Pulled out of driveway and made it 50 feet and whole truck shut down right on the road. Could not make the vehical restart no click or anything dead right where it stopped. Could of caused an accident. Had to have truck taken to a shop they took a week to find out that the electrical fuel system harness had a dead short in it. So no fuel going to the feul injectors or to the key to start the vehical. Still have head lights and breaks and radio. Just no way to restart the vehical. They checked thw wires and after unplugging many wires to the fuel system and retesting it started. Left with the truck a day later the same thing happen but this time i had to jump a curb to avoid an accident and coasted into a parking lot. I got out and wiggled a few of the wires and the truck started back up. I made it back to where i was staying only 2 blocks up the road and it died in the parking lot in a stall. That has been over 3 weeks and cant find the parts to fix it even by talking to ford shops. There not able to get this harness due to they have been discontinued...truck has low miles on it and now i dont know what to DO. This is my daily driver for WORK. This shouldnt of happened with the wires being wrapped even the mechanic who has his own shop but also works for Ford as a mechanic he has seen this before and now having problems getting parts. I hope you can help with this matter. Due to its very disturbing to myself when its in good shape and was taken care of and NOW cant get parts..

Transmission clunks. Truck stalls in traffic because of throttle body problems. It has been an on going problem over the past several years.

Have owned this truck bought new, 2005. Have used sparingly only 15K + miles. Over the years I have experianced a number of occasions when it tried to accellerate when I went to brake. First thought it a quirk or floor mats. Recently nearly trashed a parked car while backing ito a parking space. Continued to accellerate dispite standing on brake. There is no longer any doubt that this is a problem with sua, sudden unintended accelleration, that Ford has never admitted. I have made sure I am off the gas pedal and the floor mat has been removed. This happens when the vehicle is moving and when trying to brake!

Vehicle stalls and or surges and has dead spots. After many attempts to solve the issue it still persists. Looking on line it is a common problem with this vehicle.2005 -2008 F 150 5.4. it is especially dangerous when towing a trailer my wife has almost got into accidents a couple of times while towing a horse trailer and is now afraid to drive the truck. Spoke to Ford but no real response. I think this issue needs to be looked at further especially when considering people do tow with their trucks and it amplifies this issue. Thanks mario.

Upon accelerating while moving the vehicle jumps. Sometimes once, sometimes several times before kicking in.

Purchased Ford F150 from old saybrook Ford, Feb. 16. the truck has the 5.4 engine which has numerous complaints of engine failure. Driving on route 1 when truck eccelorates or loses power. When we bought the truck the chain guide was broke and eating through the case. Spark plugs get stuck in engine or propel them selves through the truck hood. Dangerous engine to have on road. I owe $8000 on a truck that now needs 4-6000 worth of work.

While driving 75 on a toll road the engine went into engine fail safe mode, I lost all power and almost wrecked into oncoming traffic trying to get to the shoulder, I went to a mechanic and they replaced the throttle body, 3 days later same thing, I was told this is a common problem on this motor 5.4, why is there not a recall on this ??

Truck began ticking very loudly, then began a knocking noise, and now the engine shakes the truck when idling. Cam phasers broke apart causing damage to the timing chain. Sudden loss of power to the engine as well as inability to maintain speed while ascending an incline is frequent. The loss of speed and power has caused us several close-call accidents. Truck will simply not accelerate while pressing the gas pedal. Additionally, it also feels like the truck cannot catch gears while in motion.

Known issue with fuel injectors caused premature engine failure at 45K mi. Too much fuel when compressed and ignited blew the piston apart. Ford replaced engine. 80K miles later similar problems and recommendation is another engine. Two 5.4L engines with less than 130K overall miles is absolutely unacceptable. Web searches say there is current litigation in progress over these 5.4L engines. I'm making a formal complaint that the basis of the lawsuit has merit. Ford has already settled a suit over the spark plugs for these 5.4L but the problems with these engines goes much deeper. I'm thankful my engine failures happened without any additional incident.

