2013 FORD F-150 Electrical System Problems

Fuse number 75 in power distribution box in engine compartment getting hot and melting not blowing the fuse but swelling and breaking contact therefore cause all lights to flash on the dash or nothing at all. Can be fine when parked but upon the next time you go to start it is when it can happen. No warning. First time happened 8/18/25. Next time was 1/3/26

Driving along on freeway and vehicle immediately shut down in the middle lane. From my investigation I found out Ford issued a TSB (15-0137) indicating crank no start, loss of RPM. This vehicle shut down and failure had put me at risk on a freeway where everyone is doing 65 miles an hour at night. My findings after pulling the melted fuse out and putting it back in the vehicle started up. My concern is that Fort has a TSB on this however vehicle shutting down on the freeway is a definite safety concern. Dealer wants $300 For this repair because it is not a recall. It is just a TSB. However, the other sad factor is the TSB kit to do the repair is $45 plus $280 for the repair.

I left my house going to the store about a mile and never made it my 2013F150 5.0 engine caught on fire about a block behind the Saratoga txfire department before they could make it the truck front end burnt to the ground and melted hood plum off of it for no reason at all total loss

There have been multiple problems with the leadframe in the 6r80 model of transmission. I have had my speedometer go out and cause the truck to shift into 1st gear causing my wheels to lock up while im driving 60mph down the highway. Ford states on the campaign to be eligible it must be under 10 years or 150000 miles whichever comes first of the customer satisfaction program but i believe it should be considered a saftey recall. The vehicles should be eligible for this program well beyond 10 years for safety reasons. In the winter it will be even more hazardous. Myself or someone else could die due to the wheels locking up. I have researched and found many others with the same issue and this should be escalated to a proper safety recall rather than a csp.

Odometer Fraud. The contact purchased a 2013 Ford F-150. The contact discovered a mileage discrepancy after the purchase. The vehicle was a private sale. At the time of purchase, the vehicle mileage was 96,000. It was later discovered that the mileage on the Title was 189,556.

Mileage: 189,556

The incident occurred while entering a limited access roadway. I was accelerating and merging into the main lane of travel. As I was accelerating, the engine cut off and several warning lights appeared. The Check Engine light came on first, followed by the Check Battery light. As a result of the loss of power, the vehicle behind me almost rear-ended my vehicle. I was able to roll to the side of the highway to the emergency breakdown lane without engine power. I have subsequently had the car inspected by a mechanic. The root cause of the loss of power was related to a cracked fuseblock mounted above the radiator in the middle of the truck. The mechanic indicated that he has seen several of these fuseblocks failing due to cracks. Leading up to the incident, the truck has experienced intermittent issues starting. The engine will crank, but it does not run. After tapping the fuseblock mounted above the radiator, the engine would run.

You will be driving down the road and it would downshift gears you guys have a recall on this already but my truck doesn't qualify for it apparently the downshifting is periodically it's not consistent

Ford dealership Jack Kissee in Claremore, OK is telling me my truck is 6k miles out of warranty for Recall 19N01. I have owned my 2013 F150 for less than 2 years with no knowledge of any previous recalls or repairs needed by Ford. This has not been an ongoing issue and has only happened within the last 1,000 miles I have put on my truck. Wrench light and icon pop up on the dash and puts the truck into limp mode until I can get pulled over and get the truck shut off. Safety risk to everyone on the rode. Please let me know if there is a way this Recall 19N01 can be covered. Thank you.

When putting truck in Reverse... Back-Up Camera goes Blank(Black-Out)

I keep seeing about the f-150/s being recalled for the rear view cameras not working but mine works and doesn’t works sometimes but keep being told that there is no recall but if you google any of the problems i have it is a reoccurring problem in other 2013 f-150s. Also problems with rear sliding heated back window the driverside shatters. The molded frame transmission needed repaired or replaced. Ecoboost leaking antifreeze behind passenger side front tire. The timing and phasers needing replaced. All are known common problems but ive been told are not recallable problems.

Seems to be a defect with the rear door saying it is ajar on the display screen also it wound lock or u lock with the key fob or PIN code. I have confirmed the door is completely shut. Defective wiring harness or something else may be the issue.

My vehicle's transmission is suddenly downshifting and should be included in the recall

2013 F-150 subject to Customer Satisfaction Program 19N01, Transmission Molded Leadframe Extended Coverage. Speedometer went to zero, airbag light illuminated, truck downshifted on its own with a sudden lunging feeling, as if I got rear ended. Wrench icon illuminated. Truck would not shift properly. Mileage indication went blank. I was doing 55 mph on the highway with other vehicles around me. Caused me to have to make an abrupt stop and almost caused an accident. Definitely put my safety and others at risk. Problem happened 3 times during my 1 trip. Was able to correct by turning vehicle off then back on. Can be reproduced easily. Not confirmed by dealer or maintenance tech, or inspected by anyone because I am afraid to drive it. There were no warning signs or symptoms before problem occured.

I was traveling 55 mph on highway when without any warning or hesitation the truck on its own down shifted to 2nd gear, resulting in the rear end of truck to swing all the way around turning me a whole 45 degrees! I was very lucky to have been able to pull out of the fish tailing act caused by the down shifted at such a high speed. I had to tow it home from there bc the transmission would then be stuck in 5th gear and randomly shift to 2nd with a bad jerking motion. My local ford dealership told me the recall has expired for my truck?!?!?

Transmision will suddenly down shift from 6th gear to 1st gear while traveling at speed of 50 - 60 miles per hour. Yes vehicle is available for inspection. Vehicles rearend locks up and causes loss of control of vehicle. Has not been inspected by a Ford dealer or independent. Vehicle has not been inspected by Manufacture, Police, insurance representatives or others. There were no warning lamps, messages or other symptoms of the problem prior to the failure. Problem started mid to late 2024.

The contact owns a 2013 Ford F-150. The contact stated while driving on several occasions at various speeds, the transmission unexpectedly downshifted to a lower gear and the vehicle lost motive power. The power train and check engine warning lights were illuminated. Additionally, when the vehicle downshifted, the information on the infotainment screen disappeared. The vehicle was restarted, and the screen reappeared. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The failure mileage was 116,000.

Mileage: 116,000

As I was pulling out onto the road it died blocking a 2 lane road at around 5AM so was pitch black luckily cars where paying attention & saw me I was able to roll it back off the road. Had a mechanic look at it after being towed back home he noticed fuse 27 was melted that is fuse for the fuel pump. Currently awaiting how much it will be to fix.

The lead frame on my truck has began to fail. Throwing the code p-0722. Yes it would be available for inspection upon request. The lead frame failing causes the truck to shift erratically. This was almost life ending when it shifted gears on the I-44 going 70 MPH. Nearly ending my life and that of my passenger. The problem has been reproduced by an independent service center. No it hasn't been inspected by police, insurance, manufacturer. No there were no warning lights before hand.

I have had a problem with the transmission molded lead frame 19N01 it also shows a wrench when this problem occurs. This caused my vehicle to not show the speed limit of my vehicle. It also caused my vehicle not be able to accelerate. I then worried about this problem due to this incident was on the highway and almost caused a crash.

I was driving on [XXX] in Georgia. I was going around 75 mph and my transmission dropped from 6th gear to 1st Gear my speed dropped from around 75 mph to 25 mph in less than a second. My safety and the safety of other vehicles/people were put in danger, I almost lost control of my steering and hit somebody in the right lane next to me. Three Vehicles behind me had to slam on their brakes and swerve around me to avoid rear ending me. When the vehicles transmission dropped gears rapidly, at the same time I got a gear wrench symbol across my cluster display, and I lost functionality of the vehicles mph gauge and gas gauge. The fasten seatbelt light was also on but no audible warning tone was heard.. The vehicle also lost acceleration power. I was able to get the vehicle home and turned the car on and off and everything went back to normal. This is an intermittent issue with no warning when it will happen. There was a recall from ford for a programming issue with the tranny and currently a CSP with campaign #19N01 for a Transmission molded leadframe extended coverage. Basically the lead frame needs to be replaced to correct the problem which is 4,000 to 6,000 dollars. Ford will not fix my lead frame because I am past certain dates and over the mileage by 2,200 miles. I also needed to be displaying symptoms and the code for ford to fix the issue if I was within dates and mileage. I didn’t display any codes or symptoms until I was 2,200 miles over the CSP warranty coverage. I also just bought the truck in September of 2024 and was not aware of this issue. I can’t express enough how dangerous going from 75 mph to 25 mph in a second on a busy freeway is. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)

Due to an unresolved issue that Ford motor company is aware of with the Transmission “Molded Lead Frame” the truck will drop down into 1st gear from highway speeds and causes a huge safety concern if there should be someone traveling behind me. The speedometer will stop working as well as the mileage will disappear off the screen/all other information will go blank. I will have to stop the truck, turn it off and back on again and it will drive normal. When I bring to dealer; they state ford should be covering this issue: when I contact ford I am offered no assistance or remedies. They referred me to bring this safety issue to your attention. It is very concerning and I cannot afford another car at the moment.

Vehicle would not start and left me stranded. There seems to be a known problem with the fuse opening on the ignition system that is contributed to poor engineering on Fords part. There is a bulletin within Ford on repair. This is a tremendous safety problem.

Driving on the highway and suddenly lost total power. RPMs dropped to zero, speedometer dropped to zero. Truck attempted to downshift immediately and caused the truck to jerk aggressively. All dashboard readings disappeared, mileage, etc. Wrench displayed on screen and airbag sensor lit up. Sudden downshifting of the vehicle and jerking could have caused a wreck or loss of control of the vehicle. Potential injury to passengers/children in vehicle. Pulled on side of road and turned off the vehicle. Restarted it with no lights on dash and gauges back to normal. "Limped" truck to the Ford dealership for inspection and it was confirmed to be the Lead Frame Sensor by stored code reading.

I lost my speedometer, mileage reading go out along with losing 1st 2nd and 6th gear. I got home turned it off and turned it back on and everything started working again. From what I read this is the same problem that ford had and did a recall on 1.2 million of the same year of truck. But my truck doesn’t show it was recalled

I took my 2013 Ford F150 in on Feb. 15, 2019 due to a recall. They reprogrammed the software, only took a few minutes. This is recall #19S07. It was due to the truck possibly shifting from any gear into first gear suddenly. Very dangerous. I did not have that problem before or since the recall until one week ago. Pulling onto the highway, RPM's went very high (3500-4000) even though I was only going est. 25 MPH. My speedometer showed "0". This problem comes and goes and now I feel completely unsafe driving my truck. I contacted Ford customer service and I do not think they will fix this unless I cover the tab. I feel that this is unfair. I have taken it in and left it all day but they did not get to it, my local Ford dealer is out until mid November for service. My truck now gets stuck in first gear or downshifts into first gear and the instrument display goes wacky, no speedometer, etc. I noticed a green wrench icon light up yesterday when this happened. Over 1.2 million F-150's had this problem. Over 100,000 trucks did not receive the proper PCU reprogram and need new reprogramming. I believe my truck is one of these as I am now having the exact issues that the recall was supposed to solve. Fortunately, I have not been travelling at high speeds when this happens but this problem can cause the transmission to shift from any gear at any speed into first gear, which could be life threatening. According to Ford, it is the powertrain control module software that causes this problem. Trucks built at Dearborn Assembly Plant, 4/28, 2010 to 10/28, 2013 and Kansas City Assembly Plant, 5/18, 2010 to 11/18, 2013 have this problem. My truck's manufacture date is March 2013 so it falls into both of these timeframes. I feel that this is a severe safety issue and could result in serious injury or even death. I think that because the 2019 service recall did not solve the issue, since my truck has these exact things going on with it, Ford is responsible. Thnx

My 2013 Ford F-150 SVT Raptor experienced the failure condition described in TSB 15-0137 causing sudden and complete loss of power, with no previous warnings, due to the fuel pump relay fuse holder melting and the fuel pump abruptly shutting off. This occurred while my son was driving the vehicle and while he did an admirable job of getting the truck off to the shoulder with no power, he was nevertheless on a freeway onramp around a blind turn with a merge where drivers were attempting to accelerate to highway speed, thus placing him in a dangerous situation for the hour or so it took to get a tow to the Ford dealer for repair. This failure mode (and subsequent repair) has had a TSB for 9 years and clearly has the ability to cause a safety concern, as it did in this case. Had I known about this TSB, I would have implemented it proactively given the severity of the potential failure and the high likelihood for it causing a safety issue. There are already dozens of complaints on this exact topic in NHTSA's database. Please consider elevating this safety-related defect to a full recall.

AN INTERMITTENT FAILURE OF THE OUTPUT SPEED SENSOR (OSS) IN THE TRANSMISSION MAY RESULT IN AN UNINTENDED DOWNSHIFT TO FIRST GEAR.

I was going 45 MPH several times and have had the truck shift to first, the last time was the last and it only has 3 gears when in limp mode

Engine shifted down one gear in the middle of the road while during normally. Almost caused me to loose control of vehicle. This had happen 3 or 4 times. Engine also gets “stuck” in 1st gear until electronic error message comes on dash. Then dash goes blank and then it runs fine. Requires me to restart the engine to fix the issue, however it happens 9/10 times while driving.

This has now happened countless times. The truck will be in a gear, as I naturally speed up, the transmission will jerk and the truck will get stuck in the following gear. The truck will then be stuck in that gear and will not downshift. A big wrench light comes on, then turns off about 10 seconds later. In addition, the odometer lists dashes (---,---), no mileage measures. The speedometer stays at 0 mph even when driving in the stuck gear. Another light stays on, I think it is the airbag image. Everything stays as is until I turn off the truck. Once I turn off and turn back on, everything goes back to normal. I've taken the truck to Ford, but because there are no "check engine" lights and there are no codes, Ford will not cover. My mechanic has confirmed (without any codes) that the recall is TSB16-0008, which was issued in March 2019. Since my truck is showing no codes, and my truck is over 10 years old, Ford says they will not cover. This is extremely concerning. If the truck downshifts on the highway, or refuses to downshift when needed, I could be in a serious accident. As mentioned, this has now occurred countless times.

I HAD NO PROBLEMS UNTILL I WENT TO VANDERHYDE FORD FOR A OIL CHANGE AND HAD THEM PERFORN TRANMISSION DOWNSHIFTING RECALL . WELL NOW IT IS DOING EXACTLY WHAT THE RECALL WAS TO MADE TO NOT LET IT DO DO .

