AFTER 40 MILE ON THE HIGHWAY DRIVE, I'VE GOT OFF THE OFFRAMP AND CAME TO A RED LIGHT. WHILE I WAS STOPPED MY TRUCK STARTED TO IDLE ROUGH FOR ABOUT 10 SECONDS AND FINALLY STALLED. NO CHECK ENGINE OR WARNING LIGHTS APPEARED OTHER THAN A NOTIFICATION ON THE DASH SCREEN STATING TO PRESS BRAKE TO START. I THEN PRESSED THE BRAKE AND PUSHED START AND IT TURNED ON RIGHT AWAY. I THEN DROVE IN THE CITY FOR ANOTHER 20 MILES WITH NO PROBLEM AND THEN EVIDENTLY IT HAPPENED AGAIN WHEN I GOT TO A STOP. RESTARTED RIGHT AWAY WITH NO SECONDARY ISSUES. I TOOK IT TO MY LOCAL DEALERSHIP. THEY KEPT IT OVER NIGHT TO RUN TESTS BUT THERE WAS NO SUCCESS ON RECREATING THE PROBLEM. THEREFORE, NO REPAIR WAS MADE. I DO FIND THIS SITUATION UNSAFE DUE TO POSSIBLE FAULT OCCURRING AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS OR ON A HILL WHILE DRIVING.

THE TEMPERATURE WAS ABOUT 17 DEGREES FAHRENHEIT. THE DRIVER AND .AND DRIVER SIDE REAR DOORS WOULD NOT LATCH UPON CLOSING. I WAS ABLE TO GET THE DOORS TO LATCH BY HEATING THE LATCH WITH A HAIR DRYER, SPRAYING THE LATCH WITH SILICONE LUBE, AND SIMULTANEOUSLY OPERATING THE ELECTRIC LOCK SWITCH MULTIPLE TIMES. I HAVE HAD NO FURTHER PROBLEMS. FORTUNATELY, I WAS AT HOME WHEN THE PROBLEM OCCURRED. HAD I BEEN ON THE ROAD, I WOULD HAVE BEEN STRANDED. THE VEHICLE WAS STATIONARY WHEN THE PROBLEM WAS DISCOVERED.

THE APIM MODULE IS GOING OUT OF THE TRUCK IT IS A 2017 FORD NAVIGATION IS NOT WORKING RADIO IS SLUGGISH. NO GPS SIGNAL!

THE AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION SHIFTS ABRUPTLY UP AND DOWN THROUGH GEARS CAUSING THE TRUCK TO BUCK AND JERK. WHEN DRIVING THE TRANSMISSION WILL JERK THE TRUCK FORWARD AND BACKWARD. THIS IS OCCURRING ON CITY STREETS WHILE IN MOTION. THE TRUCK HAS APPROX. 50K MILES ON IT AND THIS STARTED HAPPENING IN JANUARY.

THE LATCH ON THE DOORS OF THE TRUCK DOES NOT LOCK WHEN THE TEMPERATURE GETS VERY COLD OUTSIDE POSSIBLY CAUSING ANY ADULT OR CHILD TO FALL OUT OF THE VEHICLE WHILE MOVING OR PARKED , THIS IS A CONCERNED AND SAFETY ISSUE FOR ANY AGES . ALSO CAR MAKES RATTLE NOISE AND AT TIMES SHUT OFF AND RECENTLY HAVING OIL LEAK .IS A 2017 IT SHOULDN'T HAVE ANY PROBLEMS .

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2017 FORD F-150. THE CONTACT WAS INFORMED BY A FRIEND THAT SAW ON THE NEWS THAT THE VEHICLE YEAR, MAKE AND MODEL HAD RUSTING TO THE DRIVESHAFT AND HANGER BEARING. THE CONTACT EXAMINED HIS VEHICLE AND SAW THAT THE DRIVESHAFT AND HANGER BEARING WERE RUSTED. THE CONTACT INFORMED THE MANUFACTURER WHO THEN INFORMED THE CONTACT THAT THEY WERE NOT AWARE OF THE FAILURE AND TO TAKE THE VEHICLE TO A FORD DEALER FOR DIAGNOSIS. THE CONTACT TOOK THE VEHICLE TO ED SHERLING FORD INC (805 GLOVER AVE, ENTERPRISE, AL 36330) HOWEVER, THE VEHICLE WAS NOT YET DIAGNOSED NOR REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 58,264.