I purchased my 2005 F150 with a 5.4L trinitron engine used in 2010. I completed all regular scheduled maintenance using the recommended products, most of it done in Ford dealerships. This 5.4L engine is a poor design and should be recalled. It has numerous problems. I had a safety inspection done at a Ford dealership and it passed even though it had a ticking sound in the engine and I had hesitation and loss of power. Replace spark plugs, I had already replaced the transmission at 98,000 miles! this engine is a piece of junk! Ford needs to stand behind its' "built Ford tough" trucks and make this right. I cant enjoy my truck!!!

I purchased my 2005 Ford F-150 right out of the show in 2005 and first began have jerking issues 6 month later a mechanic then told me that it was related to the fuel injectors. Since that time I had to replace the transmission twice in 2008, a timing chain and bent rods in 2014 and currently another timing bent rods and debri from the oil pan. All caused from the initial faulty fuel injector issues continuing from less than one year after the original purchase in 2005. I've sent over $9500 in mechanic cost to date.

I attempted to start my truck, it turned over but would not start. I had the truck towed to the local Ford dealership where I purchased it new, and found the cause of the no start condition to be the fuel pump driver module. (part number 5L3A-9D370-aa) I asked to have the part saved for my inspection. What I found was very disturbing. The aluminum case of the module was cracked in half and has a dime size hole eroded thru. By chance, one of my work associated who has a 2004 F150 had a flat tire this morning (just three days after my experience with this problem) and had the spare tire down. I looked underneath his truck and found his truck to have a module in as poor condition as the one I had replaced. I took a picture that I would be happy to forward. Two additional work associates with 2004 - 2005 F150's have experienced this same problem with their trucks, I have also read several online posts today of this very same problem. This is not an issue of normal wear of a part, this is a definite design flaw and safety issue. The module in question is mounted above the spare tire on the drivers side rear axle. The tire is mounted for storage to the underside of the truck. The aluminum cover of the module is mounted against the steel axle and seems to act like a sacrificial anode as the module cover erodes and cracks to the point of near total destruction exposing a circuit board to the elements. It would seem this module would be placed in an area that would be less likely to destroyed by the elements or encapsulated or coated in a way that protect it. Any vehicle that can become subject to stall from a failed part is a safety concern and on this scale should be cause for recall consideration. The cost for this repair "parts and labor" at a dealership is approximately $400.

The vehicle began to smell like raw fuel, particularly at stop signs or intersections. The smell appeared to be coming from the engine bay. Upon disassembly of the intake components of the engine to expose the fuel injection system, it was evident that the fuel rail had begun leaking raw fuel inside the engine bay. The fuel rail developed a speck of corrosion about 2-3mm in diameter on the top surface of the rail. The corrosion evidently penetrated the entire rail and became a pinhole leak. Raw fuel was seen leaking up and out of the pinhole. This happened on the passenger side fuel rail, which is positioned inches away from the high voltage coil pack, and above the exhaust manifold as well. Called Ford customer service hotline and was told there is no recall for it, no extended warranty program, no assistance whatsoever. Ordered a new fuel rail through local Ford dealer for $500 dollars (4 times what a typical fuel rail costs); part has not been shipped, dealer unsure if Ford has any in stock or is even making the part. Truck has been inoperable for over a week with no way to fix it.

Ok so we bought a Ford F150 2005 on Friday of last week which would be 08/09/2013. The man assured us this was a safe and reliable vehicle. So we start our trip across the country to look at a new house in eastern North Carolina. We stopped in Arizona to see my girlfriends mom. Sur enough the truck would not start the next day. We take it to a mechanic and he says its the fuel pump so he changes it out we drive it 2 blocks down the street back to her parents house turn off the truck load it up with our stuff and it will not start again. So the mechanic comes back over says ok it must be the fuel modulator. So he changes out the fuel modulator and sure enough it worked we drove it two blocks turned it off, reloaded the truck again. Again it would not start back up, apparently the new modulator killed the brand new fuel pump we just paid $500 for so now we have to get another fuel pump as well. I am not happy after doing research there is thousands of people having the same problem and if anything like us we now have paid nearly $1000 to fix a problem that could easily be changed by Ford mounting the fuel modulate under the hood near the engine like the rest of the modulators. Would you please look into this as soon as you can this is so uncalled for a lot of us work to hard for our money and our vehicles to have them break down with the same problem every time we stop. Included is a link to video where the guy explains the problem and all the people who have had the problem as well. www.youtube.com/watch?V=_2E9kmf1_kg.
