2015 Ford F-150 complaints

VEHICLE ACCELERATED OF ITS OWN ACCORD DRIVING STRAIGHT ON HIGHWAY. TOOK TO DEALER (VILLAGE FORD, OCALA, FL), THEY RAN BLACK BOX AND DID WARRANTY WORK. A FEW WEEKS LATER, VEHICLE ACCELERATED AGAIN OF ITS OWN ACCORD WHILE ATTEMPTING TO SLOW DOWN TO MAKE A LEFT TURN. VEHICLE COLLIDED INTO A TREE.

WHILE TURNING MY STEERING WHEEL ALONG A CURVE ON A STATE HIGHWAY GOING APPROXIMATELY 40 TO 55 MPH, THE WHEEL HAS TO BE RESET TO THE CENTER. ON YOUTUBE A VIDEO BY CHRIS PETERSON, CALLED "STEERING ISSUE IN 2016 F150 PULLING TO LEFT" IS IDENTICAL TO MY PROBLEM. BELOW UNDER DOCUMENT I DOWNLOADED THE HYPERLINK FROM YOUTUBE. THIS PROBLEM CONTINUES TO HAPPEN, I FIRST NOTICED IT THIS PAST SPRING.

WHILE DRIVING OUR 2015 FORD F-150 LARIAT SUPERCREW ON A TRIP FROM OHIO TO FLORIDA ON INTERSTATE I-77 WE WERE TOWING A 14 FOOT ENCLOSED TRAILER. MY WIFE AND I STOPPED FOR THE NIGHT AFTER APPROXIMATELY 550 MILES AND I MADE SURE THE TRUCK WAS SECURE. IN THE MORNING I WALKED AROUND THE TRAILER AND THE TRUCK TO BE SURE EVERYTHING WAS OKAY AND IT WAS BEFORE CONTINUING OUR DRIVE. WE WERE JUST NORTH OF CHARLOTTE, NC AND THERE HAS BEEN A LOT OF NEW ROAD CONSTRUCTION AS WE CONTINUED SOUTH WITH ROUGH BUMPY AREAS, CHANGING ROAD LANES AND JUST A LOT OF TWISTING SECTIONS. AFTER 2 HOURS AND SOUTH OF CHARLOTTE WE STOPPED FOR FUEL. I THEN SAW THAT THE TAILGATE WAS DOWN. I WAS SHOCKED AS I LOOKED AND WAS GLAD WE HAD NOT LOST ANY ITEMS ON THE ROAD, WE COULD HAVE KILLED SOMEONE. THE TAILGATE RECEIVED DAMAGE BECAUSE AS THE TWISTING AND REQUIRED LANE CHANGES HAPPENED THE TRAILERS FRONT TONGUE WHEEL SUPPORT POST WAS JAMMING AGAINST THE DROPPED TAILGATE. WE FEEL SO FORTUNATE TO HAVE NOT LOST THE HEAVY ITEMS IN THE TRUCK THAT COULD HAVE MADE US RESPONSIBLE FOR A SEVER ACCIDENT. I TOOK THE TRUCK TO THE FORD DEALER IN MOUNT DORA, FL AND WAS TOLD THE RECALL CURRENTLY IS FOR JUST THE F-250 & F-350 MODELS WITH THE POWER TAILGATE. THEY "RAN" MY VIN NUMBER AND TOLD ME THIS TRUCK IS NOT IN THE SAME RECALL. EVEN THOUGH THE F-150 "LARIAT" UPGRADE MODEL HAS THE SAME POWER TAILGATE AS THE TWO IN THE RECALL. PLEASE HELP AND REQUIRE THE JUSTIFIED RECALL TO BE SPECIFIC TO NOT JUST THE VEHICLE VIN OR MODEL NUMBERS B

ADVANCE TRAC MALFUNCTION

I WAS PARKED IN A SAGE BRUSH FIELD, WARMING UP IN MY TRUCK. I TURNED IT OFF AND OPENED THE DOOR TO GET OUT. THIS IS WHEN I NOTICED MY ELECTRONIC RUNNING BOARDS DIDN'T EXTEND. SO I SITUATED MYSELF BACK IN THE DRIVERS SEAT AND REALIZED THE RADIO WAS STILL PLAYING. (IT IS SUPPOSE TO TURN OFF WHEN I OPEN THE DOOR AND THE TRUCK IS OFF) I STARTED THE TRUCK AND FOUND I HAD NO DASHBOARD LIGHTS, GAUGES WERE OFF, LOCKS WOULD NOT WORK IN THE FRONT. I HAD ONLY RADIO ( VOLUME CONTROL DIDN'T WORK) AND FLASHERS. I DROVE THE FEW MILES TO MY DEALER. AFTER CALLING SOMEONE. THEY TOLD ME THEY DID A HARD REBOOT OF THE SYSTEM. EVERYTHING CAME BACK ON AND I NOTICED IT WAS A FEW DAYS BEFORE EVERYTHING READJUSTED TO READ CORRECTLY. I WAS TOLD TO COME BACK IF I HAD MORE PROBLEMS. THEY HAD A LIST OF FAULTS THAT SHOWED ON THE COMPUTER WHEN THEY PLUGGED IT IN. THE CODES: BCM, FCIM, MS1-CAN,HS2-CAN,HS3-CAN,U0137 SAID TBM COULDN'T COMMUNICATE WITH BCM. FINAL STATEMENT ON CAUSE: EXCESSIVE NETWORK TRAFFIC ON THE CONTROLLER AREA NETWORK (CAN) BUS CAUSING THE FCIM TO LOCK UP. I HAVE THE WORK ORDER IF NEEDED.

