THE CONTACT TOOK THE VEHICLE TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC WHO STATED THAT THE ENTIRE STEERING RACK NEEDED TO BE REPLACED.

WHILE I WAS IN MOTION DRIVING TO WORK ON A COLD MORNING IN MY NEIGHBORHOOD, (7AM @ 5MPH) MY REAR WINDOW COMPLETELY SHATTERED ON ONE OF THE THREE PIECES THAT MAKE OP THE REAR WINDOW. IT HAS THE HEATING ELEMENT INTEGRATED WITHIN THE WINDOW AND I SUSPECT THIS DAMAGE WAS DUE TO A RAPID TEMPERATURE CHANGE. NO ONE WAS AROUND THE VEHICLE AT THE TIME OF INCIDENT EXCEPT FOR MYSELF.

THE SERVICE ADVANCETRAC AND HILL DESCENT CONTROL FAULT COME UP ON MY DASHBOARD AND MY POWER STEERING DOES NOT WORK. WHILE MOST VEHICLES CAN BE DRIVEN WITHOUT POWER STEERING BUT THIS TRUCK IS NOT DRIVABLE WITHOUT THAT FEATURE. THE LIGHTS AND BLINKERS DO NOT WORK. THESE FAULTS HAPPENED WHILE DRIVING AND I ALMOST LOST CONTROL OF MY VEHICLE AND CRASHED. I'M LUCKY I DIDN'T HIT AND KILL SOMEBODY. THIS IS A HUGE SAFETY ISSUE FOR WHICH AFFORD ALREADY KNOWS ABOUT BUT REFUSES TO FIX OUR TRUCK.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 FORD F-150. WHILE DRIVING, A POPPING NOISE WAS HEARD INSIDE THE VEHICLE MOMENTS AFTER THE REAR DEFROSTER WAS ACTIVATED.

TRUCK REAR WINDOW GLASS IS BREAKING WITH NO OBVIOUS CAUSE.

TRUCK PARKED IN DRIVEWAY. AFTER THE TRUCK WAS TURNED OFF IN PARK AND KEY REMOVED THE TRUCK STARTED TO ROLL BACK CAUSING INJURY TO MY WHEELCHAIR BOUND HUSBAND, BREAKING HIS ARM AND DRAGGING ME 15 FEET DOWN THE DRIVEWAY BEFORE COMING TO A STOP ACROSS THE STREET AT THE CURB

WHEN ACCELERATING THE TRANSMISSION HESITATES AND DROPS TO LOWER GEAR LOSES POWER

AT 0630 ON MARCH 24, 2019 I EXITED THE EXPRESS WAY AND WAS STOPPED AT A STOP LIGHT. WHEN THE LIGHT TURNED GREEN, I STARTED TO TURN RIGHT AND I HEARD A LOUD BANG. AS I WAS CHECKING MY MIRRORS I NOTICED MY REAR WINDOW HAD SHATTERED. THERE WERE NO OTHER CARS ON THE ROAD, AND I HAD NOT HIT ANYTHING. NOTHING STRUCK MY VEHICLE.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 FORD F-150. AFTER STARTING THE VEHICLE, THE POWER STEERING WARNING INDICATOR ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT TAKEN TO A DEALER FOR DIAGNOSTIC TESTING OR REPAIRS.

WHILE DRIVING ON AN INTERSTATE HIGHWAY USING CRUISE CONTROL, I NEEDED TO SLOW DOWN FOR AN EXIT. WHEN I APPLIED THE BRAKE PEDAL, THE CRUISE CONTROL DID NOT RELEASE AND I HAD TO APPLY QUITE A BIT OF BRAKE PRESSURE TO SLOW DOWN. I ALSO HIT THE OFF BUTTON FOR THE CRUISE CONTROL WHICH DID NOT DEACTIVATE THE CRUISE CONTROL. WHEN I BRAKED, THE SPEED WAS DECREASED BUT THE CRUISE CONTROL WAS STILL ON AT THE REDUCED SPEED. I KEPT HITTING THE OFF BUTTON, BUT THE CRUISE CONTROL WAS STILL IN OPERATION. AFTER DOING THIS FOR ABOUT TEN MINUTES, THE CRUISE CONTROL FINALLY DEACTIVATED. I USED THE CRUISE CONTROL LATER ON THIS TRIP TO TEST IT AND IT WORKED AS IT SHOULD. I TOOK THE TRUCK TO THE DEALERSHIP ON 3/6/19 AND WAS TOLD THEY WOULD CHECK IT FOR A CHARGE AND WOULD FIX IT FOR AN ADDITIONAL CHARGE; THAT CHARGE DEPENDING ON WHETHER IT WAS UNDER WARRANTY. I HAVE AN EXTENDED WARRANTY TO 100,000 MILES AND THE VEHICLE ONLY HAS A LITTLE OVER 20,000 MILES. I TOLD THE SERVICE MANAGER THAT IT WAS A SAFETY ISSUE. HE REPLIED THAT A BALD TIRE WAS A SAFETY ISSUE ALSO, MAKING THE POINT THAT THEY DID NOT INTEND TO TREAT THIS AS A SAFETY ISSUE WHERE A REPAIR WOULD BE DONE WITH NO CHARGE. HE PROFESSED IGNORANCE OF ANY VEHICLES HAVING A PROBLEM WITH THE CRUISE CONTROL NOT DEACTIVATING. I SHOWED HIM AN ARTICLE ON THE INTERNET WHERE FIAT CHRYSLER HAD SEVERAL MILLION VEHICLES RECALLED WITH THIS PROBLEM. HE STILL SAID HE HAD NEVER HEARD OF IT. THE DEALERSHIP SAID THEY COULD NOT FIND A PROBLEM, BUT IF IT DID IT AGA