IT IS KNOWN THAT FORD HAS A PROBLEM WITH THE CAM PHASERS ON THEIR 3.5 ECO BOOST ENGINE. MINE WENT BAD AND WERE REPLACED UNDER WARRANTY IN NOVEMBER 2019 AND APPROXIMATELY 45,000 MILES. NOW AT 70,000, THE CAM PHASERS ARE NEEDING REPLACED AGAIN. FORD IS REFUSING TO COVER THIS EXPENSE AS MY TRUCK IS NOW OUT OF WARRANTY. IT IS ALSO KNOWN THEIR CAM PHASER FIX DOES NOT SOLVE THE ISSUE, THUS THE PROBLEM IS RECURRING. THIS IS OBVIOUSLY A MANUFACTURER DEFECT AND SHOULD BE COVERED IN FULL. THIS IS A HUGE ISSUE EFFECTING THE MAJORITY OF FORD 3.5 ECO BOOST ENGINES. WHY WILL FORD NOT OWN UP TO THIS MANUFACTURING DEFECT?

ELECTRICAL : RADIO WILL RANDOMLY CUT OUT. TYPICALLY WHEN TRUCK STARTS RADIO WONT WORK. HAVE TO EITHER WAIT HOUR, OR DISCONNECT BATTERY. SEEMS LIKE TYPICAL ISSUE. SEATBELT : PASSENGER SEATBELT WONT RETRACT BACK. CAN HAND FEED THEN PULL OUT BY HAND. CALLED DEALER SAID 3 YEAR 60 THOUSAND FOR WARRANTY IM OVER 3 YEARS AND AT 71K MILES. PRICE OF ASSEMBLY WAS OVER $500. [XXX] OUTRAGEOUS FOR A SEATBELT. NO IDEA WHEN IT HAPPENED. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6). *TR

GOOD DAY TO WHOM IT MAY CONCERN, ON FEBRUARY 13,2021 I HAD A MAJOR BRAKE FAILURE WHILE PARKING MY TRUCK WHEN THE BRAKE PEDAL WENT TO THE FLOOR AS I WAS BACKING UP. THE REASON THIS IS A CONCERN IS THAT I REGULARLY HAVE MY VEHICLE SERVICED AT ONLY FORD DEALERSHIPS. THE TWO MOST RECENT TIMES I HAD SERVICE WAS ON JANUARY 21,2021 THE WORKS OIL AND FILTER CHANGE WHICH INCUDES INSPECTING INSPECTING THE BRAKE SYSTEM; AND OCTOBER 27,2020 THE WORKS OIL AND FILTER CHANGE WHICH INCLUDES INSPECTING THE BRAKE SYSTEM AT WHICH TIME I HAD REAR BRAKE WORK DONE BY FUTURE FORD LINCOLN OF CONCORD 2258 DIAMOND BLVD. CONCORD CA.94520. THE TECHNICIAN SAID IT WAS TO MUCH PRESSURE APPLIED TO MY BRAKES WHILE BACKING UP AND PARKING. I HAVE NOT EVER EXPERIENCED THIS THROUGH OVER 40 YEARS OF DRIVING AND IT IS A VERY CONCERNING ISSUE THAT I WOULD LIKE TO KNOW IF IT CAN BE INVESTIGATED INTO PLEASE. THANK YOU

THE 2017 F-150 SUDDENLY EXPERIENCED ELECTRICAL PROBLEMS INCLUDING; TAILGATE UNINTENDED OPENING, BLIS (BLIND SPOT INFORMATION SYSTEM) FAILURES, CROSS TRAFFIC ALERT FAILURES AND REAR CAMERA BLUE SCREEN FAILURES. THESE FAILURES OCCUR AT A STATUS OF THE VEHICLE, EG. LOCKING THE DOORS, SHIFTING INTO GEAR, USE OF KEY FOB OR PROXIMITY SENSORS TO TAILGATE.

DRIVER AND PASSENGER LOCKS WILL FREEZE AND THEY WILL NOT CLOSE OR LOCK. VERY DANGEROUS.

IN BELOW FREEZINNG TEMPS THE DOOR LATCHES FREEZE UP. MAKIG IT HARD TO ENTER THE TRUCK AND ONCE IN THE DOORS REFUSE TO LATCH CLOSED, SO UNLESS YOU WANT TO DRIVE AROUND WITH THE DOORS UNLATCKED YOU HAVE TO WAIT UNTIL THE TRUCK WARM UP ENOUGH TO THAW THE LATCHES. NOT WHAT YOU WANT FROM A $38K TRUCK .

CABIN HEATING/WINDSHIELD DEFROSTING SYSTEM NOT WORKING, ONLY BLOWS SOME WARM AIR THROUGH PASSENGER SIDE DASH VENTS, ONLY COLD AIR TO FLOOR, DRIVERS SIDE DASH VENTS AND WINDSHIELD DEFROST. UNABLE TO CLEAR FOG/FROST FROM WINDSHIELD {SAFETY ISSUE}, PER FORD TSB 20-2236 FORD DEALERSHIP NOT FAMILIAR WITH THE TSB.