INTERMITTENT GRINDING NOISE FROM INTEGRATED WHEEL ENDS AND MULTIPLE REPLACEMENTS OF WHEEL HUBS THAT HAVE FAILED TO PERMANENTLY FIX THE PROBLEM. THE TRUCK HAS BEEN SERVICED ON 09-20-18 AND DIAGNOSED AS A FAILED 4X4 CHECK VALVE. THE PROBLEM WAS NOT FIXED AND RETURNED TO THE SHOP ON 10-16-18 WHERE THE PROBLEM WAS DIAGNOSED AS FAILED WHEEL BEARINGS/HUB ASSEMBLY. THE PROBLEM WAS TEMPORARILY FIXED UNTIL IT RETURNED AGAIN AND TRUCK RETURNED TO SHOP ON 03-22-2019. THE SHOP AGAIN REPLACED THE WHEEL BEARINGS/HUB ASSEMBLY. THE PROBLEM WAS TEMPORARILY RESOLVED AGAIN UNTIL THE FRONT END NOISE RETURNED AGAIN IN NOVEMBER 2019. THE TRUCK IS SCHEDULED FOR THE SAME SERVICE ON 12-11-2019.

ELECTRIC REAR TAILGATE FALLS DOWN RANDOMLY WHILE DRIVING AT SPEED OR EVEN WHILE PARKED. TAILGATE HAS FALLEN 5-6 TIMES WHILE TRUCK IS PARKED IN LAST FEW MONTHS AND ALSO 5+ TIMES WHILE CAR IS DRIVING. IT HAS FALLEN WHILE TRUCK WAS IN REVERSE, AND WHILE TRUCK WAS TRAVELING ON COUNTRY ROADS AT SPEEDS OF ~40MPH. PLEASE NOTE - THIS ISSUE SEEMS IDENTICAL TO THE ONE FORD JUST ANNOUNCED A RECALL FOR ON THE 2017-2019 F-250 SUPERDUTY TRUCKS. IT MUST BE RELATED. OUR TRUCK WAS IN THE SHOP JUST LAST WEEK BEFORE THIS RECALL WAS ANNOUNCED. THIS TRUCK SHOULD BE INCLUDED IN THE RECALL THE TAILGATE MOST RECENTLY FELL 11/28/19

DRIVING DOWN THE STREET FROM MY HOUSE & HEARD A LOUD NOISE THE REAR WINDOW SHATTERED

ALL FOUR DOORS FREEZE SHUT AND CANNOT BE OPENED. AT ONE POINT I WAS ABLE TO YANK OPEN THE DRIVER DOOR BUT IT WOULD NOT LATCH SHUT. I BROUGHT TO FORD LAST WINTER FOR RECALL FIX AND THEY SUPPOSEDLY ACCOMPLISHED IT.

BRAKE FLUID IS LEAKING. I WAS DRIVING AND ALL OF A SUDDEN MY BRAKES WENT ALL THE WAY TO THE FLOOR AND I NEARLY LOST CONTROL OF THE VEHICLE. I ALSO GOT A NOTICE OF LOW BRAKE FLUID, SO I PUT SOME IN AND A FEW DAYS LATER IT WAS LOW AGAIN. I NOTICED THAT IT IS LEAKING OUT ONTO OTHER PARTS UNDER MY HOOD.

DOOR LATCH FREEZES - ALL DOORS - WON'T SECURE UNTIL IT IS WARM ENOUGH AGAIN TO WORK ABOUT 34 DEGREES - SOMETIMES IT APPEARS TO SEEM LOCKED ONLY TO OPEN AS YOU GO AROUND A CORNER.

TRUCK HIT A UTILITY POLE IN THE MEDIAN WHILE TRAVELING WEST ON BARBARA JORDAN BLVD AT LANCASTER DR. IT SPUN AROUND, AND LANDED ON THE EAST BOUND SIDE OF BARBARA JORDAN BLVD AT LANCASTER DR. THE AIRBAGS NEVER DEPLOYED.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 FORD F-150. WHILE DRIVING 65 MPH AND ATTEMPTING TO SLOW DOWN, THE BRAKES MALFUNCTIONED AND THE BRAKE PEDAL TRAVELED TO THE FLOORBOARD. THE CONTACT RELEASED THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL AND MERGED OVER TO THE MEDIAN OF THE ROAD. THE CONTACT PUMPED THE BRAKE PEDAL SEVERAL TIMES, BUT IT TRAVELED TO THE FLOORBOARD AGAIN. THE VEHICLE EVENTUALLY SLOWED DOWN TO A STOP. WHEN THE CONTACT TURNED OFF AND RESTARTED THE VEHICLE, THE LOW BRAKE FLUID MESSAGE APPEARED. THE CONTACT SLOWLY DROVE TO AN AUTO STORE TO PURCHASE MORE BRAKE FLUID, BUT THE FAILURE RECURRED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO BILL KNIGHT FORD (9607 S MEMORIAL DR, TULSA, OK 74133, (888) 464-2411) WHERE IT WAS IN THE PROCESS OF BEING DIAGNOSED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 160,000.

