2014 Ford F-150 complaints

When driving on the highway going about 50 mph, my speedometer dropped to zero, back up to 35, back to 10, then back to 50 and the truck violently downshifted into 2nd gear, back to 4th, back to 2nd and then back to 5th. It happed again this morning going about 30 mph. It dropped to about 15, back to 25, down to 15, hard shift and the back to 35mph. I have a short video of it happening but can't attach.

On 6-20-2021 the brakes failed on my 2014 Ford F150 3.5 V6 Ecoboost engine almost causing an accident. I found two recall notices but my VIN number was not listed. I took the vehicle to Ford in Livermore, CA and had it repaired. I then contacted Ford and I have a case number. I then went through all my maintenance history and found that there was actually a recall in 2017 with my VIN number. Apparently I did take the vehicle in and it was repaired. The recall was then deleted on my truck because it was repaired. Now in 2021 the same problem happened again. A master cylinder is a pretty simple part and should not fail this often. I will follow up on this with Ford.....

The contact owns a 2014 Ford F-150. The contact stated that the brakes failed. When the contact attempted to move the vehicle out of the park position the brake pedal failed to engage, the brake pedal became hard to move. The contact stated that the vehicle had to be moved by reversing the vehicle. The vehicle was towed to the dealer. The dealer performed a diagnostic that located the failure code at the brake booster and the master cylinder. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer advised that the vehicle was not included in NHTSA Campaign Number: 20v332000 (service brakes hydraulic). The failure mileage was 83,000.

There are two safety recalls on 2014 Ford F150 brake master cylinder failures. My VIN is not on the recall list but I have the exact same problem as they have. My brakes failed and I almost ran into a cross street with traffic. I have the vehicle in the shop now and they say if I am not on their recall list they can not help. My vehicle is the same year, same model, same engine etc. so I am confused. This is definetely a safety concern. Will be interesting how many other vehicles like mine have the same problem.o

While driving on the freeway my 2014 ford f150 suddenly downshifted from 6th gear to 1st gear causing my rear wheels to lock up and having the steering wheel jerk to the left. the car behind me had to swerve to avoid hitting me from behind since the trucks wheels locked up with no brake lights. this has been the 8th time this has happened. each time i take it to ford for them to check it out they tell me they can not duplicate the issue. the wrench light comes on and it throws codes and ford will do nothing to fix it.

Usually on a daily basis and with no correlation to current speed, constant speed, acceleration, decelleration, road surface (highway, city or country) or any other symptoms: suddenly the vehicle bucks violently (feels like it shifts to first gear) while the speedometer either stutters momentafily or drops to 0 MPH. The Tach and other instrument seem to work OK, except that the SEAT BELTWARNING light comes ON (no warning bell, just the instrument panel light) and the display loses all mileage-relayed information (e.g., trip A and B indicators show dashes instead of miles, etc), On occasion, a wrench icon appears on the window that normally shows current mileage. I have researched these symptoms and discovered identical descriptions reported for the F150 which resulted in a recall of something like 20,000 f150's up to year 2013. It looks like the recall problem extends to my 2014 F150 and I would like to know the basis for my vehicle being excluded when it clearly has the same symptoms. I am planning a trip to Vancouver, BC and Colorado, USA to have my vehicle repaired, but the Service Shop advises that the repair parts are not available nationwide because of the above-mentioned recall. As I tow a 5000+ lbs trailer, it is clear that the combined vehicle + trailer combo cannot safely operate with this defect in place.

