2017 Ford F-150 complaints

CAR RANDOMLY SLIPS OUT OF GEAR WHILE DRIVING. WILL THEN TRY TO ACCELERATE AFTER BRAKING AND TRUCK SLAMS INTO FIRST GEAR ROCKETING YOU FORWARD AND DISRUPTING DRIVING PRETTY VIOLENTLY. SOMETIMES IT IS EASY TO GET OFF THE ROAD AND OTHER TIMES IT IS EXTREMELY DANGEROUS. GENERALLY ONCE I TURN OFF THE ENGINE AND START IT AGAIN IT IS OK FOR A WHILE. BUT THIS IS NO WAY TO DRIVE AND NOT SAFE WITH MY KIDS RIDING WITH ME. LUCKILY I DRIVE MOSTLY AROUND TOWN AND NOT ON AND OFF HIGHWAYS! THIS HAS HAPPENED MULTIPLE TIMES OVER THE PAST YEAR. TRUCK HAS BEEN IN FOR RECALLS BUT NO HELP. GOING BACK IN NOW TO SEE IF THEY CAN ACTUALLY 'FIND' THE PROBLEM!

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2017 FORD F-150. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE VEHICLE DRIFTED TO THE LEFT AND RIGHT WHILE DRIVING. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO SHEEHY FORD LINCOLN OF RICHMOND (10601 MIDLOTHIAN TURNPIKE, RICHMOND, VA 23235, (804) 293-2212) TO BE DIAGNOSED AND THE ELECTRONIC POWER STEERING ASSIST CODES WERE LOCATED. THE DEALER REPLACED THE STEERING GEAR AND THE ENTIRE STEERING COLUMN. ALSO, DURING ANOTHER VISIT, ALL FOUR TIRES WERE REPLACED AND THREE ALIGNMENTS WERE PERFORMED BETWEEN DEALER VISITS. THE CONTACT TOOK THE VEHICLE BACK TO THE DEALER DUE TO A REAR DIFFERENTIAL FAILURE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE DEALER WAS RELUCTANTLY CHECKING THE STEERING AGAIN. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 4,000.

THE RUNNING BOARDS ARE SUPPOSED TO AUTOMATICALLY EXTEND WHEN THE DOOR IS OPENED. MANY TIMES ON BOTH THE DRIVER SIDE AND PASSENGER SIDE WILL TRY TO EXTEND BUT WILL NOT STAY, THEY IMMEDIATELY RETRACT. THIS CAUSES THE OCCUPANT TO HAVE TO TAKE A VERY LARGE STEP UP INTO OR OUT OF THE VEHICLE. SOMETIMES THEY FAIL COMPLETELY TO EVEN TRY TO EXTEND AT ALL WHEN THE DOOR IS OPENED. THIS OCCURS FOR BOTH THE FRONT AND BACK DOORS. THIS IS WHEN THE VEHICLE IS STOPPED. IT HAPPENS WHEN THE VEHICLE IS OFF AND WHEN IT IS ON.

UPON COLD START VEHICLE BLOWS BLUEISH/WHITE SMOKE FOR APPROXIMATELY 6-8 SECONDS THEN STOPS. DOES NOT SMOKE WHILE DRIVING AND VEHICLE RUNS JUST FINE OTHERWISE. TOOK TO DEALERSHIP AND THEY SAID IT WAS A PCV VALVE STUCK OPEN AND THEY RELACED IT.....THAT DIDN'T FIX THE PROBLEM.

GOT TO WORK AND PARKED MY 2017 FORD F150. CAME OUT 4 HOURS LATER AND MY BACK WINDOW WAS COMPLETELY SHATTERED. THE SLIDER WAS NOT TOUCHED BUT THE REST LOOKED LIKE IT HAD EXPLODED FROM THE INSIDE OUT. MY TRUCK WAS PARKED WHERE NOTHING COULD HAVE HIT IT. IF I HAD BEEN DRIVING WHILE THIS WINDOW SHATTERED I MAY HAVE WRECKED INTO ANOTHER VEHICLE OR PERSON OR GOTTEN SERIOUSLY INJURED OR KILLED. FORD NEEDS TO RECALL THESE DEFECTIVE BACK WINDOWS AS NUMEROUS COMPLAINTS BY CONSUMERS ARE EVERYWHERE YOU LOOK. COME ON FORD. MAKE IT RIGHT!