THE DOORS WILL NOT OPEN WHEN THE WEATHER IS BELOW FREEZING. AFTER LETTING THE TRUCK HEAT UP FOR APPROXIMATELY 30 MINUTES, I WAS ABLE TO PRY OPEN THE DOOR, HOWEVER WHEN I ATTEMPTED TO CLOSE THEM, THEY WOULD NOT LATCH. AFTER ANOTHER 30 MINUTES, I WAS ABLE TO CLOSE THE DOOR AND PRESS THE LOCK BUTTON TO GET THEM TO LATCH, BUT THEN THE DOORS WOULD NOT OPEN AT ALL AFTERWARDS DESPITE MY PRYING. THIS IS A MAJOR SAFETY ISSUE AS I HAD MY TODDLER IN THE BACK SEAT AND I COULD NOT ACCESS THE TRUCK. THIS HAS HAPPENED AFTER I'VE ALREADY HAD IT TAKEN INTO THE DEALERSHIP WHERE THEY PERFORMED THEIR RECALL FIX, THE FIX DID NOT WORK AND THEY SAY THEY HAVE NOTHING ELSE THEY CAN DO.

WHILE DRIVING AT 40-50 MPH MY TRUCK ENCOUNTERED A HARSH ROARING SOUND AS IF IT WAS GOING OFF THE ROAD. I HAD ALSO ENCOUNTERED HARD SHIFTING FROM 4 TO 5 AND 6 GEAR. WHEN I ATTEMPTED TO CONTACT THE LOCAL DEALERSHIP. I WAS TOLD THAT IT WOULD BE 3 WEEKS BEFORE THEY COULD LOOK AT THE VEHICLE. I TOOK THE TRUCK TO A LOCAL ASE CERTIFIED MECHANIC AND HE WAS ABLE TO DETERMINE THAT THE TORQUE CONVERTER WAS BAD. THE TRUCK WAS PURCHASED IN 2017 WITH 6000 MILES AS A CERTIFIED PRE OWNED FORD TRUCK WITH 100K WARRANTY. I HAVE 98K AND NEED TO HAVE THIS ISSUE RESOLVED IMMEDIATELY.

THE TRANSMISSION HAS FAILED TWO TIMES. THE 10R80 TRANSMISSION IS KNOWN TO SHIFT ERRATIC AND CAUSE THE TRUCK TO RANDOMLY PICK GEARS. IT WILL ALSO RENDER THE GAS PEDAL USELESS. THIS WILL CAUSE YOU TO BE UNABLE TO ACCELERATE INTO THE FLOW OF TRAFFIC. IT WILL HOLD A GEAR AND THEN SLAM INTO THE NEXT GEAR AND SOMETIMES IT WILL STAY IN 3RD OR 5TH AND TRY TO START OFF THAT WAY. ITS A VERY DANGEROUS ISSUE. THE FIRST TIME MY TRANSMISSION WENT OUT IT TOOK FORD OVER A MONTH TO GET IT GOING AGAIN. NOW IT IS IN THE SHOP FOR THE SAME ISSUE AND IT HAS BEEN THERE FOR OVER THREE MONTHS AND IS STILL THERE.

VEHILCE HAS A CHRONIC UNREPAIRABLE OIL PAN LEAK, INDICATIVE OF ENGINES PRODUCED IN THE KANSAS CITY OR DEARBORN PLANTS, NHTSA ID#10143101 JUN22,2018, FORD HAS REPLACED THE VEHICLES OIL PAN FOUR TIMES.

COMPUTER SYSTEMS VOICE CONTROL AND MANUAL SYSTEM CONTROLS TIED TO THE COMPUTER SYSTEM IN SYNC3 HAS A 30-60 SEC. RESPONSE DELAY REQUIRING EYES TO BE TAKEN OFF THE ROAD TO ANSWER CALLS, MUTE SOUND, USE NAVIGATION, AMONG OTHER SAFETY FEATURES. THIS HAS MADE THE ENTIRE SYSTEM UNUSABLE AND APPARENTLY IS A COMMON AND KNOWN ISSUE WITH THIS SYSTEM. THE ISSUE OCCURS ALL OF THE TIME REGARDLESS OF BEING STATIONARY OR MOVING, DAY AND NIGHT, IN CITY OR ON HIGHWAY, AND HAS MANY TIMES BEEN A HAZARD WHILE DRIVING. THIS HAS OCCURRED STARTING IN JUNE OF 2019 AND CONTINUES TO GET WORSE.

