I had an oil change performed earlier in the day. Drove 90 miles on the oil change when I lost complete oil pressure and than had my engine lock up. After the truck was towed back to the dealership and some surface investigation was done they told me it would be 2K to take the oil pan off to get a definitive answer to the issue. For them the only fix was replacing the entire engine at 14k. They believed it was just bad luck timing the occurrence of the loss of oil pressure and engine failure. The event happened with 135,556 miles on the vehicle. At 122,000 miles I had my drive shaft detach on the expressway. At the time I was still under extended warranty on the truck. The fix for that was a new drive shaft and to replace the rear axle. The issue I have is believing that 2 catastrophic events on the vehicle would occur within 12k miles and the three events not being connected. The manufacture wasn’t able to provide me with any answers as to what failed or why making it incredibly difficult to make a huge financial decision on what to do. I struggle with a vehicle that has that low of mileage would just completely implode and be undrivesble.

My 2021 F-150 PowerBoost hybrid repeatedly lost propulsion while traveling on the highway in early October 2026, including four incidents on one trip around October 3. At approximately highway speed, the tachometer dropped to zero while the selector remained in D, and the truck coasted as if in neutral. There were harsh shifts around 9th/10th gear and difficulty accelerating beyond approximately 70 mph. A vehicle warning appeared. Disconnecting and reconnecting the battery temporarily restored operation. Sudden loss of drive power in highway traffic created a collision risk. The underlying cause has not been independently established. A Ford dealer's October 2026 inspection recorded an internal transmission hydraulic leak, clutch-disconnect trouble codes suggesting a hybrid drive unit concern, a recommendation to replace the transmission with the hybrid drive unit, and high-voltage battery cell-balance DTCs. More recently electric-driving mileage has remained at zero and the gasoline engine continues running while stationary. Severe shifting and vibration had varied between 2H and 4A modes. Around June 2025 the vehicle also stopped operating and was towed to the same dealer; I understand a 12-volt battery was replaced. Photographs from that period show Stop Safely Now and other warnings around 70,000 miles. I request investigation of whether that earlier incident and the present faults are related; I do not claim the same root cause has been proven. Exact diagnostic codes and

The cdf is outdated and the truck would get stuck in the wrong gear and not work. I was only 3,800 miles over the 60k mile warranty and having to pay out of pocket for a updated cdf drum that ford has created because they know the old ones are faulty

In July of 2024 I took my truck into Cleburne Ford in Cleburne, Texas for transmission issues. The vehicle registered 39, 581 miles at that time. My complaint was mainly clunky issue regarding shifting when down and upshifting. The dealer test drove and advised completing transmission rebuild IAW with TSB 24-2176. The truck stayed at the dealership for approximately one month closing out the work order on 8/6/2024. I drove the truck for approximately two years until experiencing a serious issue that was extremely dangerous. On a road trip to to El Paso from Glen Rose with the cruise control set travel at approximately 80 miles per hour, which is the legal limit on that stretch of road. The vehicle started lunging, lurching, and hunting! it was extremely unnerving and could have caused a lesser driver to lose control of the truck, because at that speed it only takes one small issue to happen and a grave accident could have occurred. The service engine soon indicator light then came on the dash. The cruise control was deactivated and we were near a rest stop where we stopped. When I turned the truck back on the service engine soon indicator light was off. For some reason I thought maybe it has something to do with the cruise control, so I did not turn it on again for the remainder of the trip there and back. The truck seemed to be ok, but I wanted to take it in again to have it checked. I took it to Triple Crown in Stephenville Texas, because I felt upset to think I might have

The contact owns a 2021 Ford F-150. The contact stated that while driving at an undisclosed speed, the check engine warning light illuminated, and a alert was received through the mobile application. The vehicle was taken to a dealer, where a diagnostic inspection revealed that the knock sensor failed and required replacement. The dealer informed the contact that water intrusion on the intake manifold caused the knock sensor failure. The vehicle was scheduled for repair at the dealer. The contact attributed the failure to the factory omission of the engine cover and the cowl design directly above the engine compartment, which allowed water to collect on the manifold. The manufacturer was notified via telephone, and a case was filed. The failure mileage was approximately 64,900.

My daytime running light has burned out. I also see a lot of other f150 around town with the same exact problem. I also don’t want to get stopped from the police for having a bulb burned out. I have researched this problem and you can’t fix it unless you buy a whole brand new headlight assembly for $1500.

I am getting a Steering Assist Fault message on my dash as well as code C1B00:49-2F. I took my vehicle to the Ford dealership and the deemed I have a faulty steering rack. I noticed there was also a recall out for other 2021 F-150's experiencing similar issues. My VIN was not included.

