2014 F-150 has issues with shifting while driving and losing voltage to the transmission lead frame. Safety issue for driving and changing to incorrect gears. When stationary in park, the truck will not start due to loss of voltage and parking sensor issues. Odometer display shows wrench icon shows while driving. Error codes P0706 and P0707 codes show up while driving. Ford dealership has done diagnostics and has determined the problem is the Transmission Molded Lead Frame Electrical Failure. They have reported that this is a common issue.

Driving on the freeway, speedometer starts randomly sensing different speeds like the output speed sensor is not reading correctly. Transmission then downshifts to the speed that the OSS is reading and downshifts to 1st gear while im driving on the freeway going 65mph. It was so abrupt that it locked the differential and chirped the tires, again all while going freeway speeds in traffic! Could have gotten rear ended or caused an accident. I will be taking to Ford to see what they say but i shouldnt have to pay a dime for manufacturing defect and safety issue.

When the battery dies and the vehicle doors are locked you can not unlock the door with the physical key. Doors will not open. I am thankful I was not inside or I would have to break the window to get out.

This make and model is having the exact same 6 speed transmission issues as earlier recalls. The final straw was when the truck failed to register the speed and slowly crept into oncoming traffic at night, while I turned left. It bucks and shifts hard at neighborhood and highway speeds. More often than not, it is a down speed shift and aggressive, whiplash buck. I lose control of the vehicle and the speedometer goes to 0 even at highway speeds. I called into the hotline and made a case- Case ID 11514803 but I haven't heard anything. That replacement part is on back order for a year + so my truck is unsafe and inoperable.

While driving my truck several times now it shuts off in the middle of driving it without any warning. Many lights come on oil, wrench, check 4x4, limp mode, says remove item on passenger seat. Nothing on seat. Sometimes the truck starts back up other times it does not for approximately 15 minutes. Was almost rear ended by another vehicle one time. I have complained to Ford Motor company and unfortunately got no where with my complaint. I have read many complaints on the internet about the same problem and seems like it is only a ford truck problem. Widespread in the years I have seen complaints from 2006-2020 with the same problem. Something needs to be done before someone is hurt or even killed.

Rear camera for backing is reversed. In the camera-??s view on my frontal screen the left side of the vehicular is on the right side. Safety issues when backing up due to display being reversed especially at night. Electrical system on dash computer and headlights and dash lights turn off and on periodically. They blink off and on for a few seconds. Also affects rear camera sometimes but turning off camera and computer screen said to contact the dealer for camera issues. Also have check engine light coming on. Hand held computer and car shop both state -?? low voltage, oxygen sensor, bank one, sensor one. Three times check engine light on in past 2 weeks after shop stated it was fixed. Electrical short in dash and computer screen could be shorting out sensors.

This began in November of 2022 as an Intermittent concern. At first, it appeared that I could temporally correct by pulling over completely shutting off the truck and re-starting (re-booting) but is rapidly becoming worse and today (02/09/2023) became untenable, no matter what I did; the speedometer would not work or behaved erratically for brief periods; the information center display disappeared and then became dashes; the transmission randomly down-sh*ts gears causing the wheels to lock up briefly or does not shift at all, causing engine RPMs to spike. While thankfully this has only occurred at speeds below 40 MPH, I feel that this is a safety concern for myself and others as operation of my vehicle becomes haphazard and unpredictable and I am very concerned that it may happen at higher speeds causing a crash. While I have not had the "wrench" displayed, I have read the following codes: U0401 INVALID DATA RECEIVED FROM ECM/PCM; P0316 MISFIRE AT START; P0722 OUTPUT SPEED SHAFT SENSOR The local dealer sates that he believes it to be a Molded Lead Frame issue that was recalled in previous F-150 models but as mine was a 2014, it was not covered. Obviously, the problem has not been resolved for subsequent models.Additionally, the needed replacement part is unavailable and on indefinite back-order, or as the dealer put it, on "inter-galactic back-order" So now, I have an expensive paper weight in my driveway, waiting for a part that may be months or even up to a year to arrive.

Vehicle got stuck in the snow. Tried getting vehicle out and almost had it free when I noticed the temperature gauge rising. I then shut the vehicle down and was calling for help for 10 minutes then noticed a flame come out of the engine bay. Yelled for my family to get out. Me and my wife rushed to get our kids out of the vehicle and down the road. The cab and engine bay are gone. I don-??t know what caused the fire but it needs to be figured out my family was endangered.

Approx. speed of 50 mph vehicle suddenly dropped into 1st gear resulting in rapid deceleration. Both speedometer and tach were fluctuating and had no direct correlation with actual vehicle motion. Defect was momentary and truck resumed to normal shifting pattern and normal speedometer/tach function.

When starting my truck I am now getting a hill descent control fault and service advancetrac.also shows a weak battery but the battery is new and has been checked okay.when you get these warnings the power steering becomes inoperable.also no turn signals work.I-??ve not been able to get it into my local ford service as of this time.if I keep switching it off and recranking the warnings go away and all is well.what I don-??t understand is why anyone would build a vehicle that would shut down your steering because of a warning that goes away. I have since read about other people having this happen while actually driving and losing steering and some power.this could be life threatening if your going about 70 miles an hour in the middle of traffic. I don-??t understand how it-??s legal to build a vehicle with this system.

My transmission had been acting funny earlier in the day. Like not changing gears correctly. Later in the day, driving home from work, it started bucking and and the instrument cluster started going crazy. It started accelerating and I had to hit the brakes. It never threw any codes. A couple days later driving I had no power, and instrument cluster went crazy again. I seen a wrench and finally threw a code. I keep a code reader in my truck, it threw po720. It started driving fine after I turned it off and back on. I went home and read about the Ford F150 lead frame recall and my truck was made at the same plant. However Ford says, I am not covered. I do not understand how they can cover trucks a couple months before mine.

Tonight I was using my rear defrost on my F-150 and I noticed the glass looked weird. Got out and my worst fear was true the back glass had shattered. I have only owned this truck since April I'm the second owner.

The contact owns a 2014 Ford F-150. The contact stated that while her husband was driving 40 MPH, the power steering failed with the "Service Advance trac" message displayed on the instrument panel. The contact also stated that the brake pedal and the turn signals failed to operate as needed. The contact's husband used excessive force to steer the vehicle back to the residence. The contact took the vehicle to an independent mechanic who diagnosed the vehicle with an electrical failure that could only be repaired by an authorized Ford dealer. The vehicle was then towed to a dealer where he was given an estimate for a diagnostic test. The contact was also given an estimate for the repair. Upon investigation, the contact linked the failure to NHTSA Campaign Number: 14V316000 (Steering). The manufacturer was notified of the failure and informed her that the VIN was not included in the recall. The contact was provided a case number. The vehicle was towed back to her residence and was not repaired. The failure mileage was 185,516.

On two separate occasions while driving at normal operating speed (30-40 MPH) the yellow wrench icon appeared (which I researched and found it deals with the throttle body) and I lost my speedometer, odometer, distance to empty, airbag light illuminated, and vehicle had little to no acceleration. I believe it might have something to do with the lead frame on the transmission.