On several occasions while driving at 50+ mph my truck suddenly downshifts from 6th gear to 1st gear causing the rear wheels to lock up and skid. i have taken the vehicle to the dealership and they refuse to do anything because they can not duplicate the issue. this has happened several times the last time was on the freeway causing me to shoot over 2 lanes of traffic almost causing an accident. the ford dealership and the extended warranty company ameriplus both refuse to help because they both say that they can not duplicate the problem but the vehicle comes up with dtc codes p0731 and p0722

Exhaust manifolds are warping causing a severe exhaust leak at around 45K miles. Vehicle sounds like a bird chirping or wild animal screaming when accelerating.This repair is quite costly and requires several parts and labor hours. No vehicle with this low miles should require such a costly repair so early. Ford needs to make it right with all owners of these vehicle's by recalling and fixing the issue with the engine exhaust manifolds warping. I was quoted $1,700 per manifold x2 to get the leaks fixed and my truck safely running down the road again without making embarrassing noises. Anyone who has had to make this repair should be fully reimbursed for the parts and labor by Ford. When they make the repair they replace the failed parts with the exact same parts the truck come with so until they are forced to come up with a solution all us unfortunate 3.5L ecoboost owners will be replacing these costly exhaust manifolds. Thank you for your time. Nathan

The contact owns a 2014 Ford F-150. The contact stated while driving at various speeds, the vehicle downshifted with the service engine warning light illuminated on the instrument panel. The contact took the vehicle to an independent mechanic who was unable to diagnose the failure. The mechanic performed a fluid and maintenance checkup however, the failure returned soon after the repair. The manufacturer was notified of the failure and a case was filed. The contact was also informed that there were no recalls on the vehicle however, he may be entitled to a reimbursement if a recall were to be placed on the vehicle. The vehicle was not repaired. The failure mileage was 61,845.

While driving at highway speeds my truck suddenly down shifts from gear 6 to 1. while downshifting the wheels lock up causing them to skid and as a result the steering wheel pulls left. i have almost crashed 2 times. it has happened several times. i see that the same issues were happening on the 2012 and 2013 models and they were issued recalls to get the problem fixed. why not on the 2014 models which is the same truck

Brake failure due to broken brake line. The hard metal brake line that runs from the distribution line on the ABS unit to the front drivers side brake came in contact with the steering linkage rubbing a hole in it. I have notified Ford customer care and my local dealer and they do not wish to take care of the issue. This posses a huge safety concern.

Hydraulic brake control unit, mileage of truck is 47438 when diagnosed. Possibly brake failure, ABS failure and downhill control fault. Confirmed by dealer, 5/24/2021. Was confirmed by Johnson City TN Ford technician. Yes, service advanced trac warning, hill descent control fault, then brake fault with all brake warning lights lit (ABS, parking and brake) No access to scanner but have paper copy of invoice

Truck looses power and throttle response when accelerating into traffic or driving on the highway. My vehicle was nearly hit from behind when faster moving vehicles came upon it. And almost caused a head on collision do to vehicles driving around me. This has happened several times. Vehicle has a pending code p2112 but if ignition is turned off code does not store in vehicle computer. Took vehicle to Ford dealership but was told nothing could be done to repair the vehicle since the code wasn’t stored in the computer

THIS HAS HAPPENED AT LEAST 3 TIMES. RECALL COVERS 2011-2013. MY VEHICLE WAS BUILT IN 2013, BUT DEALERS REFUSE TO REPAIR THE PROBLEM UNDER RECALL.

MY TRUCK DIED, I THEN JUMPED IT AND IT WAS STUCK IN 5TH GEAR AND I DROVE HOME AND SEARCHED IT SO I RESTARTED IT AND IT WAS FIXED. IT HAS TO DO WITH THE MOLDED LEAD FRAME.