THEY SAID THEY HAD A PROBLEM PREFORMING THE RECALL DO TO A REMOTE STARTER SYSTEM ON MY TRUCK . I AM A CERTIFIED TECH WITH ASE AND A PAST PARTS AND SERVICE MANAGER AND HAVE NEVER HEARD SUCH PROBLEMS FOIR ANY REPROGRAMMING RECALL. MY TRUCK HAS OVER 194,000 AND NEVER HAD ANY NTRANS PROBLEMS BEFORE RECALL . I CAN CLEAR CODES AND LET IT SIT AND DRIVES NORMAL WITH NO PROBLEMS AND THEY TELL MI IT WILL TAKE $2000.00 DOLLARS TO FIX THE PROBLEM THEY CREATED . SEVERAL OTHER REPORTS OF THIS ON INTERNET

The dash panel is periodically going blank and I noticed that this is a recall on the Fords in 2023. Is this the same issue on older models Fords F150 as well.

Strong Electrical burning smell coming through hvac system. Try to locate it. No luck. Also trouble with headlights turning on randomly. BCM? I don’t know. You almost pass out from the smell. This has been going on for at least two or three years.

2013 Ford F150 crew cab back window shatters when defroster activated. When I pushed the defrost button the window on the back drivers side shattered. This is a major safety concern.

Rear view camara some time work and some time go to blue screen O not showing nothing In general useless

We have had multiple occurrences of a dangerous situation on a 2014 F150. Vehicle died three times. Once at 65MPH, randomly shut off going down the road. After waiting for help for 30 mins, decided to try restarting, fired right up. Second time, I was 800 miles from home. Shut off vehicle after long highway run pulling trailer. Vehicle refused to restart, then after 30 mins or so restarted. Third time, I drove three blocks for fuel, at 3AM. Vehicle was dead on service station drive, refused to restart. Waited 90 mins for wrecker. Tried several times to restart, never did. When it unloaded from the wrecker, it fired right up. There were no warning lamps, check engine lights or any other indicator of impending doom. The safety of myself and others definitely was at risk. On the first occurrence I was in rush hour traffic with a dead vehicle. The second occurrence left me stranded in a remote location. The final occurrence left me stranded in the dark with a dead vehicle at 3AM. The issue is documented by Ford service bulletin TSB-15-0137. I find this to be a very disturbing situation, as the fuel pump fuse melts, causing a dead vehicle. The problem was diagnosed by an independent repair facility. The F27 fuel pump fuse is very well documented in F150 forums. I wouldn't want to endanger my spouse driving this in any traffic. It is a $20 part that should be a recall.

We are having downshifting issues and the speed is randomly changing. The truck came to a stop while still driving. The speedometer doesn’t reflect accurate to the truck speed.

Diagnosed by local goodyear service. The leadframe on transmission need replacing. Truck randomly shuts off, shifts wrong & dash lights are weird. Ford dealer says not a recall & truck is too old for extended warranty. Ford customer service says the same. And this isnt a safely issue?! Dealer says $700+ to fix. Just spent nearly $1800 to fix a broken leaf spring - in the middle layer of the spring - & truck has never been overloaded - Ford Company would not tell me if that had a recall because it was not diagnosed by dealer. It was rubbing on 1 of new tires good thing we did not have a blowout!

Felt the truck lurch, then airbag dash light came on, as well as the orange wrench light. Then, odometer and instant mpg read both read as zero even though I had a full tank and was going 55 mph. I couldn’t tell how fast I was going on the highway. Have not been to dealer yet, but found a recall online for the exact same problem to do with a 2013 recall on F150 for molded lead frame.

Every time I drive my truck, it has a hard time shifting from 1st gear. The gauges will go crazy then stop all together and it will go into what seems to be low power mode. Several times while driving, it will try to shift, and cause me to skid, or will not speed up above 10 to 15 mph.

I took my truck in a couple of weeks ago to get the recall done due to downshifting. Picked it up the next day and they told me they resolved the issue. The next day it happened again and it continued for a week. I called the dealership (Holmes Tuttle Ford) and they said they would charge me $200 plus maintenance fee even though it is a recall. Fast forward to today and my truck went out and will not start. Called ford and they informed me that although they cleared the recall they did not actually fix the problem because it was not present when they turned it on and told me I would have to repair it on my own even though they did not attempt to fix it.

The vehicle shifts into first gear on the freeway. There is a known problem with the conductor plate or flex plate and makes the outboard shaft speed sensor malfunction and the speedometer turns off often on the freeway. When it does this the truck thinks it has come to a stop and shifts down to first gear. Luckily I didn't drop my transmission on the freeway and I've researched this problem ahead of han accident but I know ford knows about this because every mechanic I've spoken to knows what the problem is when I tell them my 2013 f 150 has the conductor plate issue. Apparently they changed my year truck to a plastic plate....

While driving at highway speed 75mph our truck shut down with no warning. A wrench light came on with no other warnings. No check engine light no warning went from highway speed to limp mode zero power almost got rear-ended trying to make it off highway with no power. The problem is the throttle body has oil intrusion on the dry electrical side shorting out the motor with OIL! FORD could care less until someone gets killed they will deny any issues! I also have pictures of item full of oil! This is a no warning problem and ford cannot diagnose.

I have a Exhaust manifold leaking on the drive side lower back side. I'm scared it could catch my truck on fire if a backfire could happen while with my family with me

Complaint: Speedometer is not working, loss of function of speedometer while driving and Downshifting of the gear. The instrumental cluster showed a maintenance warning while driving in which will cause the speedometer to stop working. When trying to drive the vehicle on a stop position, there is a delay on the acceleration. Vehicle feels like it's on 2nd or 3rd gear. This may lead to loss of control on vehicle. I brought my vehicle to Ford service, I had them do a diagnose on my vehicle. The only issue they're able to find is the cooling system leak and rotor/brake pad replacement in which I ended up costing $3700. Knowing this would resolve the main issue. They had my truck for a month and after 24 hours of receiving my vehicle the main issue showed up and can't use it again due to safety issue. I believe the issue of my vehicle is part of 2013 Ford F-150 recall, but my vehicle has not received a recall. I believe this is the issue my vehicle experiencing below. recall no: 19V433000 recall no: 19V075000 How come Ford Service did not know about my vehicle issue when it is the 2013 Ford F150 Recall Problem. But they let me spend big bucks for nothing and still not to be able to use my vehicle until now.

I was driving home from work and speedometer stoped working. My truck downshifts with no warning. I don't know if this is a transmission issue. Would not show my speed also the gas gauge is always at half way. The truck is a danger and sits parked in my yard due to it being so unsafe. Why won't Ford fix their broken vehicles?

*cam shaft rattle on cold start up- started around 140,000 miles- safety issue *vacuum pump leaking causing other unknown problems, when running the heater and a/c, blows strong cloud of exhausted in the passengers face- safety and health issue *driver seat will not move- checked all power and seat motor- no issues found. dealerships unable to figure out issue. first the problem was intermittent now no movement - safety issue * A/c will not blow cold air, everything else works correct, full charge, fuse ETC. unable to find the issue. *PCM intermittent issues. safety issue *BCM- unknow if this is causing the problem Most of these issues are not throwing check engine light, they only say to check voltage. I have contacted several dealerships who agree that this is a on going issue with this make, model and several years. ford found the issue and corrected on newer model but refuses to help with the ones on the road.

Took my vehicle in for 145,000 mile check. Informed the gas pump fuse relocation was not performed, started to melt. For the fix I was asked to pay $336. This an electrical and fuel issue. It is a known issue by Ford. Should this not be a recall, if it is a safety concern?

On my way to work I turned on the rear defrost and heard a loud bang after 15 minutes. I pulled over to see what had happened and the read driver side windshield pain had shattered. it remained in the laminate but I got a replacement quote and its almost $1000 dollars. After doing research this is a major problem with the defrost mechanism on these trucks with no known fix. I'm glad it stayed in take but the glass is continuously cracking as I drive and i cannot get the repair done until Thursday and the dealer said they can do nothing except replace the glass and hope it doesn't happen again.

lIGHT COMES ON, AND YOU LOSE POWER , WITHIN 10 MIN. YOU HAVE POWER BUT NO INTEROR LIGHT, DASH, SPEED ETC. I had the work done on the transmission , to take care of the problem..What I want to know if this pertains to any recalls. I found there were 2- recalls and I was never notifyed by Ford

01 Apr 22, vehicle was received from Penske Ford after coolant leak to include scheduled maintenance such as engine oil and filter change, engine air filter, transfer case fluid change, drive belt, front differential fluid change and lastly the transmission fluid and filter change. Mileage in was at 156877 and mileage out from the services was 156879. Approximately 6,000 miles added from the mileage counter, the vehicle experienced sudden downshift with speedometer dropping to zero and passenger airbag caution illuminated on the dashboard. Upon reading the code via the OBD2 code reader, the following DTC were noted: p0720 output shaft speed sensor circuit; p0722 Output Shaft speed sensor circuit no signal; U0401:00-0B Invalid Data received from ECM/PCM A; B00A0:68-8B - Occupant Classification System; U0401:68-0B Invalid data received from ECM/PCM A; U0401:00-0A. Safety risk was the sudden down shift while going at normal speed or flow of traffic. Sudden downshift can result into a rear end collision. The vehicle has not been inspected since the malfunction however, through research of TSB 19N01 and contacting the dealership, it was determined that the extended warranty did not apply due to the mileage exceeded the 150,000 therefore I ended up buying and fixing my own vehicle with current mileage of 163421.4 at completion. This vehicle was also recalled for 19NS19 because of 6R80 transmission. I am unsure if this warrants another recall however, it is my belief that it should be looked at again.

The truck will suddenly down shift while I'm driving .speed omitorr shuts down. As well when this happens please let me know if you need any thing else

the gears automatically changed while in motion driver at risk of loss of control of vehicle and pedestrians in residential area at risk of contact symptoms cannot be duplicated and verified by manufacturer vehicle has been inspected by local auto diagnostic repair buisness warning error displayed on driver console of 'open wrench' indication of random electrical or mechanical error

The contact owns a 2013 Ford F-150. The contact stated while driving 55 MPH, the instrument cluster went blank and the vehicle stalled. The contact stated that the powertrain warning light was illuminated. The contact was able to coast into a parking lot. The contact stated that he turned off and restarted the vehicle several times and the instrument cluster turned on and operated as needed. The contact shifted to drive and while driving there was an abnormally loud clunking sound coming from underneath the vehicle. The contact was able to drive to his residence; however, the failure reoccurred several times while driving. The dealer was notified of the failure and an appointment was scheduled for a diagnostic test and repair. The contact associated the failure with Ford Customer Satisfaction Program: 19N01. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 133,000.

The 4wd differential lock button malfunctions and turns the differential lock on randomly. The button is fully pressed in and not engaged. The housing is loose.

We accelerated onto the freeway and the engine revved extremely high. We started experiencing lulls in speed and the transmission was shifting unexpectedly or not at all when it should have. You could feel stutters and bumps while the truck was driving on the flat surface of the freeway. The truck started to go into limp mode on the freeway so we had to pull over.

The wrench came on speedometer wasn't working acted like it wasn't shifting correctly turn signals wouldn't turn off after completing a turn and fuel mileage wasn't working looked in owners manuel found it says power train malfunction/reduced power contact authorized dealership as soon as possible

Driving down highway at 65 miles per hour the truck lurched forward and acted like it had a total loss of power. The speedometer dropped to 0 and stayed. The airbag light came on. The truck downshifted from 6 gear to 1 st gear instantly , throwing the truck into a slide. I lost control of it , went into a ditch came back up on the road as it proceeded to lurch forward and stop consistently like it was possessed ! I threw it into neutral and as the motor was redlining as well. The center info screen went blank and a wrench appeared on it to the right. I drove to my work in 3 rd gear and it shifted up to 5 th. But would not shift down up past that. I had it towed to the only dealer that worked on transmission recalls. I paid 65$ to have it towed. They did the reprogramming as per Ford. I got it back a month later. Worked great for 4 days then on my way to a tire rotation at 71 mph it did it again . Downshifted to 1 st. Violently. This time I almost got hit by a semi truck! Had it towed again , cost me 90$ this time. Same place. They got in a fix part for it some ring assembly that goes in transmission. Gonna cost me over 370$ for certain parts the recall won’t cover. We will see if this fixes it

The contact owns a 2013 Ford F-150. The contact stated that while driving at an undisclosed speed, the vehicle lost motive power. The vehicle was towed to the dealer; however, it was not diagnosed nor repaired. The contact related the failure to a faulty fuse and replaced the fuse relocation kit; however, the failure recurred. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure and a case was opened. The failure mileage was approximately 181,000.

The lower left hand corner of the passenger side rear window started to smoke and burn from the rear window defrost mechanism. Smoke was seen and the rear window defrost was turned off. The window then shattered. I had a child sitting in front of this area but no injury was sustained. I have not had the vehicle serviced for this issue at this time.

Fuse for fuel pump keeps burning out causing engine to shutdown or not start at all. Smell wire burning smell when opening hood to check fuses. Am afraid this will eventually cause a fire in fuse box. Looked up videos on YouTube and it states that Ford recommends rerouting fuse port but this is electrical in nature and could cause a fire or perhaps other mechanical failures. I am not a mechanic nor do I have financial means to pay someone to reroute a bad fuse port which can eventually cause a fire.

lost all of the electrical power to my truck as I was going to drop it off at the dealership for a recall. On my way there my truck downshifted into first gear over revved the motor and caused it to shut the motor down and loss of the computer as well. I had it towed to my local shop. I called Ford to see what they want me to do next and said to have it towed there and I did .Ford cant get power to the truck because there motor is no good. ford also tells me that the oil is way over full. but I know it wasn't over full it holds 6 quarts of oil and I know that.so they state that the oil is over filled and blew the truck up. but the problem is the computer and in that event caused the motor to blow up and push gas and break fluid into the motor truck only has 80,000 miles on it. this I feel as a manufacturers default and frontier ford of Anacortes WA. And ford itself only honors there own techs so they are going by what they say. I have been dealing with this for almost 7 months with out a truck witch has cost me a job and among other issues and loses. feel as they didn't honor or care about the customer or even looking into the dealership that has my truck. when I asked to seek with a supervisor I was told they are no supervisor available and that they would call me back i have still never heard from them. How long must I be without a truck or a jib because they aren't doing there job correctly and making my life here impossible to get a head in such hard time as it is. Thank you [XXX]. L look forward to hearing from you. INFORMATION Redacted PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6).

