AT ALL NOW. DEALER SAYS PROBABLY AROUND $2000 TO FIX. VERY DANGEROUS.

"FUEL FILL INLET" MY TRUCK RECENTLY DISPLAYED A WARNING THAT SAYS "CHECK FUEL FILL INLET". I'VE SEARCHED THE INTERNET AND MANY FORD OWNERS HAVE EXPERIENCE THIS ISSUE ACROSS SEVERAL MODELS. I'VE CHECKED THE INLET AND IT IS CLOSED AS IT SHOULD BE, I'VE CLEANED THE AREA IN AND AROUND WHERE THE FUEL NOZEL GOES AND THERE IS NO DEBRIS. THIS WARNING CAUSES THE "CHECK ENGINE" LIGHT TO COME ON AND THUS GENERATES AN "EVAPORATIVE EMISSIONS" CODE. THE " CHECK FUEL FILL INLET" WARNING INTERMITTENTLY DOESN'T COME ON AND THUS THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT GOES OFF AND I'M ABLE TO USE MY REMOTE START. WHEN IT COMES ON I AM NOT ABLE T REMOTE START MY VEHICLE. MY VEHICLE WAS STATIONARY, PARKED IN FRONT OF MY HOUSE. I GOT IN TO START IT AND THE LIGHT JUST CAME ON. IT IS NOT AN ISSUE THAT FORD IS UNAWARE OF AND FORD OWNERS HAVE HAD THIS ISSUE FOR NEARLY 10 YEARS.

BATTERY DRAINS DOWN WHEN OFF. THIS HAS HAPPENED MULTIPLE TIMES. SOMETIMES OVER NIGHT, SOMETIMES OVER 2-3 DAYS. CHANGED BATTERY AND IT DRAINS DOWN.

THE TRUCK WAS PARKED, WHEN I STARTED THE TRUCK THE LOW BRAKE FLUID LIGHT CAME ON AND THE PADDLE WENT TO THE FLOOR. ADDED BRAKE FLUID AND THE SAME RESULT, LOW BRAKE FLUID LIGHT CAME BACK ON AND THE PEDAL WENT TO THE FLOOR. THERE WERE NO SIGNS OF FLUID LEAK UNDER THE TRUCK. HAD IT TOWED TO FORD DEALER. THEY STATED I NEEDED MASTER CYLINDER AND BRAKE BOOSTER REPLACED.

AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION UNEXPECTEDLY DOWNSHIFTED TO FIRST GEAR WHILE TRAVELING DOWN THE HIGHWAY AT 50 MPH SUDDENLY WITHOUT WARNING CAUSING THE REAR TIRES TO SLIDE AND LOCK, AND THE CONTROL PANEL INSIDE THE VEHICLE IS BLINKED OUT NOT SHOWING ANYTHING.

DROVE THE TRUCK 270 MILES AT INTERSTATE SPEED ON I-95 TO A GRAND DAUGHTERS GRADUATION IN PROVIDENCE RI. AT THAT LOCATION WHILE DRIVING AT CITY SPEEDS(35 MPH) WARNING CAME ON "BRAKE FLUID LOW" I CHECKED THE BRAKE FLUID LEVEL AND IT WAS LOW BUT THERE WAS STILL AN INCH OF FLUID IN THE RESERVOIR, ON THE 2 MILE TRIP BACK TO THE LOCATION WE WERE STAYING, DRIVING AT ABOUT 35 MPH, THE BRAKE PEDAL WENT TO THE FLOOR AND I LOST ALL BREAK POWER. THE RESERVOIR WAS COMPLETELY EMPTY, THERE WAS NO SIGN OF ANY BREAK FLUID OIL UNDER THE TRUCK OR ON THE UNDER CARRIAGE. HAD THE VEHICLE TOWED TO A REPAIR SHOP WHERE THE MECHANICS DIAGNOSIS WAS A FAILED MASTER BRAKE CYLINDER WHERE ALL THE BRAKE FLUID WAS SUCKED INTO THE BRAKE BOOSTER. HAD TO BOOK AN EXTRA NIGHT IN PROVIDENCE WHILE WAITING FOR THE NEW MASTER CYLINDER TO ARRIVE. AFTER REPLACEMENT OF THE MASTER CYLINDER THE DRIVE, 270 MILES HOME WAS WITHOUT INCIDENT.