WE WERE DRIVING AT 55 MPH DOWN HIGHWAY WHEN SUDDENLY TRUCKS REAR END JUMPED UP IN THE AIR I COASTED TO THE SHOULDER GOT TOWED TO SHOP TO FIND OUT THE REAR END TRANSFER CASE AND TRANSMISSION HAD LOCKED UP AND COMPLETLY STRIPPED EVERYTHING TEETH WERE BROKEN ON ALL PARTS PIECES LITTERALLY FELL OUT OF THE REAR END WHILE TAKING IT APART PUT ALL NEW PARTS IN TRUCK REAR END TRANSFER AND TRANSMISSION ONLY TO HAVE IT TO DO AGAIN ONLY THIS TIME I WAS GOING 30 MPH SO IT DIDNT DESTROY POWER TRAIN THIS TIME ONLY SHOT TO FIRST GEAR AND STAYED THERE LIMP MODE IS WHAT THEY CALL IT AND I FOUND A RECALL ON CERTAIAN 2013 2014 2015 AND 2016 MODELS YET IT ISNT SHOWING UP ONLINE HERE THE MECHANIC SAID THAT EXPLAINED WHAT HAPPENED TO THE FIRST POWER TRAIN HOW IT WAS GUTTED FROM REAR END TO TRANSMISSION I WAS TOWING A TRAILER THE FIRST TIME HE SAID THAT WAS THE ONLY THING THAT KEPT ME FROM FLIPPING LUCKY ME SO HOW DO I GET FORD TO NAME THIS A RECALL AND REIMBURSE MY FIRST BILL CONCERNED CONSUMER

I HAVE BEEN GETTING GETTING AIRBAG SYMBOL ON DASH FOR ABOUT 3 YEARS. I HAVE BROUGHT THE TRUCK TO 4 DIFFERENT FORD DEALERS TO REPAIR. THE FIRST TIME IT CAME ON, I WAS TOLD TO PARK TRUCK AND NOT DRIVE IT BY FORD, THE AIRBAG COULD DEPLOY AT ANY TIME. WHEN I BRING THE TRUCK TO THE DEALER, THEY CLAIM TO REPAIR ISSUE. AFTER I LEAVE DEALER, IN ABOUT 1 MONTH, THE LIGHT WILL COME BACK ON. THE LAST FORD DEALER (HOOD IN HAMMOND) WHICH HAS CLAIMED TO REPAIRED IT, AFTER IT CAME BACK ON, THEY SAYS THAT THE FRONT SEAT NEEDS TO BE REMOVED TO REPAIR. ALSO SEAT TENTIONER HAS BEEN REPLACED BY ANOTHER FORD DEALER. I HAVE HAD TO USE MY EXTENDED WARRANTY AND HAVE TO PAY $100 COPAY. I HAVE CONTACTED FORD A COUPLE TIME ALSO. THIS ISSUE HAS BEEN GOING ON FOR ABOUT 3 YEARS. I DO NOT KNOW IF AIRBAGS WILL WORK OR NOT. VERY DISSAPOINTED WITH THE UNPROFESSIONALISM OF DEALERS (SERVICE MANAGERS) AND FORD CUSTOMER SERVICE. THIS ISSUE OF NOT KNOWING IF AIRBAGS ARE WORKING PROPERLY ARE NOT IS VERY DISTRUBING. I AM GIVING AN ESTIMATE OF MILEAGE AND DATE WHEN FIRST OCCURED.

FIRST INCIDENT HAPPENED YESTERDAY 4/17/21 WHEN DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 25 MILES AM HOUR THE VEHICLE WOULD NOT SHIFT UP FROM FIRST GEAR, OR IT INTO NEUTRAL AND THEN BACK TO DRIVE AND IT WORKED LIKE NORMAL. TODAY 4/18/21 I'VE HAD TWO INCIDENTS, THE FIRST WHILE DRIVING 45 MPH THE VEHICLE DROPPED DOWN TO 2ND GEAR, RAPIDLY SLOWING. I SHOWED TO FIRST GEAR, PUT INTO NEUTRAL AND BACK TO DRIVE AND EVERYTHING WAS FINE. WHILE DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY AT APPROXIMATELY 65-70 MPH MY TRUCK SUDDENLY DOWNSHIFTED FROM 6TH TO 2ND GEAR, DECELERATING EXTREMELY QUICKLY. I WAS ABLE TO PULL OVER TO AN EXIT AND PUT THE VEHICLE INTO NEUTRAL AND THEN BACK INTO DRIVE AND THE TRANSMISSION RESUMED LIKE NORMAL. THIS IS EXTREMELY CONCERNING THAT THIS WILL HAPPEN WHEN DRIVING AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS AND THE FACT THIS VEHICLE IS MY DAILY DRIVER AND I USUALLY HAVE MY KIDS IN THE VEHICLE WITH ME. IM VERY CONCERNED ABOUT THE SAFETY OF DRIVING NOW ESPECIALLY AFTER LEARNING THIS EXACT ISSUE WAS RECALLED ON THE VEHICLES A YEAR BEFORE MINE WITH THREE SAME 6 SPEED TRANSMISSION, BUT NOT ON MY YEAR.

