2022 FORD F-150 Engine Problems

There is a recall for the low pressure fuel pump that has been active since July of 2025 and there is still not resolution. This truck is not usable due to the issue.

Vehicle will inadvertantly accelerate or set cruise control to high speeds when on residential and low speed roads. Several times when either coming to a stop or accelerating from a stop vehicle has entered cruise control at 55-57 mph. Had to brake to stop vehicle acceleration.

A few weeks ago, while driving the vehicle, it displayed an engine misfire warning had extreme vibrations, and then the vehicle broke down, left me sitting on the side of the road. After getting the vehicle towed to a Ford dealership, we found the intake valve broke off on the motor and causes catastrophic complete engine failure. This is an active recall in 21 and 2022 F1 50s with the 2.7 eco-boost. Per Ford my Vin is not attached to that recall and they said I had to call or get a hold of the national highway safety administration and get my Vin attached that recall for engine replacement. My vehicle is a 2022 with 100,000 miles on it and now it’s broke down because the engine had catastrophic engine failure due to a problem. Ford knows about this issue and won’t fix it until I get the vehicles then attached to the recall . The current recall number is 24S55 Thank you

the vehicle fails to accelerate when coming of a turn, the accelerator pedal does not respond for several seconds, then the vehicle lunges forward. Ford was contacted and no fix for this problem. I think this is very dangerous.

I have a 2022 f150 2.7l with 46000 miles. I have had issues with the truck ever since I bought it. The safety issue is a few things. One when I put it in reverse my truck shudders and acts like I pressed on the break really fast several times. I also havr an issue with a cold start when I start it up the truck it acts like it wants to die or looses rpms. I here a paddling coming from the intake valves possibly. Im not sure what part is broke but it makes a rattling sound. Iv brought it to the dealership that I bought the truck from and they say we domt notice anything and its been a struggle to get them to actually thoroughly look into it. Im concerned it will lead to an engine failure because it also loses power and wants to die at times. Iv taken excellent care of the truck and always change oil and any parts on time. It also when I put it in drive makes a loud clunk sound and has a very hard time shifting gears between 3 and 4. Very rough shifting and very concerning.

While proceeding through a four-way stop, my vehicle unexpectedly lost driveline engagement. The engine began free-spinning while still in "Drive," and the truck stopped accelerating, leaving me stranded in the middle of the intersection. I had to shift repeatedly between Park and Drive before the vehicle would respond and move again. This is not an isolated incident. The same failure occurred previously in early 2024. The vehicle has also exhibited persistent transmission issues, including gear hunting and harsh downshifts, particularly a hard clunk during the 4–3 shift on deceleration. The dealer has dismissed these symptoms in the past, stating it was due to the transmission being "cold." However, the intermittent loss of driveline engagement presents a serious safety risk to myself and others, especially when it occurs in active traffic situations. This is the second time the vehicle has left me stranded without warning. I’m extremely concerned that Ford has not addressed this recurring safety issue. The condition is unpredictable and dangerous. Immediate investigation and corrective action are needed.

Vehicle stalls out every 3-5 minutes after starting. Vehicle stops and will restart after start up but will only once again run for 3-5 minutes. Vehicle is a hazard on the road as well to the passengers. Local Ford Dealership and Ford Corp. both admit there is a recall (25S75) on my 2022 F-150 but are unaware of how to repair the vehicle. I am to wait until Ford develops a solution. Unwilling to provide a loaner vehicle while Ford comes up with a solution. They told me 3-6 months.

The front of the truck started smoking when it was pulled over at a gas station on 07/26/2024, the hood was too hot to open, and the front of the truck proceeded to start on fire. It took the fire department 20 minutes to arrive on the scene at which point there was not much left of the front of the truck. Everyone was able to get out of the vehicle and no injuries occurred. The truck is obviously totaled, but we are unaware as what caused this truck to blow up.

My engine failed do to faulty valves at 42000 miles. A check engine light came on and I took it to nearest ford dealership for repairs. It was originally missed diagnosed with faulty ignition coil on number 5 cylinder back in November 2023. Since then it has been determined to have issue mentioned above. They say they will need to replace entire engine. Not happy with this but what can an owner do. I have seen this has been common in other similar vehicles. Has ford found and fixed the problem or will this again happen with the new engine they put in?

Truck check engine light came on and started to blink. The truck would shake when trying to accelerate. Pulled over, turned truck off and the light went off. When started back up it was gone. A few days later the truck did the same thing, but the light did not go off. It remained on, when accelerating the truck began to shake. When I took to the dealer, they mentioned they this truck had a check engine light on when they received, they replaced the ignition coils (under warranty) before purchasing. It’s believed the coils may have gone again. The truck is currently at the dealers getting repaired. For a brand new truck, the coils have already needed to be replaced by dealer.