FEB. 2019, DOORS WOULD NOT CLOSE ONCE OPENED. ' HAD TO TAKE WIFE TO WORK, HAD TO TIE BOTH FRONT DOORS CLOSED FROM INSIDE OF VEHICLE. TSB 18N03 APPLIED IN FEB. BY LOCAL DEALER. DEC. 2020; FRONT DOORS FROZE OPEN; WOULD NOT SHUT. TSB 19N03 APPLIED ON JAN. 14, 2021. ON JAN. 23, 2021, AGAIN DRIVERS DOOR WOULD NOT SHUT DUE TO FREEZE. HAD TO HOLD DOOR CLOSED WITH LEFT ARM WHILE PICKING UP SUPPLIES. THIS WAS 10 A.M. ON SAT. THE 23RD OF JAN.2021. THE VEHICLE WAS STATIONARY WHEN I NOTICED THE DOORS WOULD NOT CLOSE. I HAVE SHORT VIDEO, BUT TOO LARGE FOR THE 5 MB LIMIT. I UNDERSTAND FORD IS NAMING THIS "CUSTOMER SATISFACTION PROGRAM." I SUBMIT, THIS IS A SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUE.

AT 62,000 MILEAGE, THE AC COMPRESSOR HAD TO BE REPLACED AND BELT THAT I WAS WARNED WOULD SEIZE. I AM A FIRST RESPONDER DRIVING INTO OUR NEARBY MOUNTAIN RANGE. WE DROPPED OFF THE TRUCK AT THE SANTA CRUZ, CA FORD DEALERSHIP ON SEP 28, 2020 AND THE JOB WAS COMPLETED ON FRI OCT 2, 2020. THEY SAID IT WAS FIXED. 10 MINUTES LATER THERE WAS NO AC AS WE DROVE HOME. THIS WAS DURING THE CA WILDFIRE SEASON AND DAILY AQI CHECKS FOR HEALTH HAZARDS. I BROUGHT IT BACK IN ON MON, OCT 5, 2020, THEY SAID THEIR MACHINE WAS BROKEN AND THEY HAD TO SEND IT OUT. WE HAD TO DRIVE WITH OUR CHILDREN IN HAZARDOUS WILDFIRE AIR QUALITY ALL OF OCTOBER WITH THE WINDOWS DOWN. THE DEFROST DID NOT WORK EITHER PROPERLY, BLOWS INTO FACE INSTEAD, SO THE WEATHER TURNED ANDRESULTED IN ME GETTING DISPATCHES, DRIVING IN THE DARK THROUGH THE MOUNTAINS WITH NO DEFROST WINDSHIELD FUNCTION. HAZARD. THEIR MACHINE WAS FIXED DEC 18, 2020 SO I BROUGHT IT IN AGAIN. IT DID NOT WORK, AND THE AC AND DEFROST STILL BROKEN AS MECHANICS DETERMINED A CONNECTING PART THEY BROKE OFF IN ATTACHING THE MACHINE TO MY TRUCK AND NOW HAD TO ORDER THAT PART FROM DETROIT. I BROUGHT IT IN JAN 7, 2021 AND IT WAS SUPPOSEDLY ALL FIXED. 3 DAYS LATER NO AC OR DEFROST. I WORK WITH A SHERIFF DEPT WHO HAS HAD THIS OCCUR TO THEIR FLEET OF F150'S THIS LAST YEAR, AND BEEN GIVEN THE RUNAROUND WITH SUPPOSED FIX. THEY AUCTIONED OFF THEIR TRUCKS BECAUSE IT WAS NEVER PROPERLY RESOLVED. THIS SEEMS LIKE A POSSIBLE FORD PART RECALL, AND IS A HAZARD FOR DRIVERS.

MY VEHICLE BATTERY IS DEAD EVERY MORNING I TOOK IT TO TWO DIFFERENT FORD DEALERS AND THEY COULD NOT TELL ME THE ISSUE BUT STILL HAD TO PAY FOR THE DIAGNOSIS FEE. AT FIRST MY 17 FORD F150 WOULD MAKE ALMOST A JERKING NEXT DAY MY VEHICLE WOULD NOT START. I REPLACED THE STARTER AND BATTERY AND THE VEHICLE STARTED AFTER THAT BUT THE NEXT MORNING DEAD AGAIN.

