I am writing to formally escalate my ongoing complaint regarding my Ford truck and the repeated problems I have experienced with it over the years. At this point, this is no longer simply a matter of dissatisfaction with a dealership repair. I am asking Ford motor company at the corporate level to take responsibility for reviewing the complete history of this vehicle and the repeated unsuccessful attempts to correct the problems I have experienced. Most recently, my truck was brought to **salem nh Ford on August 25, 2026, because of the ongoing powertrain malfunction and sudden loss-of-power problem**. This was the **fifth time** I have brought the truck in for this same ongoing powertrain problem. The dealership kept my truck for * full days**, from August 25 through September 4, 2026. During that time, Ford provided me with a loaner vehicle. I was eventually contacted by the dealership and told that my truck was ready to be picked up. I was also told that they believed they had fixed the powertrain problem. Unfortunately, that was not the case. ### the powertrain malfunction returned almost immediately after picking up my truck on **September 4, 2026**, I began driving it again. Then, on **September 7, 2026 — only three days after picking it up from Ford — the powertrain malfunction happened again**. This was extremely upsetting and frustrating. Ford had my truck for ten days. This was already the **fifth service visit for the same ongoing powertrain problem.
My 2019 f150 10r80 transmission failure it would jerk between gears also down gears on highway speed on its own the truck has 92k miles.
Had oil change 7 times in one year and each time they indicate at the place I get oil changed that it is a quart or more low before 3,000 miles of usage after oil change. My car is suppose to take unleaded gas or higher and it knocks if I use unloaded. Now my catalytic converter is going out and it is not covered under warranty unless it is consequential to other problems. Well there appears to be engine problems that are not being addressed and I have a warranty and have taken it in. But they do not look any deeper into the problem except for computer scan and the warranty people won’t give me any answers on what they will do if there is engine problems.
Transmission with no prior issues started to delay shift and have a hard time shifting through gears then would skip gears and get stuck in gears cause the truck to harshly stall and jerk, front collision warning randomly coming on just going down the road.
The apim becomes inoperative at random times for ~8 hours. When this happens the entire dashboard goes black and you can’t tell your speed, turn signals, rpm, engine temp, oil pressure, etc. You are driving with no indicators and have no idea what your speed is or any other critical indication. Apim stands for accessory protocol interface module, also known as the Ford sync computer. It's a key component of the sync system in Ford vehicles. Ford has equipped vehicles with the apim since its inception, but there have been complaints and recalls related to it.
Automatic emergency braking system unavailable, front collision camera failure.
While driving vehicle displays "service advance trac", "pre collision assist not available", "hill assist not available" and the drive mode will not work. Brake lights are also on all the time as well. Dealership says the vehicles steering column needs to be replaced only 2 months after purchase. Dealer has diagnosed the issue but did not provide codes.
On July 14, 2022, I took my f150 to Ford and it was determined that the 10 speed transmission was going to need to be replaced. I had 60,400 miles on it when it starts having major malfunction going on in the powertrain. At the time the transmission replacement was being done, it was Ford’s knowledge that the cam phasers were not functioning correctly. . Causing sudden jerk and knocking. . Cam phasers we’re not replace last year nor looked at, even though I told them that there was sudden jerks happening. It was under warranty at that time (last year). Ford also knew that reprogramming the trucks software, does not correct any of the problems that they are having. Now at 70,000 miles I’m going back in to, southwest Ford in hudson oaks, texas, to get these parts replaced as soon as they are available. They are requesting $700 (just like when the transmission was replaced). Which it is my opinion that the total amount should be covered-$1800.
Every time I start my vehicle 2 error messages appear on the instrument cluster saying crash dectection camera has malfunction and that crash detection has been disabled. Ford dealership says they can’t fix it and that I am stuck with it like that. They have tried blaming it on safelite for replacing the windshield with a lower quality windshield.
When accelerating the transmission will grind in neutral. Let of gas and will finally shift in gear. Happened 2 years ago when I bought it new. Now 3 times in the last 2 months. Ford dealers where I live don't have transmission mechanics. Shifts all over the place and has metal rattling noise. Unsafe to drive with just lest then 30k miles.
Warning light comes on intermittently . Took to Ford dealer and was told aftermarket bug deflecter was causing the issue. My CO worker has the same exact vehicle without deflector and has the same problem. My vehicle has only 22000 miles and this has being an ongoing issue from since 2019. They will not honor their warranty and was told to take it back to the Ford dealer I bought it from. This is a safety issue because it startles you when it goes off and you are nowhere close to a vehicle.
On 3/6/2020 I was in a serious car accident in the vehicle. Which required surgeries for not only myself but also other drivers on the road. The driver air bags did not deploy, the turck was totaled and had body damage around the entire vehicle. There was a blood stain from my head hitting the driver door window but no air bag deployment. The gas pedal was not attached when reviewing the photos taken. The collision detection did not detect. We have asked Ford motor company to come and look at the car as it has been in a protective hold but the response from fmc was that due to covid they would not send anyone and we were left on out own. There were no warning messages, lamps, lights or indicators prior to the collision.
The collision warning appears random and not even close to a vehicle. I’m alamo experience problems with the power train (truck jerks) and not other problems. I have been having the same problems since 2020. My truck is at the dealership and now Ford engineers are involved because the trucks has multiple codes and unable to figure out the problem. My truck has been at the dealership since may 17-June 1st and June 7 to current.
