2023 FORD F-250 SD Electrical System Problems

Speedometer not working correctly analog and digital do no match. Trailer brake and lighting module failure warnings displayed. Both have been looked at by Ford Dealership, twice. You don’t know what is true, you can’t rely on any warning lights as all have proven wrong. I am in the process of 3rd trip in tomorrow to leave the vehicle a few days since it has to be parked on the Ford lot and stored there in order to try to get another speedometer to install to see if it fixes the one problem.

The contact owns a 2023 Ford F-250 SD. The contact had experienced several electrical failures with the vehicle and the vehicle had been back to the dealer for repairs for more than 70 days. The contact stated that the instrument cluster failed to properly illuminate, and it was difficult to see the information on the instrument cluster. The contact also stated that the front passenger’s side window failed to roll up in one motion. The contact stated that the window would stop halfway up and had to be rolled back down first and then another attempt had to be made to roll the window up for the window to operate as needed. Additionally, the back over prevention and trailer park assists system functions failed to operate as needed. The contact also stated that the back over prevention software failure of the TPASIN module caused the screen to intermittently display a distorted image, a blue screen, or displayed a solid black screen. The contact also stated that the powertrain axle assembly shaft was improperly heat treated during the manufacturing process. Additionally, the vehicle experienced failures with steering column, and the tailgate release function occasionally failed to operate as needed. The vehicle was taken to the local dealer on several occasions and remained with dealer often, for two to three weeks each time. The contact stated that the dealer attempted to assess a diagnostic fee even though the failure was a known failure with the vehicle. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the failure on several occasions however, the contact stated that the manufacturer failed to acknowledge the failures or take the vehicle back from when the vehicle was first purchased new. The approximate failure mileage was 500.

Mileage: 500

there hasn't been an incident per say and these might not be a safety concern. however i would like to list my grievances here just so there's documentation. my radio has some type of glitch where the phone calls get static like its digital, also the mirrors don't fold in all the time when locked with the key fob, the brakes have squeaked since day 1 and the grab handle in the tailgate just slides right out when the steps are pulled out. again i don't think this really qualifies for dangerous

Air conditioning and heating output on drivers side and passenger side vents swings wildly independent of settings and requires continual manual adjustment or complete airflow/system shutoff. The interior of the cab either bakes or freezes on either side and requires constant operator input to manage. Very unsafe as the driver must continually monitor and adjust looking at the display screen and not the road. Essentially, the same thing as texting continually while navigating all driving situations. Am aware of other 2023 SD Tremor models with the same issue 250-450. No warning lamps no codes present and has been a constant issue since purchased new 6 months ago.

Went to start truck and had a loud pop like a shotgun went off in the cab when the push to start was turned on. After that I had no sound from the stereo. First thing I noticed was no rear park aid beep when backing up and then noticed all sound was gone. Parked truck not knowing what was wrong and grabbed other truck as I was pulling away the alarm started going off and stereo was blasting static noise on full. Had to disconnect batteries to stop alarm and to get radio to turn off. So to clarify all was shut off and truck was locked and about 1 minute later alarm went off with sound blasting could not turn truck on or off nothing worked. Thank god i didn’t drive it to work would have caused a wreck.

VIN tool confirms parts not available.

I have a 2023 F-250 Lariat with the B&O sound system (Unleashed) with 3100 mile now. On 11/28/23 after entering the truck and hitting the start button I heard what sounded like an explosion going off inside the truck followed by non-stop noise coming through the speakers of the truck. Turning the truck off and opening the doors did nothing. Turning radio off did nothing. I proceeded to leave work and head straight to my local dealership which took approximately 15 minutes to get too and the noise in the speakers had not stopped. I left the truck running and went in to speak to someone in the service department. He came out and got in the truck and was shocked at what he was seeing/hearing. He stated that he had never heard of this before. He tried everything I did to get the noise to stop but it would not. At some point he went into the sound settings and changed it from Surround mode to Stereo mode and it stopped and the radio came on and played like normal. Told me it was possible that I had received an update and something may had gotten stuck in programming and caused a glitch. He said that hopefully it wont happen again but if it does to come see him for a further investigation into the matter. I told him that I couldnt believe that the speakers were still working after that happening. I have a dash cam in my truck that has all of this recorded except the initial explosion because of a momentary lapse of time when the truck is started. It has been a week now since this happened and my ears still have a constant ringing that hasnt gone away. Very irritating to say the least but I am glad that this didnt happen when all of my family was in the vehicle. I however am worried of it happening again in the future.

Recently purchased my vehicle brand new, and I noticed that the speakers cut in and out and have static. I brought my vehicle to Ford and they are replacing both roof speakers. The vehicle I have has a BO 18 speakers set up from the factory. I have a video of the issue of the music cutting in and out and every now and then the roof speakers and sides speakers let out a high-pitched noise. I noticed the issue happens whenever I listen to music and touch the infotainment system for example, if I’m listening to music and I go From GPS to Music and I tap the screen the music cuts out and that’s a high pitch noise . The static is so loud. Sometimes I have to shut the car off and pull over and shut the car off and wait for the system to shut down the issue has not been resolved, and I would like to process it as a lemon via lemon law

No warning that this vehicle is designed to cut itself off after 30 minutes of idle time. This is NOT STANDARD and no owner would ever know or expect this. Ford should have at minimal a warning placard like it does for airbags. We purposely got a 250 truck to use the idle with AC as we setup and cool down our RV. Thankfully we found out about this to avoid serious injury, living in TX climate where temps outside reach 100+ degrees. Someone is going to get seriously hurt or killed since this is NOT expected or a STANDARD feature of ANY vehicle. There needs to be at least a warning but ideally, a permanent override for the owner, or default to normal idle.

Several issues. At 1100 miles the sound system or the 12” touch screen locks up sometimes so that touch screen doesn’t work, stereo turns off, a sudden loud tone comes on from all the speakers at full volume and the volume control, screen nothing works to turn it down and you have to turn the truck off completely and wait 5-10 minutes before turning it back on and then everything works. Today, I started the truck and discovered that the heated steering wheel and heated seats were on high (When I have never even used them before) so I turned them off. I went into a store and came out 5 minutes later, restarted the truck and the heated wheel/seats had come on again by themselves. The truck will also make a warning tone occasionally while driving but nothing even shows on the screen. Its like I have electrical gremlins jumping from system to system.

The instrument panel cluster has failed. You can not see how fast you are going, none of the dash is lit up. You are unable to determine if there are any issues going on with the vehicle. The adaptive cruise control and emergency braking system is not working properly. The battery will also not hold a charge. Our safety is at risk as we don't know what is going on with the fuctions of the truck or if it will start. Yes, ford has confirm this problem and issued a recall. The dealership has inspected the vehicle. There were no warnings of the problem before it occurred. The instrument panel and other functions of the vehicle just stopped working. We are in contact regularly with the dealership and Ford. Initially they placed us in a long term rental since the current Truck is not driveable however, they are wanting to terminate that rental and not provided us with the needed vehicle. Currently, there is not a part to fix this issue. This was a vehicle that was purchased brand new and within 6 weeks we experienced this electronic failure. We need Ford to step up and provide a Ford F250 as we purchased until this is fixed.

Instrument pan is completely out and ford has no fix for it.