VEHICLE MAKES VIBRATION STYLE NOISE FROM THE REAR RIGHT SIDE DURING SPEEDS OF 40-50 MPH WITH MINIMAL ACCELERATION AND/OR DURING LOW RPMS. VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO 2 DIFFERENT DEALERSHIP SERVICE SHOPS ON 4 OCCASIONS DURING THE WARRANTY PERIOD WHO ALL CLAIMED IT WAS A NORMAL SOUND. RESEARCHING ONLINE DURING THAT TIME WAS POINTING TO POTENTIAL MISALIGNMENT IN THE REAR-DIFFERENTIAL DURING MANUFACTURING. CONDITION CAN BE REPLICATED DURING DRIVING CONDITIONS, BETWEEN SPEEDS OF 40-50MPH, LIGHT APPLICATION OF GAS PEDAL AND DURING LOW RPMS. CONDITION EXISTED FROM TIME OF PURCHASE THROUGH PRESENT DAY.

ON DEC 27 OWNER OPENED THE REAR RIGHT DOOR OF THE VEHICLE, WHEN ATTEMPTING TO CLOSE THE DOOR IT WAS OBSERVED THAT THE LATCH DID NOT FUNCTION DUE TO POSSIBLE ICE ACCUMULATION ON THE LOCKING MECHANISM OF THE DOOR. SUSPECT THAT THE DOOR IS ALLOWING TOO MUCH WATER IN DURING MILD TO MODERATE RAIN EVENTS AND THE DOOR HAS A DESIGN FLAW RESULTING IN INADEQUATE DRAINAGE AND AIR CIRCULATION IN THE DOOR CAUSING THE LOCKING MECHANISMS TO FAIL. VEHICLE WAS NOT ABLE TO BE DRIVEN ON THE 27TH AS THE ICE HAD NOT MELTED YET AND THE LATCH CONTINUED TO FAIL. ON THE 29TH, THE DOOR WAS FINALLY ABLE TO LATCH AGAIN AFTER IT WARMED UP. BELOW ARE SOME OF THE METEOROLOGICAL CONDITIONS DURING THAT TIME. VEHICLE COULD NOT BE SECURED DURING THIS TIME AND THE DOOR HAD TO BE RATCHET STRAPPED SHUT FROM THE INSIDE. DURING THE DAY OF DEC 26 THROUGH NIGHT OF THE DEC 27, DAY TIME HIGHS OF MID 30S AND OVERNIGHT LOWS IN THE LOW 20S WITH RAIN ON DEC 24TH.

2 OF THE 4 DOORS WOULD NOT CLOSE AND 1 WAS FROZEN SHUT

THE REAR WINDOW IN MY FORD F-150 CRACKED. THERE WERE NO PREVIOUS COMPROMISED AREAS AND IT WAS UNTOUCHED WHEN IT HAPPENED. THE VEHICLE HAD BEEN IN MY GARAGE. I HAD USED THE AUTO START TO WARM UP THE VEHICLE IN THE MORNING. IT RAN FOR APPROXIMATELY 15 MINUTES. I PREPARED TO LEAVE FOR WORK AND NOTICED THE LARGE CRACK AND CHUNK MISSING IN THE REAR WINDOW.

DOING APPROXIMATELY 45MPH, IN FREEZING TEMPS AND LIGHT SNOW, APPROACHED A YELLOW LIGHT. HAD PLENTY OF DISTANCE TO STOP AND BEGAN TO APPLY BRAKES. TRUCK BEGAN TO SLOW, BUT SUDDENLY FELT LIKE THE BRAKES LET GO OR MAYBE HIT A PATCH OF ICE. LET OFF AND DEPRESSED THE PEDAL AGAIN. THE PEDAL WENT TO THE FLOOR. I BEGAN PUMPING THEM WHICH WAS SLOWING THE VEHICLE, BUT I ENDED UP IN THE MIDDLE OF THE INTERSECTION, NARROWLY AVOIDING A SIDE IMPACT WITH A SEMI AND LOOKING LIKE A MORON. MY ENTIRE FAMILY WAS IN THE TRUCK AND THIS WAS VERY CLOSE TO A DISASTER. AFTERWARDS THE BRAKES WERE SOFT AND CONTINUED TO DO THE SAME. WHEN THE PEDAL WAS HELD DOWN IT WOULD SLOWLY GO TO THE FLOOR, FEELING LIKE ALL HYDRAULIC PRESSURE WAS BLEEDING OFF. THE INITIAL OCCURRENCE HAPPENED ON A CITY ROAD IN MOTION. OF COURSE THE TRUCK WARRANTY ENDED ABOUT 500 MILES PRIOR. THIS VEHICLE HAS BEEN BABIED, ONLY USED FOR WEEKENDS. BEING TOLD BY DEALER THAT A SEAL FAILED IN THE MASTER CYLINDER AND POSSIBLY A HYDRAULIC CONTROL UNIT. ESTIMATE TO REPAIR IS OVER $2500 TO REPAIR A VERY NEW VEHICLE THAT COSTS OVER $50,000.