While driving truck, it had an electrical fritz that caused the car to become undrivable, with systems not responding. when stopped to power cycle, the car would accessory on but not attempt to start. the horn would go off randomly. was able to manually put the truck into neutral and push into a safe spot, at what point a battery clear was attempted with no results, and required towing to dealership where water had intruded into the BCM

I have experienced ongoing issues with transmission. Two separate dealerships have done partial "rebuild" to no avail. The vehicle has lost power several times which include XXX at approximately 3:30 pm. while pulling onto a busy highway in heavy traffic. As soon as I got home, I parked the truck in the carport where it remains as of this writing. There have never been any warning lights, symbols, etc. on dash when these and other multiple problems with this vehicle happened. Multiple technicians have duplicated all of the issues that I have reported to the dealerships. I have been in touch with Ford Motor Company several times and have an open case with nothing from their representatives except to say how sorry they are. Second dealership has stated both verbally today, XXX, and in writing on XXX that he personally oversaw a complete teardown of this transmission on XXX when C-clutch was replaced see service order#XXX although parts list doesn't support his statement. Please refer to service order #XXX which is a documented failure of the E-clutch in my vehicle. The service manager at [XXX] O[XXX] states that this document is "speculation" on the part of the technician. I am in possession of his email stating such. I am at this time requesting any investigator be assigned to my case/claim # XXX, which I was given by [XXX] (last name unknown) Respectfully yours [XXX] INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)

Vehicle: 2021 Ford F-150 Tremor Mileage: Approximately 103,000 miles My 2021 Ford F-150 Tremor developed a severe shudder and vibration during acceleration. The condition progressively worsened and became significant enough that I had the vehicle professionally inspected. The vehicle was diagnosed with a failing torque converter as the cause of the acceleration shudder/vibration. The truck has been well maintained throughout my ownership. It is garage kept and receives regular maintenance through an authorized Ford service facility. I have maintenance records documenting the vehicle’s service history. My concern is that the torque-converter failure produces a severe vibration/shudder during acceleration and has progressively worsened. I am concerned about the potential safety implications if the torque converter or transmission continues to deteriorate while the vehicle is being driven. I contacted Ford regarding the failure and requested assistance with the repair. The vehicle is outside Ford’s original powertrain warranty at approximately 103,000 miles, and Ford declined to provide assistance. I am submitting this complaint so NHTSA has a record of this torque-converter/transmission failure and the severe acceleration shudder occurring in my 2021 Ford F-150.

The contact owns a 2021 Ford F-150. The contact stated that while driving 45 MPH, the accelerator pedal was depressed; however, the vehicle failed to accelerate as intended. The vehicle was shaking abnormally and the check engine warning light illuminated. The vehicle was driven to the shoulder of the roadway. The contact turned off the vehicle. The vehicle was restarted. The vehicle was driven to the residence. The dealer was contacted by phone and made aware of the failure. The vehicle was taken to the dealer; however, the failure was not duplicated and the failure reoccurred.

This vehicle was purchased new. It currently has about 56000 miles. Over time there have been numerous incidents where the battery was suddenly dead. The dealer repeatedly replaced the battery with out addressing the cause. This was done under warranty until recently when there was a charge of $1138. This supposedly resulted in the electronics being reset to factory settings. On a subsequent trip of about 2000 miles , there were numerous incidents (at least 8-10) where the Google Maps program, installed by the dealership, malfunctioned. My question is, what other electronic issues were installed with the factory settings. This has been reported to the dealer, with no response. On August 31, 2026, a request was made to the dealer for copies of service records for this vehicle so that this problem and lack of correction could be challenged. There has been no response, other than their saying “they will make it right “. They are apparently unable to provide service records.

The contact owns a 2021 Ford F-150. The contact stated that while driving at various speeds, the transmission unexpectedly downshift. Additionally, the vehicle hesitated and jerked while driving. The vehicle was taken to the dealer on several occasions; however, the dealer failed to duplicate the failure. The failure persisted and the dealer disassembled the transmission and replaced the hub assembly, Part Number: ML3Z7H351B; however, the failure persisted. The vehicle was returned to the dealer where a service technician test drove the vehicle with the contact and the technician stated that the transmission needed to be replaced. After months of waiting for a response, the contact took the vehicle to another dealer for assistance. The second dealer test drove the vehicle and disassembled the transmission and recommended that there was an adjustment of the clutch clearance, replace the necessary seals, and replace the C-clutch and seal. The technician acknowledged the failure and provided the recommendation, and the contact was later informed that the dealer would only clear the codes. The technician suggested that the contact monitor the vehicle for future issues. The contact stated that the failure immediately returned after the codes were reset. The failure mileage was 19,605.

