Door striker plate, latching hook on rocker plate, lower side of driver side door frame, between front and rear doors is rusted. This does not allow the doors, front or rear driver side, to close securely. Attempted to contact Ford dealerships with no response. Took to independent body shop who said it is definitely a safety issue.
I own a 2009 Ford f150 XLT 4 door. Since engaging the child safety feature to the lock position, I have not been able to open either door from the inside or the outside. I have since switched back the unlock position and both rear doors will not open. Passengers can not exit the vehicle in an emergency situation and is a safety hazard.
Tl- the contact owns a 2009 Ford F-150. The contact stated while driving 55 mph, the check engine indicator illuminated and the vehicle stalled. The contact was not able to restart the vehicle for about 30 minutes. The contact stated referenced TSB 15-0137(some 2009-2014 F-150 vehicles may exhibit a crank no=start, stalling) and said his vehicle had the same symptoms. The dealer (mossy Ford � 858-273-7500) was contacted and stated their was no recalls on the vehicle so they could do nothing. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired.

Takata recall the brake lights in my dashboard is always lit up also the stablity lite is always on . I took it to the mechanic to have it check and was told is was a defect with the computer system and should bring it to the dealer or see if there any recalls for this problem . This occurs as soon as I turn on the engine both lights in motion ,stationary, highway etc .
The throttle stuck on the truck and caused me to have an accident.
In 2017 we had the transmission rebuilt do to loss off power on 12/23/17 while driving there was a loss of power then thunk wheels would barely more. City street making a right hand turn so now it's sit in the garage not moving to get it fix almost 1500. 00 that I don't have.
Takata recall. . . . . . I have a 2009 F-150 and all 3 of the 4 door handles open sometimes when you try open the door the 1st time 1 of the door handles you can only open the door from the outside the driver door has a burn mark around the lach of the door that was never there. . . . . . . I called to see if there was a recall on that year of my truck and I was told no. . . . . How can that be? do I have to wait until something happens that my family can't get out?.
First the right rear door shows that the door is ajar so the interior lights stays on while driving for about ten miles before they go out and when you stop the vehicle and get out the lights stay on for about 20 minutes so it runs the battery down. Second thing is the drivers door handle don't return to the closed position it stays half way out and a piece of plastic fell out of door handle I contacted the Ford company about these problems and I was told that they were nothing they could do about the problems. I myself think that these problems are a safety problem and very aggravating.
Keep getting fault code "check fuel fill inlet" this is cap less fuel tank system. I checked cap less fuel fill inlet seems ok but continue getting fault codes. Hundreds Ford customers complaining about same issue, this affects all Ford vehicles using cap less design. From what I read on the web currently there is no fix for this problem. I called Ford motor CO. Warranty group and open a case regarding this issue. My truck currently at the dealership to diagnosis the fault code. I was a design engineer at john deere for 13 years, a problem fuel storage could be dangerous and fatal. Fuel system design problem l should be identified and resolved immediately during development & testing for this truck. I hope NHTSA address this issue seriously and get this issue recall list. Thank you. Ken seim 4/14/2016.
I was driving and my driver side door popped open then would not close took to a Ford dealership and explained to service department what happen he looked at stayed it was the latch broken I see there was a recall on this year of door handles so I brought that up to service man he said it had nothing to do with recall were it explained in recall door handle or any housing in the door handle fails it will be replaced free of charge they did not honor this I paid 450. 00 to replace the whole handle I feel this is a safety probablem and what if it was the kids back door instead of driver side door that popped open then my kid would have fell out the door I want Ford to take care and make sure all other doors are good and reinverse me for the bill I already paid that Ford dealership charged me 450. 00 this is a safety issue that needs to be addressed even if the spring was replaced maybe it was or wasn't or not done correctly.
We are the owners of a 2009 Ford F-150. A couple of years ago we received a letter in the mail stating there was a recall on the door and that we needed to take it in for repairs. We followed procedure and took our truck in to the dealership & the recall issue was fixed (or so we thought) and we never gave it a second thought. Well, fast forward to a little over 1 month ago ( approximately 3 years after the 'recall' issue was fixed ), our truck was rear ended by another vehicle. Not a major accident, but a fender bender. When the other vehicle hit our truck, the side passenger door opened/ unlatched. The original recall stated it would/ could unlatch during a side impact, but the recall should have fixed that. In our minds that problem was fixed & we had peace of mind. Well our truck did not receive a side impact, but a rear end impact, and the door issue apparently was not fixed at all. The passenger door opened/ unlatched and mind you, this was a fairly minor accident. Only property damage, no bodily injuries. I am now scared for our safety as I don't feel my family is safe in our truck should another accident occur, especially a bigger impact accident, & having the door unlatch like that instead of properly protecting those inside. I'd love to know what can be done to fix this issue? my family's safety is at stake here.
After attempting to dis-engage the child safety door lock feature that prevents the door from being opened from the inside, both the inside and outside door latches became completely inoperative preventing the door from being opened at all. I noted a similar complaint filed on the NHTSA site (complaint #10489372. ) when I contacted the Ford dealership for repair I was told that the new vehicle warranty had expired two months prior (March, 2013) and was therefore forced to pay nearly $400 for a new door latch. I would highly recommend an investigation into this issue as an inoperative door latch poses a very high risk of injury or death if occupants are unable to exit the vehicle.
When engaged, the child safety lock on the Ford f150 2009 causes the door to not have the capability of being opened from the outside. The purpose of the child safety lock is to prevent the door from being opened (by children) from the inside only. The inability of the door being able to be opened from the outside presents a grave risk of danger if this vehicle is engaged in an emergency situation which would prevent emergency personnel or any other personnel from being able to properly open the door potentially causing serious injury or death. In this particular case, my Ford f150 2009 pickup truck is a four door crew cab model. When I engaged the child safety lock on the rear passenger side door for the very first time during ownership (12/16/2012), the door handle immediately would not work from both the inside (as expected) as well as the outside. I currently have three children under the age of four which are situated in car seats (as required by law) in the crew cab section of my truck. In the event of an emergency, great concern exists for the safety of my children as well as the children of fellow, unknowledgeable or unsuspecting Ford f150 truck owners that this safety defect exists. Thank you very much for your investigation into this safety issue.
This started about spring of 2011. My truck had about 26,000 miles on it. I was driving in the rain when I heard a trickle of water in the back seat. I looked back and saw nothing. Later when I got to work I checked to see if I could find out what the trickle noise was. It turned out that the roof was leaking. In the back two corners of the cab water was coming in. Apparently, a hard rain causes the water to pool on the roof. The rubber gasket on the roof has apparently become brittle and is letting water in. I looked online for similar complaints and saw others, including leaks from the satellite antenna and the center brake light. Please help. My truck gets wet every time it rains and the wet, musty odor that follows is disgusting. I have also heard that Ford considers this a cosmetic issue much like door dings and scratches. Not fair!!!.
I was on the interstate 30 east bound just east of downtown fort worth traveling at 55 mph in my 2009 f 150. I began accelerating to overtake a slower vehicle. The throttle stuck at what seem to be a wide open position, I had passed the car and let off the gas and pressed the brake 3 times before for the truck stopped accelerating and I had reached a speed of 95 mph before I was able to get the truck back under control. It seemed like the throttle was stuck for around 10 seconds, which was a very scary 10 seconds. I just finished reading a few forums where the dealership said it was the rubber floor mats that caused the problem. Well I have not put floor mats in my truck so that was defiantly not the cause of the problem.