The contact owns a 2013 Ford F-150. The contact stated that after his wife had driven the vehicle for an hour, she had shut off the vehicle; once she returned to the vehicle, the vehicle failed to restart without warning. Due to the failure, the vehicle was towed to a dealer where a diagnostic determined that burnt wiring in the fuse box had prevented the vehicle from starting. The contact also spoke to the manufacturer and they referred him to NHTSA for assistance. The vehicle had yet to be repaired. The failure mileage was approximately 154,000.

I was driving at about 30-35mph and my truck shifted into 1st gear unexpectedly. I have started to notice it doesn’t shift quite like it supposed to.

This truck was driven daily and has been owned since new. No aftermarket accessories, all stock. The truck was parked in my warehouse over the weekend. When I returned on Monday morning I found the dashboard burned and melted, airbag deployed, and headliner scorched. I believe the airbag extinguished the fire and kept it from spreading outside the truck and possibly destroying my business. The truck has not been inspected by anyone other than mechanics working on quotes to repair it. The truck is still at my business and available for your inspection. There were no warnings of any kind.

Driving at any speed, the "Ford wrench" appears in the gauge cluster, the speedometer goes to zero, transmission gear light does not respond to speed changes (slowing down or speeding up), airbag light comes on, all other indications blank out; i.e. fuel mileage, miles to go before empty, etc. Does not throw engine codes to find with normal OBD reader. Changed out throttle body but did not fix issue. Detailed sources saying its a transmission problem with the PCM or transmission lead frame and that Ford knows about it but will not put out a safety recall to get it replaced. Safety put at risk due to already recalled problem of sudden downshift to 1st gear. Ford recalled with a reprogramming of the PCM to fix this issue but unsure if it actually fixed due to the above happening. Obviously, this is bad. Paraphrasing, Ford Dealer says if they cant observe it, it doesn't exist. No warning lamps appeared before everything happened, in first paragraph above, all at once.

THE REAR WINDOW DEFROSTER STOPPED WORKING (WINTER). IN RESEARCHING THE PROBABLE CAUSE OF THE REAR DEFROSTER ISSUE WE FOUND OVER THE PAST SEVERAL YEARS THERE HAVE BEEN COUNTLESS STORIES & POSTS FROM AROUND THE COUNTRY DETAILING SPECIFICALLY THE ISSUE WE WERE EXPERIENCING WITH THE DEFROSTER AND REALIZING THIS WAS A KNOW ISSUE WITH THIS VEHICLE. THERE WERE COUNTLESS STORIES, MANY HARROWING ACCOUNTS OF BROKEN REAR WINDOWS DUE TO THE NATURE OF THE ENGINEERING TO REPAIR AS WELL AS WAY TOO MANY STORIES WITH CUSTOMERS HAVING TO DEAL WITH LOCAL AND NATIONAL FORD REPRESENTATIVES TO TRY TO ADDRESS THE OBVIOUS ENGINEERING ISSUE. WHILE I MAY AGREE THIS MAY BE A PERSONAL OBSERVATION, THERE ARE WAY TOO MANY OCCURRENCES OF THIS PROBLEM OCCURRING ACROSS MULTIPLE MODEL YEARS FOR FORD LEADERSHIP TO NOT BE CONCERNED WITH THIS ISSUE AND DOING SOMETHING TO FACILITATE THE CORRECTIVE ACTIONS TO ADDRESS THE DEFECT.

WHILE DRIVING FROM OHIO BACK TO NORTH CAROLINA, MY WIFE AND I WERE TRAVELLING AT 75 MPH WHEN SUDDENLY AND WITHOUT WARNING MY TRUCK ABRUPTLY STALLED TO 5 MPH WITH NO POWER FROM THE ACCELERATOR. I MANAGED TO GET THE TRUCK OUT OF THE HIGH SPEED LANE ON A TWO LANE HIGHWAY AND ON TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD. I TURNED THE TRUCK OFF. A FEW MINUTES LATER, I TURNED THE TRUCK BACK ON AND ALL FUNCTION RESUMED. THIS HAS HAPPENED IN THE PAST, BUT WHEN I TOOK IT IN FOR WORK THERE WAS NO ISSUE REPORTED OR READ AND THE ERROR COULD NOT BE REPLICATED. THE TRUCK WAS TOWED TO A FORD DEALERSHIP. SERVICE INFORMED ME I HAD A BAD THROTTLE BODY. THIS TRUCK WAS PART OF A "CUSTOMER SATISFACTION PROGRAM" RUN IN 2013 FOR A BAD THROTTLE BODY AND TOTAL LOSS OF ACCELERATION. MY TRUCK RECEIVED THE REPAIR IN 2014 VOIDING THE THROTTLE BODY 10 YEAR OR 150,000 MILE WARRANTY. THE SAFETY CONCERN REMAINS AND IS ENDANGERING MY LIFE, MY WIFE, AND OUR FUTURE CHILD. THE PART MIGHT BE REPLACED WITHOUT FIXING THE PROBLEM. AN ELECTRICAL ISSUE MAY KEEP THIS VEHICLE HAVING REOCCURRENCES. THIS HAS ME VERY CONCERNED ABOUT A SERVICE THAT DOES NOT INCREASE VEHICLE SAFETY. AND BECAUSE OF THAT CONCERN I BEGAN TO INQUIRE IF ANYONE ELSE HAS HAD THIS ISSUE. IT TURNS OUT THAT IN 2015 A CLASS ACTION SUIT WAS FILED AGAINST FORD AND SETTLED ON INDIVIDUAL BASISES (JANIS BENKLE ET AL V FORD MOTOR COMPANY). CURRENTLY, THERE ARE NO PROGRAMS TO ASSIST OWNERS LIKE MYSELF IN THIS SITUATION. THE ORIGINAL PROGRAM IS NO LONGER VALID AND THE REPAIR PERFORMED WAS ONLY GOOD FOR ONE TIME (THAT REPAIR APPARENTLY WOULD NOT SOLVE THE SAFETY CONCERN AS OTHERS HAVE STATED THAT THE PROBLEM PERSISTED AFTER A NEW THROTTLE BODY WAS PUT IN). I HAVE SOUGHT OUT AN AUDIENCE WITH THE "ZONE MANAGER". HOWEVER, I HAVE BEEN INFORMED THAT IS IMPOSSIBLE AS CUSTOMER CARE WILL NOT GIVE THAT INFORMATION AND NEITHER WILL THE DEALERSHIP.

LATER THAT DAY I WAS DRIVING HOME FROM WORK, GOING ABOUT 40MPH, AND MY VEHICLE WENT INTO LIMP MODE. I HAD TO PULL OVER AND RESTART MY TRUCK. IT DID LIKE 3 TIMES ON THE WAY HOME.

AN ELECTRICAL PROBLEM IN THE EPAS UNIT HAS RESULTED IN THE LOSS OF POWER STEERING IN MY 2013 FORD F-150. VEHICLE HAS 63,000 MILES AND HAS NO ACCIDENTS AND HAS NOT BEEN SUBJECT TO ABNORMAL DRIVING CONDITIONS. THE PROBLEM PRESENTED ITSELF WHEN THE WEATHER BECAME COLD DURING THE FALL OF 2019. WHEN OUTSIDE TEMPERATURES DROPPED BELOW 65 DEGREES AND I STARTED MY VEHICLE I RECEIVED A "POWER STEERING ASSIST FAILURE" WARNING AND THE VEHICLE DID NOT HAVE POWER STEERING. TESTING OVER A 4 WEEK PERIOD AS THE OUTSIDE TEMPERATURE FLUCTUATED BETWEEN 40-80 DEGREES ALLOWED ME TO SEE THE CONNECTION TO THE POWER STEERING FAILURE AND THE OUTSIDE TEMPERATURE. ADDITIONALLY, WHEN THE OUTSIDE TEMPERATURE WAS CLOSE TO, BUT DID NOT EXCEED 65 DEGREES. I COULD START MY VEHICLE AND DRIVE IT AROUND, THE HEAT FROM THE ENGINE WOULD WARM THE UNIT ENOUGH TO ALLOW IT TO WORK. ALL I NEEDED TO DO WAS TURN THE VEHICLE OFF AND THEN BACK ON AND THE POWER STEERING WOULD WORK. AFTER READING ABOUT ALL THE RECALLS FORD HAS ISSUED RELATED TO THEIR EPAS UNIT I BELIEVE THERE IS SYSTEMIC PROBLEM WITH THE PART. ADDITIONALLY, THIS PART CANNOT BE SERVICED AND REQUIRES A FULL REPLACEMENT. PART COST IS $1500 PLUS 2-3 HOURS OF LABOR. PUTTING THE TOTAL COST TO REPAIR AT $1800 - $1900 IN MY AREA.

I STARTED MY TRUCK AND THE WRENCH LIGHT CAME ON. THE TRUCK WAS IN LIMP MODE AND WOULD NOT ACCELERATE. I RESTARTED THE TRUCK AND WAS ABLE TO PULL IT BACK IN THE DRIVEWAY. I PLUGGED IN AN OBD CODE READER AND IT GAVE A P2112 "THROTTLE ACTUATOR CONTROL SYSTEM STUCK CLOSED." UPON SOME RESEARCH I FOUND SEVERAL MODELS BETWEEN 2011 THROUGH 2015 HAVE HAD SIMILAR ISSUES CAUSING DANGEROUS SITUATIONS ON THE HIGHWAY. THE ISSUE WAS MOVING WHEN IT FIRST OCCURRED, BUT THANKFULLY IT WAS JUST OUTSIDE MY DRIVEWAY, I HADNT MADE IT TO THE HIGHWAY YET. I RESTARTED THE TRUCK, AND WAS ABLE TO PARK IT IN THE DRIVEWAY.

WHEN ENTERING ONTO THE INTERSTATE I FELT THE TRUCK WAS NOT GETTING UP TO SPEED. I THEN NOTICED ON MY DASHBOARD A BIG WRENCH. I FELT MY TRUCK CONTINUE TO NOT GAIN SPEED EVEN THOUGH I WAS STEPPING ON THE GAS.THE SCREEN THEN WENT BLACK AND AND WHEN THE DASHBOARD CAME BACK ON I HAD NOTHING SHOWING. NO MPH ,FUEL ECONOMY, ETC AND I WAS STUCK IN 5TH GEAR.I COULD NOT INCREASE SPEED BUT ONLY DECREASE IF I STEPPED ON THE BREAK.I DON'T KNOW HOW FAST I WAS GOING BUT IT WAS NOT FAST AT ALL SINCE EVERYONE WAS PASSING ME(MAYBE 40 MPH).I ALSO NOTICED MY AIRBAG LIGHT WAS ON. I HAD TO PULL OVER ON THE INTERSTATE AND RESTART MY TRUCK.ONCE I DID THAT EVERYTHING CAME BACK ON AND WORKED FOR THE REST OF THE RIDE. I WAS RECENTLY PART OF A FORD RECALL BUT HAD THAT FIXED.I HAD THE AUTOMATIC DOWNSHIFTING HAPPEN TO ME 3 TIMES BEFORE THE FIRST RECALL WAS IN PLACE. I JUST GOT A LETTER LAST WEEK THAT THEY NEED TO REDO THE RECALL, I HAD THE DOWNSHIFTING HAPPEN TO ME AND THIS WAS NOT IT. THIS IS A ENTIRELY DIFFERENT SAFETY ISSUE THAT IS MAKING ME AFRAID TO DRIVE MY OWN TRUCK SINCE MOST OF MY TIME IS ON THE INTERSTATE. PHOTOS ARE ATTACHED OF WHAT WAS HAPPENING TO ME ON THE INTERSTATE.

I'M CALLING THIS A SAFETY ISSUE DUE TO ERRATIC UNLOCKING OF DRIVER DOOR. DOOR WHEN OPERATED BY REMOTE TO UNLOCK, MOST TIMES NEEDS 2 ACTUATIONS, OF HANDLE TO ACTUALLY OPEN BY USER. MY WIFE AFTER SHOPPING FELT A PRESENCE AND TRIED TO ENTER OUR VEHICLE AND WAS BADLY FRIGHTENED WHEN SHE COULD NOT ENTER IMMEDIATELY SHE PULLED ON HANDLE WITHOUT OPENING DOOR AND THOUGHT SHE HAD NOT ACTUATED THE REMOTE CORRECTLY SHE PREFORMED THE ACTION TO UNLOCK AND HAD TO PULL DOOR HANDLE 2 TIMES TO ENTER AND LOCK IT TO FEEL SAFE. HE VEHICLE WAS STATIONARY AND I DON'T KNOW IF THIS FITS THE STANDARD FOR A SAFETY ISSUE. IT SEEMED LIKE IT AT THE TIME. DEALER WANTS A DIAGNOSTIC CHARGE TO REMEDY WHICH I THOUGHT WAS UNFAIR VEHICLE HAS 82,000 MILES

TRAVELING 50 MPH ON A 4 LANE ROAD WHEN ENGINE SHUT OFF. HAD POWER TO VEHICLE BUT NO STEERING OR BRAKES. I WAS ABLE TO GET OFF THE 4 LANE HIGHWAY SUCCESSFULLY. THE TRUCK WOULD TURN OVER BUT NOT CRANK, AFTER SITTING 90 MINUTES, IT CRANKED. TOOK TO FORD DEALERSHIP THE NEXT MORNING. THEY SAID IT WAS THE #27 FUSE THAT CONTROLS THE FUEL PUMP. PUT A KIT IN TO MOVE THE #27 FUSE TO AN ISOLATED LOCATION SO IT WOULDN'T GET HOT AND MALFUNCTION. THE COST WAS $250. I ASKED IT THERE WAS A RECALL AND THEY SAID NO. I SAID SOMEONE IS GOING TO GET KILLED BECAUSE THIS IS DANGEROUS. THE RESPONSE WAS WE HAVE BEEN GETTING A LOT OF THESE. I WAS LUCKY AND WAS ABLE TO GET OFF THE ROAD. THE NEXT PERSON MIGHT NOT BE AS LUCKY. SOMETHING NEEDS TO BE DONE BEFORE SOMEONE IS FATALLY INJURED.