2013 FORD F-150. CONSUMER WRITES IN REGARDS TO BRAKE FLUID LEAKS FROM BRAKE MASTER CYLINDER INTO BRAKE BOOSTER AND CAUSED BRAKE FAILURE. *SMD THE CONSUMER STATED THE VEHICLE EXPERIENCED THE SAME FAILURE AS DESCRIBED IN SAFETY RECALL FORE CERTAIN FORD F150 BREAKS. THE CONSUMER REQUESTED TO BE INCLUDED IN THE RECALL AND THAT SHE AND HER WARRANTY COMPANY SHOULD REIMBURSED FOR THE REPAIRS. THE BREAK MASTER CYLINDER WAS REPLACED. *JS

BRAKE FLUID LEAK FROM THE BRAKE MASTER CYLINDER INTO THE BRAKE BOOSTER

I EXCELERATED FROM A STOP, SUDDENLY MY CHECK ENGINE LIGHT STARTED TO FLASH AND I STARTED TO LOSE POWER AND ACCELERATION. MY VEHICLE THEN BEGAN TO SHUDDER, I LET OFF THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL AND MOVED TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD. AFTER ABOUT A MINUTE THE ENGINE LIGHT TURNED ITSELF OFF AND THE FULL POWER CAME BACK TO THE TRUCK.

I WAS DRIVING ON THE FREEWAY BETWEEN THE SPEEDS OF 60 AND 65MPH AND MY 2013 F150 WITH A 6R80 TRANSMISSION SUDDENLY DOWNSHIFTED INTO WHAT I BELIEVE WAS 1ST GEAR. I CAME VERY CLOSE TO CRASHING AND COMPLETELY LOSING CONTROL BECAUSE THE REAR WHEELS BREIFLY SKIDDED ON THE FREEWAY SURFACE AND BECAUSE OF THE QUICK REDUCTION OF SPEED. IT WAS VIOLENT BECAUSE I WASNT EXPECTING IT. I AM GOING TO SLOWLY LIMP IT TO A FORD DEALER IN MESA ARIZONA TOMORROW MORNING. THEY SHOULD NOT CHARGE ME FOR THIS COMPONANT FLAW. I DO NOT FEEL SAFE DRIVING MY TRUCK.

JUMPS FROM FIRST GEAR TO FIFTH WHILE NOT DOING 5 MPH. TRAVELING DOWN HIGHWAY SHIFTS FROM 6 GEAR TO THIRD AND SPEED ODOMOTOR GOES TO 0, WRENCH SIGH APPEARS ON CLUSTER AND DRIVER SEAT BELT SHOW NOT INGAGED

LOST ALL ABILITY TO BRAKE WHILE DRIVING 50 MPH ON STATE HIGHWAY. DUE TO FORTUNATE CIRCUMSTANCES AND FAVORABLE TRAFFIC CONDITIONS, NO INJURIES WERE SUFFERED. FORD DEALER DIAGNOSED THE PROBLEM AS A MASTER CYLINDER LEAK THAT IS SIMILAR TO A CURRENT RECALL FOR THIS YEAR, MAKE, AND MODEL. DESPITE HAVING AN IDENTICAL MASTER CYLINDER FAILURE OF AN ACTIVE RECALL, MY VIN NUMBER WAS NOT LISTED ON THE FORD RECALLS LIST FOR THIS ISSUE.

WHEN DRIVING THE TRUCK RANDOMLY GOES INTO 1ST GEAR. THE PROBLEM IS ESCALATING. BEFORE IT DID IT ONCE OR TWICE AND WHEN YOU WOULD HAVE IT LOOKED AT YOU COULDN'T DUPLICATE IT.

