This Problem Across All Years
My vehicle instrument cluster is glitching and blacking out occasionally. I saw NHTSA recall campaign number: 25V-540 which is for 2025 vehicles but mine is a 2024. Maybe this recall should be expanded to 2024 models as well. It has been happening since I had the vehicle and has been reported to the shop twice. The last time I went they offered to reload the software but I need to get that done when I am free.

The trucks electronic system is all messed up. The temperature for Fahrenheit shows at time to be 142,165 which we know is not correct. Then while driving the dash displays a message that truck is going to shut off and it does while we are are still driving. Dash will display that we have a trailer hitched on when we do not. Many different alerts show up on the dash while in drive mode. We bought the truck brand new and it barely even has 18,000 miles on it.

On numerous times when you start the truck there is a delay from when you engage drive and the drivetrain gets power. To the point that 1 time the truck rolled back into another destroying their bumper.

Automatic Emergency Braking engaged while the vehicle was in neutral tow. Resulted in 2 rear blown tires and damaged rims on vehicle.Attached the F250 correctly to the motorhome and confirmed truck was in neutral tow. Starting pulling the F250 and confirmed by looking at mirrors on the motorhome and rear camera that the wheels on the F250 were rolling both front axel and rear axel. After several blocks felt a hard tug while driving the motorhome, looked in the side mirror and rear camera and noticed smoke coming from rear tires. We pulled over on highway and stopped towing the vehicle. Went back to truck open the driver door and the dash was reading vehicle was still in neutral tow. Called a tow truck. The F250 truck was towed to the Moss Ford dealership. Ford dealership never neutral towed the F250 so they were unable to recreate the situation. However we had computer data on the F250 dating back to before the truck was delivered after manufacturing relating to brake issues. The Emergency brakes engages when we are driving it and comes on after stopping on a hill or after we tow a trailer. We have had this F250 into the dealership for brake warranty issues before we started to neutral tow the F250. We had neutral tow this truck over 1500 miles before this incident. We continued on our trip and currently in Chula Vista CA. Neutral tow the F250 all the way. However the Ford instructions on how to set up neutral tow does not tell you disable automated emergency braking system or disable the front collision warning system.

The electrical system/dash of the 2024 Ford-F250 is not working properly. When in drive mode the dash will state that vehicle will be shutting off and will shut off. When attempting to power up or down the windows, window may stop half way down or up or will not go up or down. Stereo will shut off or turn on and at times sound will shift to one speaker, truck has to be turned off and turned back on for all speakers to work or for stereo to go to it's normal functuality. This was brought to the attention of one of the Manager's Ford Dealership repair center and he said that he has been seeing many issues with the electrical components of all Ford trucks. Most of the trucks have to have the whole cab removed/lifted to be able to get to the electrical component that is causing the issue on the vehicle. This a new truck and it's ridiculous that we are having to go through this, the dealership wants to charge hundreds to check the truck and there should be no charge when this is a known issue.

vehicle’s APIM MALFUNCTIONED and caused the rear-traffic alert to malfunction as well as a number of the vehicle’s other features such as its navigation, radio, HVAC, cruise control ETC. took it to the dealership and they tried to robot system, Dealership stated reboot failed and the would load it on a thumb drive and I can try to upload it from there. I stated I wanted the APIM replaced, and they said let's try thi route first.