I WAS DRIVING ON THE FREEWAY IN THE FAST LANE. SUDDENLY THE WRENCH WARNING LIGHT AND CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON, AND THE CAR EXPERIENCED WHAT APPEARED TO BE A TOTAL LOSS OF ENGINE POWER. I PLACED THE HAZARD LIGHTS ON AND WAS ABLE TO NAVIGATE TO THE SHOULDER, WITH 18 WHEELERS AND OTHER CARS TRYING TO REACT TO MY SUDDEN LOSS OF POWER AND SPEED. AFTER TURNING THE CAR OFF, AND RESTARTING IT, IT APPEARS OK TO PROCEED. THIS SAME INCIDENT HAS HAPPENED NOW 8 TIMES IN THE LAST FEW DAYS. I TOOK THE CAR INTO FORD AND THEY ARE CLAIMING IT'S AN ISSUE WITH THE THROTTLE BODY. I MENTIONED THAT I SEE A THROTTLE BODY RECALL FOR 2015-2016 F-150'S, BUT FORD IS DENYING THE ISSUE, INDICATING THERE IS NO RECALL FOR MY 2013. I FIND MANY COMPLAINTS IDENTICAL TO MINE FOR F-150'S EARLIER THAN 2015. THEY ALSO CLAIM FORD DENIES THE ISSUE AND REFUSES TO FIX THE PROBLEM. MOST ALSO REFERENCE CONCERN FOR A SIGNIFICANT SAFETY ISSUE, FEELING THAT FORD WILL ONLY FIX THIS ONCE PEOPLE DIE. I TOOK MY F-150 TO THE LOCAL FORD DEALER TODAY AND THEY VERIFIED IT WAS THE THROTTLE BODY, AND ARE CHARGING ME $650 TO FIX IT. I HAVE READ FROM OTHERS THAT THE COMPONENT USED TO FIX THE PROBLEM IS THE ORIGINAL FAULTY COMPONENT, SO THERE IS NO REASON TO FEEL THAT THE PROBLEM WILL NOT HAPPEN AGAIN EVENTUALLY. I HAVE EXPERIENCED FOUR TIMES ON THE FREEWAY AT 65MPH, AND SEVERAL TIMES ON CITY STREETS AT 30MPH. I WAS DRIVING STRAIGHT, NOT BRAKING.

Mileage: 50,000

I RECEIVED NOTICE OF RECALL TO SCHEDULE REPAIR (SOFTWARE) UPGRADE. I CONTACTED THE DEALER SEVERAL TIMES TO ONLY BE TOLD TO KEEP CALLING BACK TO SEE IF THEY HAVE RECEIVED THE SOFTWARE UPGRADE FROM FORD. THEY SAID THERE IS NO PROBLEM WITH CONTINUING TO DRIVE THE TRUCK UNTIL THE PROBLEM IS REPAIRED.

I WAS ON MY WAY TO WORK AS A FIREFIGHTER FOR MY SHIFT WHEN WITH NO WARNING MY TRUCK WENT FROM HIGH GEAR STRAIGHT DOWN TO FIRST GEAR THEN TO PARK CAUSING SUDDEN STOP AND A MINOR ACCIDENT ON I275 CINCINNATTI THEN COMING HOME IT INSTANTLY WENT INTO PARK ON US ROUTE 50 CAUSING MY TRUCK TO GO OUT OF CONTROL AND SWERVED OVER INTO THE ONCOMING LANE ALMOST HITTING SOMEONE HEAD ON THEN COULD NOT MOVE THE TRUCK AS IT WAS STUCK IN PARK SITTING SIDEWAYS BETWEEN BOTH LANES I FINALLY WAS ABLE TO GET IT TO MOVE AGAIN BUT IT BARELY MOVED AS IT WAS IN HIGH GEAR STUCK THERE. I WAS ABLE TO BARELY REMOVE IT FROM THE ROAD AND HAD TO HAVE A TOW TRUCK RETRIEVE IT AND BRING IT TO MY HOUSE THIS IS A REAL SAFETY ISSUE THAT FORD IS NOT IN A HURRY TO FIX ON A RECALL ISSUE ON THE TRANSMISSIONS THEREFORE LEAVING ME WITHOUT A TRUCK OR VEHICLE TO DRIVE ALMOST HAD A SERIOUS CRASH TWICE NOW. PLUS MY TRANSMISSION IS COMPLETELY OUT OF MY TRUCK NOW NO MOVEMENT FOR ANY LOADING ETC.

I RECEIVED MY FORD RECALL NOTICE ON THE NEED TO REPROGRAM POWER TRAIN MODULE ON OR ABOUT APRIL 1ST 2019. MY FIRST INSTANCE OF MY 2013 F150 STX SUPERCAB, GOING INTO SUDDEN DOWNSHIFT MODE AND THEN LIMP MODE (BLUE WRENCH SIGNAL) OCCURRED AROUND APRIL 12, 2019. I WAS DRIVING AT ABOUT 30 MILES AN HOUR ON A CITY STREET WHEN MY TRUCK WHEN THE TRUCK DOWNSHIFTED BY ITSELF AND THE BLUE WRENCH LIGHT APPEARED. MY TRUCK WENT INTO LIMP MODE AND I WAS UNABLE TO DRIVE. AFTER PULLING OVER TO THE SIDE OF THE STREET, I TURNED OFF MY TRUCK, WAITED A FEW MINUTES AND THEN THE ISSUE RESOLVED ITSELF. I TOOK MY VEHICLE INTO THE FORD DEALERSHIP ON APRIL 18, 2019 WHERE RECALL 19S07 6R80 (REPROGRAM POWER TRAIN MODULE) WORK WAS COMPLETED. ON MAY 17, 2019, WHILE DRIVING ABOUT 30 MILES AN HOUR ON A CITY STREET (WITHOUT NOTICE OR CAUSE) MY TRUCK AGAIN WENT INTO DOWNSHIFT MODE, LIMP MODE AND THE BLUE WRENCH LIGHT CAME ON. SAME AS THE FIRST INSTANCE, I PULLED OVER TO THE SIDE OF THE STREET, TURNED OFF MY TRUCK, WAITED A FEW MINUTES AND WHEN I TURNED ON THE TRUCK AGAIN THE ISSUE WAS RESOLVED. IT WAS CLEAR THAT THIS ISSUE WAS ELECTRICAL AND NO MECHANICAL AND THE ORIGINAL RECALL WORK COMPLETED BY THE DEALERSHIP DID NOT RESOLVE THE ISSUE. ON 05/19/2019, I AGAIN TOOK MY TRUCK TO THE FORD DEALERSHIP WHERE THIS TIME THE MODULE LEAD FRAME WAS REPLACED AFTER CODE P0722 WAS IDENTIFIED. I WANT THE RECORD TO REFLECT THAT THE FIRST RECALL, REPROGRAMMING OF THE POWER TRAIN MODULE DID NOT WORK, AND LEFT ME AT RISK OF A SECOND DOWNSHIFTING INCIDENT OCCURRING. MY TRUCK HAD A SECOND INCIDENT AND AFTER RETURNING TO THE DEALERSHIP A SECOND TIME THE LEADFRAME WAS REPLACED. I ALSO WANT TO NOTE THAT THE DEALERSHIP'S DATA THAT THE ORIGINAL RECALL WORK WAS COMPLETED ON 04/26/2019 IS INACCURATE. THE ORIGINAL RECALL WORK WAS PERFORMED BY THE DEALERSHIP ON 04/18/2019.

MY TRUCK FAILED TO START, AND WHEN I INVESTIGATED THE ISSUE I FOUND FUSE 27 (LOCATED IN THE BATTERY JUNCTION BOX AT THE FRONT OF THE ENGINE BAY) MELTED CAUSING CIRCUIT FOR THE FUEL PUMP TO OPEN WHICH LEFT THE TRUCK WITHOUT A FUNCTIONING FUEL SYSTEM (FUSE 27 IS PART OF THE CIRCUIT FOR THE FUEL PUMP). REPLACING THE DAMAGED FUSE RESOLVED THE ISSUE WHILE A MORE ROBUST SOLUTION IS DETERMINED. IF THIS HAD HAPPENED DURING OPERATION THE VEHICLE WOULD HAVE LOST POWER, BEEN UNABLE TO STEER DUE TO AN ELECTRIC ASSISTED STEERING SYSTEM AND BECOME A HAZARD FOR OTHER VEHICLES WHILE PUTTING THE OCCUPANTS OF THE TRUCK, AND ANY VEHICLE THAT COLLIDES WITH IT, AT RISK FOR INJURY OR DEATH. FORD ISSUED A TECHNICAL SERVICE BULLETIN (TSB 15-0137), BUT THIS IS NOT COMMONLY KNOWN OUTSIDE OF VEHICLE-SPECIFIC SOCIAL MEDIA PLATFORMS ON THE INTERNET (HTTPS://WWW.FORD-TRUCKS.COM/FORUMS/1449733-TSB-15-0137-FUEL-PUMP-FUSE.HTML). FORD KNOWS ABOUT THE ISSUE AND THE CONSEQUENCES ARE OBVIOUS. THE FIX FORD RECOMMENDS IS INEXPENSIVE (UNDER $30 IN PARTS) AND NOT VERY TIME CONSUMING (0.6 FLAG HOURS).

DRIVING ON MAJOR HIGHWAY, 65-75 MPH, LOST ENGINE POWER AND HAD TO PULL OVER, TRYING NOT TO CAUSE A WRECK, AND STOPPED BETWEEN BUSY HIGHWAY AND ON-RAMP TO THE HIGHWAY. FOUND THAT THE ENGINE HAD STALLED AND WOULDN'T RESTART. FOUND #27 FUSE MELTED. CHANGED FUSE AND WAS ABLE TO RESTART ENGINE. I DON'T LIKE REPAIRING FORD'S ENGINEERING MISTAKES, NOR DO I LIKE BEING PUT IN DANGER BECAUSE OF THEM. I USE THIS TRUCK FOR WORK AND HAVE A LIFETIME'S ACCUMULATION OF SPECIALTY TOOLS KEPT IN THIS TRUCK FOR MY JOB. IF THE TRUCK GOES UP IN FLAMES, WILL FORD REPLACE WHAT IS LOST? THE WAY THIS FUSE, FUSE BOX, AND THE CONNECTION HAS FAILED LOOKS AS THERE CAN POTENTIALLY BE A FIRE. IN MY CASE, THERE WAS AN INTERRUPTION IN NORMAL TRAFFIC FLOW, AT HIGH SPEED, THAT COULD A RESULTED IN A WRECK, INJURY, DEATH, ETC. I WILL FIX THIS, PROBABLY ON MY OWN DIME. WHAT I DON'T UNDERSTAND IS WHY IS THIS NOT REQUIRED TO BE FIXED BY FORD. IT'S AN OBVIOUS SAFETY HAZARD THAT EVEN FORD HAS ACKNOWLEDGED AND PROVIDED A TSB TO ADDRESS THE PROBLEM.

APPROXIMATELY TWO MONTHS AGO I PURCHASED A USED 2013 FORD F-150 FROM A LOCAL DEALERSHIP IN WARREN, MICHIGAN. RECENTLY I RECEIVED A NOTICE IN THE MAIL DETAILING A RECALL REGARDING VEHICLES EQUIPPED WITH A 6R80 TRANSMISSION ' SUDDEN DOWNSHIFT (SAFETY RECALL 19S07). AFTER RECEIVING MY POWERTRAIN CONTROL MODULE SOFTWARE UPDATE APPROXIMATELY TWO WEEKS AGO FROM SZOTT FORD IN HOLLY, MICHIGAN, I EXPECTED MY TRANSMISSION TO RUN SMOOTHLY. SIX DAYS AGO, WHILE PULLING THROUGH A BUSY INTERSECTION, MY VEHICLE WOULD NOT LEAVE FIRST GEAR. SOMEHOW, I AVOIDED BEING HIT FROM CROSSING TRAFFIC. SHORTLY AFTER AVOIDING AN ACCIDENT, THE VEHICLE THEN SWITCHED ABRUPTLY FROM FIRST GEAR TO FIFTH GEAR (GOING AROUND 10 MPH). AFTER PULLING INTO A PARKING LOT I TURNED THE CAR OFF. WHEN I RESTARTED THE CAR, IT STARTED IN FIFTH GEAR. THE CAR WOULD NOT GO INTO MANUAL AND WOULD NOT LEAVE FIFTH GEAR. AT NO POINT DURING THIS TIME DID AN ENGINE LIGHT COME ON. AFTER SWITCHING THE CAR INTO FOUR-WHEEL DRIVE EVERYTHING SEEMED TO BE WORKING SMOOTHLY AGAIN. I IMMEDIATELY TOOK MY CAR INTO THE DEALERSHIP ONCE AGAIN. THE DEALERSHIP HAS INFORMED ME THAT EVERYTHING IS WORKING PROPERLY AND SINCE NO ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON THERE ARE NO PROBLEMS TO DIAGNOSE OR FIX. SAFETY RECALL 19S07 DID NOT FIX THIS VEHICLES ISSUES. LAST NIGHT THE SAME THING HAPPENED AGAIN. IT WOULD NOT LEAVE 1ST GEAR. I PUT THE CAR IN PARK AND THE CAR WOULD SIT IN SECOND GEAR THEN JUMP TO 5TH GEAR. VERY DANGEROUS PULLING OUT IN FRONT OF ANYTHING BECAUSE THE CAR BASICALLY STALLS IN ONCOMING TRAFFIC. SAFETY RECALL 19S07 DID NOT WORK.

THURSDAY MORNING 12-6-18 IT WAS ABOUT 0 DEGREES FAHRENHEIT I STARTED MY TRUCK AND TURNED ON THE REAR WINDOW / MIRROR DEFROSTER. I WAS ABOUT 2 MILES FROM THE HOUSE WHEN I HEARD A BANG COMING FROM MY BACK SEAT AREA ON THE DRIVERS SIDE IT WAS LOUD ENOUGH THAT IT MADE ME JUMP. AT THE TIME I COULD NOT FIGURE OUT WHAT IT WAS BUT MY REAR DEFROSTER WOULD NO LONGER WORK. I MESSED AROUND WITH IT A FEW TIMES BUT IT WOULD NOT LIGHT THE DASH LIGHT. LATER ON AS THE SUN WAS SHINING JUST RIGHT I NOTICED THE DRIVERS SIDE OF MY BACK WINDOW WAS SHATTERED. AT THAT POINT IT ALL BECAME CLEAR TO ME WHAT THE NOISE WAS AND WHERE IT HAD COME FROM. F150 BACK GLASS SHATTERED WITH REAR DEFROSTER ON.