VEHICLE SHIFTED FROM 6TH GEAR TO FIRST WHILE DRIVING WHICHED LOCKED UP THE REAR WHEELS. THIS WAS CAUSED BY THE LEAD FRAME ON THE TRANSMISSION. THERE IS A CURRENT RECALL FOR THIS ISSUE WITH FORD THAT STOPS THE YEAR BEFORE MY VEHICLE WAS PRODUCED. IT HAS THE SAME TRASMISSION AS THE EARLIER MODEL.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 FORD F-150. THE CONTACT STATED UPON STARTING THE VEHICLE, SEVERAL UNKNOWN WARNING LIGHTS WERE ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO FREEDOM FORD LINCOLN INC (151 WOODLAND DR SW, WISE, VA 24293) TO BE DIAGNOSED. THE CONTACT WAS INFORMED THAT THE ABS HYDRAULIC UNIT NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE CONTACT RELATED THE ISSUE TO NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 20V332000 (SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC). THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS INFORMED OF THE FAILURE. THE CONTACT WAS INFORMED THAT THE VIN WAS NOT UNDER RECALL. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 37,890.

BRAKE PEDALS WHEN PRESSED WENT RIGHT TO THE FLOOR. THE VEHICHILE WAS STATIONARY IN MY DRIVEWAY. HAD IT TOWED TO A FORD DEALERSHIP. THEY REPLACED THE MASTER CYLINDER AND BOOSTER PUMP. I HAVE A F150 ECO 3.5

I WAS PULLING A EMPTY TRAILER AND IT STARTED DOWN SHIFTING AT 35-45 MPH I HAD TO PUT IT IN NEUTRAL WHILE DRIVING THEN BACK TO DRIVE TO GEAR UP IT DID IT AROUND 75 MPH THE FIRST TIME AND WI5H A TRAILER HAD TO COME TO A HAUNTING STOP ON A HIGHWAY IT'S IN THE PAST HOUR DONE IT 5 TIMES .... THIS IS NOT SAFE!

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 FORD F-150. THE CONTACT STATED WHILE DRIVING 65 MPH, THE VEHICLE LOSS MOTIVE POWER WITHOUT WARNING. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED WITH NEEDING THE FUSE BOX TO BE RELOCATED. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT INFORMED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 69,000. THE VIN WAS NOT AVAILABLE.

I USED REMOTE START IN WINTER GOT IN TRUCK AND WHEN I WENT TO PUT IN GEAR THE REAR GLASS SHATTERED IT WAS A SLIDING REAR WINDOW AND IT WAS THE DRIVER SIDE OF IT THAT SHATTERED BEHIND THE DRIVERS HEAD THERE WAS NO VISIBLE IMPACT OF ANY KIND .. I WAS STATIONARY.

WHILE TRAVELING NORTHBOUND ON HWY 90 BY CHIMNEYROCK EXIT MY TRUCK SUDDENLY AND ABRUPTLY DOWNSHIFTED TO 1ST, 2ND, 1ST AND 3RD. HAD TO OULL OVER AND STARTED GOING AGAIN. NOW IT GETS STUCK IN THIRD AND IS MAKING ONE OF THE CYLINDERS MISFIRE.

