general problems of the 2017 Ford F-350

When you start the vehicle the brake pedal falls to the floor and you can not stop it. Also at a stop the brake pedal slowly falls to the floor. According to the dealer they don’t know what causes this and it still does it. They said no abs lights came on so this is normal. I don’t think it’s normal if I put it in reverse and can not get it to stop because the pedal recedes out of my reach. The truck kept going in reverse the brakes wouldn’t stop it.

Experienced a hard death wobble going downhill towing an RV. Took truck to dealer (jones Ford in wickenburg az. ) they said it was brakes and rotors. Truck had 40,000 miles. Death wobble is a known problem. Not confident that it was only the brakes after reading what others have been told.

Brake rotors are glazing over after replacement, truck is rarely driven as its a weekend vehicle in town. I was told when I took in to dealership that the problem wasnt sticking calipers at the time but dealership didnt confirm checking, they just replaced the rotors and pads then sent me on my way. Now at current servicing the problem is re-occuring. The service tech is now attempting to re-charge me to diagnose and repair. I'm simply asking to verify if there was ever any recall related to this vehicle in the past to support my issue.

Traveling on the highway at approximately 65mph. Encountered a bridge expansion joint and the front tires and steering wheel began shaking violently which resulted in loss of steering and brake control. Apparently, this is a known issue with these trucks.

Released parking brake, placed vehicle in drive and began to move forward, after moving roughly 30ft, the rear tires locked up and the vehicle skid to a stop. Repeated attempts to move the vehicle forward or backwards were unsuccessful. Lifted the rear of the vehicle, removed the rear tires and rotors and found all the parking brake pads completely delaminated (separated) from the shoes (on both sides of the vehicle). 3 out of the 4 linings were also broke. Components are available for inspection. Luckily this occurred in my driveway at slow speeds. Not confirmed by dealer, could not move the vehicle out of my driveway, removed rotors myself. No other individuals have inspected the vehicle. There were no warnings from the vehicle systems.

The truck shuts off at while running. This happens at both highway speeds and while stopped. I have taken it to the dealer but they cannot find out what has happened. When the truck shuts of the steering and brakes are not working to the level that is needed to stop the vehicle or control the vehicle, and it appear they are power asisted from the motor, so when the motor stalls they are lost.

Started vehicle, placed in reverse to back out of driveway, at end of driveway stepped on break and did not stop, pressed hard and stopped. Put truck in drive to get back on driveway and almost hit garage door as breaks did not work normally so I pressed emergency break. Shut off truck, restarted and breaks worked fine. Thought it was a computer glitch and restart corrected. Drove next several days with no problem, then on way home from store I again lost normal breaking and had no power steering . I was doing approximately 30 miles per hour on a city street. Pulled over, shut off truck and restarted but this time that did not correct problem. Drove about 1 mile to Ford dealer and turned over for repair. The vehicle only has 17k miles on it. They diagnosed the power steering pump to be bad and replaced. I have not had problem since the repair. I have about 30 miles since repair. The problem is that I received no failure or warning lights, started intermittent and if I would of been driving other different conditions I would likely of been in a serious accident. If my wife was driving she would of not been able to stop or steer the truck. I have normal strength for a 60 year old man and I could barely stop and steer the truck. If I was pull an RV I would of been in a very bad situation. I am concerned that there was no warning and concerned that after first failure it seemed to reset thus assuming a computer issue. Seems strange that a mechanical pump failed and then started working for several days before failing again. After the first failure that corrected itself, I did go to Ford dealer where I bought the car and they said they were not aware of any issues but if it happens again bring the truck in to be checked. Unfortunately, I was 60miles from my purchasing dealer so went to closest Ford dealer for the repair.

Ford e-350 2017 has a brake problem. I drove around trip from baltimore to bowie, MD where self storage zone place. With the vehicle, I was not able to stop the vehicle before the vehicle ran through the gate itself. Brake was frozen and unable to press the brake but the brake was released after the gate was broken then I stopped it immediately. Its engine powerful run slow itself despite I stopped it but it continued to run through gate despite I applied the brake. There was skid on the road though brake was not working.