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2017 FORD F-150. WHILE DRIVING 50 MPH, THE FRONT PASSENGER TIRE WENT FLAT AND THE LUG WRENCH DID NOT FIT OVER THE LUG NUTS. IN ADDITION, THE LOW TIRE PRESSURE INDICATOR ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AUTONATION FORD MIAMI 1(6800 NW 57TH AVE, HIALEAH, FL 33015, (305) 707-0141) WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE LUG NUTS WERE SWOLLEN AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED.

WATER IS GETTING IN THE TRUCK, WETTING AND STAINING THE DRIVER SIDE AIRBAG, AND COMING OUT OF THE DRIVER SIDE GRAB HANDLE, RUNNING DOWN THE ELECTRICAL INSTRUMENT PANEL. THIS IS MOST APPARENT WHEN THE VEHICLE IS PARKED ON AN INCLINE DURING A RAIN STORM, WITH THE FRONT OF THE VEHICLE LOWER THAN THE BACK.

COLD CRANKING NOISE CONCERNING ECOBOOST SYSTEM AND LIFTERS...MAKING LOUD NOISE AND I AM BEING TOLD IT'S NORMAL...PLUS CLUNKING NOISE UNDERNEATH MY TRUCK THAT SOUNDS LIKE THE MOTOR OR THE DRIVE SHAFTS IS GOING TO FALL OUT...I AM ALSO BEING TOLD BY DEALERSHIP THAT THIS IS NORMAL...I KNOW BETTER...THE TRUCK IS DEFECTIVE AND UNSAFE. NOW THEY ARE REFUSING TO ADDRESS THE ISSUES.

MY HUSBAND WAS DRIVING HEADED SOUTH ON IH35 NEAR CARL'S CORNER TEXAS WHEN A LADY PULLED UP NEXT TO HIM AND WAS FLAGGING HIM DOWN. HE WAS AT EXIT #374 WHICH WAS HIS EXIT TO COME HOME. THE LADY EXITED AS WELL AND WAS SCREAMING AT HIM. HE THEN ROLLED THE WINDOW DOWN TO HER SAYING YOUR TRUCKS ON FIRE. FEB 10TH 2019 THIS VEHICLE CAUGHT ON FIRE WHILE DRIVING IT. ON FEB 11TH 2019 THE DEALERSHIP THAT WE BOUGHT IT FROM TOWED IT TO THE DEALERSHIP. IT BEEN AT THE DEALERSHIP SINCE THEN SO OVER 5 MONTHS AT THIS POINT. FORD HAS YET TO DETERMINE WHAT CAUSE THE FIRE EXCEPT THE 4X4 TRANSFER CASE MIGHT BE TO BLAME. IT HAS ONLY 36,438 MILES ON IT. SO THEY PLAN TO FIX WHAT THE FIRE DAMAGED AND GIVE IT BACK TO US. ME OR MY HUSBAND DON'T FEEL SAFE IN THAT VEHICLE ESPECIALLY SINCE THE CAUSE OF THE FIRE IS UNDETERMINED. THIS IS SAD THAT A CAR MANUFACTURE HAS SO MUCH MONEY THE CONSUMER HAS NO RIGHTS. WE HAVE DELAYED OUR PAYMENTS WITH FORD MOTOR CREDIT FOR 3 MONTHS. NOW SINCE THE DEALERSHIP IS DRAGGING IT ALONG WITH WILL SOON BE REPOED. WE REFUSE TO PAY ON A VEHICLE WITH THIS SERIOUS ISSUE AND IS UNSAFE. AND IT'S STILL IN 100'S OF PIECES AT THE DEALERSHIP.

