36 Warnings problem of the 2018 Ford F-150

Failure Date: 01/01/2022

The vehicles electronic systems all seem to be going haywire. Towing alerts are given when not actual or sometimes not even towing. Backup camera is on/off when backing up then touch screen does not function for several minutes after backup camera was on. Towing and backup camera malfunctions affect driver safety and vehicle accident prevention. The problem has not been looked at and/or repaired by dealer as I'm investigating what the issue 'may be' (first indication is apim module???) no oem or police inspections performed started winter/spring 2022 and have gotten worse. First signs were trailer warning alerts then progressed with gps and backup camera outages. Now none of vehicles electronics seem to be function at or even near 100 percent effective.

37 Warnings problem of the 2018 Ford F-150

Failure Date: 02/24/2021

I purchased it brand new in October 2018, doors would randomly fly open when cornering. I brought it in there was a recall it was fixed. Then when it is below 30 degrees my rear sensor drivers side would show a steady red and beep when there was no danger. The dealer told me that there is most likely moisture in the sensor but would not replace it. Then at 41,000 miles my engine blew a rod. They told me I was not changing oil frequently enough. I change my own oil. I provided receipts for oil but they would not warranty it, I paid $15,000 out of pocket to have a new engine installed. I called Ford corporate and after four months of investigating they had the dealer refund my money. Then at 43,000 miles I was on vacation and the sunroof would not close. I brought it to a local dealer who said there might be something in the track but they would need the truck for 4 days and I was leaving the next day. I brought it to my local dealer upon return and they charged me $4,300 to replace the entire panoramic roof rails and chassis. Most recently my 10 speed transmission was shifting very hard and in the weeks following that a check engine light came on. I called another local dealer because I had lost all confidence in the dealer I purchased the truck new from. They told me that the wiring harness for the transmission was not properly secured and chafing caused it to run through and cause false and intermittent signals. They told me because it was negligence on the dealer who replaced the engine. I would have to go after them for the $800 fix. The same dealer who replaced the harness called me later that week while waiting for the part, told me that it was now the trans valve core. They replaced it and it is has not changed anything. They are currently waiting on direction from Ford. I have been in a loaner or rental for well over 90 days cummulativley. Unnacceptable!.

39 Warnings problem of the 2018 Ford F-150

Failure Date: 01/26/2021

The transmission shifts very hard in the first 5 gears of the 10 speed transmission. It is hit or miss on whether or not it does it, but it does raise a concern on how it jerks, especially when my daughter things I am braking hard, but it is really just the transmission.

40 Warnings problem of the 2014 Ford F-150

Failure Date: 01/22/2021

Backup camera only works intermittently. Most of the time the display just says "rear camera unavailable," sometimes just a blue screen, and occasionally will display the image briefly, then go bluescreen/camera unavailable. Turning ignition off, then restarting may reset camera and briefly display the image, then bluescreen/unavailable again.

41 Warnings problem of the 2020 Ford F-150

Failure Date: 12/26/2020

My truck has 4 backup collision warning sensors on the rear bumper. After some heavy rain, I have had 1 sensor start to indicate a close object as I start to back up my vehicle. There is no object back there. This initially occurred in a parking lot, but the problem now persists and the audible warning with a dash camera indicator light goes off whenever I back up the truck.

44 Warnings problem of the 2019 Ford F-150

Failure Date: 09/10/2019

Ford recalls 600,000-plus vehicles to fix backup cameras included the 2020 F-150 but not the 2019 F-150. My vehicle is experiencing the same issues. In fact the cameras have been replaced by the dealer 7 times and they are still not working. I feel this should be covered under the same recall as the 2020s.

47 Warnings problem of the 2015 Ford F-150

Failure Date: 12/31/1969

My truck has two issues . Back up camera is faulty and the dealer refused to repair. It was going on and off at times which is a problem when you are trying to back up and not have an accident. The truck brake pedal got stuck and it was causing my truck to rev up and down I was able to get it home and it cost me thousands to fix at the dealer. Red mccombs dealership on I 10 in sa texas is where I go they dont want to fix anything on a recall and you have to pay each time and then they dont fix. I could have had a serious accident each time but I feel blessed that I didnt.