AS I WAS DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY, I GOT A WARNING ON MY DASH SAYING THE BRAKE FLUID LEVEL WAS LOW, ACCOMPANIED BY THE BRAKE LIGHT ILLUMINATING ON THE DASH. AS I WENT TO PULL OVER TO A SAFE LOCATION, THE BRAKE PEDAL WENT ALL THE WAY TO THE FLOOR WHEN I PRESSED THE PEDAL. AT THIS POINT I HAD NO POWER FROM MY BRAKES, HAVING TO STOP BY DOWNSHIFTING AND USING THE EMERGENCY BRAKE. UPON INSPECTION THERE WAS A VERY SMALL AMOUNT OF BRAKE FLUID IN THE RESERVOIR AND NO VISIBLE SIGNS OF A LEAK OR BROKEN BRAKE LINES. I PURCHASED BRAKE FLUID AND REFILLED THE RESERVOIR. WITHIN 2 MILES THE WARNING ILLUMINATE AGAIN WITH THE BRAKE PEDAL GOING TO THE FLOOR. I HAD TO HAVE MY TRUCK TOWED TO THE DEALERSHIP FOR REPAIRS AFTER THIS INCIDENT.

MY F150 WAS STARTED AND THE MAX DEFROST WAS ON. WHILE STANDING NEXT TO THE VEHICLE, THE REAR GLASS WINDOW SHATTERED WITHOUT CAUSE. A BURNING SMELL WAS NOTICED, BUT I ASSUMED IT WAS COMING FROM SOMEWHERE OTHER THAN MY TRUCK. THE VEHICLE WAS PARKED AND I WAS STANDING NEAR THE VEHICLE. IT IS NOT A POSSIBILITY THAT SOMETHING STRUCK THE REAR GLASS, IT IS AN APPARENT MALFUNCTION OR DEFECT. I CONTACTED FOR CUSTOMER RELATIONS AND WAS COMPLETELY DISAPPOINTED WITH THE SERVICE.

DRIVING ON AN INTERSTATE 75 MPH WHEN THE HILLSIDE ASSIST LIGHT TURNED ON THE DASH ALONG WITH OTHER WARNING LIGHTS AND IMMEDIATELY LOST ALL POWER TO THE ENGINE REQUIRING A PULL OFF TO SHOULDER. SHUT OFF THE ENGINE AND RESTARTED WITH NO PROBLEM, ACCELERATED BACK TO SPEED AND WITHIN A FEW MILES THE LIGHT CAME ON AGAIN AND LOST ALL POWER. THIS HAPPENED SEVERAL MORE TIMES WHILE ATTEMPTING TO LOCATE A LOCAL FORD DEALER. WHILE WAITING AT THE DEALER I SEARCHED ONLINE AND FOUND NUMEROUS OTHERS HAVE EXPERIENCED THE SAME ISSUE ATTRIBUTED TO A DEFECTIVE THROTTLE BODY (SEE ATTACHED SCREENSHOT). AFTER BRINGING UP THE FREQUENCY OF THIS ISSUE WITH THE DEALER, I WAS TOLD THERE IS A TSB FROM FORD BUT NO ECONOMIC RELIEF FOR THE $675 BILL SINCE THERE WAS NOT A RECALL. THE DEALER STATED THERE WAS NOT A RECALL BECAUSE THIS IS NOT A SAFETY ISSUE. I RESPONDED THAT DRIVING 75MPH ON A BUSY URBAN INTERSTATE, LOSING ALL POWER, AND BEING FORCED TO FIND A SHOULDER IMMEDIATELY IS A SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUE AS ONE FRANTICALLY TRIES TO FIGURE OUT WHAT IS HAPPENING AND SEARCHING FOR A WAY OUT OF TRAFFIC.

WHILE DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY AT MULTIPLE SPEEDS THE STEERING WHEEL SEEM LOCKED AND WOULD NOT TURN UNTIL I WOULD RELEASE PRESSURE FROM THE CURRENT POSITION AND THEN ATTEMPT TO TURN THE WHEEL AGAIN. THIS HAS HAPPENED NUMEROUS TIMES, ON AND OFF THE HIGHWAY AND AT ALL SPEEDS.

I WAS DRIVING MY 2015 F150, TOWING A TRAILER OF AROUND 7000 LBS. ALL OF THE SUDDEN MY TRUCK SAID 'LOW BRAKE FLUID' AND THE PEDAL WENT STRAIGHT TO THE FLOOR. THIS HAPPENED ON A HIGHWAY. THIS TURNED OUT TO BE THE SAME PROBLEM THAT FORD RECALLED IN THE 13-14 MODELS. THE MASTER CYLINDER LEAKS INTO THE BRAKE BOOSTER, LEAVING NO TRACE OF LEAKING BRAKE FLUID, AND THEREFORE YOU WILL NOT KNOW UNTIL IT IS TOO LATE.