SINCE 15,000 MILES VEHICLE EMITS EXCESSIVE BURNT ENGINE OIL SMOKE FROM EXHAUST DURING INITIAL START UP. FORD BECAME AWARE OF THIS MARCH 19, 2019 UNDER FORD CASE CAS17456883, VEHICLE NOW HAS 19,000 MILES, AND NOT FIXED TO DATE. ADDITIONALLY, ENGINE DOES NOT COMPLY WITH FEDERAL OR STATE EMISSION STANDARDS. EXHAUST SYSTEM, EXHAUST SENSORS, AND CATALYTIC CONVERTER IS CONTAMINATED.

ON 01-24-2019, I STOPPED AT A RED LIGHT AND NOTICED AN ODOR COMING FROM MY 2017 FORD F-150 TRUCK AND SAW SOME SMOKE COMING FROM UNDER THE HOOD. A MOTORIST NEXT TO ME POINTED TO THE BOTTOM OF THE TRUCK; I ROLLED DOWN THE WINDOW AND HE SAID HE THOUGHT THERE WAS A FIRE UNDER THE TRUCK. I PULLED OVER, SHUT OFF THE TRUCK, SAW A SMALL FIRE ON THE FRAME UNDER THE ENGINE. THE OTHER MOTORIST PUT IT OUT WITH A FIRE EXTINGUISHER. A STATE POLICE OFFICER CALLED THE FIRE DEPT. WHO FURTHER EXTINGUISHED THE SMOLDERING. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED. MY INSURANCE COMPANY SENT AN ADJUSTER WHO CONCLUDED THAT THE FIRE WAS CAUSED BY A FAILED PINON SEAL IN THE DIFFERENTIAL, WHICH IS PART OF THE POWER TRAIN. THE LEGAL DEPARTMENT OF FORD MOTOR CO. (OFFICE OF GENERAL COUNSEL) STATED THAT THE FIRE OCCURRED BECAUSE THE VEHICLE WAS DRIVEN ON PAVEMENT IN 4WD. I ASSERT THAT THIS IS NOT TRUE AND IS A TACTIC OF FORD MOTOR CO. TO AVOID HONORING THEIR PRODUCT WARRANTY OR TAKING RESPONSIBILITY FOR A POTENTIAL SAFETY HAZARD.

BACK GLASS BROKE WITHOUT IMPACT

TAKATA RECALL TRUCK PUT IN PARK IN PARKING LOT BUT ROLLED AWAY WHILE I WAS INSIDE A BUILDING STRIKING A LIGHT POLE.

ORIGINAL PROBLEM WAS TRANSMISSION SLAMMING INTO GEAR AND SLIPPING WHEN ACCELERATING. THE TRUCK WAS KEPT AT AGENCY FOR 21/2 WEEKS. SERVICE MANAGER TOLD ME THAT FORD INSTRUCTED HIM TO QUIT WORKING ON IT. PROBLEM OF SLIPPING STILL EXIST AND RECENTLY THE VEHICLE JUMPED OUT OF GEAR WHEN I WAS MERGING ONTO THE INTERSTATE, I DO NOT FEEL SAFE DRIVING THIS VEHICLE.

INTERMITTENT BRAKING ISSUE. BREAKS DO NOT HAVE MUCH BREAKING POWER. WHILE SETTING AT A RED LIGHT MORE PRESSURE NEEDS TO APPLIED TO THE BREAK PEDAL. IN SOME INSTANCES THE PEDAL TRAVELS AN ADDITIONAL 2 INCHES. LOSS OF BREAK HOLDING POWER CAUSED ME TO HIT A TRAILER BEING TOWED IN FRONT OF ME. MY BUMPER HAD TO BE REPLACED.

REAR WINDOW OF MY TRUCK POPPED AND SHATTERED A FEW MIN AFTER ACTIVATING THE HEAT AND REAR DEFROSTER. NOTHING HAS STRUCK OR COMPROMISED THE WINDOW.

REAR WINDOW SHATTERED 5 MIN AFTER ACTIVATING THE REAR DEFROSTER. WAS NOT MOVING WHEN HAPPENED.

