general problems of the 2006 Ford F-150

The contact owns a 2006 Ford f150. The contact stated that the vehicle would not start. The dealer advised the contact that the fuel module was fractured, deteriorated and needed to be replaced. The manufacturer had not been notified of the failure. No repairs were performed. The current and the failure mileages were 58,000.

I had an injector stick open on my 2006 f150 and it caused the engine to hydrolock and seized up the engine. My complaint is that the 2005 f150 had an extension on the warranty due to this problem. I heard that some of the early 2006's (which were made it 2005) has also had theses problems but Ford did not extend the warranty on the 2006.

Spark plugs fail and engine stops. Plugs can't be replaced;long shaft seizes to head walls. Scheduled maintenance item for 100,000 miles. Dangerous design of plugs for all Ford F-150 5. 4 v-8 ; as loss of steering,brakes with engine failure.

My 2006 f150 will stall while driving. I would shut the truck off and it would start back up and not give me a problem for another day or so. It only stalls while I am driving and it doesn't matter what speed I am driving.

Filed previous complaint about my truck. It now blows black smoke when it cranks. It is a good indication that it receiving a rich mixture of gas. This needs to be researched. I know it ties in with the mass air flow sensor, but Ford indicates everything is normal although I am seeing black smoke now when I crank up my truck.

Fuel economy is not in accordance with standards on the 4. 6l f150. I have checked and checked it time and time again. I am supposed to actually get better gas mileage on the highway. Around town and on the highway, since the purchase of my truck in 2006 it has been getting 13 mpg. I just recently placed a k&n filter on it in order to help with the mileage. I am now getting 15mpg highway and around town. Before the change, the trucks idle was rough and dropped below 1,000 rpms. After the change, it's still the same. I took it to a two different Ford departments and spoke with them about the concern that I had and both told me it was the way I drove the truck. Wrong. When there is black soot on the exhaust pipe and it's not clean, that's an indication of a maf sensor or one of the oxygen sensors have gone bad. I have nearly 25,000 miles on my truck and am fixing to replace the maf sensor due to the fact that a maf sensor will not show up as being damaged and no computer codes are relayed through this. The oxygen sensors would show computer codes. I do have it on file at wayne morris Ford in perry, GA where they had checked the truck and stated nothing was wrong, I was just getting bad gas. This was before I changed out the air filter. It is aggravating in knowing that one, I am driving a truck that now gets 15 mpg city/highway where before it was 13 mpg when I should be getting 17/20 mpg. *also, here is a keynote. The 2006 cruise control assembly was messed up on the truck when I first purchased it and they replaced it with a 2007 cruise control assembly and placed a newer 2007 computer in it due to the fact 2006 was not picking up on the cruise control.

2006 f150 fx 4 -4x4 super cab 5. 4 l. I traded the exact same truck in an 04 model year for this 2006. Ford has refused to fix ( for 3 model years ) : drive train vibration, drive train howl/whine. The 04 was in the shop 6 times with no fix. My 06 in the dealership now. I haven't made the first payment or the first oil change. Problems not present on test drive. Started at 500 miles. Other problems include : brake pedal is mush. It never firms up. It will go to the floor. Doors wont shut without slamming. Super cab doors wont shut tight without pushing top in. My best fuel economy is 13 mpg highway with the cruise on. The "new" f150's are a disgrace to the Ford name. $ 38,000 p. O. S. !! my last Ford.