THE REMOTE START WAS ON FOR 5 MINUTES, WE GOT IN THE CAR AND THE ENTIRE BACK WINDSHIELD WAS SHATTERRING. THERE WAS NO PRIOR DAMAGE TO THE BACK WINDSHIELD, NO ISSUES EVER. WE LOOKED ON THE OUTSIDE AND IT WAS SHATTERING FROM THE EDGES AND SLOWLY STARTED CRACKING TO PIECES BEFORE OUR EYES. IF WE WOULD HAVE BEEN DRIVING THIS WOULD HAVE BEEN A HUGE SAFETY CONCERN ESPECIALLY WITH CHILDREN IN THE BACK SEAT.

THE VCT SOLENOID HAS BEEN LISTED AS A PROBLEM ON A LARGE NUMBER OF FORD ENGINES BUT FORD WILL NOT RECALL. THE ISSUE CAUSES THE ENGINE TO DROP IN IDLE AND STALL. MY MECHANIC SAID HE HAS CHANGED HUNDREDS IN FORD ENGINES. THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE WHEN A VEHICLE STALLS WITHOUT WANING

VISTA ROOF HANGS UP WHEN TRYING TO OPEN AND CLOSE. DIAGNOSIS WAS TO REPLACE BOTH LEFT AND RIGHT SLIDING GLASS BRACKETS AND REINITIALIZE SUNROOF MOTORS AND RETEST SLIDING GLASS OPERATION. THE VEHICLE WAS STATIONARY WHEN THE BINDING OCCURRED. I HAD THE SAME PROBLEM OCCUR AT 52,622 MILES ON 10/31/2019. MY ROOF IS BOUND UP JUST LIKE THE ORIGINAL OCCURRENCE. THE VEHICLE WAS SITTING STATIONARY IN MY GARAGE AT THE TIME.

8/5/2016 THE VEHICLE WAS ORIGINALLY TAKEN IN FOR A LOUD GRINDING NOISE COMING FROM THE DRIVE TRAIN. THE PROBLEM WAS INTERMITTENT AND THE DEALER SAID THEY COULDN'T REPRODUCE THE PROBLEM AND REFLASHED THE COMPUTER. THE VEHICLE WAS AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS AND IT OCCURRED WHEN IT WAS HUNTING FOR GEARS AS I PASSED SOMEONE. 5/22/2017 THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN BACK TO THE DEALER FOR THE SAME PROBLEM WITH A GRIND NOISE COMING FROM THE DRIVETRAIN. I TOLD THE DEALER IT SOUNDED LIKE CARDS IN THE SPOKES OF A BICYCLE. THEY TRIED TO REFLASH THE COMPUTER AND THE TRUCK MADE THE SAME NOISE AS SOON AS I DROVE AWAY FROM THEIR LOT. I TOOK IT RIGHT BACK AND TOLD THEM THAT IT WAS NOT FIXED AND I WANTED THEM TO KEEP IT UNTIL IT WAS FIXED. THE VEHICLE WAS AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS AND IT OCCURRED WHEN IT WAS HUNTING FOR GEARS AS I PASSED SOMEONE. I PICKED THE VEHICLE UP APPROXIMATELY TWO WEEKS LATER AND WAS TOLD THAT THE ENTIRE OVERDRIVE UNIT IN THE TRANSMISSION HAD TO BE REBUILT. THE TRUCK ONLY HAD 20,067 MILES AT THIS POINT. 9/23/2019 I CALLED THE DEALERSHIP AND TOLD THEM THAT THE NOISE HAD RETURNED AT THAT THIS WOULD MAKE THE FOURTH TIME IT NEEDED TO BE ADDRESSED. THEY TOLD ME THAT THE POWER TRAIN WARRANTY COVERED ANY REPAIRS FOR THIS UP TILL 60,000 MILES. I WILL SCHEDULE A TIME TO DROP THE TRUCK FOR A CHECK AS SOON AS I CAN. THE TRUCK HAS 52,622.3 MILES AS OF 10/31/2019. THE TRUCK ONLY MAKES THE NOISE AT ODD INTERVALS WHEN IT IS BETWEEN GEARS OR PASSING SOMEONE.

FOR YEARS FORD HAS HAD A PROBLEM WITH THE HEAT/AC IN THEIR PICKUPS. THE HEAT WILL STOP ON THE PASSENGER SIDE AND WILL BLOW NOTHING BUT COLD AIR. THIS IS THE SECOND F-150 THAT I HAVE HAD WITH THIS PROBLEM. IT IS CAUSED BY A FAULTY BLEND DOOR ACTUATOR. INSTEAD OF FORD CORRECTING THE PROBLEM BY DESIGNING A NEW ACTUATOR, THEY CONTINUE TO REPLACE THE DEFECTIVE PART WITH THE SAME PART THAT WILL EVENTUALLY FAIL. THIS IS EXTREMELY DANGEROUS FOR OLDER PEOPLE OR THOSE WITH YOUNG CHILDREN. THERE ARE NUMEROUS COMPLAINTS ON THE VARIOUS INTERNET HELP PAGES. FORD IS MAKING A LOT OF MONEY REPLACING THIS SECOND RATE PART BECAUSE THE COMPLETE DASH HAS TO BE REMOVED JUST TO REPLACE THE ACTUATOR. IT IS VERY EXPENSIVE AND SOME, SUCH AS ME, CANNOT AFFORD TP PAY SOMEWHERE IN THE NEIGHBORHOOD OF $1,000 FOR THIS REPAIR JUST TO HAVE THE NEW PART FAIL.