Mileage: 38,120

ON THE 2012 AND 2013 MODEL YEAR F150 WITH REAR WINDOW DEFROST IT IS VERY COMMON FOR THE ELECTRICAL WIRING OR CONNECTION TO FAIL AND LITERALLY BLOW OUT THE BACK WINDOW. IT ALSO AFFECTS THE HEATED MIRRORS IF THE TRUCK HAS THAT OPTION TOO. WHEN THE REAR WINDOW BLOWS OUT IT CAN LITERALLY BLOW HOLES PUT OF THE GLASS. WITH KIDS HAVING TO RIDE IN THE BACK THIS IS NOT SAFE. THE REAR DEFROST WILL WORK FINE OR MALFUNCTION A COUPLE TIMES AND THEN WILL EVENTUALLY FAIL AND BREAK/BLOW THE WINDOW OUT. IT IS A VERY WELL KNOWN PROBLEM THAT FORD IS DOING NOTHING ABOUT. I'VE CONTACTED FORD AND THEY REFUSE TO FIX IT.

2013 F150 DOWNSHIFTED FROM 6TH GEAR TO 1ST GEAR WHILE TRAVELING APPROXIMATELY 50 MPH. THIS RESULTED IN THE TIRES LOCKING UP AS IF I HAD SLAMMED ON THE BRAKES. IT NOW CONTINUES TO SHIFT ERRATICALLY FROM 1ST TO 6TH TO 3RD. IT ALSO GETS STUCK IN 1ST GEAR AND THEN WILL RANDOMLY SHIFT NORMALLY AND THEN DOWNSHIFT BACK TO FIRST GEAR. THIS HAS BEEN HAPPENING FREQUENTLY FOR SOME TIME WITH HARD SHIFTING BUT THIS IS THE FIRST TIME IT HAS DROPPED FROM 6TH GEAR TO FIRST GEAR. THIS IS DEFINITELY A SAFETY ISSUE AND I AM FINDING IT DIFFICULT TO HAVE ANY NEARBY FORD DEALERSHIPS TAKE A LOOK AT IT WITHIN THE NEXT TWO WEEKS.

TAKATA RECALL , THE REAR DEFROST DOES NOT WORK AND IT HAS HAPPENED TO MULTIPLE PEOPLE WHERE THE REAR GLASS EXPLODES. I HAVE DISCONNECTED THE CABLE CONNECTING THE REAR DEFROST TO STOP IT FROM HEATING UP BUT IT IS A COMMON ISSUE ON 2013 FORD F-150 TRUCKS. IF THE CABLE CONNECTING THE REAR DEFROST BEHIND THE DRIVER SIDE IS DISCONNECTED THE LIGHT FOR THE REAR DEFROST WORKS AND THE SIDE MIRRORS WORK BUT ONCE CONNECTED AGAIN NOTHING WORKS

THREE TIMES IN THE LAST TWO MONTHS THIS HAS HAPPENED TO ME. WHILE ACCELERATING FROM A STOP ON A CITY STREET THE TRUCK WILL JERK FORWARD AND BACKWARD CHIRPING THE TIRES LIKE IT'S SLIPPING GEARS. WHILE THIS IS HAPPENING IF I GIVE IT GAS EITHER IT WON'T REV UP OR IT WILL REV UP BUT NOT ACCELERATE ALMOST LIKE IT'S IN NEUTRAL. ALSO, THE SPEEDOMETER DROPS DOWN TO ZERO AND BOUNCES UP AND DOWN EVEN WHILE THE TRUCK IS MOVING WHEN THIS HAPPENS. MY WIFE REFUSES TO DRIVE THE VEHICLE UNTIL THE PROBLEM IS CORRECTED AND QUITE FRANKLY I DON'T FEEL SAFE DRIVING IT EITHER. I FIND IT TERRIBLE THAT FORD HAS NOT INCLUDED THE 2013 VEHICLES INTO THE RECALL OF THE EARLIER MODELS SUFFERING FROM THE SAME DEFECTS.

Mileage: 76,000

THE FUEL MANAGEMENT SYSTEM BLEW THE FUSE. I LOOKED ONLINE AND SAW WHERE MANY PEOPLE HAVE HAD THIS HAPPEN AND FORD HAS A SERVICE ADVISORY ISSUED FOR THIS PROBLEM BUT CHARGE THE OWNER WITH MAKING THE CORRECTION TO THE DEFECTIVE WIRING. THEY DO NOT SIMPLY REPLACE THE MINI 10 AMP FUSE BUT INSTEAD REPLACE A PART OF THE WIRING AND RELOCATE IT TO A STANDARD 20 AMP FUSE. WHEN I EXPLAINED MY CONCERN ABOUT ENGINEERING A FUEL MANAGEMENT SYSTEM FOR A 10 AMP RATING AND SWITCHING IT TO THE 20 AMP WHICH COULD ALLOW OTHER PARTS OF THE SYSTEM TO OVERLOAD HE BASICALLY TOLD ME THAT FORD HAD DECIDED THIS WAS HOW THEY WOULD FIX THE PROBLEM BUT NOW I HAVE THE CONCERN OTHER COMPONENTS OF THE SYSTEM FAILING AND SURE ENOUGH IT WAS LESS THAN TWO WEEKS LATER THE FUEL PUMP DRIVER MODULE FAILED CAUSING MY VEHICLE TO STOP RUNNING. THE SERVICE MANAGER ALSO TOLD ME I WAS LUCKY AS HE HAD SEEN TOTAL MELT DOWNS OF FUSE PANELS FROM THIS DEFECT. THIS HAS COST ME $805 IN REPAIRS DUE TO A FAULTY WIRING DESIGN. THE VEHICLE WAS STATIONARY AT THE TIME, ONCE IN A PARKING LOT AND ONCE IN MY DRIVEWAY.

I SHUT MY ENGINE OFF, DUMP TRASH AND IT WOULD NOT START. THE ENGINE TURNED OVER, BUT NOT START. WAITED A FEW, MINUTES, STARTED UP. NEXT DAY, THE ENGINE SHUT OFF WHILE DRIVING, GOT IT OFF THE ROAD, WAITED A FEW MINUTES, STARTED UP. BEFORE I COULD GET HOME, THE ENGINE DIED AGAIN. FINALLY RESTARTED IT GOT IT HOME AND HAD IT TOWED TO A FORD DEALERSHIP. AFTER WAITING 5 DAYS FOR REPAIR I INFORMED THE SERVICE MANAGER WHAT I THOUGHT THE PROBLEM WAS AFTER READING 17 PAGES OF 56, I FOUND 11 INSTANCES THAT MIRROR MY PROBLEM. BURNT FUEL PUMP FUSE. HAD TO BE RELOCATED AT A COST OF $249.19. THIS IS VERY DANGEROUS.

VEHICLE POWER SUDDENLY SHUTDOWN WHILE DRIVING DOWN THE FREEWAY. AFTER PULLING TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD, ENGINE WOULD ONLY IDLE. ENGINE WOULD NOT REV UP TO A HIGHER RPMS. VEHICLE REQUIRED TOWING TO A REPAIR CENTER. THE FOLLOWING 2 ISSUES WERE FOUND: 1. THROTTLE BODY NEEDED REPLACED. 2. FUEL PUMP ELECTRICAL CIRCUIT WAS HEAT DAMAGED. THE REPAIR CENTER TOLD ME THEY ARE STARTING TO SEE MORE OF THESE TYPE OF ISSUES ON THESE VEHICLES. THE REPAIR CENTER MOVED THIS CIRCUIT AWAY FROM THE HEAT SOURCE CAUSING THE DAMAGE. THIS APPEARS TO BE A DESIGN ISSUE WHICH COULD POSE A SAFETY PROBLEM. A RECALL SHOULD BE ISSUED FOR THIS PROBLEM.

ONCE THE TRUCK IS IDLING, AFTER A FEW MOMENTS A WRENCH LOGO IS DISPLAYED AND ALL THE TACH GAUGES TURN OFF AND THE ACCELERATION IS SLUGGISH. SOMETIMES WHEN DRIVING THE TRUCK DOESN'T LEAVE 1ST GEAR OR IT'LL BOUNCE AROUND GEARS. WHEN THE TRUCK IS TURNED OFF AND THEN TURNED BACK ON, EVERYTHING CAN GO RIGHT BACK TO NORNAL. HAVING THIS ISSUE IS A MAJOR SAFETY ISSUE IF THE VEHICLE STALLS IN TRAFFIC OR WORSE. MANY REPORTS ARE MADE ON THE INTERNET'S AND I HAVEN'T SEEN A RECALL. FUNNY HOW THE 2011-12 MODELS HAVE AN OASIS ON IT BUT NOT THE 2013 GRANTED IT'S PLAGUED BY THE SAME ISSUE.

WHILE DRIVING TO WORK TODAY, AND MAKING A RIGHT HAND TURN, MY VEHICLE COMPLETELY SHUT OFF. THAT IS, THE ENGINE DIED, THE POWER STEERING DIED, AND THE BRAKES DIED WHILE THE TRUCK CAME TO A COMPLETE STOP IN THE MIDDLE OF THE LANE. LET ME REITERATE - THE TRUCK COMPLETELY DIED IN THE MIDDLE OF THE ROAD AND THERE WAS A COMPLETE LOSS OF CONTROL OVER THE VEHICLE. HAD THERE BEEN ANOTHER VEHICLE, OBJECT, OR PERSON IN FRONT OF ME, I WOULD HAVE LIKELY COLLIDED WITH THEM (THANKFULLY THE ROAD WAS EMPTY) RESEARCH HAS LEAD ME TO FIND THAT THIS IS A KNOWN ISSUE WITH FORD AND THE F150 SERIES FROM YEARS 2010 TO APPROXIMATELY 2014. FUSE NUMBER 27 IN THE ENGINE FUSE BOX IS UNDERSIZED FROM THE FACTORY AND MELTS DUE TO THE INABILITY TO HANDLE THE AMPERAGE. I FOUND MINE MELTED AFTER TODAY AS WELL. FORD HAS "ADDRESSED" THIS ISSUE WITH A TSB (FORD TSB-15-0137 SEE ATTACHED) WHICH IT CHARGES CUSTOMERS FOR TO REPLACE THE FUSE AND WIRING FOR THE FUSE WITH A NEW, UP SIZED FUSE AND WIRES. THEY DO NOT COVER THIS FREE OF CHARGE UNLESS YOUR TRUCK IS UNDER WARRANTY. AS THIS IS A GLARING SAFETY ISSUE THAT NUMEROUS PEOPLE HAVE REPORTED, I ASK THAT THE NHTSA INVESTIGATE THIS AND HAVE FORD INITIATE A RECALL ON THE AFFECTED VEHICLES, AND MAKE THE REPAIR FREE OF CHARGE TO CUSTOMERS. THIS ISSUE IS A MANUFACTURING FLAW AND ONE THAT HAS THE ABILITY TO CAUSE LOSS OF LIFE AND PROPERTY DUE TO FAILURE TO CONTROL THE VEHICLE.

REMOTE STARTED THE VEHICLE AT NIGHT, AROUND 7:30 PM ON A 23 DEGREE TEMPERATURE NIGHT IN CENTRAL INDIANA. WE THEN GOT INTO THE VEHICLE ROUGHLY 5 MINUTES LATER. BOTH DOORS WERE THEN CLOSED AND THE KEY WAS PUT INTO THE IGNITION. ONCE THE KEY WAS IN THE IGNITION, WE HEARD A VERY LOUD "BANG" NOISE COMING FROM THE REAR OF THE VEHICLE. WE NOTICED THE DRIVER'S SIDE 1/3 OF THE POWER SLIDING REAR WINDOW WAS SHATTERED. WE EXITED THE VEHICLE TO INSPECT THE DAMAGE. NOTHING WAS PRESENT IN THE BED OF THE TRUCK TO CAUSE US TO BELIEVE SOMETHING HAD HIT IT. UPON FURTHER INVESTIGATION ONLINE AND A CERTIFIED MECHANICS OPINION, IT HAS COME TO OUR ATTENTION THAT THIS IS A "COMMON" ISSUE WITH FORD F-SERIES TRUCKS. THE REAR DEFROST MECHANISM BECOMES TOO HOT DURING REMOTE START AND CAUSES THE TEMPERED GLASS TO BECOME UNSTABLE AND SHATTER.

THE SUNROOF WOULD HAVE NEVER WENT BAD HAD THE APIM UNIT NOT MALFUNCTIONED BECAUSE WE NEVER OPENED IT BEFORE THE UNIT WENT BAD. TOTAL COST OF MY REPAIR 2400 FOR SUNROOF AND 1000 FOR APIM UNIT REPLACEMENT. THIS IS A SAFETY HAZARD BECAUSE YOU HAVE TO DRIVE WITH ALL WINDOWS DOWN AND IT GETS SO HOT YOU WILL FEEL SICK.

