1 Adaptive Cruise Control problem of the 2024 Ford F-450

Failure Date: 10/24/2025

This is the third time I have had this issue. I will be driving my truck and will out of nowhere get a warning on the dash that says: “pre-collision assist not available” then after that happens I will not be able to set the cruise control. This can only be fixed by a trip to the dealer ship and usual takes 10-15 days to get fixed. It will work as normal for a few thousand miles than come back. It also happened approximately January 2nd with approximately 2000 and March 15th with 4000 miles.

2 Adaptive Cruise Control problem of the 2024 Ford F-450

Failure Date: 12/09/2024

A warning comes on stating the pre-collision assist not available and does not go away. Adaptive cruise control and standard cruise control also do not work. It has been at the dealer and they can not get it to work. From reading online this has happened to a handful of 2024 Ford super dutys.

3 Adaptive Cruise Control problem of the 2020 Ford F-450

Failure Date: 07/08/2022

Recall on my f450 with no remedy, Ford will not give me an equivalent replacement - this is putting lives in danger. All of the dash engine lights will come on, no abs, no traction control, no brakes whatsoever, power loss, will not go over 2k rpm. Then truck will not go into park when it does stop. It is an extreme danger to myself and others to not be able to drive or brake my truck. Ford is “too busy” to even diagnose the problem even though it is clearly because of the recall. This needs to be remedied before someone gets hurt.
