This seems to be a known issue with the f-150 engines. I am having issues with the engine making noises and appears to be caused by a warped engine exhaust manifold. Ford has released a safety bulletin on this, but has not issued a recall even from the amount of people that are experiencing this issue.

Truck has an oil pan leak which FORD will not repair, but requires me to pay for the oil leak. It was a manufacturing defect and believe in time this could cause a fire down the road if it's not fixed.

Driving down Interstate 80 at 70mph and Track Assist error, then Hill Start Assist Unavailable Error, Wrench light (see manual), engine light. I depress the gas pedal and there is no response, the engine rpm does not increase. I have to pull off to the side of the interstate, towing a boat, luckily not in construction zone ahead with concrete barriers on both sides. Turn off and restart, the engine / rpm still do not respond. Turned off for 5 minutes while I make a call. Turn on again and rough idle but the engine responds and I am able to drive the remaining 15 miles to home. Exact thing happened again 4 days later on 2 lane, hilly, country highway without a shoulder. I stopped in the road, hazards on, turned off/on again, didn't respond to gas. Wait 5 minutes turned on again and was able to get to home.

Ford has issued a recall back in 2019 for faulty oil pans. My 2016 Ford F-150 has had 4 oil pan replacements and is needing a 5th. When running a carfax, the dealership that has completed the repairs is not reporting any of these issues. Jackson Ford in Decatur, il. The attached photo is from the truck sitting for 24 hours. When I logged onto the NHTSA website to see if maybe I could get another recall repair at a different dealership, no active recalls are out. I'd like to try just 1 more dealership to get this issue fixed.

Exhaust manifold leak at 45000 miles.

- Sacramento, CA, USA

When towing and coming to a stop my vehicle stalls and dies. It will not stay running. To keep it running I have to put in neutral and press the gas pedal to keep it running and then put into gear and take off. This is not safe. It is the 2.7L ecoboost. I took it to our local Ford where it happened to the tech that took my truck in for inspection and then they said the service tech could not replicate the issue. They charged me $130 diagnosis fee and said they couldn't find the issue and called for me to pick up my vehicle. This is happening all over the country and something needs to be done.

Exhaust manifold warped leaking. Gradually becoming worse. First noticed noise in 2020.

- Lockport, IL, USA

2016 F-150 3.5L 4X4 ecoboost with max towing package - vehicle suddenly and w/O warning caught fire and engulfed in flames within 10 minutes of hearing a humming sound and then seeing white or gray smoke. We were towing our 28 ft travel trailer for the first time in about 4-5 months, 30 minutes into the trip on a flat highway. Pulled over within 1 min of hearing the noise/ seeing smoke. Upon exiting, saw flames peeking out from under front of truck. Flames hit the cab within probably 3 mins later. We had towed a 28 ft travel trailer with this vehicle extensively and comfortably with few issues (except throttle body failure around 30K miles). Regular oil changes and maintenance. Full pa state inspection 3 months prior, oil change 2K miles prior. No outstanding recall work to our knowledge. No unusual handling, smells, leaking fluids that we noticed, or warning lights. Fire investigator's best guess was sudden transmission issue because it completely burned away but we'll unfortunately never really know.

Exhaust manifold stud bolt broken on rear of drivers side manifold. Makes a loud chirping noise when accelerating. Many other owners complaining about same issue on this eco boost 3.5L engine.

- Draper, UT, USA

Truck will stall/shut off at a stop while towing. Red battery light will show on dashboard. Car will turn over then shut down again by itself within a few seconds. This happened 3 times at this point- once while in gas station in line to get gas (stationary) once at intersection (stationary at stop light), another time after stopping vehicle to get gas. At first event 30 minutes after it not working a jump started the vehicle successfully, at second instance jump would not start car, had to get towed, at third instance we were able to start vehicle by holding throttle down while putting in drive. Brought to Ford dealership- said nothing was wrong, would not work on truck, said no computer codes were found.

My 2016 Ford F-150, at around 68,000 miles, began to experienced power loss and a loud whistle or whining sound during acceleration, coming from the front left and right side of the engine. During acceleration, a high-pitched whine occurs and increases when revving the engine. Truck power loss was noticeable and boost declined, dropping to less than 25%. exhaust fumes were noticeable from inside the cab of the truck. Depaul Ford of albany, NY misdiagnosed it as a bad turbo with a stuck open wastegate and so we replaced the passenger side turbo, which did not fix the problem. The truck was brought to a highly recommended mechanic 'technician', matt, at miller's corners garage in albany, NY. He discovered the bolts and studs that hold the manifolds in place were severely rusted and the manifold was warped with significant air leak and blow by. There was a large black sooty streak on the manifold side where the turbo hooks up, where the blow-by was occurring. At a cost of $1100 the passenger side manifold, hardware and related components were replaced. The driver side manifold is not available from Ford until late December and still requires replacement. The vehicle has been well taken care of and is driven in upstate New York. It is rarely used for towing. It's absurd to think that a truck with such low mileage would have such a severe and expensive issue, significantly decreasing engine power, reducing the life of the engine and bringing fumes into the cab. This should be a recall issue.
