Takata recall. I put my truck in drive and as soon as I get over 2-5 mph it shifts from 1st gear to 3rd. When this happens I loss the speedometer and my turn signals will not turn off. Check engine light comes on with a big wrench in the center of my gauges. Will not down shift below 3rd and will not go into 6th. Also the odometer, mpg, and trips all go blank.code P0720. Output speed sensor circuit. I'm told by Ford and a transmission shop that it's in the transmission! truck just hit 69147 miles and I haven't owned it three weeks yet.

This morning at about 5:30 am I left to go to the gym and had no problems with my truck. I get home about 7:00 am grab my stuff out of the back and no problems with my truck. Before leaving for work about a half hour later I auto started the truck. I get to the truck to leave for work and I notice my driver side rear window is completely shattered! I did a little research and come to find that this is a reoccurring problem with Ford. Either there is a defect with the window or with rear defrost getting to hot or staying on to long. There were little bits of glass on the seat, what if someone was sitting in the back and the whole window shatters? this is not safe and needs to be fixed!

Around 100K miles. Truck all of a sudden started to hard shift. Eventually would throw orange wrench light and speedometer would quit working and would have trouble getting the speed up as if it werent shifting. Air bag light will come and stay on. A reboot would take these problems away temporarily. I've read same owners have experienced same issues online on the F150 forum.

- Woodward, OK, USA

It was about 20 degrees out and I drove to work with my front and rear defrosters on. After I backed into my parking spot I heard a very loud pop or bang. Startled me. I got out and couldn't see anything wrong although it was still dark out. When driving home, I noticed the drivers side portion of the rear power sliding window was shattered. I'm pissed! called the dealer and was told to bring it in for an estimate. Was told it's not covered and my warranty is expired anyway. Come to find out it's a common problem. Obvious safety issue here.

While driving the vehicle it will downshift from higher gears and then no longer shifts or registers speed - wrench light will illuminate on dash. The speedometer will also drop down to zero and no longer register any speed even though the truck is moving. The digital display will display dashes and the air bag light indicator will stay lite. When you unbuckle the seat belt the indicator light will not illuminate. Took it in to have battery tested and had 100% charge but reading indicated a bad battery so had it replaced but issue still presented itself an hour later. Issue occurs intermittently and without warning. Took it to mechanic and they had it for two days and unable to replicate situation. Also took it to dealer and was told they couldn't do anything if the issue never presented itself while they had the truck. Asked if issue was ever presented at that facility or any known issues and was told no. Issue has occurred on four separate occasions over the last 20 days.

It has done everything while traveling down the highway except for the 1st gear issue that happened from a stoped position when I started to take off. Problem does happen all the time and when you pull over and place the vehicle in park and turn the engine off and restart the engine the problem goes away and then it starts it again took the truck to local dealership and was told it would cost $985 to fix this problem when it is the same problem that was recalled on the previous years truck same problem on the 2011 and 2012 also have read the problem is still accouring on the 2014 models as well

Thursday morning 12-6-18 it was about 0 degrees Fahrenheit I started my truck and turned on the rear window / mirror defroster. I was about 2 miles from the house when I heard a bang coming from my back seat area on the drivers side it was loud enough that it made me jump. At the time I could not figure out what it was but my rear defroster would no longer work. I messed around with it a few times but it would not light the dash light. Later on as the sun was shining just right I noticed the drivers side of my back window was shattered. At that point it all became clear to me what the noise was and where it had come from. F150 back glass shattered with rear defroster on.

2013 F150 downshifted from 6th gear to 1st gear while traveling approximately 50 mph. This resulted in the tires locking up as if I had slammed on the brakes. It now continues to shift erratically from 1st to 6th to 3rd. It also gets stuck in 1st gear and then will randomly shift normally and then downshift back to first gear. This has been happening frequently for some time with hard shifting but this is the first time it has dropped from 6th gear to first gear. This is definitely a safety issue and I am finding it difficult to have any nearby Ford dealerships take a look at it within the next two weeks.

On the 2012 and 2013 model year F150 with rear window defrost it is very common for the electrical wiring or connection to fail and literally blow out the back window. It also affects the heated mirrors if the truck has that option too. When the rear window blows out it can literally blow holes put of the glass. With kids having to ride in the back this is not safe. The rear defrost will work fine or malfunction a couple times and then will eventually fail and break/blow the window out. It is a very well known problem that Ford is doing nothing about. I've contacted Ford and they refuse to fix it.

The transmission will down shift into a 1st or 2nd gear unexpectedly. This has happened several times while moving at 40 to 50 mph. Also the transmission will up shift and downshift randomly causing the vehicle difficult to control. When this happens the speedometer will jump around and sometimes completely shut off. When the truck is turned of then turned on again the gauges will work again.

The fuel pump fuse (fuse 27) overheats and burns out resulting in the entire truck shutting off at speeds. This happened to me at 65 mph on a highway leaving me with no engine at that speed.

Fuel pump fuse is prone to failure due to design flaw. Ford is aware and a service bulletin has been issued. Also a 'fuse 27 relocation kit' available. This failure causes the fuel system to fail without warning and causes the vehicle to stop operating. A recall should be done or offer of free repair should be available.
