Owner reports filed with NHTSA about this vehicle, newest first and reproduced as filed. They are unverified accounts: one proves nothing, and a pattern across many is the thing worth reading. Back to the full 2025 record →
The electronic instrument cluster went completely dark and would not come on after turning off the vehicle and locking and unlocking the truck. The dealer reset the cluster, but claims it was simply "overloaded." This is a major drivability issue as there is no speedometer, no indication of what gear one is in, and the turn signals are inoperable. This is a known problem with no solution.
A piece of reflective cloth like material has fallen from underside of truck bed and onto tailpipe and begun to burn. This creates a fire hazard for anybody using this vehicle. I have two of these similar trucks and it’s happening to both of them before 500 miles.i don’t know if the issue has been verified of reproduced by anybody. The vehicle has not yet been inspected by the dealer or manufacturer. There were no warning lamps or symptoms prior to me finding this by chance as I was replacing a wheel.
The "service" light comes on frequently with a message that there's a powertrain/loss of power issue.
The contact owns a 2025 Ford F-150 equipped with Hankook Tires, Tire Line: Dynapro A/T 2, Tire Size: 275/60/R20, DOT Number: (N/A). The contact stated that upon inspection, it was discovered that the rear passenger’s side tire had a 3/4-inch sized tread separation. A replacement tire was installed. The contact later discovered that the same failure had occurred with the front passenger’s side tire. The cause of the failures were not yet determined. The manufacturer and local dealer were notified of the failure. The failure mileage was 5,000.
Loss on all braking systems. Multiple warning lights including on dash. Brakes will become spongy and not stop or lock up all 4 wheels at slightest touch. Taken to dealer who provided a service memo SSM 53683 which basically says vehicle unable to power down and no fix available. Ford is aware of the problem and has done nothing to fix this despite multiple phone calls and emails. This is a significant safety issue Vehicle is also brand new will less than 1000 miles on it
On the morning of Wednesday May 28, 2025 I walked out to 2025 Ford F-150 (5200 miles) when it suddenly sounded as if someone shoot a gun towards me. After standing back up I saw the rear glass had shattered looking as if it exploded from inside out due to the glass being in truck bed and not inside back seat. The four corners of glass were all broken off with giant hole in middle. The truck engine was not on and I had front passenger door open. I called Ford and they stated that they have never seen or heard of this, although I googled it and have seen many forums on same thing happening, and that they are not responsible. It is crazy to think about this happening if I had been driving when this happened and the potential accidents this could have caused on the road.
My brand new truck with 3500 miles when the cruise control is set to a speed the truck will randomly accelerate un commanded. This occurs when for no reason the cruise control will select 95 MPH if you at 75 MPH. It will do this at any speed selected. This uncommanded speed can occur multiple times within minutes or can late as long as 30 minutes. Also this uncommanded speed can also occur at lower speed set in the cruise control. This can only be corrected by hitting the brake. This is especially dangerous in traffic and on curves. This has happened in both places as well as on long stretches. I almost rear ended a car in front of me in traffic as I was going 55 and when the speed changed to 95 the truck floored the accelerator with full engine power.
When backing Ford f-150 up on any kind of an incline rear end is locked up for about ten seconds causing a safety risk. When shifting from reverse to drive. Does not do this on a flat surface. Have almost been hit three times now by cars coming around the corner of my street. Does not throw a code. Been at dealership a couple weeks. Dealership sent tech to house to observe. Did it every time! Truck only has 800 miles on it.
1st incident: shift lever on centre consul " froze" in recessed position and vehicle could not be shifted into gear. Mileage at 500. 2nd incident: Mileage at 1600. With engine running, shift lever " froze" in reverse gear and couldn't be moved. If this happen on a busy street or highway, something serious could occur, even life threatening.
NHTSA publishes every complaint as the owner wrote it and investigates only a fraction. Spelling, capitalisation and judgement are the filer’s own. What carries weight is repetition: the same component failing the same way across many filings, and whether the manufacturer eventually opened a recall for it.