I HAVE A SMALL HOLE IN THE EXHAUST SYSTEM BETWEEN THE ENGINE AND CATALYTIC CONVERTERS. CRESCENT FORD TRUCKS, THE DEALER I PURCHASED THE VEHICLE FROM, SAID THAT THE HOLE IN THE EXHAUST SYSTEM WAS THERE BY DESIGN TO DRAIN WATER. I CANNOT BELIEVE THAT THE EPA WOULD BE HAPPY WITH A HOLE FROM WHICH EXHAUST GASES CAN ESCAPE BEFORE THEY ARE TREATED BY THE CATALYTIC CONVERTER. HOPEFULLY I AM REPORTING THIS TO THE RIGHT AGENCY

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 FORD F-150. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE BRAKE PEDAL TRAVELED TO THE FLOORBOARD DID NOT STOP THE VEHICLE IMMEDIATELY WHEN IT WAS DEPRESSED. THERE WAS NO WARNING INDICATOR ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC, BUT THE CAUSE OF THE FAILURE WAS NOT DETERMINED. THE DEALER AND MANUFACTURER WERE NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 134,000.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 FORD F-150. WHEN THE BRAKE PEDAL WAS ENGAGED AT LOW SPEEDS AROUND 5 MPH, A METAL TO METAL RUBBING NOISE WAS HEARD AND THE STEERING WHEEL VIBRATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO BRIGHTON FORD (190 WEST BROMLEY LANE, BRIGHTON, CO 80601, (303) 800-3235) WHERE THEY TEST DROVE THE VEHICLE AND DUPLICATED THE FAILURE. THE DEALER STATED THAT THE NOISE WAS NORMAL AND THERE WAS NO FAILURE WITH THE BRAKES. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS CONTACTED. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 26,000.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 FORD F-150. WHILE DRIVING 65-70 MPH, THE BRAKES ACTIVATED INDEPENDENTLY WITHOUT WARNING. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE FAILURE RECURRED TWICE. RAPIDS FORD LINCOLN (4330 8TH ST S #100, WISCONSIN RAPIDS, WI 54494, (715) 422-0000) AND THE MANUFACTURER WERE INFORMED OF THE FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT INCLUDED IN NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 15V614000 (FORWARD COLLISION AVOIDANCE). THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 25,000.

THE TRUCK WAS RUNNING FOR ABOUT 15 MINUTES. WE WERE GOING DOWN A MAJOR HIGHWAY IN ONE OF THE PASSING LANES AT APPROXIMATELY 70MPH THEN WITHOUT ANY WARNING POWER WAS LOST. ON THE DISPLAY TRAC STABILITY CAME ON THEN CYCLED THRU HILL ASSIST AND SEVERAL OTHERS. I DRIFTED OF THE ROAD JUST PAST A EXIT. THE ENGINE FELT LIKE IT WAS MISSING TERRIBLY AS IT CYCLING THRU THESE ERRORS. I SHUT IT DOWN AND RESTARTED IT SEEMED OK, BUT CHECK ENGINE LIGHT STILL ON, WHEN I TRIED TO MOVE IT STARTED TO SHAKE AND CYCLE ERRORS AGAIN. I SHUT IT DOWN AGAIN AND RESTARTED THIS TIME IT WAS RUNNING OK. THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT WAS STILL ON AND WE DROVE WITH THECHECK EGINE LIGHT FOR APPROXIMATELY 400 MILES STOPPING AND SHUTING OFF ENGINE SEVERAL TIMES.LIGHT STILL ON. STOPPED FOR 1 HOUR TO EAT WHEN RESTARTING NO CHECK ENGINE LIGHT ON AND HAS BEEN WORKING AS NORMAL TODAY.

DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD TODAY BEING MINDFUL OF THE SPEED LIMIT SINCE I JUST GOT A SPEEDING TICKET TWO WEEKS PRIOR. I LOOKED AT THE SPEEDOMETER AND IT READ 62. I KNOW THE DIFFERENCE I SPEED VARIATION JUST FROM DRIVER FEELING AND EXPERIENCE. WELL I APPLIED THE BRAKES AND THE SPEEDOMETER DID NOT MOVE. WHEN I REACHED MY DESTINATION I PUT THE CAR IN PARK AND NOTICED MY SPEEDOMETER WAS FROZEN AT 40 MPH. SO NOW ACCORDING TO THE TRUCKS BRAIN 40 MPH = 0 MPH

ON 10/18/19 AT 7:20 AM I STARTED MY 2015 F150 WITH 27K MILES VIA THE AUTOSTART SYSTEM AS THE OUTSIDE TEMPERATURE WAS AROUND 35F AND THERE WAS FRONT ON THE GLASS. MY TRUCK WAS IN MY DRIVEWAY, FACING NORTH TOWARDS THE STREET. WHEN I APPROACHED MY TRUCK AFTER IN N FOR UNDER 5 MINUTES I COULD SMELL A BURNING ODOR. I OPENED THE TRUCK AND THE SMELL WAS STRONGER. WHEN I LOOK AROUND I SAW THAT THE REAR WINDOW WAS COMPLETELY SHATTERED WITH A HOLE WHERE A SECTION FELL INTO THE BED. I CONTACTED MY FORD DEALER AND THE SERVICE TECH STATED HE NEVER HEARD OF THIS AND THEY COULD REPLACE IT FOR APPROX. $1400.00.