Fuel pump has failed, vehicle shut off while driving, ford dealership has confirmed failed fuel pump under the 25s75 recall, check engine light illuminated with fault code P008A (fuel system low pressure) fault code moments prior to vehicle shutting off, vehicle would not restart

On September 10, 2026 about 9:10 am, I experienced an engine stall as I was approaching an intersection. I was slowing down and entering a left turn lane. Vehicle bucked like a horse and stalled. No warning lights or codes. It costed to a stop at which time I attempted a re start. The motor turned over for about 10 seconds and then started up. It seemed like there was a loss of fuel. This incident reminded me of a recall letter a got in the mail last year. After research I saw recall #25V455 with no fix yet. Called my local dealer and they said there is no codes so they would probably have to charge me a diagnostics fee of $250.00 and nothing they can do about the recall. Made an appointment and then I cancelled it. What is a person supposed to do? Drive until something bad happens? Take chances and pray for the best?

Should be able to simply repair my daytime running lamps at a reasonable cost. One of them is now dim, causing lower visibility for other drivers. Ford's cost for me to repair was quoted today at over $2,100. Simply put, unreasonable! This is an issue that has effected several vehicles.

Daytime Running Lights stopped working. Unable to fix unless the whole light assembly is replaced.

Daytime Running Light in the headlight assembly overheated and stopped working. Thousands of 2021-2023 F150 owners have had the same issue. This is clearly a mass scale manufacturer known defect and Ford already tried sending an update to lower the LED brightness but the issue still happens.

ON YOUR VEHICLE, THE WHEEL END HUB BOLT IN THE REAR AXLE MAY BECOME LOOSE OR BREAK. CONTINUED DRIVING WITH A BROKEN BOLT MAY LEAD TO WEAR WITHIN THE AXLE AND DAMAGE THE AXLE HUB SPLINES. I’ve been contacting ford dealerships in my area trying to get this safety recall replaced over the last year every two or three months. I get the same excuse the part is on back order, we have 70,000 on back order others have said 35,000. Yet there is no timetable for when the part will be available. In the meantime I have to drive a vehicle that has had the top of the bolt connecting the tire to the axel snapped off. Ford has completely failed in remedying this issue since the recall and by their numbers making it so 70,000 people possibly have a broken vehicle that they are not repairing or replacing like the safety recall states.

Fuel pump failed while driving causing vehicle to be disabled in a roadway blocking traffic. The vehicle was then incapable of shifting to neutral so that it could be moved out of the roadway. A Ford dealer confirmed the faulty fuel pump and replaced the part. Ford appears to know this is a safety issue as per recall campaign 25S75/25V455 but they have refused to pay for the replacement fuel pump.

The contact owns a 2021 Ford F-150. The contact stated that while attempting to shift into park (P), the gear shifter became stuck, requiring the contact to remove the key from the ignition or depress the brake pedal until a whining sound ceased in order to shift into park (P). The contact stated that while operating the vehicle in reverse (R), the vehicle suddenly shifted into park (P) and stopped immediately. The failure recurred several times while in reverse (R). The vehicle was taken to the dealer, where it was confirmed that the VIN was not included in a recall. The failure mileage was approximately 53,000.

The contact's son owns a 2021 Ford F-150. The contact stated that her son reported that while accelerating from a complete stop, the vehicle hesitated significantly and shifted hard while the accelerator pedal was depressed. The vehicle was towed to the dealer, where it was diagnosed with transmission failure. The dealer determined that the transmission needed to be replaced, and the vehicle was repaired. The contact received notification of NHTSA Campaign Number: 26V402000 (Power Train), which the contact associated with the failure. The manufacturer was notified of the failure and informed the contact that reimbursement could only be provided when the recall remedy became available in April 2027. The failure mileage was approximately 113,468.

Led headlight drl strip turned blue on one side. Have seen many with this issue in the led module ballast. Safety concern because its a common running light issue that hinders people from seeing the vehicle as easily.

My husband was driving on the highway with my two daughters in the car when the vehicle stopped driving and he was barely able to pull off the road. It appears to be a defective low-pressure fuel pump. This is an active recall for this model and year, however Ford says that our specific VIN was not involved in the recall. My family could have been killed in this incident!