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 FORD F-150. WHILE DRIVING, THERE WAS AN ABNORMAL FUEL ODOR IN THE VEHICLE. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO SILL-TERHAR MOTORS (LOCATED AT 150 ALTER ST, BROOMFIELD, CO 80020, (303) 469-1801) TO BE DIAGNOSED, BUT THE MECHANIC WAS UNABLE TO DUPLICATE THE FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 45,000.

THE POWER STEERING FAILS WITHOUT WARNING. AT TIMES IT REQUIRES 'MUSCLING' THE STEERING TO TURN OR STRAIGHTEN THE WHEELS AFTER A TURN. IT HAPPENS WHEN THE VEHICLE IS IN MOTION ON CITY STREETS, HIGHWAY AND TURNING. THERE ARE A LOT OF OTHER FORD F-150 TRUCK OWNERS HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM AS REPORTED ON DIFFERENT SITES. THIS IS A SERIOUS SAFETY CONCERN AS IT CAUSES THE DRIVER TO POTENTIALLY LOSE CONTROL OF THE VEHICLE B/C IT'S UNPREDICTABLE. IT'S VERY EXPENSIVE TO HAVE 'FIXED' IF THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT EVEN KNOWS WHAT TO DO OR THE REPAIR FAILS! THERE HAVE BEEN RECALLS ON THIS PROBLEM BUT ONLY IN A VERY LIMITED DATE RANGE. ALSO THE POWER STEERING SEEMS TO BE FAILING ON OTHER FORD VEHICLES, AS EVEN REPORTED TO NHTSA. IMAGINE LOSING STEERING WHILE TRAVELING ON I-80 (ESP IN PA) OR NEGOTIATING A TURN. PLEASE INVESTIGATE!!!!

WHILE SITTING IN A PARKING LOT WITH NO OTHER VEHICLES ANYWHERE NEAR ME, MY REAR WINDOW SHATTERED. IT REMAINED INTACT AND IN PLACE BUT EVERY INCH OF IT IS SPIDERWEBBED.

TURNED ON THE REAR WINDOW DEFROSTER ON A VERY COLD MORNING AND AFTER ABOUT TEN MINUTES WHILE DRIVING, THE REAR WINDOW LOUDLY SHATTERED ALMOST CAUSING AN ACCIDENT

POWER STEERING IS ONLY WORKING INTERMITTENTLY. THERE WAS A RECALL ON THE MODEL YEAR, BUT MY TRUCK WAS NOT INCLUDED. I SEE SEVERAL ONLINE COMPLAINTS ABOUT THIS FROM OTHER OWNERS THAT WEREN'T IN THE RECALL. I LIVE IN A MOUNTAINOUS TERRAIN WITH WINDY ROADS AND IF THE POWER STEERING QUITS WHEN ZI DON'T EXPECT IT, I WILL VEER OFF THE ROAD AND HAVE TO JERK IT BACK ON.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 FORD F-150. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE RECALL REPAIR FOR NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 17V420000 (SEAT BELTS) EXCEEDED A REASONABLE AMOUNT OF TIME FOR REPAIR.

VIN TOOL CONFIRMS PARTS NOT AVAILABLE.

REAR WINDOW SHATTERED, DEFROSTER WAS ON FOR APPROX. 15 MINUTES AND SHUT OFF AS I GOT IN. AS I STARTED TO DRIVE AWAY, A LOUD POW AND THE DRIVER SIDE OF THE GLASS WAS SHATTERED.