I HAVE HAD REAR WINDOW ISSUES SINCE I BOUGHT THE TRUCK. FIRST WAS WHEN THE REAR DEFROST/MIRROR DEFROST WASN'T WORKING. THEY REPLACED THE WINDOW IN 2014. SECOND TIME WAS IN APRIL OF 2017. WE HAD A HEAVY FROST AND I COULDN'T SEE OUT THE BACK WINDOW OR THE SIDE MIRRORS, SO I TURNED ON THE DEFROST. ABOUT TEN MINUTES LATER I WAS DRIVING DOWN THE HIGHWAY AND HEARD WHAT SOUNDED LIKE A GUNSHOT. I IMMEDIATELY STARTED LOOKING AROUND THINKING SOMEONE SHOT AT ME. I DIDN'T REALIZE RIGHT AWAY DUE TO THE REAR HEADREST COVERING A LARGE PORTION OF THE WINDOW, THAT THE DRIVERS SIDE STATIONARY SECTION OF THE BACK WINDOW HAD EXPLODED. THE GLASS STAYED INTACT, HOWEVER TINY SLIVERS OF GLASS FELL ONTO MY DAUGHTERS CAR SEAT WHICH WAS IN FRONT OF THIS WINDOW. FORD DID REPLACE THE WINDOW, RELUCTANTLY AND I PAID AN INSURANCE DEDUCTIBLE, EVEN THOUGH THE INTERNET IS FULL OF PEOPLE HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM. I RECENTLY WENT TO TURN ON MY REAR DEFROST AGAIN, AND FOUND THE SAME ISSUE AS THE FIRST PROBLEM, WHERE THE DEFROST WONT WORK AND THE LIKELY FIX IS REPLACING THE REAR WINDOW. THIS WILL BE THE FOURTH WINDOW IN FOUR YEARS. IS THIS SOMETHING I SHOULD EXPECT TO DO LIKE OIL CHANGES AND TIRES? THIS IS RIDICULOUS. THE EXPLODING WINDOW CAN REALLY BE AN ISSUE. SOMEONE MAY PANIC AND THINK ITS A GUNSHOT, AND CAUSE AN ACCIDENT OR IF SOMEONE WAS SITTING THERE, THEY COULD GET GLASS SLIVERS ON THEM. THIS APPEARS TO HAVE BEEN A KNOWN ISSUE FOR YEARS WITH THESE WINDOWS. WHY HAVEN'T THEY BEEN FORCED TO REDESIGN IT?

2013 FORD F-150. CONSUMER WRITES IN REGARDS TO DEFECTIVE WATER PUMP. *LD THE CONSUMER STATED THE WATER PUMP FAILED AT 60,000 MILES. THE BATTERY BECAME LOW AT 65,000. THE GUAGES WERE ILLUMINATED EVEN THE VEHICLE WAS OFF. AFTER SOME RESEARCH, THE CONSUMER DISCOVERED THE FAILURE WAS WITH THE SWITCH IN THE SHIFTER. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED. UPDATED 11/15/2017*JS

WITHIN 5 MINUTES OF STARTING THE VEHICLE I SMELT A BURNING PLASTIC ODOR WHILE ENTERING THE HIGHWAY. ONCE ON THE HIGHWAY I NOTICED MY A.C. WAS NOT WORKING, I ROLLED DOWN MY WINDOW AND ATTEMPTED TO TURN UP THE BLOWER SPEED. SHORTLY AFTER SMOKE STARTING BLOWING OUT FROM THE VENTS, THE DEFROST AREA, AND AROUND THE TOUCH SCREEN. WITHIN MINUTES THE SMOKE WAS THICK AND GREEN WITH AN ELECTRICAL FIRE ODOR. (I COULD IDENTIFY THIS AS I AM CERTIFIED THROUGH THE STATE OF MISSOURI, FIREFIGHTER 1 AND 2). I USED MY LEFT BLINKER TO PASS A VEHICLE TO EXIT THE HIGHWAY, THE SMOKE INTENSIFIED TO WHERE I COULDN'T SEE OR BREATHE. I EXITED THE HWY. I PARKED IN A PRIVATE LOT AND EXITED THE VEHICLE AS MELTING FLAMING PLASTIC WAS DRIPPING AT MY FEET, AND OPENED THE HOOD. NO FLAMES PRESENT UNDER THE HOOD. I LOOKED THROUGH THE PASS. WINDOW AND FLAMES WERE POURING FROM UNDER THE DASH WITH A STARTING POINT OF THE CENTER OF THE DASH AREA. WITHIN MINUTES THE VEHICLE WAS FULLY INVOLVED.

I PRE-STARTED MY TRUCK THIS MORNING 10/19 W/ AUTOSTART ON FOB. THE TRUCK WAS STATIONARY. I LOADED BOTH MY 1 YR OLD AND MY 3 YEAR OLD INTO THEIR CAR SEAT AND WENT BACK INTO HOUSE TO GRAB MY RAINCOAT. WHEN I RETURNED THE EXTERIOR NEAR BOTTOM LEFT REAR GLASS WAS SIGNIFICANTLY SMOKING/SMOLDERING. 2 SECONDS LATER A SMALL 2-3' FLAME STARTED IN THE SAME AREA ON THE WEATHERSTRIP. I TURNED MY TRUCK OFF. I HAPPENED TO HAVE MY PHONE IN HAND AND VIDEO TAPED THE MOMENTS FOLLOWING. THE FLAME SELF-EXTINGUISHED AND SHORTLY AFTER CAKE A LOUD BANG. IN LINE WITH THE SOUND OF A SMALL CALIBER HANDGUN. THE SOUND WAS THE BACK GLASS EXPLODING. LUCKILY THE TINT KEPT THE GLASS SHEET INTACT. THIS IS THE 2ND TIME THIS HAS HAPPENED. 1ST WITH NO KIDS IN THE CAR ON 12/15. FIRE WAS NO LESS THAN 12' FROM MY SONS HEAD, HAD THE POWER NOT BEEN SECURED THERE WOULD HAVE BEEN A SIGNIFICANT CHANCE OF RUNNING UP THE COMBUSTIBLE WEATHER-STRIP AND POTENTIALLY IGNITING THE VEHICLE CABIN. I FEEL I AM ABLE TO MAKE THIS CLAIM BASED ON THE FACT I AM EMPLOYED AS A CAREER MUNICIPAL FIREFIGHTER. THIS IS UNNACEPTABLE FOR ANY TRUCK ESPECIALLY ONE WITH 44,500 MILES. THE ONLY WAY FORD WILL INVESTIGATE IS FOR ME TO PAY FOR THE COST OF DIAGNOSTIC. NOT COVERED UNDER WARRANTY.

ON A TRIP, SEPTEMBER 20TH GOING TO THE SMOKY MOUNTAINS, OUR 2013 FORD F-150 PICKUP TRUCK SUDDENLY LOST POWER. WE WERE ON MILE MARKER 295 EASTBOUND ON INTERSTATE 40, IN THE LEFT SIDE PASSING LANE GOING ABOUT 55 MPH UP A HILL. THE ENGINE STOPPED WITH NO WARNING. THE DASH SCREEN FLASHED A PICTURE OF A WRENCH AND THEN SAID "LOW OIL PRESSURE." THE OIL PRESSURE GAUGE SHOWED NO PRESSURE. I THOUGHT THE ENGINE HAD BLOWN. AS I TRIED TO NAVIGATE TO THE RIGHT SIDE OF THE ROAD, WHILE ON A HILL, MANY SEMI-TRUCKS SLAMMED ON THEIR BRAKES TRYING TO AVOID MY TRUCK PULLING A 5TH WHEEL TRAILER. WE MIRACULOUSLY AVOIDED A POSSIBLE MAJOR ACCIDENT. ULTIMATELY WE LEARNED IT WAS A SMALL $0.50, NUMBER 27, 20 AMP FUSE TO THE FUEL PUMP THAT CAUSED THE ENGINE TO STOP. WE WERE STUCK ON THE SIDE OF THE ROAD FOR 2 HOURS UNTIL WE COULD GET A TOW TRUCK FOR BOTH OUR TRUCK AND 5TH WHEEL. FORD IS AWARE OF FUSE 27 (FOR FUEL PUMP) FREQUENTLY MELTING. THEY EVEN HAVE A RELOCATION KIT TO MOVE THE FUSE WHEN IT MELTS DUE TO OVERHEATING BECAUSE OF ITS LOCATION. IN OUR CASE THIS NEARLY CAUSED AN ACCIDENT INVOLVING SEMI TRUCKS.

AS I AM DRIVING THE 2013 FORD F-150 RAPTOR 6.2L THE GEARS SEEM TO BE OFF, IF I AM DRIVING ONLY 30MPH THE GEAR IS AT 6. ALSO THE MORE DANGEROUS AND SCARY THING IS THAT IT SHIFTS DOWN WITHOUT ANY WARNING, I WAS TRAVELING ABOUT 35MPH AND THE GEAR SEEM TO SHIFT DOWN TO 1 LOCKING MY REAR TIRES AND MAKING ME SKID ALMOST CAUSING THE VEHICLE BEHIND ME TO RUN INTO ME. THE TIRES LOCKED ALMOST AS IF I PUT THE BRAKES ON. I'M GLAD I WAS ONLY GOING 35MPH BUT WHAT IF I'M GOING 80, THIS WOULD BE A MORE DANGEROUS AND SCARY SCENARIO. IT ALSO HAPPENED WHEN I TURNED ON TO A STREET AND AS I STARTED TO ACCELERATE IT DROPPED MY GEAR TO 1, LOCKED MY WHEELS AND ACTED LIKE IT DIDN'T WANT TO SHIFT OR ACCELERATE , I PULLED OFF TO THE SIDE OF ROAD, I SAT THERE FOR A FEW MINUTES WONDERING WHAT HAPPENED AND WENT ON MY WAY NERVOUS IF IT WILL HAPPEN AGAIN, WHICH IT DIDN'T AND MADE IT HOME. NEXT DAY I TOOK TO FORD AND THEY SAID THEY CANT DUPLICATE THE ISSUE SO THERE IS NOTHING WE CAN DO. THIS IS SCARY , I DON'T FELL SAFE WITH ME AND MY SON IN THIS VEHICLE.

MY LOCAL FORD DEALERSHIP IS CHARGING ME $2000 FOR A STEERING GEAR THAT THE INTERNAL MODULE WENT BAD. FROM MY RESEARCH, THIS IS A VERY COMMON ISSUE WITH THE 2013 MODEL AND IS A RECALL ON THE 2014 MODEL. ITS AN INCREDIBLY DANGEROUS SITUATION WHEN IT HAPPENS. YOU COMPLETELY LOOSE POWER STEERING AND GET 3 SEPARATE WARNINGS ON THE DASH. I CAME WITHIN INCHES OF HITTING ANOTHER VEHICLE IN A PARKING LOT YESTERDAY. PROBLEM IS, ITS SPORADIC, YOU NEVER KNOW WHEN ITS GOING TO HAPPEN. I CALLED FORD AND THEY, BASICALLY, TOLD ME ITS NOT A RECALL BECAUSE THERE WASN'T SIGNIFICANT "INJURY OR LOSS OF LIFE" FROM THIS ISSUE....BUT, I GUESS THERE WAS ON THE 2014 AND UP MODELS... THIS IS OUTRAGEOUS!! THIS NEEDS TO BECOME A RECALL IMMEDIATELY! HOPE YOU GUYS CAN LOOK INTO THIS AND, HOPEFULLY, SAVE THE LIVES THAT FORD IS NEEDING IN ORDER TO FIX THIS ISSUE.

THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO THE DEALER WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT A FUSE MELTED INSIDE THE FUSE BOX. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 42,564.

3.5 V6 ECOBOOST FIRE. COMPLETELY BURNED MY TRUCK TO THE GROUND WITH MY FAMILY DRIVING IN, WIFE AND 5 YR OLD. PASSENGER SUFFERED 3RD DEGREE BURNS, 12/10/2016. TRUCK WAS IN MOTION, WE SMELT SMOKE AND WITHIN 2 MINUTES THE TRUCK WAS COMPLETELY ENGULFED.

A CRITICAL 20 AMP FUSE THAT GIVES POWER TO THE FUEL RELAY WHICH POWERS THE FUEL PUMP BLEW RENDERING MY VEHICLE IN OPERABLE. IT WOULD NOT START AT ALL. THIS IS A KNOWN ISSUE TO FORD MOTOR COMPANY. THEY HAVE A TSB ALSO KNOWN AS A TECHNICAL SERVICE BULLETIN 15'0137. THIS "FIX" MERELY RELOCATES THE FUSE SO THAT THE KNOWN POTENTIAL FOR FAILURE DOES NOT MELT THE FUSE HOUSING. THIS DOES NOT SOLVE THE PROBLEM OF WHY THE FUSE IS BLOWING. THIS SERVICE IS ALSO NOT COVERED; AS THE DEALER EXPECTS ME TO PAY FOR THE FIX. THE FUSE HOUSING ON MY TRUCK IS MELTED AND CHARD FROM THE FAILED FUSE . TO ME THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE BOTH FOR THE POTENTIAL OF FIRE AND LOSING PROPULSION DUE TO THE CONSEQUENTIAL LOSS OF FUEL TO THE ENGINE .

MY 2013 FORD F-150 RAPTOR HAS HAD TWO COMPLETE BURNED UP MASTER FUSE BOXES OCCUR ON MY TRUCK. THE ORIGINAL ONE BURNED OUT AND MELTED AT 36K MILES ABOUT A YEAR AGO. FORD COVERED IT UNDER FACTORY WARRANTY. THIS SECOND ONE HAS JUST BURNED UP AT 80K. SAME EXACT THING. THERE IS A SERIOUS DEFECT ON THIS VEHICLE. THIS IS ALSO AN ISSUE WITH MANY 2013 MODEL FORD RAPTOR F-150. ACCORING TO ONLINE REPORTS AND VARIOUS DEALER COMMENTS. FOR SAFETY PURPOSES THIS IS A SEVERE ENOUGH AND CONTINUAL ISSUE THAT A RECALL NEEDS TO BE MADE. FOUR PEOPLE I KNOW WHO HAVE OWNED THIS TRUCK BETWEEN 2011-2013 HAVE ALL HAD THE SAME ISSUE. VEHICLE WILL NOT START OR OPERATE WHEN THIS ISSUE OCCURS IT'S ABNORMAL TO HAVE SUCH AND ISSUE WITH A SAFETY RISK AND THE POTENTIAL OF THE VEHICLE CATCHING FIRE. IT HAPPENS SO OFTEN APPARENTLY THERE IS A MAJOR BACK ORDER ON THE FUSE BOX REPLACEMENT. LAST TIME I WAS TOLD IT WOULD TAKE 6MONTHS TO GET THE PART.