Trailer brake controller installed in truck by manufacturer. We wanted to tow our travel trailer and was doing the setup process to test before we left for a trip. We were unable to set the gain for the trailer brake controller. Trailer was connected to truck and plugged in, but unable to change gain or feel brakes when we took a drive around the neighborhood. If we had not taken the steps to test prior to heading out on our trip could have been a serious result. Contacted our local Ford dealer and made an appointment for July 8, 2026. Was told the trailer brake controller connected in the back was not connected. They said this could have happened during manufacturering or just fell out while driving. Still either way could result in serious issues. Not sure if my truck was the only one or are there others on the roads with an issue. If an invoice was provided by the dealership, I have misplaced. They wanted to charge me almost a $100 for them to find it was not connected. The split the cost with me.

ABS Control module and brake booster assembly failed. Vehicle would not crank or start. Disconnected battery negative pole for one minute to reset PCM. Vehicle started. Drove immediately to independent service center without difficulty. Service center confirmed vehicle no start the next morning. Found several DTC codes including U3001 (Control Module Improper Shutdown) U300A (Ignition switch) U0121 (Lost communication with ABS) U0554 (Invalid Data recieved from Accessory Protocol Interface) and U0415 (Invalid Data Received from ABS) Flowchart determined ABS module is bad. Anti Lock Brake System control module failed which rendered the system inoperative. Warning on dash that Anti Lock Brake System failed was prominent among other warnings. (Traction Control, Service Needed, Door Ajar (was closed), Hood ajar (was closed) Assembly was replaced and ABS module reprogrammed by independent service center. They retained the bad assembly.

I am reporting a severe safety defect where Ford Motor Company's sequential safety recall software updates are actively corrupting powertrain modules and inducing physical mechanical failures while the vehicle is in operation.Following the completion of the 24S55 Engine Intake Valve Recall (which reflashed the PCM and wiped the transmission's adaptive learning tables), my 2021 Ford F-150 developed an immediate operational shudder. Shortly after, a forced Over-the-Air (OTA) update for the 26C10 Trailer Brake Module triggered a secondary network reset via the CAN-bus. The intersection of these two software-driven actions caused an operational fault that physically broke the torque converter clutch.A compromised torque converter clutch can cause sudden vehicle stalling, unpredictable acceleration lags, and catastrophic powertrain locking while driving at highway speeds, creating an imminent crash hazard. The local Ford dealership service department confirmed the hardware failure and noted that pushing automated software updates over unstable tables leaves the entire transmission highly vulnerable to total systemic failure.Ford is currently refusing to open an escalation file or address this issue. Because Ford's official remedy for safety recalls 24S55 and 26C10 directly introduces a secondary, severe safety risk to the vehicle's powertrain integrity, I request that NHTSA investigate the technical compatibility and safety of these sequential software updates.

I’m concerned about the 1080R transmission CDF drum issues that ford had on these year models.Mine is downshifting hard at times not every gear but more between 5-8 gears, or especially coming to a stop light it will down shift hard from 3rd to 1st. Shifting up is not as bad as the downshifting but it still does shift harder than normal.Just doing research on others that had the bad parts in their CDF drum issues seem like mine is having same issues.

When I begin the accelerate from a stopped position I apply the accelerator to begin driving and after a couple seconds after entering the roadway, the vehicle looses power and appears to stall, after a couple more seconds or less the vehicle revs and accelerates very quickly in a jerking fashion and resumes moving forward. Sometimes the vehicle will do this several times in a short distance. This loss of power and erratic motion have happened several times when I have entered into traffic form a stopped position and while driving. I took the vehicle to the dealership where I have it regularly serviced and described the problem. After they investigated the issue I described they were able to re-create the issue and told me that the transmission needed repair. I was able to look up similar complaints and have identified that this is a pervasive issue with the 10R80 transmission in this model year, there is a Ford TSB 26-2226 that identifies the symptoms that I experienced and pointed to a defective part in the Transmission that is the likely cause of the erratic behavior of the transmission and power train. Loosing power and stalling unexpectantly while entering an intersection or in traffic could cause a collision and injuring persons or damaging property. The Service Department where I have the vehicle serviced was very aware of the issue with the Transmission and Ford has issued multiple Technical Service Bulletins to include TSB 26-2046 and TSB-26-2226. This may also be re

