2014 Ford F-150 complaints

WHEN I TURNED ON THE REAR DEFROST THE BACK WINDOW OF THE TRUCK SHATTERED. ON 11-24-20, I WARMED UP MY 2014 FORD F150 WITH THE REMOTE START FEATURE. WHEN I PUT THE KEY IN, I TURNED ON THE REAR DEFROSTER WHILE THE TRUCK WAS STILL IN PARK. THE BACK WINDOW DRIVER SIDE PANE SHATTERED. I HAVE CONTACTED FORD 8 TIMES, BUT THE RESPONSE IS CONTINUALLY THE SAME, "IT IS THE OWNER'S RESPONSIBILITY, NOT FORD." FORD HAS A SERIOUS PRODUCT FAILURE THAT HAS BEEN ALLOWED TO PERSIST FOR TOO LONG.

2014 FORD F-150. CONSUMER WRITES IN REGARDS TO THROTTLE BODY FAILURE. *LD THE CONSUMER STATED THE TIRES SEIZED UP AND THE VEHICLE STOPPED. THE ACCELERATOR FAILED AND A WRENCH WAS DISPLAYED ON THE DASH. THE VEHICLE THE COASTS AT 5MPH. THE VEHICLE CAN POWERED OFF AND ON WHICH MAY TEMPORARILY CLEAR THE FAILURE. *JS

I RECENTLY HAD MY LOW BRAKE FLUID WARNING COME ON, DIDN'T THINK MUCH OF IT AT THE TIME AND ADDED SOME DOT4 FLUID TO MY RESERVOIR. LOOKED THINGS OVER BRIEFLY, THE RESERVOIR SEEMED INTACT, MASTER CYLINDER DIDN'T APPEAR WET, NO SPOTS ON THE GARAGE FLOOR, SO ALL WAS GOOD. AFTER ALL THE TRUCK IS 6+ YEARS OLD, I JUST FIGURED THE TIME HAD JUST COME TO SERVICE THE FLUID AND HAVE THE BRAKES LOOKED AT. TWO WEEKS LATER I HADN'T HAD TIME TO GET IT TO THE SHOP AND THE WARNING APPEARED AGAIN. SO I CHECKED THE RESERVOIR AND SURE ENOUGH IT WAS LOW AGAIN. SO THIS TIME MY INVESTIGATION WAS DEEPER AND I FOUND FLUID ON THE BOTTOM OF THE MASTER CYLINDER WHEN I WIPED MY HAND UNDER IT. THE FOUND MORE BELOW THE MASTER CYLINDER ON THE SHOCK MOUNT AND INNER FENDER WELL. SO I STARTED SHOPPING AND CHECKING PRICES ON PARTS I MIGHT NEED TO FIX THIS AND HAPPENED ON THIS ARTICLE ON TODAY'S GOOGLE, ABOUT A RECALL. SO I WENT TO THE NTSB WEB SITE AND CHECKED MY VIN #. NOPE NO RECALL FOR MY VIN #. WENT BACK TO THE ARTICLE AND REREAD IT. SO IT SEAMS THAT MY 2014 WITH THE MADE IN DEARBORN STICKER STILL IN THE FRONT WINDOW IS NOT PART OF THE RECALL THAT DESCRIBES MY PROBLEM TO THE 'T' ! I CERTAINLY BELIEVE IT DOES, AS DO THE PRO'S I'VE SHOWN. I'M AN A&P FAA NDT INSPECTOR AND DEAL WITH THESE VERY ISSUES IN THE AIRLINE BUSINESS DAILY AND THINK THERE MIGHT BE AN OVERSIGHT TO THE NUMBER OF TRUCKS INCLUDED IN THE RECALL. I PLAN TO GO AHEAD WITH MY REPAIRS BECAUSE I NEED IT, BUT HOPE YOU WILL EXAMINE YOUR SCOPE OF THIS

