Other Fuel System Pump problems of the 2014 Ford F-150

While traveling on I 75 to florida engine ck light activated. Was a cautionary light. Upon getting to FL took my truck to a Ford dealer who found that both fuel pumps had failed. I now see Ford is recalling F-150 trucks due to faulty fuel pumps. I believe all F-150 trucks should be under the recall. Driving at 70 mph and having the engine unable to maintain highway speed is dangerous and very nerve wracking.

There's a known problem with fuse #27 overheating and causing the fuel pump to stop working. Do a google search. It affects many years prior to 2014. This is serious as it can leave people stranded. It has not thrown a computer code from 2014 f15. Simply replacing the fuse did allow starting but it will happen again. There's a fuse relocation kit (el3z-14293a) available but Ford should be responsible for performing this repair. The fuse does'nt blow out but the fuse socket overheats for some reason.

Due to the fuse box being is located above the radiator, it is exposed to direct heat, and caused the fuel pump relay fuse to completely melt. This caused my truck to completely die twice while on the highway and almost caused an accident. This is extremely unsafe, and Ford should recall this issue since it is a very common issue that drivers are having. A simple fuse box relocation would be an easy solution.

Was having trouble starting my truck one day. Cranking and cranking but not firing. Sometimes it would eventually fire, sometimes it required a jump to get it going. Took it into Ford, they replaced the battery. Didn't happen for a few more days. Same thing. Crank, crank, crank, but wouldn't start. Did some searching online, and found similar situation regarding a burnt/melted fuse 27 (the fuel pump fuse). Ford knows about this issue so much that they even created a part to move the fuel pump to a larger fuse. I'm glad this issue only happened while sitting still and I was able to get the fused replaced without incident. However, I would imagine that soon my vehicle would have stopped while traveling due to the fuel pump fuse completely dying. Also seems like a fire hazard, or it could do further damage to the fuse box or to surrounding fuses. Ford should issue a recall for this immediately.

Tl the contact owns a 2014 Ford F-150. While accelerating from a stop light, the vehicle suddenly stalled, shut off, and the check engine and oil indicators illuminated. The vehicle could not be restarted and was towed to auffenberg Ford (115 regency park, o'fallon, IL) where it was diagnosed that the fuel pump modulator was faulty and needed to be replaced. Also, a fuse needed to be relocated. The manufacturer was notified of the failure, but no assistance was offered. The failure mileage was 130,000.

On 2 separate occasions with me and 1 occasion with a Ford service tech. (all of which occurred between the dates of sept 13 and 18, 2019) my f150 engine shutdown while driving. My first occurrence was while attempting to accelerate onto interstate 24 in chattanooga,TN. Second occurrence was when I was driving in heavy afternoon traffic on us hwy 27 in rossville, GA. Both times I was able to coast the vehicle to side of the road or parking lot to re start vehicle. After each occurence I took vehicle to a mechanic to check vehicle. The first time was a local shop due to know dealerships close by, second time I was close to mtn view Ford in chattanooga, TN. After trouble shooting and vehicle shutting off on the technician, they were able to trace the use down that is pictured. The truck did not leave any error codes or indications to issue. When the vehicle was not causing the immediate issue it was running fine with no problems indicated. The technician did indicate to me that this has happened several times that he was aware of. With that being said, I feel that this issue should have been placed into a recall due to the danger that I encountered with the vehicle shutting off while on interstate and major highway with no indications of issues. I have attempted to contact Ford about this issue but their automated system does not offer a path to report issues. I was told that this fuse is the one for the fuel pump. Mdf.

Tl- the contact owns a 2014 Ford F-150. The contact stated that when they attempted to start the vehicle, the vehicle failed to start. The contact looked under the hood of the vehicle and noticed that the fuel pump module was burned on one side. The contact had not contacted the dealership. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure and informed the contact that there was no recall for the fuel pump module to be re[placed at this time and referred the contact to NHTSA to file a complaint. The vehicle had not been repaired. The approximate failure mileage was 83,400. Gl.

While traveling eastbound doing 65 mph and towing a travel trailer on I-10 (FL panhandle), the engine shut off. We were able to pull off to the shoulder because we were traveling in the right lane. After getting to a repair garage, we were told by a former Ford mechanic that there had been a TSB issued for micro fuse #27 which controls fuel pump relay. Ford has issued a repair kit to replace the fuse with a cartridge maxi fuse in the #70 empty spot on the fuse panel. The mechanic performed this fuse replacement and the truck is now running fine for 400 miles. The mechanic immediately knew the problem and stated that he had performed this repair "several times" while working for a Ford dealer.

3 times this has happened, 1st time I had just filled up went to pull off and proceeded to get on highway, truck started to run rough and had no throttle response and wrench light came on. Pulled off road, turned off, after a few minutes restarted truck and no problems the rest of the day. The 2nd time I was getting ready to get on the interstate and truck did the same thing started running rough, no throttle response and wrench light came on again. Pulled on shoulder and shut vehicle off, restarted after a few minutes again after the restart no problems ( no check engine light either time). Then on the same evening it did it again and in traffic this time and with no where to pull over. Ford knows about the problem, every Ford forum talks about the problem especially when it comes to the ecoboost. Someone is going to get killed with this problem. Took vehicle to dealer and there was a TSB to relocate the fuel pump driver fuse because they say it gets hot and shorts out( if that's the case it shouldn't do it right after initial start up). Again Ford is playing with people's lives; all they care about is the dollars. .

Intermittent problem with truck not starting. Took truck to Ford dealer and they said they will need to installl a fuel pump fuse relocation kit. I asked the reason why and was told that this fuse will continue to short out until the kit was installed. Truck is three years old and fuse location or some problem exists that will shut down fuel pump. No recall and no warranty? truck would not start for me about 10 to 15 different times. I'm glad the fuse did not short out while driving. No damage other then my time and $330. 00 for diagnostic and repair "kit" from Ford.