THE DRIVERS SIDE VALVE COVER CRACKED WITH LESS THAN 17,000 MILES. FORD WOULD NOT REPLACE AS THE WARRANTY EXPIRED 4 MONTHS AGO.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2017 FORD F-150. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE FRONT DOORS FAILED TO REMAIN CLOSED. THE CONTACT STATED THAT BICKFORD FORD (3100 BICKFORD AVE, SNOHOMISH, WA 98290, (425) 334-4045) REPAIRED THE DOOR LATCHES. THE CONTACT STATED THE FAILURE RECURRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 21,000.

DRIVERS DOOR WON'T LATCH CLOSED IN FREEZING TEMPERATURE. AFTER WARMING UP THE TRUCK, THE DOOR OPENED FINE BUT WOULD NOT LATCH CLOSED FOR APPROXIMATELY 15 MORE MINUTES FOR A TOTAL OF 30 MINUTES OF THE TRUCK RUNNING. 27 DEGREES OUTSIDE AND DRY. I DID NOT TRY TO DRIVE THE TRUCK UNTIL I WAS ABLE TO GET THE DOOR LATCHED. I CONTACTED FORD ROADSIDE ASSISTANCE DURING THAT TIME BUT WAS ABLE TO GET THE DOOR LATCHED WITHOUT NEEDING ANYONE SENT OUT.

THE WEATHER WAS SLIGHTLY BELOW FREEZING AND MY TRUCK WAS PARKED IN MY DRIVE. I USED THE REMOTE START FUNCTION ON MY KEY FOB TO ALLOW THE TRUCK TO WARM UP BEFORE I GOT IN. AFTER A FEW MINUTES I GOT IN THE TRUCK. WHILE THE TRUCK WAS PARKED AND UPON CLOSING THE DOOR I HEARD GLASS SHATTER BEHIND ME. WHEN I LOOKED THE ENTIRE PLATE OF BACK GLASS ON THE TRUCK HAD, FOR LACK OF A BETTER WORD, EXPLODED. TOP TO BOTTOM AND SIDE TO SIDE THE GLASS HAD COMPLETELY BROKEN. THERE WAS GLASS BOTH INSIDE MY TRUCK AND IN THE BED OF THE TRUCK.

MVCT PHASER RATTLE AT 60K MILES. DEALERSHIP WANTS 4-6K TO REPAIR THE TIMING CHAINS.

I USED REMOTE START ON THE TRUCK. THIS ACTIVATES THE DEFROST. IT WAS IN THE GARAGE WITH DOOR DOWN ON THAT SIDE (ANOTHER DOOR WAS OPEN). I WENT OUT AND THE REAR WINDSHIELD WAS COMPLETELY SHATTERED. THERE WAS A BURNING SMELL IN THE TRUCK WHEN I ENTERED. THIS COULD NOT HAVE BEEN DUE TO SOMETHING HITTING IT AS IT WAS ENCLOSED WITHIN THE GARAGE. .

THIS PAST WEEK, WE HAD A COUPLE DAYS OF 30 DEG WEATHER IN THE CHICAGO AREA IN THE MORNING AND I STARTED EXPERIENCING ISSUES WITH MY DRIVERS DOOR. IT WOULD NOT RE-LATCH WHEN I CLOSED THE DOOR. EVERY TIME I CLOSED THE DOOR I HEARD THE INFAMOUS "THUD" AND IT BOUNCED BACK OPEN. THIS HAPPENED OVER AND OVER. I HAD TO DRIVE 12 MILES, WHILE HOLDING MY DOOR CLOSED SO I CAN GET TO WORK. EVENTUALLY IT STARTS WORKING FINE AS THE WEATHER WARMS UP. I UNDERSTAND THERE IS A ALREADY A RECALL AND A SETTLEMENT ON THIS MATTER FOR THE EXACT YEAR OF MY F 150, HOWEVER MY F-150 VIN'S IS NOT APART OF THAT. I'VE CONTACTED FORD AND ALL I GOT WAS THERE'S NOTHING THAT THEY ARE ABLE TO DO SINCE MY VIN IS NOT APART OF THE RECALL. SO IN ORDER TO DRIVE MY VEHICLE SAFELY, I NEED TO PAY OUT OF POCKET. THIS JUST PROVES THERE'S STILL ISSUES WITH THE DOOR LATCH SYSTEM AND IT IS A SAFETY CONCERN.

DOOR LATCHES FREEZING AND DOORS WILL NOT REMAINED CLOSED POSING A SAFETY RISK. TAILGATE ALSO OPENS ON IT'S OWN.