AS I AM DRIVING THE 2013 FORD F-150 RAPTOR 6.2L THE GEARS SEEM TO BE OFF, IF I AM DRIVING ONLY 30MPH THE GEAR IS AT 6. ALSO THE MORE DANGEROUS AND SCARY THING IS THAT IT SHIFTS DOWN WITHOUT ANY WARNING, I WAS TRAVELING ABOUT 35MPH AND THE GEAR SEEM TO SHIFT DOWN TO 1 LOCKING MY REAR TIRES AND MAKING ME SKID ALMOST CAUSING THE VEHICLE BEHIND ME TO RUN INTO ME. THE TIRES LOCKED ALMOST AS IF I PUT THE BRAKES ON. I'M GLAD I WAS ONLY GOING 35MPH BUT WHAT IF I'M GOING 80, THIS WOULD BE A MORE DANGEROUS AND SCARY SCENARIO. IT ALSO HAPPENED WHEN I TURNED ON TO A STREET AND AS I STARTED TO ACCELERATE IT DROPPED MY GEAR TO 1, LOCKED MY WHEELS AND ACTED LIKE IT DIDN'T WANT TO SHIFT OR ACCELERATE , I PULLED OFF TO THE SIDE OF ROAD, I SAT THERE FOR A FEW MINUTES WONDERING WHAT HAPPENED AND WENT ON MY WAY NERVOUS IF IT WILL HAPPEN AGAIN, WHICH IT DIDN'T AND MADE IT HOME. NEXT DAY I TOOK TO FORD AND THEY SAID THEY CANT DUPLICATE THE ISSUE SO THERE IS NOTHING WE CAN DO. THIS IS SCARY , I DON'T FELL SAFE WITH ME AND MY SON IN THIS VEHICLE. WHAT COULD BE CAUSING THIS DANGEROUS SITUATION? WHAT IS MY NEXT OPPOSITION TO GET THIS FIXED. THANK YOU

WHEN DRIVING IN MOTION, MY VEHICLE DOWNSHIFTED AUTOMATICALLY LOCKING UP THE BRAKES. THE SPEEDOMETER STOPPED WORKING AND THE AIRBAG BEGAN TO READ INOPERABLE VIA THE DISPLAY. IN ANOTHER SITUATION (WHICH OCCURRED SEVERAL TIMES) WHEN STARTING FROM A STATIONARY POSITION MY VEHICLE FAILED TO SHIFT OUT OF 1ST GEAR. I TOOK THE VEHICLE TO BE SERVICED BY FORD, THEY ADVISED THE LEAD FRAME ON THE TRANSMISSION WAS BAD AND THEY REPLACED IT. UPON FURTHER RESEARCH, I FOUND THAT 10-12 FORD F-150'S FROM THE KANSAS CITY PLANT HAD THIS ITEM RECALLED.

I HAD A HEAVY FROST IN MY AREA, SO WHILE DRIVING TO WORK, I TURNED ON THE REAR VIEW WINDOW DEFROST AND AFTER ABOUT 5 MINUTES I HEARD WHAT SOUNDED LIKE A GUNSHOT. I WAS ON AN INTERSTATE SO I WASN'T SURE WHAT HAD HAPPENED. AFTER LOOKING AROUND, I REALIZED MY REAR WINDOW HAD SHATTERED. I INSPECTED THE WINDOW, THINKING THAT MAYBE IT WAS HIT BUT THE GLASS WAS INTACT AND THERE WAS NO MARKS OR APPEARANCE OF DAMAGE FROM OUTSIDE. I WENT ONLINE AND SEARCHED FOR THIS AND FOUND IT TO BE A COMMON ISSUE. I SPOKE TO MY FORD DEALERSHIP SERVICE MANAGER AND HE STATED THAT THEY HAD THREE BREAK THE SAME DAY IN THE SAME MANNER. THIS IS DANGEROUS. MY KIDS CAR SEATS ARE RIGHT BY THIS WINDOW. IF THEY WERE IN THEM, THEY WOULD HAVE HAD SMALL GLASS SPECKS ALL OVER THEM. I BELIEVE THIS IS NEGLIGENCE ON THE PART OF FORD. I HAD TWO GLASS COMPANIES BOTH TELL ME THAT THIS IS A PROBLEM. THEY WOULD HAVE EASILY TAKEN MY MONEY BUT THEY KNEW IT WASN'T RIGHT. IF NOT A RECALL, FORD SHOULD PUT OUT A TECHNICAL SERVICE BULLETIN ON THIS AND REPLACE THEM AS THEY BREAK.