I WAS ON THE HIGHWAY HEADING OUT OF TOWN GOING 70 MPH, THE SPEEDOMETER WENT TO ZERO AND THE RPM REV UP TO 4000RPM AND FELT LIKE A DOWNSHIFT , I HAD A CAR AND SEMI PASSING ME. IT WAS A SCARY MOMENT FOR. I TOOK IT TO A WELL KNOWN MECHANIC AND RAN A TEST AND TOLD ME THE LEAD FRAME WAS BAD. HE INFORMED ME THAT MY TRUCK WAS NOT UNDER RECALL BECAUSE MY TRUCK WAS NOT AT THE PLANT WHERE THE LEAD FRAME WAS FAULTY.

BRAKE FLUID KEEPS DRAINING WITH NO VISIBLE LEAKS. HAVING THE SAME ISSUE AS OTHERS IN ITS YEAR WITH FLUID DRAINING INTO THE BRAKE BOOSTER BUT HAS HAD NO RECALL FIX COMPLETED.

SPONTANEOUS SHATTERING OF REAR WINDSHIELD. THIS IS THE SECOND TIME IN WHICH THIS HAS HAPPENED WHERE THE REAR WINDOW SHATTERED WITH NO CAUSE UNDER THE EXACT SAME CIRCUMSTANCE.. THERE IS NO SIGNS OF INTENTIONAL DAMAGE OR IMPACT. AT THE TIME THE VEHICLE WAS PARKED, AND RUNNING WITH THE REMOTE START FUNCTION. THE REAR DEFROST WAS ACTIVATED.

ON THE DAY OF 02/16/2021 I HAD THE REMOTE START ON THE TRUCK SO IT WILL WARM UP AND I HAVE EVERYTHING PRESET ALREADY FOR WARM HEATED AIR AND THE BACK GLASS HEATER AND MIRROR HEATERS TURNED ON. WHEN I GET INTO THE TRUCK IT WAS WARM AND OIL WAS BROUGHT UP TO TEMP SO I WAS READY TO HEAD OUT. WHEN I NOTICED OUT OF MY REAR VIEW MIRROR THAT THE BACK GLASS WAS SHATTERED DRIVER SIDE IT IS A 3 PIECE/1 PIECE GLASS SO IT'S SEPARATED PIECES OF GLASS BY A DIVIDER BUT CAN ONLY BE REPLACED BY BUYING THE WHOLE PIECE AND KIT. I'VE NOTICED THERE HAVE BEEN SEVERAL OTHER INCIDENTS ON THIS VEHICLE IT IS A 2014 F-150 SUPER CREW 4X4 I'M SUPER UPSET SEEING AS THE TRUCK I HAVEN'T HAD LONG AND ALSO THE FACT THAT FORD DOESN'T WANNA OWN UP TO THEIR FLAW IN THE GLASS. I ALSO LIVE OUT IN THE COUNTRY SO VERY UNLIKELY SOMEONE DID THIS TO MY TRUCK MY DRIVE WAY IS PRETTY LONG SO IT ALL MAKES SENSE THIS SHOULD BE A RECALL IF THIS WOULD HAVE HAPPENED WHILE DRIVING I'M SURE THE LOUD POP OF THE GLASS SHATTERED WOULD HAVE DISTRACTED ME ENOUGH TO HAVE AN ACCIDENT AND INJURE MYSELF OR OTHERS. CONSIDERING MY FIRST ASSUMPTION WOULD BE A GUN GOING OFF AND SOMEONE IS FIRING AT ME.

THERE'S A KNOWN PROBLEM WITH FUSE #27 OVERHEATING AND CAUSING THE FUEL PUMP TO STOP WORKING. DO A GOOGLE SEARCH. IT AFFECTS MANY YEARS PRIOR TO 2014. THIS IS SERIOUS AS IT CAN LEAVE PEOPLE STRANDED. IT HAS NOT THROWN A COMPUTER CODE FROM 2014 F15. SIMPLY REPLACING THE FUSE DID ALLOW STARTING BUT IT WILL HAPPEN AGAIN. THERE'S A FUSE RELOCATION KIT (EL3Z-14293A) AVAILABLE BUT FORD SHOULD BE RESPONSIBLE FOR PERFORMING THIS REPAIR. THE FUSE DOES'NT BLOW OUT BUT THE FUSE SOCKET OVERHEATS FOR SOME REASON.