2015 FORD F-150. CONSUMER WRITES IN REGARD TO FAULTY EVAP BLOCKING VALVE AND REQUEST AN INVESTIGATION ON DEFECT PART IN VEHICLE MODEL. *AS *JS *JS

I BOUGHT THIS TRUCK BRAND NEW FROM THE DEALER 8-2015. AS OF AUGUST 1, 2019 THE TRUCK STATED VIBRATING BETWEEN 50 MPH AND 75 MPH WHILE DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAYS. I AM GETTING A VIBRATION FROM WHAT APPEARS TO BE MY DRIVE AXLE. IT IS MOST PROMINENT WHEN LETTING OFF THE THROTTLE AND COASTING FROM 75 MPH TO 50 MPH. YOU CAN FEEL IT IN THE STEERING WHEEL AND YOU CAN ALSO HEAR IT.

THE REAR SLIDING WINDOW BOND HAS LOST ITS ADHESIVE. WHILE DRIVING THE WINDOW STARTED TO BLOW IN CAUSING THE DEBRIS TO BLOW INTO MY CAB. FORD HAS NOT DONE ANYTHING TO REMEDY MY COMPLAINT.

WITH NO NOTICE OR WARNING WHILE DRIVING ON FREEWAY PULLING HORSE TRAILER AT 65 MPH ENGINE SHUT DOWN AND WOULD NOT RESTART. HILL ASSIST LIGHT CAME ON ALONG WITH SKID ANTI-SWAY MOTION AND A WRENCH APPEARED IN THE INDICATOR LIGHT. STEERING WHEEL BECAME HARD TO MOVE. HAD TO CROSS THREE LANES OF TRAFFIC TO GET TO SIDE OF ROAD IN A CONSTRUCTION ZONE WHILE GOING UPHILL TOWING A HORSE TRAILER EVENTUALLY RESTARTED

THE FACTORY/ DEALER INSTALLED TOW BRAKE CONTROLLER DOES NOT APPLY ENOUGH BRAKE POWER TO STOP TRAILER. WHEN TOWING MY 5TH WHEEL(10000LBS)IT WORKS FINE WHEN I MANUALLY APPLY THE OVERRIDE BUTTON BUT WHEN I APPLY THE BRAKE PEDAL THE TRAILER BRAKES DON'T GET THE COMMAND TO ENGAGE WITH ENOUGH POWER TO STOP TRAILER, MY TRUCK IS DOING ALMOST ALL OF THE BRAKING. I HAVE READ ONLINE WHERE MANY FORD F 150 OWNERS ARE HAVING SIMILAR ISSUES. FORD SAYS THERE IS NOTHING WRONG. I HAVE BEEN TOWING USING THE MANUAL OVERRIDE SWITCH OR LEARNING TO SLAM ON THE BRAKES TO STOP. THE TRAILER BRAKES DO WORK ALMOST WHEN I SLAM ON THE BRAKE PEDAL. I AM SURE THAT THIS SHOULDN'T BE HAPPENING BECAUSE IT'S NOT SAFE.

SERVICE ADVANCE TRAC LIGHT CAME ON WHILE DRIVING AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS. COMPLETE LOSS OF POWER BUT ENGINE WAS STILL RUNNING AT A VERY ROUGH IDLE. ZERO THROTTLE RESPONSE. THIS HAPPENED WHILE PULLING A 30 FT CAMPER IN DOWNTOWN NASHVILLE. EXTREMELY DANGEROUS SITUATION. I WAS ABLE TO SHUT THE TRUCK OFF AND RESTART IT TO CLEAR THE CODE BUT IT CONTINUED TO HAPPEN. AFTER RESEARCHING ONLINE I'VE FOUND THAT THIS IS A VERY COMMON PROBLEM CAUSED BY THE THROTTLE BODY AND SENSOR. THERES RECALLS OUT FOR MULTIPLE F150 TRUCK MODELS BUT APPARENTLY MINE WAS MADE AT A TIME THAT WASN'T INCLUDED IN THE RECALL. FORD HAS A BIGGER PROBLEM THAN THEY ARE ADMITTING TO AND THEY ARE PUTTING PEOPLE'S LIVES IN DANGER BY DOING SO. I REACHED OUT TO FORD BECAUSE I WANTED THEM TO DOCUMENT THAT THERES A PROBLEM IF THEY WEREN'T GOING TO FIX IT. THEY RECOMMENDED I REPORT IT TO THE NHTSA. I NEARLY GOT HIT MULTIPLE TIMES BECAUSE OF A FAULTY SENSOR THAT COSTS LESS THAN $300 TO REPLACE.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 FORD F-150. WHEN THE CONTACT'S WIFE WAS DRIVING 45 MPH, THE BRAKE PEDAL TRAVELED TO THE FLOORBOARD WHEN IT WAS DEPRESSED. ALSO, THE LOW BRAKE FLUID WARNING INDICATOR ILLUMINATED. THE EMERGENCY BRAKE HAD TO BE ENGAGED TO STOP THE VEHICLE. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO COURTESY FORD (6393 US-98, HATTIESBURG, MS 39402, (601) 264-5555) WHERE THE MASTER CYLINDER, BRAKE BOOSTER, AND BRAKE BOOSTER SENSOR WERE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE, BUT DID NOT ASSIST. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 77,566. *PM*JB