THE AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION WILL NOT SHIFT INTO GEAR FROM NEUTRAL WHEN STOPPED ON OCCASION. THE TRANSMISSION HAS ON SEVERAL OCCASIONS STARTED IN 5TH GEAR FROM A STOP AND WILL NOT ALLOW A MANUAL SHIFT TO ANY LOWER GEAR UNTIL IT FINALLY SENSES A SPEED CHANGE. WHEN VEHICLE IS MOVING FROM AN STOP WHEN STUCK IN 5TH GEAR IF MANUALLY SHIFTED TO NEUTRAL AT SPEEDS UP TO 35 MPH AND ABOVE AND THEN SHIFTED TO DRIVE THE TRANSMISSION WILL DROP TO FIRST GEAR CAUSING THE ENGINE TO OVER REV. THIS PROBLEM STARTED OCTOBER 2020 AND WAS NOTED AT GUS JOHNSON FORD SPOKANE VALLEY WA AT A REGULAR SERVICE APPOINTMENT. NO VEHICLE CODE WAS NOTED AT THAT TIME. THE VEHICLE NOW HAS 71271 MILES ON IT. THIS PROBLEM IS NOTED ON A RECALL FOR MODEL YEARS 2011 THRU 2013, I DON'T THINK IT IS FIXED YET.

DOOR LATCHES GET STUCK LOCKED CAN NOT OPEN BY HAND IF I WAS TO GET IN A WRECK OR HAVE A MEDICAL ISSUE I COULD NOT EXIT VEHICLE THIS HAS BEEN GOING ON SINCE I PURCHASED VEHICLE ON ALL DOORS IN TRUCK I HAVE DONE REPLACED 1 ACTUATOR NOW ALL NEED REPLACING

#27 FUSE. 20AMP MICRO FUSE. MELTED AND FAILED. ENGINE CRANKS BUT WILL NOT TURN OVER. THIS IS A KNOWN ISSUE AMONG F150 OWNERS. THIS COULD BE A POTENTIAL SAFETY AND FIRE HAZARD AS THE FUSE IS BEING OVERHEATED AND FAILS. SCORCH MARKS AND MELTING ARE NOTED ON THE FUSE. VEHICLE WAS PARKED. FIRE COULD RESULT.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 FORD F-150. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE VEHICLE WAS LEAKING AN UNKNOWN FLUID. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO NORTH CENTRAL FORD (1819 N CENTRAL EXPY, RICHARDSON, TX 75080, (972) 584-1338) AND WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE VEHICLE WAS LEAKING COOLANT FROM THE LOWER DEGAS HOSE AND THE CONNECTOR. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE CONTACT CALLED AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC WHO STATED THAT THE FAILURE WAS A COMMON ISSUE. THE MANUFACTURER WAS CONTACTED BUT NO FURTHER ASSISTANCE WAS PROVIDED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 32,000.

2014 F150 LOST ABILITY TO SHIFT LOST SPEEDOMETER AND ODOMETER SAME ISSUES AS THE RECALLED LEAD FRAME FROM 2009 TO 2013 TRUCK WON'T SHIFT

WARNING LIGHT APPEARS "SERVICE ADVANCETRAC". ONCE. THEN WEEKS LATER LOST POWER STEERING WHILE DRIVING. AS A STRONG MAN HAD TO PRACTICALLY USE ALL MY BODY WEIGHT TO AVOID COLLISION WHILE ALMOST STANDING. GOT IT TOWED TO A FORD DEALERSHIP. DIAGNOSIS WAS DEFECTIVE ELECTRONIC STEERING GEAR. FORD HAD RECALL ON THIS SAME ISSUE BY RECALL #14S09, BUT MY TRUCK WAS NOT INCLUDED IN RECALL. THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE AND COULD HAVE CAUSED AN AWFUL ACCIDENT. OBVIOUSLY THE EPAS STEERING GEAR IS DEFECTIVE AND VEHICLES WITH IT NEED TO BE RECALLED BEFORE SOMEONE HAS A MAJOR ACCIDENT. THE COST WAS $2583 FOR A VEHICLE WITH ONLY 38897 MILES. THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE!!