WHILE PARKED,ENGINE OFF AND SITTING BEHIND THE WHEEL THE REAR WINDOW PANEL SHATTERED WITHOUT ANY PRIOR DAMAGE TO AFFECT BREAKAGE. THE PANEL IS THE DRIVER SIDE OF 3 PANELS OF PICKUP TRUCK. AFTER RESEARCHING , I'VE BEEN MADE AWARE THAT FORD MOTOR COMPANY KNOWS OF THE DEFECT BUT HAS NOT TAKEN ACTION IN RECALLS.

DRIVING DOWN THE HIGHWAY WITH THE REAR DEFROST ON TRYING TO CLEAR THE BACK WINDOW, DRIVER SIDE REAR GLASS SHATTERED FOR NO REASON. I WILL BE REPLACING THE BACK GLASS, AS I HAVE RESEARCHED AND FOUND NO EVIDENCE TO SUPPORT A RECALL FROM FORD AT THIS TIME.

BOUGHT USED THE AIR BAG LIGHT WAS ON. DEALER FIXED IT ONCE UNDER WARRANTY OR RECALL. THE LIGHT IS BACK ON AND OUT OF WARRANTY. THE SEATS BELTS DO NOT GRAB AT ALL WHEN HEAVY ON THE BRAKES. THERE WOULD BE NO SEAT BELTS IN A WRECK. PLUS THE VEHICLE WILL NOT PASS STATE INSPECTION. 2014 WITH 37,000 MILES

REAR GLASS EXPLODED !!!!!! WHILE SITTING IN PARKING LOT MOTOR WAS OFF WINDOWS WERE DOWN TEMP WAS AROUND 60 DEGREES DEFROST WAS OFF AS A MATTER OF FACT I DON'T THINK I HAVE EVER USED THE DEFROST AND GLASS EXPLODED

WHILE SITTING IN MY TRUCK WAITING FOR THE WINDOWS TO FINNISH DEFROSTING, I HEARD A LOUD BANG. I LOOKED BEHIND ME AND SAW THAT THE BACK WINDOW HAD SHATTERED. I IMMEDIATELY GOT OUT TO INVESTIGATE AS IT SOUNDED LIKE A GUN SHOT! I LIVE ON A MILITARY BASE AND VIOLENCE OF THIS KIND IS VERY UNLIKELY. I LOOKED AROUND TO SEE THAT THERE WAS NO ONE AROUND THAT COULD HAVE HIT OR THROWN SOMETHING AT MY TRUCK. I CALLED THE INSURANCE AGENT AND HAD AN APPT SET FOR WINDOW REPLACEMENT. WHEN THE TECH ARRIVED I ASKED HIM IF HE HAD SEEN ANYTHING LIKE THIS BEFORE, A WINDOW JUST BREAKING ON ITS OWN. HE SAID THAT HE SEES A FAIR NUMBER OF 2014 F150S WITH THIS PROBLEM, AND EVEN THOUGHT THERE WAS A RECALL FOR SUCH. HE SAID THE HEATING ELEMENT IN THE REAR DEFROST SHORTS OUT AND BREAKS THE WINDOW. WHEN I CALLED FORD THEY SAID THERE WAS NO RECALL AND THEY HAVE NEVER HEARD OF SUCH A PROBLEM. A SIMPLE SEARCH ON THE INTERNET SHOWS A PLETHRA OF SIMULAR COMPLAINTS NOT JUST ON 2014 MODELS, BUT 2015 AND 2016 AS WELL. THIS IS DANGEROUS! I COULD HAVE BEEN DRIVING AND HAD A SERIOUS ACCIDENT AS A RESULT OF THIS. WORSE EVEN WOULD BE IF MY DAUGHTER WAS SITTING BACK THERE. I AM TIRED OF THE MONEY HUNGRY CORPORATIONS NOT DOING THEIR ETHICAL AND MORAL JOB OF KEEPING THEIR CUSTOMERS SAFE, AND THIS WILL NOT CHANGE UNLESS WE HOLD THEM ACCOUNTABLE. THANK YOU FOR THE SERVICE YOU PROVIDE TO AMERICANS. I HOPE TO SEE A RECALL ABOUT THIS ISSUE.