ADDING PHOTOS TO THE FIRST COMPLAINT

I LIVE IN NEW HAMPSHIRE AND THE WEATHER IS COLD. I STARTED MY FORD F150 TRUCK TODAY USING MY FORD PASS. THE TRUCK RAN FOR 15 MINUTES. WHEN I PREPARED TO LEAVE IN THE TRUCK I NOTICED THAT IT WAS COLD INSIDE. WHEN I LOOKED IN THE REAR VIEW MIRROR, I REALIZED THE REAR SLIDING WINDOW WAS COMPLETELY SHATTERED. UPON CLOSER INSPECTION I REALIZED THE WINDOW BLEW OUTWARD AND A YELLOW LINE X STICKER ON THE RIGHT REAR OF THE WINDOW HAD BURN MARKS ON IT. THE STICKER WAS DISCOLORED TO INDICATE THAT A LOT OF HEAT WAS DIRECTED TOWARD IT. THE WINDOW WAS COMPLETELY SHATTERED AROUND THE OUTSIDE EDGE. ALSO, I LOCATED A COVER THAT HAD BLOWN OFF THE WIRES THAT RUN TO THE REAR DEFROSTER. IT APPEARS THAT THE REAR DEFROSTER RAN TO THE POINT THAT IT OVERHEATED THE GLASS AND CAUSED IT TO BLOW. I DISCOVERED THAT THIS HAS OCCURRED IN THE PAST WITH FORD F150 TRUCKS AND NTSA HAS RECEIVED COMPLAINTS. I CONTACTED FORD TODAY AND I AM WAITING TO HEAR BACK FROM CUSTOMER SERVICE

THE VEHICLE BEGINS TO SHUT DOWN AFTER GAS FILL UP. IT SEEMS LIKE THE VEHICLE HAS A VALVE SELENOID PROBLEM BECAUSE EVERYBODY IS TALKING ABOUT IT ONLINE. IT IS A HAZARD BECAUSE THE VEHICLE WILL TURN OFF WHILE DRIVING. I HAVE ALSO HAVE HAD TO REPLACE THE ELECTRIC USB AND POWER PLUG TWICE. THIS VEHICLE HAS ALOT OF ELECTRIC/GAS RELATED ISSUES WHICH CAUSE IT TO TURN OFF.

DRIVER SIDE DOOR WILL NOT LATCH. DRIVER SIDE DOOR UNMATCHED DURING DRIVING. DOOR LATCH FROZEN. DOOR LATCH LOCKS AND WON'T UNLOCK. DOOR LATCH PROBLEMS SEEM TO HAPPEN DURING COLD DRY AND WET WEATHER. WHILE DRIVING AND WHILE PARKING OR PARKED.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2017 FORD F-150. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE INSTRUMENT PANEL FAILED TO INDICATE ANY WARNING LIGHTS WHEN THE VEHICLE WASS TURNED ON. THE CONTACT HAD TO WAIT FOR A COUPLE OF HOURS WHILE THE VEHICLE WAS OFF JUST FOR THE VEHICLE TO RESUME BACK TO NORMAL. JENKINS & WYNNE (2655 TRENTON RD, CLARKSVILLE, TN 37040, (931) 542-4886) WAS CONTACTED AND CONFIRMED THAT THE VIN WAS NOT UNDER RECALL. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED NOR REPAIRED. THE CONTACT REFERENCED NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 17V053000 (POWER TRAIN, ELECTRICAL SYSTEM) AS A POSSIBLE SOLUTION TO THE FAILURE HOWEVER, THE VIN WAS NOT INCLUDED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE AND INFORMED THE CONTACT TO TAKE THE VEHICLE TO THE DEALER. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 40,093.

I HAD MY DOOR LATCH RECALL COMPLETED ON SEPT 20, 2020. ALL DOORS WERE DONE AT MY LOCAL FORD DEALERSHIP. THE FIRST COLD DAY BELOW 32 DEGREES, THE DOOR LATCH FAILED AND DOORS WOULD NOT CLOSE OR LATCH. CALLED FORD DEALERSHIP TO TELL THEM THE REPAIRS DID NOT WORK AND FORD WILL NOT RETURN A CALL OR E-MAIL TO ME TO PAY FOR THE RECALL TO BE RE-DONE AT ANOTHER DEALERSHIP! PLEASE HELP.

WHEN THE TRUCK SITS ALL NIGHT AND IT RAINS OR SNOWS THE DRIVERS DOOR LATCH GETS FROZE UP AND WON'T LATCH WHEN YOU CLOSE THE DOOR.