OIL PAN LEAKING OIL FROM RTV

I HAVE OWNED MY 2017 FORD F150 FOR A LITTLE OVER 2 YEARS VEHICLE HAS 30000 ON IT. I HAVE HAD FORD REPLACE MY LUG SWOLLEN LUG NUTS THEY HAVE REPLACED THEM TWO TIMES IN THE SHORT AMOUNT OF TIME. THE ALUMINUM SEPARATES AND EXPANDS FROM THE STEEL BODY . THE LUG WRENCH THAT THEY INCLUDE IN THE VEHICLE TO CHANGE TIRE WILL NOT FIT LUG NUTS ONCE THEY HAVE SWOLLEN. SO IN A INSTANCE OF HAVING A FLAT TIRE ON THE SIDE OF A BUSY HIGHWAY YOU WOULD NOT BE ABLE TO CHANGE TIRE.

FIRST EVENT: WHILE I WAS DRIVING BACK FROM THE COUNTRYSIDE ON A TWO WAY ROAD ' SINGLE LANE -, I OVERTOOK A BIG TRUCK ON AN UPHILL AREA, AND ALL THE SUDDEN MY TRUCK DIED. LOST ALL THE POWER AND I HAD TO MAKE AN EMERGENCY MANEUVER TO AVOID THE BIG TRUCK I WAS OVERTAKING AND ALSO THE CAR THAT APPEARED AT THE CURVE AHEAD. IT WAS CLOSE. I ALMOST CRASHED. AFTER CALMED ME DOWN, I STEP OUT OF THE TRUCK, OPENED THE CAPOT WHILE THE ENGINE WAS IDLING AND MAKING THIS HUGE 'VALVE' NOISE. I TOOK MY PHONE AND RECORDED A VIDEO. SOME COMPONENT ON A SIDE OF THE VALVE COVER WAS MOVING AND MAKING THAT NOISE AND ALL THE SUDDEN, I SMELLED GAS, LOOKED DOWN THE SCAPE MANIFOLD AND SAW GAS ALL OVER IT. I RAN BACK TO THE CABIN AND TURNED THE ENGINE OFF, TOOK THE EXTINGUISHER AND RAN BACK TO THE CAPOT. FORTUNATELY NOTHING HAPPENED. SECOND EVENT: WHILE DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY, WITH THE CRUISE CONTROL ON AT 120 KM/H, ON A PRETTY FLAT AREA, THE GEAR SHIFTED FROM 10 TO 7 WITH NO REASON AT ALL, AND I FELT LIKE THE TRUCK STARTED TO ACTIVATE THE BRAKES. THE HIGHWAY WAS CLEAR IN FRONT OF ME. NO CAR OR OBSTACLES WERE NEAR THE FRONT OF THE TRUCK. SECONDS AFTER THAT, THE ENGINE STARTED TO FAIL, DROPPING THE RPMS LIKE THOSE OLD MECHANICAL CARBURETOR STUCK WITH A DIRT AND SUDDENLY, ALL GOT BACK TO NORMAL. FORTUNATELY WAS ALMOST REACHING THE TOLL CONTROL TO ACCESS TO MY CITY. SO I SLOWED DOWN TO 50 KMS/H, PUT MY FOOT ON OVER THE BRAKES AND STARTED TO PRESS IT VERY GENTLE. SUDDENLY AND WITH NO WARNING, THE TRUCK SPED U

I WAS SENT A RECALL NOTICE, WENT TO SUNNYVALE FORD TO TALK TO THEM ABOUT SERVICE AND THEY WERE VERY RUDE AND BLEW ME OFF. THEY BLAMED FORD CORPORATE AND SAID IT WASN'T THEIR PROBLEM. THEY WERE VERY INFLEXIBLE ABOUT DROPPING OFF MY VEHICLE AND WERE CONFRONTATIONAL AT THE SERVICE DESK AND WHEN GOING TO DROP OFF THE VEHICLE. THERE WERE NO INSTRUCTIONS ON THE RECALL NOTICE ABOUT HOW TO ENGAGE THEM PROPERLY. NOW I'VE HAD TO DRIVE MY VEHICLE FOR EXTRA TIME IN AN UNSAFE STATE AND AM TRYING TO COORDINATE ANOTHER DEALERSHIP TO DROP IT OFF AT.