VEHICLE STARTED TO DOWN SHIFT INTO 1ST AND 2ND GEARS WHILE DRIVING CAUSING SCARY NOISES AND VEHICLE RPM TO JUMP VERY HIGH AND VEHICLE REAR TIRES TO LOCK UP. VEHICLE DOES THIS WHEN IN MOTION ON HIGHWAYS AND CITY STREETS. ANYTIME I ACCELERATE THE TRANSMISSION DOWN SHIFTS

SPORADICALLY, OVER THE LAST 6 MONTHS (BUT WITH MORE FREQUENCY IN RECENT MONTHS), AT VARIOUS SPEEDS OR WITH NO OTHER COMMON DENOMINATOR, THE TRUCK LOSES POWER TO THE TRANSMISSION, THE SPEEDOMETER DROPS TO ZERO, AND THE WRENCH LIGHT COMES ON. THE ONLY WAY TO KEEP THE TRUCK FUNCTIONING IS TO PULL OVER, TURN THE VEHICLE OFF, AND RESTART IT. MOST TIMES, THIS WILL FIX THE ISSUE. IT'S OBVIOUSLY BEEN DANGEROUS IN MULTIPLE INSTANCES. WHILE THE TRUCK IS A 6-SPEED, 2014 FORD F-150, IT WAS BUILT IN NOVEMBER OF 2013. REGARDLESS OF THIS, MY VIN IS NOT PART OF RECALL 19V433000 OR 19V075000, DESPITE THE SAME ISSUE AS THE RECALLS. THESE ADDITIONAL MANUFACTURE DATES SHOULD BE INCLUDED. I WAS ALARMED TO SEE THE NUMEROUS CLAIMS WITH THE SAME ISSUE, OUTSIDE OF THE RECALL. FORD NEEDS TO MAKE ADDITIONAL CONSIDERATIONS TO THAT EFFECT. THIS IS OUR 5TH FORD BETWEEN MY WIFE AND I, OF WHICH 4 WERE TRUCKS. CONSIDERING FORD'S NEGLIGENT FLAW HASN'T BEEN CONSIDERED FOR ANY RECALL, DESPITE OVERWHELMING EVIDENCE FROM ITS OWNERS, IT WILL DEFINITELY BE THE LAST FORD PURCHASED BY US, OUR EXTENDED FAMILY, AND ANY OF OUR BUSINESS AND PERSONAL ASSOCIATES TO WHOM WE WILL PASS ALONG THIS CONCERN. IT'S EXTREMELY DISAPPOINTING.

A COOLANT LEAK FROM THE UPPER HOSE AT THE CONNECTION THE HOSE IS IN GOOD CONT IT APPEARS TO BE THE PLASTIC O RING THATS CAUSES IT TO LEAK

INTERMITTENT LOSS OF POWER STEERING FUNCTION

DRIVING THROUGH PARKING LOT OF WALMART TRAVELING AT SPEED 10 MILES . NO ONE WAS AROUND ME.I WAS ABOUT TO PARK WHENI I HEARD A LOUD BANG. CHECKED AROUND THE TRUCK ON TOP AND SIDES. WHEN I OPENED THE REAR DOORS FOUND THAT RIGHT REAR WAS SHATTERED. THIS IS THE SECOND TIME THIS HAS HAPPENED. TWO YEARS AGO I PAYED FOR THE REPAIRS DONE BY SAFTELITE AUTO GLASS. AT THAT TIME THE WHOLE REAR GLASS SHATTERED WHEN I,WAS STOPPED AT A RED LIGHT.