STARTED TRUCK WITH REMOTE(FOB), YESTERDAY MORNING. I NEEDED TO DEFROST MY WINDOWS AS WELL. ON MY WAY TO WORK,TWENTY MINUTES LATER, I HEARD WHAT SOUNDED LIKE A GUN BLAST. I THOUGHT SOMEONE HAD SHOT MY TRUCK OR THREW A ROCK. I LOOKED IN MY REARVIEW WINDOW AND THE REAR DRIVER SIDE WINDOW WAS SHATTERED. I PULLED INTO A PARKING LOT AND NO SIGNS OF IMPACT BY A FOREIGN OBJECT. THE WINDOW WAS COMPLETELY SHATTERED. AFTER RESEARCHING THIS, I SEE THAT THIS SEEMS TO BE A DEFECTIVE DEFROSTER CONTRIBUTING TO SPONTANEOUS SHATTERING OF REAR WINDOWS ON THE F150. I CALLED THE DEALER AND THEY'RE GIVING ME "I'VE NEVER HEARD OF THIS" I'M NOT BUYING IT. ALSO, IF THIS HAD HAPPENED TODAY, MY SMALL CHILD WOULD HAVE BEEN SITTING RIGHT THERE. THIS IS NOT OKAY AND FORD SHOULD REPAIR THESE FOR CUSTOMERS. *TR

DURING THE START UP OF MY 2013 FORD F-150, I PROCEEDED TO UTILIZE THE REAR DEFROSTER TO GET THE ICE OFF THE REAR WINDOW. THE REAR WINDOW IS COMPRISED OF 3 PANELS OF GLASS, ONE ON EACH SIDE AND THE SLIDING WINDOW IN THE CENTER. LAST WEEK, THE REAR DEFROSTER WORKED INTERMITTENTLY, AFTER SEVERAL ATTEMPTS AT DEPRESSING THE BUTTON IT WOULD EVENTUALLY TURN ON, NOT A WEEK LATER IT DOES NOT WORK AT ALL. THINKING IT WAS POSSIBLY THE FUSE OR A PROBLEM WITH THE BUTTON ITSELF, I SEARCHED ONLINE TO FIND OUT IF THERE WAS SOMETHING I COULD DO, AND FOUND THAT THIS IS A COMMON ISSUE AND REQUIRES REPLACEMENT OF THE ENTIRE BACK GLASS AND THAT SOME HAD THIS COVERED UNDER WARRANTY. I CALLED THE FORD DEALERSHIP AND TALKED TO THE REPAIR DEPARTMENT AND WAS TOLD BY THE MANAGER THAT HE HAS THE SAME VEHICLE AND THE SAME PROBLEM AND THAT THE ONLY WAY TO GET THE REAR DEFROST TO WORK IS TO REPLACE THE ENTIRE BACK GLASS AND THAT THE COST IS AROUND $2200. SEARCHING ONLINE ON THE F150 FORUM BOARDS FINDS THAT THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM AND THE FIX IS REPLACEMENT OF THE ENTIRE BACKGLASS. BECAUSE MY VEHICLE HAS 50,000 MILES AND IS PAST THE 36,000 MILES OF THE WARRANTY IT IS NOT FORDS PROBLEM. AS THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE (VISIBILITY THROUGH BACK GLASS) I SEARCHED ON THE GOVERNMENTS RECALL WEBSITE HERE AND FOUND SIMILAR COMPLAINTS AND THAT MANY HAVE ALSO EXPERIENCED THE WINDOWING CRACKING, SPIDERING AND EXPLODING WHEN USING ' WHICH TELLS ME DO NOT TURN ON THE REAR DEFROST FOR FEAR OF A BROKEN WINDOW EXPLODING WHILE IM DRIVING. THIS IS A SAFETY HAZARD AS IT DISTORTS AND SKEWS MY VISION AND ABILITY TO SEE OUT OF IT SAFELY UNTIL I CAN ATTEMPT TO HAVE FORD RECTIFY THIS ISSUE. *TR

INTERMITTENT REAR DEFROSTER ON OCCASION. WHILE SITTING IN DRIVEWAY ATTEMPTING TO GET REAR DEFROSTER TO OPERATE THE BACK DRIVERS SIDE GLASS SHATTERED. SOUNDED LIKE A BULLET/ROCK HIT WINDOW BUT IMPOSSIBLE DUE TO DIRECTION OF WINDOW AS IT WAS FACING THE BACK OF THE GARAGE. SEEMED ODD BUT WHEN I INVESTIGATED THROUGH MY DEALERSHIP THEY CLAIMED TO HAVE HEARD OF THE REAR DEFROSTER CAUSING THIS BUT BECAUSE IT WAS GLASS AND NOT COVERED TO CONTACT FORD. I CONTACTED FORD AND THEY ADVISED ME THAT NO RECORDS OF ANYTHING LIKE THIS WERE ON FILE AND THAT THERE WAS NO WAY TO PROVE THAT THE WINDOW WAS BROKEN BY THE DEFROSTER THUS IT WAS NOT COVERED BY MY WARRANTY OR EXTENDED WARRANTY. SINCE THIS IS A POWER THREE GLASS WINDOW WITH DEFROSTER IT WILL NEED FULL REPLACEMENT AT A COST OF OVER $1000 WITH NO GUARANTEE IT WILL NOT HAPPEN AGAIN.

I BOUGHT MY TRUCK NEW FROM THE DEALER 2013. I'M CONSISTENT WITH ALL THE UP KEEPS OF MY TRUCK. HOWEVER, MID AUGUST 2016, I NOTICED THE TRUCK HESITATED TO START AT THE BEGINNING WHILE IN STATIONARY POSITION FOR A FEW DAYS, THEN OUT OF NOWHERE FROM ONE DAY TO THE NEXT, THE ENGINE DIDN'T START IN THE MORNING AGAIN WHILE IN STATIONARY POSITION AND THEN THE ENGINE LIGHT CAME UP! I BOUGHT A NEW BATTERY THINKING THAT MAYBE IT NEEDED TO BE REPLACED, EVEN WITH THE NEW BATTERY THE TRUCK FAILED TO START IN STATIONARY. AFTER THAT, I TRIED STARTING MY TRUCK FOR TWO CONSECUTIVE DAYS, BY THE THIRD DAY THE TRUCK STARTED! I DROVE IT IMMEDIATELY TO AUTOZONE BUT NOTHING CAME UP WRONG WITH IT? SO, I DROVE IT BACK HOME. A WEEK LATER, I HAD NO PROBLEMS WITH THE TRUCK, LIKE NOTHING EVER HAPPEN. THEN, YESTERDAY ALL OF A SUDDEN I WAS DRIVING HOME, WHILE IN MOTION THE ENGINE DIED IN THE MIDDLE OF TRAFFIC ON A CITY STREET, SO I PULLED OVER TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD AND IMMEDIATELY ATTEMPTED TO RESTART THE TRUCK AS IT CONTINUED TO HESITATE. FINALLY, AFTER 10 MINUTES THE TRUCK STARTED AND I DROVE TO AUTOZONE AND AGAIN NOTHING CAME UP WRONG WITH IT. SO I DROVE IT BACK HOME. THEN, TODAY, WHICH IS SEPTEMBER 2, 2016 WHILE THE TRUCK IS STATIONARY IT FAILED TO START AND THE ENGINE LIGHT, CAME UP AGAIN. SOMETHING IS WRONG WITH THIS TRUCK! I DON'T FEEL SAFE TO DRIVE IN FEAR THAT MY TRUCK WILL STOP WORKING WHILE IN MOTION AND CAUSE AN ACCIDENT. I CAN GET STRANDED ANYWHERE AT ANYTIME.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 FORD F-150. THE CONTACT STATED THAT BOTH THE REAR DRIVER AND PASSENGER DOORS WOULD NOT UNLOCK AND COULD NOT BE OPENED FROM INSIDE OR OUTSIDE THE VEHICLE. IN ADDITION, THE DOOR FAILED TO OPEN WITH THE REMOTE ACCESS FOB. THE CAUSE OF THE FAILURE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED NOR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 50,400.

WHILE DRIVING MY 2013 FORD PLATINUM F-150 AT APPROXIMATELY 35 MPH GOING STRAIGHT ON A TOWN ROAD HEADING TO THE HIGHWAY, THE WRENCH SERVICE LIGHT CAME AND AND INSTANTLY PUTTING THE TRUCK INTO "LIMP" MODE ONLY ALLOWING ME TO DRIVE 5 MPH. I AM LUCKY NOT TO BE IN HIGHWAY TRAFFIC. I DID HAVE MY FAMILY WITH ME HEADING ON A 5 HOUR JOURNEY. COMPLETELY UNSAFE! AFTER A FEW RESTARTS THE SAME WRENCH LIGHT CAME ON AS WELL AS THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT. AND AGAIN THE VEHICLE WENT INTO LIMP MODE ALLOWING ME TO DRIVE 5MPH. THE GRIECO MA FORD DEALER SAID IT WAS A FAILED THROTTLE BODY, VEHICLE ONLY HAS 55K MILES ON IT AND HAS BEEN SERVICED REGULARLY AT THE AFOREMENTIONED FORD DEALER! I HOPE THIS SAFETY ISSUE GETS RECALLED SO NO ONE WILL EVER HAVE TO GO THROUGH THE SITUATION LIKE I DID EVER AGAIN!

TRUCK STALLED MOMENTARILY WHILE NEGOTIATING AN INTERSECTION. I PULLED INTO A PARKING LOT TO CHECK FOR ISSUES. WHEN I TRIED TO RE-START THE TRUCK IT WOULD TURN OVER BUT WOULDN'T START. I CHECKED THE OWNERS MANUAL FOR THE PROCEDURE TO RE-SET THE FUEL SHUT OFF SWITCH BECAUSE I THOUGHT IT MAY HAVE BEEN ACTIVATED BY SOMETHING. TRUCK STILL WOULD NOT START AFTER FOLLOWING PROCEDURE. I HAD THE TRUCK TOWED TO HUNT FORD IN FRANKLIN KY. A SERVICE TECHNICIAN CALLED ME THE NEXT DAY TO INFORM ME THAT THE FUEL PUMP RELAY HAD MELTED AND THAT FORD HAD ISSUED A TECHNICAL BULLETIN ABOUT THE ISSUE AND A FIX FOR IT WHICH INCLUDED INSTALLING AN INLINE FUSE TO KEEP THE RELAY FROM MELTING AGAIN. THE REPAIR COST $210 AND THE SERVICE TECH TOLD ME THAT MY TRUCK WAS SECOND ONE THAT THEY HAD FIXED WITH THIS SAME ISSUE THAT DAY! WHILE IT WASN'T A SAFETY ISSUE FOR ME, IT DEFINITELY HAS THE POTENTIAL TO BE ONE.

THE TRUCK WILL DOWN SHIFT WHILE DRIVING. IT HAS HAPPENED A FEW TIMES NOW. I WAS DRIVING ABOUT 30MPH AND EXPERIENCED A DROP IN POWER AND THE GAUGES STARTED JUMPING ALL OVER. IT ALSO DROPPED TO 1ST GEAR WHEN I WAS ON THE HIGHWAY DOING 70 MPH. IT FELT LIKE SOMEONE THREW THE E-BREAK. QUICK JERKING MOTION. I HAD TO PULL OVER AND SHUT THE TRUCK OFF. THANKFULLY MY FAMILY WAS NOT IN THE VEHICLE AND NO ONE WAS DIRECTLY BEHIND ME. THE FEW OTHER TIMES IT HAPPENED I NOTICED SOMETHING GOING WRONG SO I QUICKLY PULLED OFF THE ROAD AND SHUT IT DOWN. TURNING IT OFF SEEMED TO "RESET" THINGS AND LET ME GET HOME. I HAD A DIAGNOSTIC RAN AND IT CODED #4 SPARK PLUG AND #4 COIL. I HAD BOTH OF THOSE REPLACED - AND EXPERIENCED THE SAME ISSUE THE VERY NEXT DAY! RAN ANOTHER DIAGNOSTIC AND IT CODED THE SAME WAY! TOOK IT TO A FORD DEALERSHIP TO CHECK IT OUT AND THEIR FINAL ANSWER WAS "NEEDS A NEW ENGINE". IT HAS 110K MILES ON IT AND I BOUGHT IT LESS THAN 1 YEAR AGO AND IT NEEDS A NEW ENGINE? I HAVE $700 WRAPPED UP IN REPLACING PARTS THAT DID NOT NEED REPLACING AND DIAGNOSTICS THAT DID NOT GIVE ME A REALISTIC SOLUTION. THIS DOES NOT SOUND LIKE AN ENGINE ISSUE- SOUNDS VERY SIMILAR TO THE RECENT RECALL ON THE 2011-2012 MODELS. TRUCK IS PARKED IN THE DRIVEWAY. NO ONE IN MY FAMILY WILL BE DRIVING IT. HOPE TO HEAR THAT FORD RECOGNIZES THE BIGGER ISSUE HERE AND STEPS UP TO TAKE CARE OF THIS.

I WAS DRIVING DOWN A VERY DANGEROUS HIGHWAY PASS GOING APPROXIMATELY 65 MPH WHEN MY ENGINE STALLED AS RANDOM ALARMS STARTED APPEARING ON MY DASHBOARD, THEN MY STEERING LOCKED FROM THE ENGINE BEING OFF. I TRIED THE BEST I COULD TO GET ON THE SHOULDER AS I HAD NO STEERING ABILITY AND I STEPPED ON THE BRAKES FAIRLY HARD. I WAS LUCKY BECAUSE THIS WAS THE ONLY PLACE IN MILES WITH A SHOULDER. ANYWHERE ELSE ON THIS ROAD AND I COULD HAVE BEEN SERIOUSLY INJURED OR DIED. WHILE ON THE SIDE OF THE ROAD I SMELLED A TINY BIT OF BURNING PLASTIC WITH NO PROBLEM IN SIGHT. I GOOGLED WHAT HAPPENED ON A SPECIAL FORUM WEBSITE FOR FORD RAPTOR OWNERS AND OTHERS HAD THE SAME THING HAPPEN WITH FUSE 27. WHICH IS FOR THE FUEL PUMP. SO I CHECKED THE NUMBER 27 FUSE AND SURE ENOUGH IT HAD MELTED, I ACTUALLY HAD TO TAKE IT OUT OF THE FUSE BOX IN MELTED PIECES WITH PLIERS. THE FUSE MELTED WHILE DRIVING SO THE FUEL PUMP SHUT OFF CAUSING MY ENGINE TO STALL AND STEERING TO LOCK. MANY MANY OTHERS HAVE HAD HIS HAPPEN AND FORD RECOGNIZES IT AS A SERVICE BULLETIN. HOWEVER THIS NEEDS TO BE MORE THEN A SERVICE BULLETIN WHEN SOMEONE'S LIFE COULD BE TAKEN DRIVING THE FREEWAY OR DANGEROUS ROAD. WE WERE LUCKY THERE WAS NO COLLISION, INJURIES, OR FIRE, HOWEVER IT COULD HAVE VERY WELL CAUSED AN ELECTRICAL FIRE AND IF SOMEONE WAS ON A CROWDED FREEWAY IN RUSH HOUR A COLLISION IS ALMOST CERTAIN.