POWER STEERING WENT OUT, LANE ASSIST, HILL ASSIST, LANE KEEPING IT, BRAKING ASSIST HAVE ALL STOPPED WORKING. ABS LIGHT IS ON AND I AM GETTING MULTIPLE SENOR WARNINGS.

TRANSMISSION WILL STICK AND NOT CHANGE GEARS. LIKE A DEAD SPOT AND TRUCK WOULD NOT GO FASTER. THIS HAS HAPPENED SEVERAL TIMES.

AT ONLY 19K MILES I DEVELOPED A TIMING CHAIN ISSUE. ITS A KNOWN THAT THE DEALER TELLS ME IS PERFECTLY NORMAL.

TRAVELING DOWN MY DRIVEWAY, COMING TO A STOP AND THE TRANSMISSION GETS STUCK IN 3RD GEAR. IT WON'T DOWN SHIFT INTO 1ST GEAR SO IT WON'T MOVE FORWARD. I PUT THE SHIFTER INTO REVERSE AND I AM ABLE TO BACK UP. PUT SHIFTER INTO DRIVE AND STILL STUCK IN 3RD GEAR. BACK UP TO MY HOUSE AND PARK THE TRUCK NOT ABLE TO GO ANYWHERE. GO INTO THE HOUSE WAIT A COUPLE OF HOURS AND THEN TRY IT AGAIN AND EVERYTHING IS OKAY. THIS HAS HAPPENED TO ME 3 OTHER TIMES.

I RECENTLY BOUGHT A FORD TRUCK AND JUST A NORMAL DAY I WAS DRIVING AND THE TRUCK JUST POWER OFF I TOOK THE TRUCK TO A FORD SERVICE THEY TOLD ME I STILL HAVE EXTENDED WARRANTY, THEY CHECK THE TRUCK AND TOLD ME THAT THE ISSUE WAS ELECTRICAL THROTTLE BODY SND THAT MY WARRANTY DOESN'T COVERED THAT MALFUNCTION, I THINK THAT A NEW TRUCK WITH LESS THAN 51 THOUSANDS MILES WITH ELECTRICAL PROBLEMS MEANING THAT FORD JUST DON'T WANT TO COVERED WHAT THEY DON'T DO RIGHT

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2017 FORD F-150. WHILE DRIVING, THE CONTACT ATTEMPTED TO OPEN THE SUN ROOF, BUT WAS UNSUCCESSFUL. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO METRO FORD OF OKLAHOMA CITY (LOCATED AT 2800 W I 44 SERVICE RD, OKLAHOMA CITY, OK 73112, (405) 438-3330) WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT A NEW TRACK SYSTEM WAS NEEDED. THE VEHICLE WAS BEING REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 49,750.

TRUCK WANDERS ALL OVER THE ROAD AND REQUIRES CONSTANT CORRECTION NO MATTER THE ROAD CONDITIONS. ONCE THE VEHICLE SPEED REACHES OVER 40-45 MPH THE STEERING BECOMES VERY DIFFICULT. ALMOST AS IF THE POWER STEERING ASSIST IS NOT FUNCTIONING.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2017 FORD F-150. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE WINDSHIELD WASHER FLUID BECAME FROZEN AND WOULD NOT SPRAY TO CLEAN THE FRONT WINDSHIELD. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED.

REAR WINDOW BLOW OUT. I TURNED ON MY VEHICLE THIS MORNING TO WARM UP. I TURNED ON THE DEFROSTERS AND WENT BACK INSIDE FOR APPROXIMATELY 2 MINUTES. WHEN I CAME BACK OUTSIDE I COULD SMELL A ELECTRICAL TYPE BURNING SMELL. I AM A FIREFIGHTER AND AM FAMILIAR WITH THIS ODOR. NO SMOKE OR FLAMES EVER PRESENT/VISIBLE. I TURNED THEN SUDDENLY HEARD A LOUD POP, REALIZING THAT BOTH SIDES OF MY REAR WINDOW HAD COMPLETELY SHATTERED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT MOVING. NO ONE WAS IN THE VEHICLE AND I WAS THE ONLY ONE NEAR IT. NOTHING HIT THE WINDOW AND I HAD NEVER HAD THE SMELL IN MY TRUCK BEFORE.