ON 11/15/2020 THE BRAKE PEDAL IN MY 2014 FORD F150 WITH ECOBOOST WENT TO THE FLOOR WHILE WAITING AT A STOP LIGHT. THE BRAKE PEDAL COULD BE PUMPED UP, HOWEVER WOULD BLEED OFF TO THE FLOOR WITH CONSTANT MODERATE PRESSURE. WITH NO EXTERNAL LEAKS, THIS INDICATES A FAILED MASTER CYLINDER. I SEE THERE ARE TWO RECALLS ON THE 2014 FORD F150 WITH ECOBOOST THAT COVER ALL OF THE 2014 MODEL EXCEPT FOR TRUCKS BUILT IN JUNE AND JULY 2014. MASTER CYLINDER FAILURES AND LEAKS ARE COMMON IN 2014 F150 WITH ECOBOOST AND THIS IS EXTREMELY UNSAFE. LUCKILY ALTHOUGH I HAD 3 OTHER PASSENGERS AND TOWING A UTILITY TRAILER NO ONE WAS INJURED. CURRENTLY MY TRUCK IS IN THE SMALL GAP BETWEEN TWO RECALLS. THIS IS UNSATISFACTORY AND FORD MOTOR COMPANY SHOULD BE HELD TO ACCOUNT AND PROVIDE VEHICLES WITH BASIC SAFETY EQUIPMENT IN PROPER OPERATING ORDER.

DURING DRIVING THE STEERING RANDOMLY LOCKED UP. STEERING WAS NOT JUST STIFF (AS WOULD HAPPEN WITH THE CONVENTIONAL LOSS OF POWER STEERING); THE STEERING FELT LOCKED AS IF THE IGNITION WAS TURNED OFF AND THE WHEEL TURNED TO LOCK IN SOME VEHICLES. HAPPENED WHILE DRIVING THROUGH THE CITY AND TURNING CORNERS THE FIRST TWO TIMES, THIRD TIME WAS WHILE TRYING TO PARALLEL PARK. LOCKED UP WHILE TURNING BOTH TO THE LEFT AND TO THE RIGHT. THESE THREE OCCASIONS HAPPENED DURING A 10 MINUTE PERIOD. UNLOCKED SIMILARLY RANDOMLY (ATTEMPTED CRANKING HARDER ON THE WHEEL, JIGGLING, POWER CYCLING THE VEHICLE; NO LINK TO ANY OF THESE). A FEW WEEKS PRIOR TO THIS TRIP, THE STEERING BECAME SUDDENLY NOTCHY (FOUND HARD SPOTS IN ROTATION OF WHEEL THAT I POPPED OVER WITH MORE FORCE) WHILE DRIVING ~STRAIGHT ON THE HIGHWAY, RETURNED TO NORMAL WHEN DRIVING HOME. THEN OVER THE FOLLOWING WEEKS THE WHEEL STOPPED RETURNING TO CENTER AND BECAME STIFF ALL THE TIME AND NOTCHY FREQUENTLY. ATTEMPTED REPLACING INTERMEDIATE STEERING SHAFT, THINKING U-JOINTS WERE BINDING, BUT DID NOT FIX NOTCHY, STIFF STEERING. DIAGNOSIS AT MECHANIC REVEALED ELECTRONIC POWER STEERING WAS NONRESPONSIVE TO ELECTRONIC COMMUNICATION AND NOT RESPONDING TO COMMANDS WHEN COMMUNICATION WAS ESTABLISHED. REPLACEMENT OF POWER STEERING UNIT FIXED PROBLEM.

WHILE TRAVELING AT HIGHWAY SPEED, WHILE TOWING OUR RV, "LOW BRAKE FLUID" WARNING LIGHT CAME ON AND BRAKES FAILED. THE ONLY WAY I COULD SAFELY STOP WAS USING THE TRAILER BRAKES. I BELIEVE OUR VEHICLE SHOULD HAVE BEEN INCLUDED IN CURRENT RECALL, BUT FORD IS STATING OUR VIN IS NOT PART OF RECALL.

THE BACKUP CAMERA WORKS INTERMITTENTLY. WHEN PLACED IN REVERSE, THE BACKUP SCREEN THAT DISPLAYS THE IMAGE FROM THE CAMERA IS BLANK. THE VEHICLE'S TRANSMISSION SHIFTER HAS TO BE PLACED BACK INTO PARK OR PLACED INTO NEUTRAL, THEN BACK INTO REVERSE FOR THE CAMERA SCREEN TO DISPLAY AN IMAGE. THIS OCCURS WHEN STATIONARY OR MOVING. THIS PROBLEM BEGAN JUST AFTER THE PURCHASE OF VEHICLE. DEALERSHIP REPLACED CAMERA, BUT PROBLEM STILL OCCURS. RELYING ON THE CAMERA SCREEN TO FUNCTION WHEN NEEDED AND NOT WORKING, CREATED A NEAR MISS ON HITTING A FIXED OBJECT.

