general problems of the 2018 Ford F-250

Leaving stop sign turning right onto cross street. Touched accelerator pedal and truck lurched forward under what seemed to be full throttle. (unintended acceleration) jammed on the brake pedal stopping vehicle. Engine still revs still high and rear tire started to squeal/spin on pavement. Grabbed shifter and threw into park then immediately grabbed key and turned vehicle off. Upon restart normal operation resumed. No mats in area of accelerator pedal. No odbc error codes. Did not have foot on both pedals. Scheduled to go to dealer for investigation.

This particular truck has heated front seats. While I was driving today 2/18/2022 at about 2:35pm the passenger heated seat was on and the seat caught on fire. The seat was empty and nothing was on the seat. I looked over and there were flames coming from the seat. A hole about a quarter in size was burned in my seat.

Tl- the contact owns a 2018 Ford F-250. The contact stated that while driver 60 mph smoke was present coming from the rear of the vehicle. After pulling over and stopping the vehicle smoke and flames were present coming from the passenger side dashboard. The fire department was called to the scene and extinguished the flames. The vehicle was destroyed and towed away. The cause of the failure was not determined. The local dealer and manufacturer were not notified of the incident. The failure mileage was 110,000. Jft.

On 4/19/19 I misfueled my diesel vehicle. I stopped the process immediately and called Ford from the filling station. The Ford service center said that I should avoid turning the engine on, or even placing the engine in accessory mode because it would engage the fuel pump and flood the system with gasoline. When the tow truck arrived, it became clear that I could not put the vehicle in neutral to be winched onto the flatbed tow truck without turning on the accessory mode. I called Ford for an alternative. Ford recommended that I disconnect a cable beneath the truck that would disengage the transmission and allow the truck to move. Because I could not figure out how to do this, I had to turn on the accessory to get the truck out of park for towing. This caused about $12,000 in damage to the fuel system. More to the point of this complaint, I later discovered that this procedure is not in the manual for my truck. Further, the procedure that is in the manual was not mentioned. It is possible that the Ford manual contains a procedure that does not apply to the truck. It is also possible that Ford is recommending a procedure that is inherently more dangerous than the procedure in the manual.

2018 f250 with snowplow prep package. Lose of power during plowing. Dimming of dash lights, and voltage errors on salter. The worst part is that the truck has lost complete power twice! stalling while driving in parking lots lose of steering, and breaks!!! the dealership, and Ford themselves are aware of the problem, but no actions have been made. Going on 2 years. Other trucks have been brought to the dealership with the same issues. Ford is just giving us the run around!!!!!! this is no small issue and the dealership agrees.