IN EARLY SEPTEMBER OF 2019, I WAS DRIVING MY 2015 FORD F-150 ON A MAJOR HIGHWAY AT ABOUT 65 MPH. SUDDENLY, THE VEHICLE STALLED AND LOST ALL POWER AS THE DASHBOARD LITE UP WITH SOME KIND OF TRACTION WARNING. I DRIFTED TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD AND PUT IT IN PARKED. THE WHOLE VEHICLE SHOOK SIGNIFICANTLY AT THIS POINT. I TURNED THE VEHICLE OFF AND WAITED ABOUT 2MINUTES. I STARTED THE TRUCK UP AND WENT ON MY WAY WITH NO PROBLEM. (NOTE: THIS INCIDENT WAS A SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUE AS I WAS ON A MAJOR ROADWAY IN HEAVY TRAFFIC. MY 10 AND 8 YEAR OLD GRANDCHILDREN WERE IN THE BACK SEAT). A FEW WEEKS AND A COUPLE HUNDRED MILES LATER, I WAS ON A NARROW MOUNTAIN ROAD GOING ABOUT 45 MPH WHEN THE EXACT SAME THING HAPPENED. I TOOK THE TRUCK TO THE FORD DEALER AFTER BOTH OCCURRENCES, BUT THEY COULD NOT FIND ANYTHING WRONG WITH IT, AND SAID THERE WAS NOTHING THEY COULD DO. I'M RELUCTANT TO DRIVE IT AS THIS SITUATION COULD CAUSE AN ACCIDENT. IT ONLY HAS 42,000 MILES ON IT AND I USE IT TO TOW MY TRAVEL TRAILER. I WAS NOT TOWING THE TRAILER WHEN THESE INCIDENTS OCCURRED. I SAW ON YOUR WEB SITE THAT SEVERAL OTHER PEOPLE HAVE HAD SIMILAR ISSUES WITH THE FORD F-150. IS THERE ANYTHING I CAN DO ABOUT THIS? NOTE THAT I BOUGHT THE TRUCK NEW IN 2015 FROM THE SAME DEALER THAT I TOOK IT TO FOR SERVICE. [XXX] INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6).' *PM

WIFE WAS DRIVING VEHICLE AND EXPERIENCED SUDDEN LOSE OF BRAKES , BRAKE PEDAL WENT TO FLOOR AND LOW BRAKE FLUID LEVEL LIGHT CAME ON . HAD TO USE EMERGENCY BRAKE TO BRING VEHICLE TO A STOP WITH NO PRIOR WARNING.

ON 09/22/2019 WHILE DRIVING, ON A LOCAL CITY STREET, WHERE THE SPEED LIMITS VARY FROM 30-45 MPH, MY BRAKES BECAME COMPLETELY INEFFECTIVE WHILE DRIVING IN A 45 MPH ZONE. MY VEHICLE IS A 2015 FORD F-150 WITH 63,000 MILES. I INSPECTED THE BRAKE FLUID RESERVOIR, AND IT WAS COMPLETELY EMPTY WITH NO SIGN OF LEAKAGE ANYWHERE. I DID A QUICK SEARCH ON THIS ISSUE AND LEARNED THAT FORD HAD ISSUED A RECALL FOR THE SAME ISSUES ON THE 2013-2014 MODELS, BUT NOT 2015 AND UP, WHICH ARE NOW EXPERIENCING THE SAME SYMPTOMS. THE VEHICLE IS CURRENTLY AT A LOCAL FORD DEALERSHIP WHERE I AM FINDING IT DIFFICULT TO GET A RESOLUTION. THE DEALERSHIP HAS CONFIRMED AT THIS POINT THAT IT IS THE BRAKE MASTER CYLINDER THAT HAS LEAKED FLUID INTO THE BRAKE BOOSTER, WHICH CAUSED THE LOSS OF BRAKES, AND IS THE EXACT SAME PROBLEM AS THE RECALL FOR THE PREVIOUS YEAR MODELS. THE DEALERSHIP IS SUPPOSED TO PROVIDE ME WITH AN ESTIMATE OF THE REPAIRS, BUT HAVE YET TO DO SO AFTER A WEEK OF BEING AT THE DEALERSHIP.