TRAVELING DOWN THE HIGHWAY AND REAR WINDOW PANEL ON THE DRIVER'S SIDE SHATTERED. NO IMPACT FROM ANY FOREIGN OBJECT. THIS WAS VERIFIED BY A SAFELITE REPRESENTATIVE. REAR WINDOW DEFROST WAS ON AT THE TIME.

STEERING WHEEL DOESN'T LOCK; MUSIC CONTINUE TO PLAY WITH KEY OUT AND DOORS OPEN; PUSH VOLUME BUTTON ON STEERING WHEEL RADIO CHANGE STATION.

TRAVELING DOWN A TWO-LANE ROAD ABOUT 50 MPH WHEN THE TRUCK'S ENGINE SUDDENLY LOST ALL POWER AND AN ERROR MESSAGE POPPED UP ON THE SCREEN. HAD TO STOP IN THE MIDDLE OF THE ROAD BLOCKING TRAFFIC DUE TO NO SHOULDER. HAD TO PUT TRUCK IN PARK, TURN OFF MOTOR AND ONLY THEN WAS ABLE TO GET MOTOR RUNNING AGAIN. MANAGED TO GET 1/4 MILE BACK HOME. FOUND OUT FROM MY OBD DIAGNOSTICS THAT THE THROTTLE BODY WAS STUCK. ONLY OPTION WAS TO REPLACE THE THROTTLE BODY TO ENSURE IT DIDN'T OCCUR IN THE MIDDLE OF THE ROAD OR WORSE, A MAJOR INTERSECTION. NO PROBLEMS SINCE REPLACEMENT.

I STARTED MY TRUCK WITH AUTOMATIC START SO THAT IT COULD WARM UP. WHEN I WAS READY TO LEAVE I WENT OUTSIDE, GOT INTO TRUCK AND PUT THE KEYS IN. I WAS ABOUT TO BACK UP WHEN I NOTICED MY BACK WINDOW HAD FOG ON IT SO I TRIED TO TURN ON THE REAR DEFOGGER. THE LIGHT WOULD NOT COME ON SAYING THAT IT WAS ON SO I PUSHED THE BUTTON A FEW MORE TIMES. THE LIGHT NEVER CAME ON. I WAS ABOUT TO BACK MY TRUCK OUT OF THE DRIVEWAY WHEN ALL OF A SUDDEN I HEAR A LOUD BANG AND MY SON, WHO WAS IN THE BACK SEAT FACING FORWARD WITH HIS SEATBELT ON, SAID THE BACK WINDOW IS CRACKING. IT WAS THE REAR WINDOW ON THE DRIVERS SIDE. I GOT OUT TO LOOK AND NOTHING HAD HIT THE BACK WINDOW, IT JUST BROKE ON ITS OWN. I DON'T KNOW IF THIS WAS A FAILURE TO THE REAR DEFOGGER OR THE WINDOW

OVER THE PAST SEVERAL WEEKS, THE TRUCK HAS BEGUN DOWNSHIFTING TO FIRST GEAR AT RANDOM SPEEDS AND INTERVALS. SOMETIMES IT HAPPENS AT 30-40 MPH BUT RECENTLY IT HAS OCCURRED AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS OF OVER 70. I HAVE CALLED FORD CONSUMER HELP TO NO AVAIL AND GONE TO MY LOCAL DEALER.

THE DRIVERS SIDE FRONT STARTED LEAKING BRAKE FLUID. BEFORE I SAW THAT I WAS PARKED, STARTED UP THE VEHICLE AND STEPPED ON THE BRAKE PEDAL TO SHIFT INTO REVERSE. THE BRAKE PEDAL FELT LOOSE AND WENT ALL THE WAY TO THE FLOOR. I THEN EXAMINED THE EXTERIOR, WHERE I SAW THE LEAKING. TO ME THIS FITS THE RECALL FOR THE BRAKES/CYLINDER, BUT MY VEHICLE DOES NOT FALL WITHIN THE CORRECT DATE OF MANUFACTORING. IT IS A 2014 FORD F-150 WITH THE 3.5 ECOBOOST IT HAS BARELY 80K MILES. I HAVE NEVER HAD A BRAKE ISSUE ON A VEHICLE BEFORE ESPECIALLY ONE UNDER 100K. I THINK THEY NEED TO EXPAND THE RECALL. I WOULD BE WILLING TO OFFER UP MY BROKEN PARTS FOR THEM TO LOOK AT. I WAS LUCKY THE VEHICLE WAS PARKED AND I WAS SMART ENOUGH TO GET OUT AND LOOK AS I NOTICED SOMETHING WAS WRONG.

