Rearview System Braking problems of the 2016 Ford F-150

Rear backup camera failed and is just showing a blue screen or black screen with squiggly lines.

Uncommand downshift of the transmission at 50mph causing the rear wheels to skid. This was accompanied by “blind spot system fault”, “cross traffic system fault”, “see manual” warnings and a loss of transmission position indications (ie. . P-r-n-d-m-2-1). This appears to be similar to NHTSA recal # 24s37 for 2014 F-150’s.

2016 f150 lariat - backup camera warning system is not working. Safety issue - when the vehicle transmission is placed in reverse the backup camera does not function. The touch screen in the cab displays a blue screen with the words "please check surroundings for safety". The camera image displaying the rear area behind the vehicle should be displayed in the touch screen in the cab. This backup camera warning system malfunction has recently been reported and included in a large recall including 2017 vehicles but does not include the 2016 vehicles.

I took my 2016 Ford F-150 lariat in for repairs. I was getting a dash light on blind spot warning and cross traffic warning. My service advisor called and told me I needed a battery junction box but that part was no longer available and that my truck will begin to break down. It only has 46,611 miles and otherwise in excellent condition. I can't believe Ford does not have access the this part to fix my truck. Any suggestions?.

Power train failed and truck began to jerk and I lost control of the throttle. I had to throw myself (the truck) on the shoulder to avoid danger. Blinking lights on the dash board occurred. San leandro Ford diagnosed issue as bad transmission and replaced it in November 2024. Inspected on site by authorized dealer. Told me customer problem must pay to have it replaced!! when I tried contacting national Ford representative and bill brandt dealership in brentwood where purchased in oct. 2016, no one wanted to take responsibility.

Driving vehicle after about 20min of run time the transmission downshifts hard and all or most driver assistance feature warnings alert they are not functioning. Engine rpms raise but vehicle does not move. Vehicle got stranded on busy road during rush hour with no ability to move on its' own. Check engine light and other warnings on dashboard. Later diagnosis with a scan tool and pin point testing verified that the lead frame inside the transmission has failed at 80k miles. More concerning than early failure is the safety problem this poses. Braking, steering, and propulsion are all affected significantly! once vehicle is stopped and put into park it won't shift or start again. Also if the vehicle is in park when symptoms are present any input on the gas pedal raises and holds the engine rpm at redline/rev-limiter for approximately 5 seconds. Tps sensors and throttle body are all functioning properly.

On 3/28/2024 while driving at interstate speed of 70 mph. Truck down shifted from 6th to 5th gear momentarily locking break brakes. Cross traffic light warning, blind spot warning, check engine light all illuminated at moment of downshift. The gear indicator light was no longer visible. The transmission position drive, neutral, reverse etc. Was no longer illuminated. Additionally, the climate controls loss lighting. The down shift was so violent, traffic had to swerver into the median to avoid rear end collision. After pulling to the shoulder, I turned the truck off. With the truck in the off position, I depressed the brake to efforts to restart the truck; however, the brake pedal was solid, and truck could not be restarted. You could only place truck into accessory mode. I disconnected the battery and waited 5 min and reconnected it. The truck then started and all dash alarms cleared. I cautiously drove home with no issue. On 3/29 I took the truck to Ford dealership joe cooper 600 w memorial rd, oklahoma city, ok 73114 (405) 475-9000. On the way to the Ford dealership the truck again down shifted unexpectedly. Knowing the truck would not restart I drove the truck in 5th gear at slow speed 25mph and the truck would not down shift lower that5th. The dealership was able to catch codes on a scan and told me it would be as early as 4/1 before they could investigate. The stated most of the time the reflash the system. This is unacceptable as a root cause. If the software is a fault and it can randomly become corrupt while drive at a random given date. This issue requires Ford to be held accountable. On 3/30 and I stood in shock when on cbs news a story came out that 2014 trucks are experiencing the same thing. I can prove my truck was in the shop and my story is documented from dealer prior to any news story. I hope my information drives further investigation and that it helps to save an accident or god forbid a death.

Vehicle randomly shifts into 1st or 2nd gear while driving at highway speeds. The wheels lock up and skid, then enters into limp mode. After the incident, the vehicle displays a "check manual," "blind spot detection," and "cross-traffic sensor" light display. After a few minutes in limp mode, the vehicle will correct itself and begin driving normally. This happens 70% of the times I drive the vehicle. I have taken it to the Ford dealer 3 separate times. The warranty company won't fix it because when they drive it, it doesn't recreate the issue, and they tell me to keep driving it until the transmission goes out completely.

The passenger door won’t latch when I open it. Then won’t latch to close. And my rear camera traffic warning randomly goes off without nothing being in the way annoying to say the least……. Please help.