FROZEN DOOR LATCH

SITTING IN A PARKING LOT WITH REAR DEFROSTER ON, WITH BLOWING SNOW AND APPROXIMATELY 38 DEGREES OUT SIDE LEFT REAR WINDOW IN 3 PIECE SLIDER EXPLODED. HEARD A LOUD POP AFTER LOOKING FOUND WINDOW SPIDERWEBBED THE TINT ONLY THING HOLDING IT TOGETHER.

I WAS DRIVING TO WORK ON A FAIRLY COLD MORNING IN FEBRUARY 2019 AND MY REAR DEFROST WAS OFF AND I WENT TO TURN IT ON, I PRESSED THE CONTROL BUTTON ONCE AND IT DIDN'T COME ON AND AS I WENT TO PRESS IT AGAIN I HEARD A LOUD POP. WHEN I LOOKED BACK I NOTICED THE DRIVERS SIDE OF MY REAR GLASS WAS SHATTERED. I WAS ALMOST TO OUR SHOP AND WASN'T GOING BUT ABOUT 45 MPH AND THERE WAS NOTHING OR NOBODY AROUND THAT COULD HAVE CAUSED THIS.

I WAS BACKING OUT OF A PARKING SPOT ON SUNDAY, MARCH 10TH, AT 930AM, AND AT LESS THAN 5 MPH, BY REAR WINDOW BEHIND THE DRIVER SIDE SEAT CRACKED AND SPIDER-ED ALL ACROSS.

WHEN PUSHING ON BRAKES AFTER STOPPING, THE PEDAL BECOMES SOFT AND GOES FARTHER DOWN. THIS HAS HAPPENED SEVERAL TIMES WHEN STOPPING AT A TRAFFIC LIGHT, STOP SIGN, AND TRYING TO PARK ON DRIVEWAY.

MY REAR WINDOW HAS SPONTANEOUSLY SHATTERED TWICE IN THE LAST FOURTY DAYS. I'VE TIED THE ISSUE BACK TO THE REAR WINDOW DEFROSTER BEING ACTIVATED WHEN THE REMOTE START IS USED WHICH CREATES AN EXTREME TEMPERATURE DIFFERENTIAL BETWEEN THE AIR INSIDE THE VEHICLE VERSUS OUTSIDE THE VEHICLE. FORD DOES NOT ACKNOWLEDGE THE ISSUE, HOWEVER IT SEEMS TO BE COMMON ISSUE I HAVE DONE SOME RESEARCH. THIS OCCURRED ON 1/21/2019 AND AGAIN ON 2/27/2019

ELECTRIC POWER STEERING FAILURE

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 FORD F-150. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE VEHICLE WOULD CRANK, BUT NOT START. THE CONTACT REFERENCED AN UNKNOWN TECHNICAL SERVICE BULLETIN (TSB) REGARDING A FUSE BURNING OUT THAT NEEDED TO BE RELOCATED. THE TSB ALSO INDICATED THAT THE FUSE SHOULD BE COVERED BY A FORD WARRANTY.

THE BOLTS THAT HOLD THE FRONT BRAKE CALIPER MOUNTING BRACKETS TO THE FRONT SPINDLE ON BOTH SIDES OF THE TRUCK WILL COME OUT ON YOU, AND IT CAUSES THE CALIPER, AND THE CALIPER MOUNTING BRACKET TO COME OFF ON YOU.IN MY CASE, IT CAME COMPLETELY OFF ONCE WHILE BACKING UP, AND THE OTHER SIDE CAME COMPLETELY OFF WHILE DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD. I STILL HAD SOMEWHAT BACK BRAKES LEFT TO GET STOPPED. HOWEVER, IT SOUNDED LIKE THE WHOLE FRONT END WAS COMING OUT OF IT. I HONESTLY THOUGHT THE 4 WHEEL DRIVE TRANSFER CASE AND TRANSMISSION WAS FALLING OUT OF IT, DUE TO THE NOISE IT MADE, AND THE JERKING, JUMPING AND WOBBLING IT DONE WHEN IT CAME LOOSE. HAD I OF BEEN IN RUSH HOUR TRAFFIC ON THE FREEWAY, IT WOULD HAVE CAUSED A WRECK IF I WOULD HAVE HAD TO STOP QUICKLY. I WAS LUCKY ONE COME OFF WHILE BACKING OUT OF MY DRIVEWAY, AND THE OTHER CAME OFF DRIVING IN MY NEIGHBORHOOD GOING 20 MPH. THIS WAS A SCARY SITUATION DUE TO IT BEING A SUDDEN EVENT, WITH NO WARNING WHAT SO EVER EACH TIME IT DONE IT. I NEVER WOULD HAVE THOUGHT A NEW TRUCK WOULD HAVE A PROBLEM SUCH AS THIS, BECAUSE IT IS BASICALLY THE BRAKES FALLING OFF OF IT.