NHTSA RECALL 16V-345 8/11/20, I ENCOUNTERED THE DEFECT DESCRIBED IN THE ABOVE SRREPORT. THE VEHICLE EXPERIENCED A SUDDEN LOSS OF BRAKE FLUID WITH THE RESULTING VISUAL AND AUDIBLE ALARMS. I VERIFIED AT THAT TIME THAT THE RESERVOIR IN THE MASTER CYLINDER WAS EMPTY AND THAT THE BRAKE FLUID HAD LEAKED FROM THE RESERVOIR. ADDITIONAL BRAKE FLUID WAS ADDED AND THE BRAKES WERE CYCLED TO ATTEMPT TO GET BRAKING PERFORMANCE BACK. 3 CUPS OF FLUID LEAKED FROM THE RESERVOIR WITH NO VISIBLE LIQUID ON THE OUTSIDE OF THE RESERVOIR OR ANYWHERE ELSE UNDER THE VEHICLE. THERE WAS LEAKAGE INTO THE BRAKE BOOSTER. NHTSA 16V-345 STATES: 'OWNERS WILL BE INSTRUCTED TO TAKE THEIR VEHICLE TO A FORD DEALER TO HAVE THE BRAKE MASTER CYLINDER REPLACED. ADDITIONALLY, THE BRAKE BOOSTER WILL BE REPLACED IF THE BRAKE MASTER CYLINDER IS LEAKING.' SR 16S24 STATES AS TO REMEDY: 'OWNERS WILL BE INSTRUCTED TO TAKE THEIR VEHICLE TO A FORD DEALER TO HAVE THE BRAKE MASTER CYLINDER REPLACED ADDITIONALLY THE BRAKE BOOSTER WILL BE REPLACED IF THE BRAKE MASTER CYLINDER IS LEAKING.' TOOK THE VEHICLE TO A FORD DEALER (CLASSIC FORD OF COLUMBIA). AFTER THE DEALER COMPLETING THEIR EVALUATION, I WAS ADVISED THAT THE MASTER CYLINDER HAD FAILED AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED AND THAT, THE BRAKE BOOSTER NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE BRAKE BOOSTER WAS STATED TO BE AT MY EXPENSE AND NOT COVERED BY THE RECALL. I POINTED OUT TO THE DEALER THAT I WANTED THE MASTER CYLINDER AND THE BRAKE BOOSTER REPAIRED UNDER THE RECALL. UPON DELIVERY I INQUIRED

MY 2014 FORD F150 QUAD CAB TRUCK WAS PARKED AFTER DRIVING TO WORK, APPROXIMATELY 20 MINUTES OF DRIVING. AFTER PARKING THE CAR, ANOTHER EMPLOYEE NOTICED THE COOLING FAN WAS STILL RUNNING (OR ENGINE-ON SOUND) AND AT THE END OF MY ~9 HOUR SHIFT, I RETURNED TO MY FORD TRUCK WITH A DEAD BATTERY, WHICH REQUIRED A BOOST TO START THE TRUCK. AFTER RETURNING HOME FROM WORK, THE COOLING FAN CONTINUED TO OPERATE WITH THE VEHICLE PARKED AND THE IGNITION SWITCH IN THE OFF POSITION. AFTER REVIEWING THE ELECTRICAL DIAGRAM USING A FORD MOTORCRAFT ONLINE MANUAL SUBSCRIPTION, AND TRACING THE COOLING FAN CIRCUIT, WE FOUND THAT THE COOLING FAN RELAY (HI-POWER FOMOCO, RELAY NUMBER O101K 8T2T-14B192-AA) IF LIGHTLY TAPPED WITH A SMALL SCREWDRIVER HANDLE, THE COOLING FAN TURNED OFF. THE AIR FLOW THROUGH THE COOLING FAN AND HEAT EX-CHANGERS DID NOT FEEL HOT IN TEMPERATURE AND THERE WAS NO OVERHEAT CONDITION WITH THE COOLING SYSTEM, MALFUNCTIONING AC SYSTEM, OR AIR FLOW RESTRICTIONS. A NEW RELAY (ONE OF EIGHT RELAYS [WITH THE SAME PART NUMBER] LOCATED IN THE BATTERY JUNCTION BOX - BJB) WAS PURCHASED AT A LOCAL FORD DEALER BASED ON THE RELAY NUMBER MENTIONED ABOVE. THIS RELAY WAS IN-STOCK. UPON INSPECTING THE OLD RELAY, THE SIDE OF THE OUTER PLASTIC HOUSING HAD A MELT/BURN MARK, SHOWING SIGNS OF OVERHEATING. THIS WAS A CONCERN, AS WHEN THE OLD RELAY OUTER PLASTIC COVER WAS REMOVED, SIGNS OF ARCING/OVERHEATING WITHIN THE BI-METAL RELAY SWITCH WAS FOUND AND THE BI-METAL PIECE WAS NOT PROPERLY ATTACHED. WI