WHILE DRIVING THE VEHICLE AT NORMAL SPEEDS & OPERATING THE AIR CONDITIONER BLOWER MOTOR ON LOW SPEED, THE DRIVER OF THE VEHICLE NOTICED SMOKE COMING FROM THE BELOW THE DASH BOARD ON THE PASSENGER SIDE OF THE VEHICLE. AS THE SMOKE PROGRESSED, THE DRIVER SOON OBSERVED FLAMES AND MELTING PLASTIC DRIPPING OFF OF THE HVAC BOX. THE DRIVER IMMEDIATELY PULLED OVER, OPENED THE [PASSENGER DOOR AND EXTINGUISHED THE FLAMES WITH A 10 BAC FIRE EXTINGUISHER. WHEN THE VEHICLE WAS BROUGHT INTO THE MESA COUNTY FLEET REPAIR FACILITY, WE NOTICED THE HEAT SOURCE ORIGINATED FROM THE BLOWER MOTOR AND RESISTOR AREA OF THE HVAC BOX. THE ELECTRICAL WIRING HAS MELTED INSULATION AND NO FUSES APPEAR TO HAVE BURNED.

MY LOCAL FORD DEALERSHIP IS CHARGING ME $2000 FOR A STEERING GEAR THAT THE INTERNAL MODULE WENT BAD. FROM MY RESEARCH, THIS IS A VERY COMMON ISSUE WITH THE 2013 MODEL AND IS A RECALL ON THE 2014 MODEL. ITS AN INCREDIBLY DANGEROUS SITUATION WHEN IT HAPPENS. YOU COMPLETELY LOOSE POWER STEERING AND GET 3 SEPARATE WARNINGS ON THE DASH. I CAME WITHIN INCHES OF HITTING ANOTHER VEHICLE IN A PARKING LOT YESTERDAY. PROBLEM IS, ITS SPORADIC, YOU NEVER KNOW WHEN ITS GOING TO HAPPEN. I CALLED FORD AND THEY, BASICALLY, TOLD ME ITS NOT A RECALL BECAUSE THERE WASN'T SIGNIFICANT "INJURY OR LOSS OF LIFE" FROM THIS ISSUE....BUT, I GUESS THERE WAS ON THE 2014 AND UP MODELS... THIS IS OUTRAGEOUS!! THIS NEEDS TO BECOME A RECALL IMMEDIATELY! HOPE YOU GUYS CAN LOOK INTO THIS AND, HOPEFULLY, SAVE THE LIVES THAT FORD IS NEEDING IN ORDER TO FIX THIS ISSUE. [XXX] INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6).'*JB

MOTOR WARNING LIGHT LIT UP AND STAYED ON. WENT TO AN AUTO ZONE AND THEIR COMPUTER SHOWED FUEL VAPOR LEAK. I WAS FIRST TOLD THE GAS CAP MAY BE LETTING OUT FUMES BUT I HAVE THE CAPLESS GAS INPUT. THE TRUCK DOESN'T ACT ANY DIFFERENT BUT THE WARNING LIGHT WAS A CONCERN TO ME.

STARTER SYSTEM FAULT WAS WORKING VERY NICE AND STOP AFTER, CON YOU HELP ME FIX IT PLEASE, THANK YOU

WHILE ACCELERATING, THE VEHICLE HAS SUDDENLY DROPPED DOWN TO A LOWER GEAR, AND FLASHED A WRENCH SYMBOL ON THE DASHBOARD. WHEN THIS OCCURS, ALL DASHBOARD INDICATORS ZERO OUT AND SPEED DROPS DRASTICALLY. THIS HAS OCCURED ON BOTH A CITY STREET AND ON THE HIGHWAY. THE TIME IT OCCURED ONE THE HIGHWAY, I NEARLY LOST CONTROL OF THE VEHICLE. AFTER THE SECOND TIME THE ISSUE OCCURRED, I TOOK THE VEHICLE TO A DEALERSHIP. THEY INSPECTED AND DISCOVERED DTC CODE P0722 AND DIAGNOSED THAT IT WAS DUE TO A FAULTY LEAD CONNECTOR. MY OWN RESEARCH REVEALED A RECALL FOR THE 2011 AND 2012 MODEL YEAR F150S TO FIX THE EXACT SAME PROBLEM, A FAULTY SPEED SENSOR. NOW I'M PAYING $650 FOR SOMETHING THAT'S BEEN A PROBLEM WITH OTHER MODEL YEARS.