2014 F150 ECOBOOST: WHILE DRIVING ~50MPH, THE VEHICLE ABRUPTLY DOWNSHIFTED TO FIRST GEAR CAUSING MY REAR TIRES TO LOCK UP. I WAS ABLE TO CONTROL THE SKIP AND REDUCED MY SPEED TO PULL TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD. AT THAT TIME, MY VEHICLE WOULD NOT SHIFT OUT OF FIRST GEAR. I TURNED THE VEHICLE OFF AND RESTARTED IT TO RESET ANY ELECTRONIC CONTROLS AND THE VEHICLE WAS ABLE TO DRIVE NORMAL AGAIN. SIMILAR OCCURRENCES HAVE HAPPENED INTERMITTENTLY, WHERE THE VEHICLE WOULD NOT SHIFT OUT OF FIRST AFTER COMING TO A REST. OR THE VEHICLE WOULD REMAIN IN 5TH GEAR, IF I WAS ALREADY IN MOTION WHEN IT ACTED UP AND WOULD NOT SHIFT DOWN EVEN IF I CAME TO A REST. FROM MY RESEARCH, THIS APPEARS TO BE SIMILAR TO THE LEAD FRAME RECALL THAT HAS BEEN ISSUED FOR 2011-2013 VEHICLES. MY VEHICLE WAS MANUFACTURED ON 11/13, BUT APPEARS TO BE OUTSIDE OF THE RECALL TIMEFRAME.

FORD HAS OBVIOUSLY MACHINED MANIFOLDS FOR THE F-150 THAT ARE LESS THAN RELIABLE AND LACK IN QUALITY. THE EXHAUST MANIFOLDS ARE NOT HARDENED TO ENDURE ENGINE HEAT AND END UP WARPING. THIS CAUSES EXHAUST BOLTS TO BREAK, EXHAUST GASKETS TO BE DESTROYED AND IN TURN CAUSES LOUD NOISES AND POTENTIAL DAMAGE TO THE MOTOR ON THEIR F-150 TRUCKS. FORD OBVIOUSLY KNOWS THAT THEY HAVE A PROBLEM ON THEIR HANDS AS THEY ARE CURRENTLY DEALING WITH 1,700+ VEHICLES THAT ARE SITTING IN SERVICE SHOPS ACROSS THE COUNTRY FOR THIS VERY REASON. I CALLED FORD TO FIND OUT WHAT WAS CAUSING THE ISSUE AND THEY EXPLAINED THAT THE MATERIALS JUST AREN'T HOLDING UP TO DRIVING CONDITIONS. FORD IS WORKING REDESIGNING THE MANIFOLDS AND RELEASING THEM FOR PURCHASE. HOWEVER, IT YOU HAVE AN ISSUE THIS LARGE AND HAVE ADMITTED THAT IT IS DUE TO YOUR OWN FAILURE TO PRODUCE A PRODUCT/PART THAT WILL ENDURE NORMAL DRIVING CONDITIONS, THIS SHOULD BE RECALLED AND FIXED BY FORD. PERSONALLY, I DON'T DRIVE THIS TRUCK VERY OFTEN. IT IS STORED INSIDE AND TAKEN CARE OF TO THE EXTREME. THE VEHICLE HAD BEEN PARKED IN A GARAGE FOR A FEW DAYS TO A WEEK (APPROXIMATELY) AND WHEN I STARTED THE TRUCK I HEARD A LOUD "CLICKING" NOISE. I TOOK IT OUT FOR A DRIVE TO SEE IF I COULD LOCATE THE NOISE. AT FIRST IS WAS JUST A FAST CLICKING NOISE ON ACCELERATION. THIS BECAME A LOUD CLICKING MIXED WITH A WHISTLING NOISE. THINKING IT WAS A BEARING IN ONE OF THE TURBOS, I TOOK IT IN FOR INSPECTION AND THEY FOUND THE BROKEN EXHAUST STUD AND DAMAGED EXH

ON 12/11/2020 I TURNED ON MY REAR WINDOW DEFROST AND THE DRIVER SIDE REAR WINDOW SHATTERED.