WALKING OUT TO TRUCK WHEN A LOUD BANG/GUNSHOT TYPE OF SOUND HAPPENED WITHOUT WARNING. WALKED AROUND TRUCK AND SAW THAT DRIVER'S SIDE OF THE POWER SLIDING REAR WINDOW (3 SECTIONS) HAD STARTED TO SPIDER CRACK. THIS PART OF THE WINDOW THEN CONTINUED TO CRACK UNTIL THE WHOLE SECTION WAS SPIDER CRACKED. (THE SHARP EDGES OF GLASS WERE ON THE INSIDE OF VEHICLE WINDOW.)

AFTER RESEARCHING, LOOKS TO BE A KNOWN ISSUE THAT FORD SEEMS TO NOT WANT TO ACKNOWLEDGE. I CALLED THEM TODAY AND THE CUSTOMER SERVICE REP ACTED LIKE HE DID NOT KNOW OF ANY PAST ISSUES. HOPEFULLY THIS WILL GET THE ATTENTION IT NEEDS SOON.

I'M REQUESTING THE NHTSA INVESTIGATE F150 ACCELERATOR PEDALS THAT ARE PLACED TOO CLOSELY TO THE CABIN FLOOR VENT. THE CABIN FLOOR VENT ON THE DRIVER SIDE IS PERPENDICULAR AND TO THE RIGHT OF THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL AT A DISTANCE OF 3.5 INCHES. MY FOOT IS WIDER THAN THE PEDAL, SO WHEN MY FOOT IS RESTING ON THE ACCELERATOR IT IS ONLY 1-2 INCHES FROM THE VENT. SINCE MY FOOT IS DIRECTLY IN FRONT OF THE VENT, IT BLOCKS ALL AIRFLOW. SETTING THE FLOOR VENTS ON HEAT MEANS THAT HOT AIR BLOWS DIRECTLY ON THE OUTSIDE EDGE OF MY RIGHT FOOT. WITHIN 1-2 MINUTES OF ACTIVATION, MY FOOT BECOMES UNCOMFORTABLY WARM FROM THE BARRAGE OF HOT AIR. THE RESULT IS A PAINFUL, BURNING SENSATION AND EXTREME PHYSICAL DISCOMFORT IN MY FOOT. USING AN INFRARED THERMOMETER, I GATHERED TEMPERATURE READINGS OF THE AIR EXITING THE VENTS. THE AC WAS SET TO MAXIMUM HEAT. ALL READINGS WERE TAKEN WHILE THE TRUCK WAS IDLE. OUTSIDE TEMPERATURES WERE 30 F. THE THERMOMETER MEASURED TEMPERATURES IN EXCESS OF 140 F FROM ALL VENTS. THE READING OF THE VENT NEXT TO THE ACCELERATOR WAS 141.5F. I PLACED AN EMPTY SHOE ON THE ACCELERATOR AND LEFT IT THERE FOR 3 MINUTES. READINGS OF THE SHOE WHILE ON THE ACCELERATOR WERE IN EXCESS OF 120F. I REMOVED THE SHOE FROM ACCELERATOR AND TOOK READINGS AFTER IT COOLED FOR 3 SECONDS. THE SHOE'S TEMPERATURE WAS 115F. THE SHOE REMAINED WARM TO THE TOUCH FOR SEVERAL MINUTES. LEAVING THE VENTS AT THE SAME SETTINGS, I TOOK MEASUREMENTS OF THE BARE SKIN OF MY HANDS AND ARMS. TEMPERATURE READINGS WERE BETWEEN 89-91F. SKIN CAN BE BURNED IN A RELATIVELY SHORT PERIOD OF TIME WHEN EXPOSED TO TEMPERATURES IN EXCESS OF 120F. MY OWN DISCOMFORT CONFIRMS THIS. I CONTACTED 3 FORD DEALERS REGARDING THIS PROBLEM AND EXPLAINED MY FINDINGS. TWO DEALERS SAID THAT THE PEDALS IN MY MODEL FORD WERE NONADJUSTABLE, SO THE ISSUE WAS NOT ACTIONABLE. I ALSO CONTACTED FORD DIRECTLY. SO FAR NO SOLUTION.

REAR WINDOW DEFROSTER WORKS INTERMITTENTLY. AFTER DOING RESEARCH AND READING MANY FORUMS I LEARNED THERE IS A CONTACT IN REAR WINDOW THAT HAS SHORTED OUT AND CAUSED MANY REAR WINDOW SECTIONS TO POP AND SHATTER THE GLASS.

THE OUTDOOR TEMPERATURE WAS 24F, THE HEAT SETTING WAS 67F. VEHICLE WAS BACKED INTO DRIVEWAY WITH GARAGE BEHIND. NOTHING COULD HAVE HIT THE WINDOW FROM THE OUTSIDE AND THE VEHICLE HADN'T MOVED, YET THE GLASS PRACTICALLY EXPLODED. THERE ARE DOZENS OF VERY SIMILAR EXPERIENCES SHARED ON SEVERAL INTERNET FORUMS INVOLVING YEARS 2010 FORWARD OF THE SAME MODEL TRUCK -- SAME GENERATION. FORD HAS NOT CREATED A TSB AND THERE ISN'T A RECALL, AND FORD HAS MADE NO INDICATION THAT THEY WILL DO ANYTHING ABOUT IT. THEY REFERRED ME BACK TO A DEALER TO DOCUMENT THE DAMAGE. LOCAL FORD DEALER TOLD ME AFTERWARD THAT THE REAR WINDOW DEFROST TURNS ON AUTOMATICALLY WITH THE REMOTE START FEATURE. NOW DRIVER VISIBILITY IS OBSCURED AND I'M CONCERNED ABOUT THE SAFETY OF THE ELECTRICAL HEATING ELEMENT. REPORTEDLY FIRES HAVE OCCURRED WITH THIS SITUATION. I WON'T BE USING THE REAR DEFROST UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES -- EVEN IN NORTHERN ILLINOIS, IN THE WINTER. IT SEEMS MOST OWNERS HAVE BEEN DENIED WARRANTY CLAIMS BECAUSE FORD STATED THE DAMAGE WAS TO GLASS, WHICH ISN'T COVERED UNDER THE WARRANTY. THE GLASS ISN'T THE PROBLEM, ITS THE EVIDENCE. FORD SAID IT IS UP TO THE DEALER TO DETERMINE IF THE DAMAGE IS DUE TO A MANUFACTURER'S DEFECT TO GET REPLACEMENT UNDER WARRANTY. THE DEALER SERVICE MANAGER TOLD ME THEY SUBMIT A WARRANTY CLAIM WITH PHOTOS TO FORD WHICH WILL EITHER APPROVE OR DENY THE CLAIM.

AS I TRIED TO ACCELERATE TO PASS A VEHICLE THE MOTOR IN MY TRUCK STARTED TO MISS, THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT FLASHED ON AND OFF AND I WAS NOT ABLE TO ACCELERATE. THE MOTOR PROCEEDED TO IDLE EVEN THOUGH I WAS PUSHING IN THE GAS PEDAL. AFTER ABOUT 15 SECONDS OF NO RESPONSE TO THE GAS PEDAL BEING PUSHED THE ENTIRE TRUCK STARTED SHAKING AS THOUGH IT WAS ABOUT TO FALL APART. ANOTHER 30 SECONDS LATER AND EVERYTHING WENT BACK TO NORMAL. THIS OCCURRED IN A 2013 F-150 WITH THE ECOBOOST MOTOR. *JS

THE DIRECTIONAL CONTROL LEVER ON THIS VEHICLE REQUIRES THE DRIVER TO ENGAGE THE LEVER MULTIPLE TIMES TO INDICATE A CHANGE FROM A RIGHT TURN TO A LEFT TURN AND VICE VERSA. FOR EXAMPLE, MAKING A LEFT TURN FROM ONE ROADWAY ONTO ANOTHER ROADWAY, AND THEN NEEDING TO MAKE A QUICK RIGHT TURN OFF OF THE 2ND ROADWAY REQUIRES THE DRIVER TO FIRST DISENGAGE THE LEFT DIRECTIONAL, AND THEN IN A 2ND MOTION, ENGAGE THE RIGHT DIRECTIONAL. IT IS NOT POSSIBLE TO MERELY MOVE THE DIRECTIONAL LEVER UP (TO INDICATE A RIGHT TURN) AFTER TURNING LEFT IN ONE FLUID MOTION. IT REQUIRES A) HOLDING THE LEVER DOWN TO INDICATE A LEFT TURN B) IN THE MIDDLE OF THAT TURN, HITTING THE LEVER RIGHT TWO TIMES TO INDICATE A RIGHT TURN. THIS IS CONTRARY TO HOW TYPICAL DIRECTIONAL LEVERS WORK. OFTEN IT IS NOT POSSIBLE TO SIGNAL YOUR INTENTIONS TO OTHER DRIVERS IN A TIMELY FASHION - OR, THE DRIVER MAY HOLD THE LEVER UP, THINKING HE HAS ENGAGED THE RIGHT DIRECTIONAL, BUT HAS MERELY DISENGAGED THE LEFT. *TR

AS OF JANUARY 28, 2013 MY 2013 F-150 HAS CONTINUALLY HAD ELECTRICAL ISSUES RESULTING IN A DEAD BATTERY THAT HAS NOT BEEN CORRECTED AS OF TODAY, 3/10/2014. ERROR MESSAGES THAT ARISE INCLUDE " BATTERY SAVER ON' AND "AUDIO OFF" INDICATORS AND AFTER JUMPSTARTING THE VEHICLE WILL START WITH THE KEY IN THE "ON" POSITION AND IN SOME CASES SUCH AS MINE, THE VEHICLE WILL NOT SHIFT OUT OF 5TH GEAR UNTIL THE IGNITION IS CYCLED OFF AND THEN ON AGAIN. OVER THE COURSE OF THE PREVIOUS 2.5 MONTHS I HAVE HAD MY VEHICLE IN THE DEALERSHIP SERVICE DEPARTMENT 6 TIMES TOTALING OVER 30+ DAYS. THIS VEHICLE HAS LEFT ME STRANDED ON MULTIPLE OCCASIONS REQUIRING ME TO FIND SOMEONE TO JUMPSTART IT EACH TIME. THERE ARE AN INCREASING NUMBER OF COMPLAINTS ON THIS YEAR MODEL FOR THE EXACT SAME ISSUE WITH NO RESOLUTION FROM FORD. I HAVE UTILIZED EVERY POSSIBLE AVENUE TO GET THIS ISSUE RESOLVED AND AM HOPING THAT BY FILING THIS COMPLAINT I CAN BRING GREATER ATTENTION TO AN ISSUE THAT IS AFFECTING A GROWING PORTION OF F-150 OWNERS. *TR

WHEN OUT TO TRUCK IN THE MORNING TO CLEAN SNOW OFF. I RETRIEVED A PAIR OF GLOVES OUT OF THE BACKSEAT AND NOTHING WAS OUT OF THE ORDINARY. IT WAS APPROXIMATELY 7 DEGREES F OUTSIDE. I THEN WENT INSIDE AND REMOTE STARTED THE TRUCK. AFTER A FEW MINUTES I WENT TO GET IN THE TRUCK, LOOKED IN THE REAR VIEW AND NOTICED THE MIDDLE, SLIDING REAR WINDOW WAS OPEN. I TURNED AROUND AND FOUND THAT THE CENTER GLASS WAS BROKEN AND HAD SHATTERED INTO THE TRUCK. THE TWO SIDE PANELS WERE BOTH COMPLETELY SHATTERED AND STILL INTACT. I TOOK THE TRUCK TO THE DEALER AND ASKED THE PARTS AND SERVICE DEPARTMENT IF THIS WAS SOMETHING THEY HAD HEARD OF. I TOLD THEM I FELT LIKE THE REAR DEFROSTER COMBINED WITH THE COLD EXPLODED THE WINDOW. THEY SAID THEY HAD NEVER HEARD OF THAT. THE VEHICLE IS CURRENTLY AT THE DEALERSHIP BEING REPAIRED AT A COST OF $1,420. I HAVE FILED A COMPLAINT WITH FORD AND AM AWAITING A CALL BACK AS THEY OPENED A CASE NUMBER FOR ME. AS THIS STANDS NOW IT LOOKS LIKE IT WILL COME OUT OF POCKET AND WILL BE FILED AGAINST INSURANCE. *TR

I TRIED THE ( 2 ) RECOMMENDATION IN THE INSTRUCTION BOOK AND WHEN TURNED THE IGNITION TO START IT ONLY TRIED FOR LESS THAN 3 SECONDS, THEN THE POWER TO THE IGNITION WENT BLANK.

I HAD ALREADY CALLED FORD FRIDAY JUNE 21,2013 FOR AN APPOINTMENT FOR # 3 & 4 WITH THE ENGINE CUTTING OFF. I THEN CALLED SATURDAY MORNING AND ASKING THEN FOR A BETTER APPOINTMENT, THEY GAVE ME ONE FOR MONDAY 6-23,2013 INSTEAD OF TUESDAY 6-24-2013.I BADLY NEED TRANSPORTATION THIS NEXT WEEK, I'M GOING TO ASK FORD FOR AMBULANCE SERVICE THIS NEXT COMING FRIDAY JUNE 28,2013, I AM A DISABLED SENIOR VETERAN AND HAVING HIP INJECTIONS NEXT FRIDAY OUT OF TOWN AT THE VETERANS HOSPITAL AND NEED A CARE GIVER,SINCE I WON'T BE ABLE TO DRIVE AFTER THE PROCEDURE.FORD THIS IS BEGINNING TO BE A VERY SERIOUS CONDITION WHEN DRIVING AND PROBABLY CAUSE ACCIDENTS VERY SOON.