Subject: Steering Rack Failure Reimbursement Request, VIN [XXX] To Whom It May Concern, I am requesting review and reimbursement for an electronic steering rack replacement on my 2021 Ford truck, VIN [XXX]. The electronic steering fault first appeared at start-up and when turning the wheel to full lock. Initially, I could pull over, shut the truck off, restart it, and the warning would clear. After a battery replacement, battery monitoring system reset, and multiple steering relearns, the steering failed completely. When the failure occurred, steering became extremely difficult. After hitting a bump, the steering wheel jerked suddenly and caused pain to my hand and thumb. This also created a serious safety risk for me and others on the road due to the reduced ability to steer. The dealership replaced the electronic steering rack at a cost of over $2,000. The truck had only about 40,000 miles at the time. I later found Ford Recall 21S28, which appears to cover certain trucks built between XXX. Based on my VIN and build date, my truck appears to fall within that range, but the dealership advised my VIN was not included. Given the low mileage, safety risk, and apparent build-date match with Recall 21S28, I request that Ford and NHTSA review my vehicle’s eligibility under this recall or any related program and reimburse me for the repair. Thank you, [XXX] INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)

We broke down because the fuel pump broke, which has a recall out there. We had stopped at Buc-ee’s for a break and when we got back to the truck, it wouldn’t start back up. We got it fixed at Banner Ford and were forced to pay $1822.50 for a fix that a known recall is out for that they claim there’s no remedy for. But, then you’re telling me you can fix it for $1800. It makes no sense that we have to pay for something that there’s a recall for. We are just trying to get our money back.

I am reporting a serious safety-related transmission issue involving my 2021 Ford F-150 equipped with the 10R80 automatic transmission. On multiple occasions during normal driving, the transmission has behaved unpredictably and, at times, dangerously. The transmission has suddenly lost the selected gear, slipped or failed to engage, shifted violently, experienced significant RPM flares, unexpectedly downshifted, and harshly clunked into first and second gear while coming to a stop. These events have occurred under a variety of normal driving conditions, including while accelerating, merging onto a highway, making turns, crossing intersections, traveling at highway speeds, driving in stop-and-go traffic, and coming to a stop at red lights. In several instances, the vehicle did not provide the expected acceleration or propulsion when commanded, creating a potentially dangerous situation because I could not reliably predict how or when the truck would respond to throttle input. Of particular concern is the possibility of losing propulsion or experiencing an unexpected gear change while merging into traffic, crossing an intersection, or traveling at highway speed. The unpredictable nature of the transmission makes it difficult to safely operate the vehicle and creates a significant risk of a collision. I believe these symptoms may be related to the known 10R80 CDF clutch-cylinder/sleeve issue. Ford technical information has identified axial movement of the CDF sleeve as a conditi

Ford has a VERY well-documented flaw in their LED headlight assemblies on 14th generation F150s (2021 +). The daytime running lights regularly burn out within several years / 35,000 miles, and each headlight costs over $2000 per side to replace with OEM components! They cannot be repaired; they can only be replaced. Ford specifically excludes these headlight assemblies from their extended warranty as well. The problem is so common that, when you see a 14th generation F150 on the road that's a few years old, it likely has one of the LED DRL lights out. Ford dealers verbally acknowledge how common of an issue it is, but Ford Motor Company refuses to issue a TSB or recall. Customers are left with shockingly high bills for what really is safety equipment. As you know, DRLs are indeed considered safety equipment! Customer shouldn’t have to pay over $4000 to fix this clearly common OEM supplier flaw that Ford has yet to remedy. Of course, what many owners do is simply allow the DRLs to fail because of the prohibitively expensive repair costs. This is a safety issue.

On [XXX], I was driving westbound from Missouri into Oklahoma in my 2021 Ford F-150 XL. While traveling approximately 75 mph on the highway, I moved into the passing lane to overtake another vehicle. As I accelerated and applied additional throttle to pass, the transmission downshifted into passing gear. After completing the pass, the vehicle continued to accelerate on its own even after I released the accelerator pedal. The engine remained at a high throttle setting, and the truck increased speed to approximately 85 mph. At that time, I was not using cruise control, nor had I pressed the cruise control switch, which was involved in a previous acceleration-related incident I experienced with this vehicle. To regain control, I carefully created distance from surrounding traffic, applied the brakes, and maneuvered the vehicle onto the shoulder. After coming to a stop well off the roadway, I shifted the vehicle into Park and turned off the engine. I then restarted the truck, and the unintended acceleration condition was no longer present. Because of the incident, I did not attempt to use the cruise control system again during the trip, and I avoided using heavy throttle or passing gear out of concern that the condition could reoccur. The vehicle has since been inspected by a Ford dealership. As of this report, their evaluation has not identified the cause of the problem, and no fault has been found despite the incident occurring on the highway. This incident created a significan

The CDF drum is going bad cause the transmission to slip and downshift while going at highway speeds. Many many many owners report this and Ford created a new CDF drum for owners to put in. However this costs thousands of dollars to replace when they know the CDF drum is faulty.