TRAILER BLIND SPOT MONITOR IS TURNING ON AUTOMATICALLY DESPITE NO TRAILER BEING CONNECTED. DEALER HAS ATTEMPTED TWO FIXES WITH NO RESOLUTION. WHEN TRAILER BLIND SPOT IS ENGAGED IT EMITS A FALSE BLIND SPOT MONITOR LIGHT, WHICH CAUSES UNCERTAINTY WHETHER IT IS SAFE TO MANEUVER OR NOT.

HAD A FLAT ON MY 2017 FORD F150. THE FACTORY LUG NUT WRENCH DID NOT FIT MY FACTORY LUG NUTS. WAS STRANDED ON THE SIDE OF THE ROAD BECAUSE OF THIS. APPARENTLY THE LUG NUTS SWELL ABOVE 21MM TO WHERE YOU HAVE TO USE A 21.5MM OR 22MM WRENCH TO GET THE LUG NUTS OFF. THE FACTORY LUG NUT WRENCH IS 21MM. HAD TO PURCHASE A 22MM LUG NUT WRENCH TO REPLACE THE FACTORY ONE.

REMOTE STARTED VEHICLE THIS MORNING. REACHED IN TO TURN ON DEFROSTER AND WENT BACK INTO GARAGE. ABOUT 3 MINUTES LATER, I HEARD A "POP" LOOKED OVER AND MY BACK GLASS HAD SHATTERED ON BOTH SIDES. INSIDE SMELT OF BURNING AND THERE WAS WIRES EXPOSED FROM THE GLASS.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2017 FORD F-150. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 50 MPH, A FIRE STARTED IN THE ENGINE COMPARTMENT AND SMOKE EMERGED FROM UNDER THE HOOD. THE CONTACT PULLED THE VEHICLE OVER TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD. THE POLICE AND FIRE DEPARTMENTS WERE PRESENT AND THE FIRE WAS EXTINGUISHED BY THE FIRE DEPARTMENT. A POLICE REPORT WAS NOT FILED.

MY 2017 F150 XLT WITH LESS THAN 23,000 MILES HAS HAD ITS OIL PAN TOTALLY REPLACED FOR THE SECOND TIME DUE TO GASKET PROBLEM. FIRST FAILURE WAS AT APPROXIMATELY 7,000 MILES. THE REPAIRS WERE DONE UNDER WARRANTY BUT IT IS A REOCCURRING PROBLEM WITH THIS MODEL YEAR ON LOTS OF OTHER OWNERS TRUCKS. EVEN FORD DEALERSHIPS WHO FOLLOW THE REPAIR WORK INSTRUCTION HAVE GOTTEN THE TRUCKS BACK INTO THEIR SHOP FOR REOCCURRING FAILURES. BOTH LEAKS WERE CAUGHT DURING REGULAR INSPECTION AND AT NORMAL OIL CHANGES DONE BY THE AUTHORIZED FORD DEALERSHIP. THIS IS AN SIGNIFICANT AND EXPENSIVE REPAIR FOR A NEW TRUCK. I AM A VERY CONCERNED OWNER WORRIED ABOUT EVEN MORE FAILURES IN THE FUTURE. WHY NO PERMANENT FIX OR RECALL?