I RECENTLY FINANCED A TRUCK AND THE SELLER DID NOT DISCLOSE THAT IT WAS A FLOOD DAMAGE VEHICLE. I DID AUTO CHECK AND FOUND OUT THERE WAS ALSO RECALLS ON THE TRUCK WHEN HE SOLD IT TO ME. THAT HE DIDN'T FIX RECALLS ARE FOR THE SEATBELTS N THE BOLTS FOR THE SEABELTS. THE TRUCK ALSO IS LEAKING OIL. HE ALSO TEMPERED WITH THE ENGINE LIGHTS BECAUSE IT'S LEAKING OIL BUT NO LIGHTS TURNED ON. I WANT A FULL REFUND OF EVERY DOLLAR I HAVE GIVEN HIM. HE ALSO LIED ON THE ODOMETER .

WHILE SITTING STATIONARY WITH THE VEHICLE RUNNING AND TALKING ON THE PHONE THE WINDOWS BEGAN FOGGING UP AND I TURNED ON THE FRONT AND REAR DEFROSTERS. I THEN DROVE ABOUT 5 MINUTES AND THEN STOPPED TO MAKE A TURN AND THE REAR DRIVER SIDE WINDOW SHATTERED AND GLASS FELL ONTO THE BACK SEAT PASSENGER.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 FORD F-150. THE CONTACT STATED WHILE VEHICLE WAS PARKED, A ROCK WAS THROWN THROUGH HIS WIND SHIELD HOWEVER THE GLASS DID NOT FRACTURE PROPERLY AND THERE WERE SHARDS EVERYWHERE IN THE INTERIOR. THE CONTACT WAS CONCERNED THAT IN THE EVENT OF AN ACCIDENT IT COULD HAVE RESULTED IN MAJOR INJURIES TO HIS EYES. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT OCCUPIED AT THE TIME OF THE INCIDENT. THE LOCAL DEALER WAS NOT CONTACTED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS CONTACTED WHO REFERRED CONTACT TO NHTSA. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 80,000. INVVALID VIN.

WHILE DRIVING ON A COUNTRY ROAD, THE TRUCK LOST ALL POWER AND SERVICE WRENCH CAME ON. I PULLED TO SIDE OF A 2 LANE RD AND COASTED TO A STOP. TURNED THE CR OFF AND ON AGAIN AND CODE WAS GONE. I DROVE FOR ABOUT 4 MINUTES AND THE TRUCK LOST POWER AGAIN. THIS REPEATED ABOUT 4 TIMES AS I WAS IN A MOUNTAIN AREA WITH NO CELL SERVICE. I HAD TO TO KEEP TRYING TO COAST AS FAR AS I COULD TO FIND SERVICE. FINALLY AFTER ABOUT AN HOUR OF STALLING ON THE SIDE OF THE ROAD, I WAS ABLE TO GET CELL SERVICE AND CONTACT HELP. AT 1AM WE GOT A TOW TO THE DEALER THAT JUST REPAIRED THE VEHICLE. THEY SAID THE PROBLEM WAS UNRELATED TO THE SERVICE JUST PERFORMED AND WE HAD A BAD THROTTLE BODY. THE ITEM WAS REPLACED.