I WAS BACKING INTO MY DRIVEWAY AND STEPPED ON THE BRAKE TO STOP THE VEHICLE AND THE BRAKE PEDAL WENT TO THE FLOOR - NO BRAKES. I DIDN'T HAVE TIME TO TRY PUMPING THE BRAKES OR STEPPING ON THE EMERGENCY BRAKE. THE VEHICLE IMPACTED THE GARAGE DOOR DAMAGING IT TO THE POINT THAT IT NEEDS TO BE REPLACED. THE REPLACEMENT COST IS $1,833.33. THE VEHICLE IMPACT POINTS WERE THE PLASTIC PARTS OF THE TAILGATE, BUMPER AND TRAILER HITCH. THERE WAS NO VISIBLE DAMAGE TO THE VEHICLE. THE BRAKES WORKED FINE AGAIN AFTER THE INCIDENT. I HAD SKYLINE FORD CHECK THE BRAKES AND THEY COULD NOT FIND ANY TROUBLE CODES OR PROBLEMS WITH THE BRAKES DURING A TEST DRIVE. I NOW DON'T TRUST THE BRAKES AND AM CONCERNED THAT IT COULD HAPPEN AGAIN WITH MORE SEVERE CONSEQUENCES.

2017 FORD F-150. CONSUMER WRITES IN REGARDS TO OIL LEAKS IN VEHICLE. *LD THE CONSUMER STATED THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO A DEALER THAT WAS DISHONEST AND FAILED TO COMPLETE REPAIRS. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO A DIFFERENT DEALER WHERE THE REPAIRS WERE COMPLETED. *JS

VERY DANGEROUS SITUATION WITH 5 LANES OF TRAFFIC AND MERGING TRAFFIC. I COASTED TO A STOP, TURNED OFF IGNITION, AND RESTARTED. AGAIN.. THE ENGINE SHOOK VIOLENTLY AND AS I TRIED TO PULL FURTHER INTO MEDIAN, THE BRAKES COULD BARELY STOP THE TRUCK FROM MOVING DUE TO HIGH REVVING ENGINE. HAD TO TOW TO ANOTHER DEALERSHIP 3 HOURS FROM MY HOUSE! BACKLOG WILL TAKE OVER 1 MONTH TO REPAIR!

FRONT DRIVER-SIDE DOOR OPENED, BUT THEN WOULD NOT LATCH BACK CLOSED. IT HAD RAINED/SNOWED THE PREVIOUS DAY AND WAS 25 DEGREES F THAT MORNING.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2017 FORD F-150. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE APPROACHING A STOP LIGHT AT 35 MPH, SHE ATTEMPTED TO DEPRESS THE BRAKE PEDAL HOWEVER, THE BRAKES FAILED TO OPERATE AS NEEDED, WITHOUT WARNING. THE VEHICLE PROCEEDED THROUGH THE RED LIGHT.

11/8/2020, 9:00 A.M. THE REAR GLASS IMPLODED AND SHATTERED WHEN THE DRIVER DOOR WAS CLOSED UPON DRIVER GETTING IN. THE ENGINE WAS NOT STARTED, WHEN THE REAR GLASS SHATTERED. THE 2017 FORD F150 WAS SITTING IN OUR DRIVEWAY. WE LIVE IN THE COUNTRY WITH A FENCE AROUND THE HOUSE AREA. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DISTURBED, NOR WAS IT A COLD MORNING, ABOUT 75 DEGREES.

I JUST BOUGHT THIS 2017 F150 FROM DEACON JONES FORD AND 4 MONTHS LATER I'M HAVING TRANSMISSION ISSUES. AFTER DRIVING FOR A LITTLE DISTANCE, WHEN I STOP AND START DRIVING AGAIN I NOTICE THE RPMS GO CRAZY AND IT WON'T SHIFT OUT OF 1ST GEAR AND ALL OF THE SUDDEN IT GOES TO 5TH GEAR AND JERKS AND GOES BACK TO 2ND GEAR AND SLOWLY GOES UP. I JUST HAVE THE TRANSMISSION FLUID CHANGED AT THE DEALERSHIP AND TWO WEEKS LATER THIS STARTS. I TRIED RESEARCHING IT AND NOTICE FORD HAS SOME ISSUES WITH 2017-2019 F150 TRANSMISSIONS. SO I LOOKED TO SEE IF THIS TRUCK HAD ALREADY BEEN INSPECTED WITH THE SAME ISSUE AND IF IT WAS FIXED. I'M ABOUT TO GO ON A 10 HOUR DRIVE TO TDY TO A MILITARY BASE AND I NEED TO KNOW IF IT'S SAFE TO DRIVE AND WON'T GO IN LIMP MOD. THANKS JOSEPH