BACKUP CAMERA DOES NOT WORK - WHEN SHIFTING FROM PARK TO REVERSE, THE BACKUP CAMERA FAILS TO ACTIVATE. THIS HAPPENS FREQUENTLY - SOMETIMES IT WILL HAPPEN THE FIRST TIME THE VEHICLE IS DRIVEN (AFTER BEING PARKED OVERNIGHT), SOMETIMES IT WILL HAPPEN WHILE DRIVING AROUND (I.E. DRIVE FOR A SHORT AMOUNT OF TIME, THEN PARK, THEN DRIVE AGAIN - THE CAMERA WILL FAIL TO ACTIVATE UPON RESTARTING THE VEHICLE). I HAVE OWNED THIS VEHICLE SINCE DECEMBER 2017, AND FIRST NOTICED THE ISSUE ABOUT A MONTH AFTER PURCHASING. DEALER CLAIMS THAT THEY ARE UNABLE TO REPRODUCE THE PROBLEM. COMMENTS POSTED ONLINE AT WWW.F150FORUM.COM SUGGEST THAT THIS MAY BE RELATED TO A FAILING APIM MODULE, AND THAT THIS SEEMS TO BE A COMMON ISSUE.

MOONROOF BINDING UP. IT CONTINUES TO TRY AN OPEN FOR A FEW SECONDS WHICH COULD BIND UP MOTOR BURN IT OUT AS WELL AS POSSIBLE START A FIRE OR MELT PLASTIC. IT DOESNT EVEN OPEN IT JUST BINDS UP AN STOPS ALL THE TIME AN NOW DOESNT OPEN AT ALL. BEING ASE CERTIFIED AND KNOWING ENOUGH ABOUT ELECTRICITY THIS COULD CAUSE A FIRE AS IT IT IS BINDING UP IF YOU CONTINUE TRYING TO USE IT. THIS IS A SAFETY CONCERN AS IT COULD CAUSE A FIRE AS WELL IF YOU ARE DRIVING AND GO TO USE IT MAY MAKE AN AWKWARD NOISE AND DISTRACT YOU FROM DRIVING AT THE TIME YOU TRY TO GET IT TO WORK. VEHICLE WAS BEING DRIVEN AT THE TIME OF USE. AN THEN I TRIED IT STATIONARY AFTERWARDS AN THEN HAD TO DISCONNECT IT. HAVE YET TO FIX IT OR HAVE IT LOOKED AT AS I WILL FIX IT MYSELF DUE TO THE COST.

THE HALOGEN HEADLIGHTS ARE TERRIBLE! I LIVE IN A PLACE THAT IS VERY DARK DURING THE WINTER MONTHS AND THESE HEADLIGHTS ARE CLOSE TO NIGHT HAVING THE LIGHTS ON. I HAD TO CHANGE THEM OVER TO HIGH INTENSITY LED BULBS, WHICH ISN'T AN EASY CHORE, THAT MADE IT BETTER BUT FORD, WITH ALL THE NEW FANGLED TECHNOLOGY OUT THERE, SHOULD PUT BETTER HEADLIGHTS IN ITS VEHICLES.

FRONT END SHIMMY / WOBBLE AT 55 MPH AFTER HITTING BUMP IN ROAD

SINCE NOVEMBER 2018 WHEN TEMPERATURES ARE BELOW 32 DEGREES MY DOORS WILL NOT CLOSE ONCE OPENED ON MY F-150, UNTIL THE LOCK IS FORCED DOWN.. THE TRUCK HAS BEEN TO THE DEALERSHIP MULTIPLE TIMES FOR ALL FROZEN DOOR LATCH RECALL (18NO3). WHEN THE DOORS DO CLOSE, BY FORCING THE LOCK DOWN, THEY WILL NOT REOPEN UNTIL THE TRUCK HAS WARMED UP. ALL FOUR DOORS HAVE BEEN AFFECTED. MY CHILDREN HAVE BEEN LOCKED IN THE BACK (CREW CAB). I HAVE HAD TO DRIVE TO THE DEALERSHIP HOLDING THE DRIVERS DOOR CLOSED. THE DOORS ARE A SAFETY CONCERN FOR MY FAMILY AND I, AND FORD HAS NO FIX FOR THE PROBLEM. THE DEALERSHIP WILL NOT BUY BACK THE TRUCK. THE PROBLEM EXIST STATIONARY AND IN MOTION.