SUDDEN LOSS OF FLUID CAUSING INABILITY TO STOP VEHICLE

UPON MOVING VEHICLE TO RAOD, LOW BRAKE FLUID LIGHT APPEARED. THERE WAS NO BRAKE PRESSURE AND BRAKE PEDAL WENT ALL THE WAY TO FLOOR. VEHICLE WOULD NOT STOP!. AFTER LOOKING UNDER HOOD, LITTLE TO NO BRAKE FLUID IN RESERVOIR. FILLED IT UP AND ATTEMPTED TO DRIVE. BRAKE PEDAL STILL VERY SOFT AND AFTER 1/4 MILE DRIVE, BRAKES HAD NO POWER AGAIN. NO LEAKING IS VISIBLE. LET VEHICLE SIT FOR TWO DAYS AFTER FILLING UP FLUID RESERVOIR AND IT IS NOW ALMOST COMPLETELY EMPTY.

WHEN TRYING TO ACCELERATE IN MY TRUCK ON THE HIGHWAY, I HAD A JERKING MOTION WITH REDUCTION IN SPEED. THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON SO I TOOK IT INTO A FORD DEALERSHIP. THEY SAID THE CODE P0016 REPRESENTS A TSB OUT ON ECOBOOST ENGINES FOR TIMING CHAIN STRETCHED. THE COST FOR ME TO FIX IS $4100. THI

MY TRUCK WILL DOWNSHIFT FROM 5TH GEAR TO 1ST GEAR WHILE OPERATING VEHICLE. I HAVE BEEN GOING AS FAST AS 50 MPH AND WITH OUT WARNING TRUCK WILL GO FROM 5TH TO 1ST GEAR. IT WILL CAUSE REAR WHEELS TO LOCK UP AND BECOMES HARD TO CONTROL. IT HAS BEEN GOING ON FOR ALMOST 2 YEARS NOW.

ON JULY 19, 2020 ~3:30P, I WAS TRAVELING ON CA 134 W TRANSITIONING TO CA 101 N. AS I APPLIED THE BRAKES THE PEDAL WENT STRAIGHT TO THE FLOOR WITH NO BRAKING EFFECT BEING INITIATED. VIGOROUSLY PUMPING THE BRAKES RESULTED IN VIRTUALLY NO BRAKING EFFECT. TURNING THE EMERGENCY FLASHERS ON, I THEN ALLOWED THE VEHICLE TO COAST TO A STOP ON THE SHOULDER OF THE CA 101 NORTH AND AWAITED FOR ROADSIDE ASSISTANCE. THERE WAS NO PREVIOUS BRAKING PERFORMANCE ISSUE, ANNUNCIATOR WARNING, OR ALARM OF ANY FORM TO SUGGEST A PENDING ISSUE. ONLY UPON THE ACTUAL FAILURE ITSELF DID A DISPLAY MESSAGE SHOW UP ON THE DASH. THAT MESSAGE READ SOMETHING LIKE "BRAKE FLUID LOW". AS I WAITED FOR ROADSIDE ASSISTANCE, I TOOK A MOMENT TO INSPECT THE AREA UNDER THE VEHICLE LOOKING FOR EVIDENCE OF ANY DRIPPING OR LEAKING FLUIDS. THERE WAS NONE AND THE VEHICLE WAS OTHERWISE WELL MAINTAINED WITH APPROXIMATELY 60,000 MILES ON IT. I CONTACTED AAA FOR AN EMERGENCY TOW. WHEN THE AAA FLATBED TRUCK ARRIVED, THE DRIVER, BILL, ASKED THE NATURE OF THE PROBLEM AND I INFORMED HIM IT WAS A VIRTUAL 100% BRAKE FAILURE. AFTER HE LOADED THE TRUCK ONTO THE FLAT BED, HE NOTED WITH SURPRISE THAT THE VEHICLE HAD INDEED LOST 100% OF ITS BRAKES. AAA TOWED THE VEHICLE TO THEIR NEAREST SERVICE CENTER LOCATED AT 5451 TUJUNGA AVE, NORTH HOLLYWOOD (LOS ANGELES), CA. WHEN THE THERE, DAN, THE TECHNICIAN/OWNER IN CHARGE, SPOKE WITH ME AFTER HIS INITIAL INSPECTION, HE WAS SURPRISED TO FIND THE VEHICLE HAD 100% BRAKE FAILURE WITH NO EVIDENCE OF A