WHILE ACCELERATING THE VEHICLE TO GET TO 55 MPH THE ENGINE SUDDENLY LOST THROTTLE RESPONSE AND BEGAN TO RUN ROUGH. SIMULTANEOUSLY THE DASH FLASHED THAT UPHILL ASSIST WAS DEACTIVATED AND FLASHED THE MAINTENANCE WRENCH. UPON PULLING THE VEHICLE OVER AND SHUTTING IT OFF AND RESTARTING IT THE VEHICLE RAN NORMALLY. THE FREQUENCY OF THIS INCREASED FROM ONCE EVERY COUPLE OF WEEKS TO NOW UP TO 5 TIMES IN 10 MILES. WHEN IT CAUSES AN OBD CODE IT IS P2112. IT OCCURS MOST FREQUENTLY WHILE ACCELERATING TO HIGHWAY SPEEDS BUT HAS ALSO OCCURRED WHILE AT HIGHWAY SPEED AND ACCELERATING TO VILLAGE SPEEDS OF 30 MPH. IT HAS EVEN OCCURRED ONCE WHILE USING CRUISE CONTROL AS THE VEHICLE WAS CLIMBING A HILL. AT THIS TIME IT IS UNKNOWN WHAT IS CAUSING THE FAULT. AN ATTEMPT HAS BEEN MADE TO CLEAN THE THROTTLE BODY AND THE PROBLEM PERSISTS. A NEW THROTTLE BODY IS ON ORDER BUT HAS TO BE INSTALLED YET TO SEE IF IT CORRECTS THE ISSUE.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 FORD F-150. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 65 MPH, THE 'LOW BRAKE FLUID' MESSAGE SUDDENLY DISPLAYED AND THE BRAKE PEDAL EXTENDED TO THE FLOORBOARD WHEN ATTEMPTING TO SLOW DOWN THE VEHICLE. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO LAWHORN FORD (2434 LAKEWAY DR, RUSSELL SPRINGS, KY) WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE BRAKE SEAL HAD RUPTURED AND THE MASTER CYLINDER AND BRAKE BOOSTER NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 90,000. JFT*PM MANUFACTURER STATED THAT THEY COULD NOT PROVIDE ASSISTANCE BECAUSE THERE WERE NO RECALLS FOR THE VEHICLE. *DL

SINCE DECEMBER 27TH 2018 THE OIL PRESSURE SWITCH HAS GONE OUT 3 TIMES. THE SECOND TIME 3 OR MORE QTS OF OIL LEAKED OUT. LOW OIL PRESSURE LIGHT CAME ON WHEN STARTING UP IN DRIVEWAY.

I HAVE EXPERIENCE A BRAKE FAILURE DURING THE OPERATION OF MY VEHICLE, SIMILAR TO THE DESCRIPTION WITHIN THE FINDINGS FOR FORD 16S24 ' BRAKE MASTER CYLINDER REPLACEMENT ' 2013-2014 FORD F-150 ON MY 2015 FORD F-150 WITH THE SAME MOTOR. I HAVE HAD A NON-FORD MECHANIC TAKE A LOOK AND FOUND THE SAME CONDITION DESCRIBED IS WHAT HAPPENED TO MY VEHICLE, AS WELL AS HAVE THE VEHICLE NOW BEING INVESTIGATED BY AN AUTHORIZED FORD MECHANIC. I WOULD LIKE TO ENSURE THAT THE SCOPE OF THE INVESTIGATION INCLUDE EXPANSION TO 2015 VEHICLES BUILT IN THE SAME MANUFACTURING LOCATIONS, AS I BELIEVE MY SAME SITUATION AND RISK EXIST FOR MINE. FOR REFERENCE OS THE SITUATION, I HAVE ADDED THE LINK TO THE ISSUE WRITE UP. HTTPS://STATIC.NHTSA.GOV/ODI/RCL/2016/RCMN-16V345-1450.PDF

I PICKED UP MY 2015 FORD F150 ON THURSDAY OF LAST WEEK BECAUSE THE MASTER CYLINDER WAS LEAKING AND CAUSED MY WIFE TO LOSE HER BRAKES WHILE DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY. I DROVE MY TRUCK TO OUR FAMILY REUNION ABOUT AN HOUR AND HALF AWAY ON SATURDAY WHICH WAS 2 DAYS AFTER I HAD PICKED MY TRUCK UP AND THE CRUISE CONTROL WOULD NOT SHUT OFF BY TAPING THE BRAKE. MY WIFE AND I WERE TRAVELING ON A HIGHWAY AND I WAS IN THE SLOW LANE WITH THE CRUISE SET AT 72MPH. I WAS APPROACHING THE VEHICLE IN FRONT OF ME, SO I LOOKED IN MY LEFT MIRROR AND NOTICED A CAR COMING UP BESIDE ME. I WAS UNABLE TO PASS, SO I TOUCHED THE BRAKES TO DISENGAGE THE CRUISE CONTROL AND I LOOKED BACK IN MY MIRROR AGAIN TO SEE IF THE CAR BESIDE ME WAS GOING TO PASS ME SOON. MY WIFE THEN SAID WHAT ARE YOU DOING? I TOLD HER I AM GOING TO PASS THIS CAR IN FRONT OF US AFTER THE CAR BESIDE ME PASSED US. SHE THEN SAID WELL YOU BETTER SLOW DOWN BECAUSE YOU ARE ABOUT TO HIT THE CAR IN FRONT OF US. HERE MY CRUISE CONTROL NEVER DISENGAGED SO I TOUCHED THE BRAKES 2 MORE TIMES AND NOTHING HAPPENED. I FINALLY HAD TO SLAM ON THE BREAKS AND IT FINALLY DISENGAGED. I HAD ALMOST REAR ENDED THE CAR IN FRONT OF US. I THEN GOT INTO THE FAST LANE AND PLACED THE CRUISE CONTROL ON AGAIN AND FOUND OUT THAT I WAS UNABLE TO DISENGAGE THE CRUISE CONTROL BY TAPPING THE BRAKES LIKE YOU SHOULD. I HAD TO PUSH THE BRAKE PEDAL 2/3 OF THE WAY TO THE FLOOR WHICH AT THIS POINT YOU ARE STOPPING ON THE HIGHWAY. THIS IS THE THIRD SAFETY ISSUE IN LESS THAN 1 YEAR