FAILURE OF THE LEAD FRAME IN THE 6 SPEED TRANSMISSION. FORD RECALLED A NUMBER OF 2011 AND 2012 F150'S FOR THIS PROBLEM. THE LEAD FRAME FAILURE, WHICH HOUSES THE SPEED SENSOR, CAUSES THE VEHICLE TO ATTEMPT TO DOWNSHIFT INTO 1ST GEAR AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS. MINE IS A 2013 F150 WITH THE SAME PROBLEM. THE FIRST TWO TIMES OCCURRED AT HIGHWAY SPEED, ~50MPH, AND CAUSED A SUDDEN/TEMPORARY BOG AND DECELERATION. THE THIRD TIME THE VEHICLE DOWNSHIFTED INTO FIRST GEAR FROM APPROXIMATELY 50MPH, CAUSING THE REAR WHEELS TO LOCK UP AND CREATE A SHORT SKID, BEFORE SHIFTING BACK INTO A HIGHER GEAR. THE VEHICLE BEHIND ME NEARLY CRASHED INTO ME BECAUSE OF THE SUDDEN DECELERATION WITHOUT WARNING. THIS WAS ON A STRAIGHT, LEVEL HIGHWAY WHILE TRAVELING AT A CONSTANT SPEED. THE THREE INCIDENTS OCCURRED SEVERAL WEEKS APART IN SIMILAR CONDITIONS, AND THE FIRST TWO WERE NOT SEVERE ENOUGH FOR ME TO IMMEDIATELY TAKE IT FOR SERVICE. I HAD THE PART REPLACED AT $727 COST TO ME. THE VEHICLE HAS 66,000 MILES AND WAS JUST OUT OF WARRANTY. I ASKED FORD ABOUT COVERING THE COST, SINCE THE RECALLED '11 AND '12 MODELS WERE COVERED FOR ALL REPAIR COSTS BEYOND 100,000 MILES. I WAS INFORMED SINCE MY VEHICLE WAS NOT PART OF THE RECALL, EVEN THOUGH IT HAD THE EXACT SAME PROBLEM AND TRANSMISSION, FORD WOULD NOT COVER THE REPAIR. THIS IS A DANGEROUS CONDITION KNOWN TO FORD. MANY OWNERS MAY FOREGO REPAIRS DUE TO THE COST, PARTICULARLY WHEN THE INITIAL SIGNS OF A PROBLEM ARE NOT SEVERE, UNTIL THEY HAVE A FULL ON LOCKUP OF THE REA

BRAKES FAILED. WAS DRIVING TO WORK WHEN I NEED TO STOP FOR RED LIGHT AND PEDAL WENT TO THE FLOOR AND I ALMOST WENT THRU THE INTERSECTION ON HIGHWAY ROUTE 100. THIS WAS DO TO THE MASTER CYLINDER AND BRAKE BOOSTER FRAILER. I KNOW THERE IS A RECALL FOR THIS BUT MY MODEL AND VIN # IS NOT INCLUDED. IT HAS SINCE BEEN REPAIRED BY THE DEALER AT A COST TO ME AND NOT UNDER ANY RECALL LIKE THE OTHER MODELS

THE 'CHECK FUEL INLET' WARNING RANDOMLY COMES ON ALTHOUGH NO DEBRIS IS IN THE INLET AND THE FUEL DOOR SPRING AND GASKET ARE IN GOOD WORKING CONDITION. THE HAPPENS RANDOMLY WHEN I TURN THE VEHICLE ON BUT IS OCCURRING MORE AND MORE FREQUENTLY.

I HAD MY REAR DEFROST ON FOR ABOUT 5 MINUTES ON MY WAY TO WORK. I HEARD A LOUD POP AND STOPPED TO SEE WHAT HAPPEN. I NOTICED THE DRIVER SIDE REAR WINDOW WAS SHATTERED. I TOOK IT TO A FORD DEALERSHIP AND THEY WHERE NO HELP. I PAID OUT OF POCKET TO GET IT FIXED AS I HAVE THREE SMALL KIDS WHO RIDE IN THE BACK. THE GLASS PLACE THAT FIXED IT TOLD BE THAT THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM THAT FORD WILL NOT TAKE CARE OF. MY TRUCK IS A 2013 WITH 56,000 MILES ON IT.
