I'm not sure what category to place this in. The under cover for the oil pan transmission is dragging. I did not hit anything or tear it lose in anyway. It seemed to get wet and just started dropping. This is made of a ''felt'' type material instead of plastic or metal. It is is a huge safety hazard. The piece dragging could cause heat and a friction fire. Or it could fall off and cause a traffic accident or damage to vehicles on the road behind. I looked on line and found this is very common in these trucks and seems to be occurring more than not. not. There is an entire forum dedicated to this. I have temporarily zip tied the cover up but it is still dropping bad. I do not think an owner should be out over $200 to fix this when it is a obviously a manufacturer defect.

My 2018 Ford F150 truck has cold start rattle from the phasers. Started occurring 1k miles after my warranty ran out. This is a well known issue with this year of Ford F150 based on the 100s of videos and articles on this topic online. There are several thousand people across many online sites stating they have the same issue. They have created a service bulletin to fix the issue and sent out letters to some and not all owners. Never received the service bulletin and they should include mine in the fix since it is an obvious issue of their trucks.

Vehicle stalls when coming to a stop after towing then will continue to stall after the engine is started back up. The temp gauge did not indicate it was overheating and no warning lights or engine codes came on. This only seems to happen while towing after we have been driving for over an hour. We are towing around 4,500 lbs so it is well under the limits of the truck.

At approximately 18:30 hours on July 27,2021. While backing from alley into my driveway, I coast into driveway since alley is on steep hill, so no gas is needed. Just incline is needed to get movement of truck into driveway. As truck was about five feet from closed garage door. Engine revved up without foot being on gas pedal. Since truck was in reverse gear, so backup camera was engaged to assist in stopping when I get close to door. The rear tires started spinning and burning rubber, my foot had been on brake pedal entire time I was coasting into driveway. I had to press hard on brake pedal to keep from accelerating into and through garage door. Engine finally stopped revving up after a few seconds. I quickly put transmission into park and shut off engine. My son was a passenger in truck and he said what the [XXX] just happened. Got out of truck and there were black tread marks on concrete driveway approximately 2 feet long in front of tires. Next morning July 28, 2021, I started truck up and it acted normal. Took son to work and drove out to Ford dealership to have them take a look at truck. They could not look at truck. Earliest they could get it in to look at it was August 13, They did ask if there were any warning lights on dash. Told them I didn-??t see any engine lights indicating a problem is occurring. I have driven truck daily since incident without any further problems. I called Ford dealership today August 12, and canceled appointment to have truck looked at. I doubt they-??d find anything, it was an intermittent issue, but it does need to be reported. I have photos of tire marks in front of tire s the next morning before I started truck back up.

Excessive Oil Consumption. August 2, 2020, low engine oil light came on and 50% loss of engine power. When I pulled over at the nearest gas station my vehicle was 6 quarts low on engine oil. October 6, 2020, only 2000 miles after an oil change by the dealership oil was 1 quart low. May 24, 2021, 7,788 miles after engine oil change by dealership, engine oil was 4 quarts low. My truck consumes 1 quart of oil every 1,750 miles. My fuel economy is poor, averaging 11.5 miles per gallon which should be and and was much better when I first purchased my new vehicle. Intermittent rattle during normal acceleration and deceleration. My engine has lost power and would turn over but not crank for up to 2 hours at a time. This appears to be a wide spread issue with owners of the F150 truck year 2018 - 2019. FORD NEEDS TO RESPOND AND FIX THIS ISSUE FOR THEIR CUSTOMERS AT NO COST TO THE CUSTOMER.

Engine has been making excessive valve train/piston/rod noise. I noticed the noise in March 2021 when towing my vacation trailer to San Diego. When idling noise is loudest below engine on drivers side. Noise increases dramatically when under load, and can be heard inside cab when driving. Motor almost sounds like a diesel engine. On April 26,2021 I took the truck to my dealer, Raceway Ford, Fontana, CA. After a road test I was given a notice from FORD stating that this is normal for this 5.0 engine. No way an engine should sound like this after 30,000 miles. This is a serious design flaw. When this engine fails I hope that we are not in the middle of the desert in 110 degree weather, going down a mountain pass, or crossing the golden gate bridge. THIS IS A SERIOUS SAFETY MATTER !!! Please force Ford to find a fix and repair these engines ASAP

I am reporting to NHTSA because the recall #17S37 should include my truck as I have the same issues and I am apprehensive to even drive my truck as the issue continues to increase in severity. See the answers to the requested questions below. 1.What component or system failed or malfunctioned, and is it available for inspection upon request" Answer -1. The cylinder heads have failed. Yes, the truck is available upon request. 2.How was your safety or the safety of others put at risk? Answer -2. Per recall 17S37. Cylinder heads machined without supply holes will result in premature engine failure. Engine Failure can cause noise, check engine light, runs rough and/or loss of motive power without warning while driving, increasing the risk of crash. 3.Has the problem been reproduced or confirmed by a dealer or independent service center? Answer -?" 3. Yes, the problem has been confirmed by the Ford dealer shop foreman upon a 1:1 test drive. The shop foreman agreed of the noise and the shudder. The shop foreman scheduled a diagnostic for the truck. 4.Has the vehicle or component been inspected by the manufacturer, police, insurance representatives or others? Answer -?" 4. Yes, the ford dealer ran multiple diagnostics over multiple visits on the truck. I was informed by the shop foreman that the cylinder heads were machined incorrectly, and new cylinder heads and camshafts were to be replaced. I proceed to file a formal complaint through Ford. Upon filing the complaint with Ford and through numerous calls almost daily I still can-??t receive any response/feedback from the complaint line. I can provide the complaint number upon request. 5.Were there any warning lamps, messages, or other symptoms of the problem prior to the failure, and when did they first appear" Answer -5. There were no warning lamps. However, I heard loud clicking, horrible gas mileage, and loss of power for many months before the dealer determine the issue failed cylinder heads.

After a long period of towing (approximately 4000# for 2+ hours)I stopped for gas. On restart of the engine, it had a very rough idle and there was a warning light for the auto start/stop system. It died and would not run for more than 5 seconds. To get it to run I had to keep it in neutral and rev the engine to approximately 2500rpm. It did not repeat the issue for the remainder of the trip (another 2+ hours of towing). This situation was in a gas station but could have been much worse if it was on a public road.

Driving about 30mph down a rural street and I started to lightly apply brakes as I was coming to a corner. The truck lost all power and the engine shut off. No power steering nor power brakes. A message appeared in the cluster display saying ' autostart shift to P and restart engine'. I had to pull the truck over to a side street narrowly missing a semi truck that was coming down the street(because it was difficult to turn and stop the vehicle since the power assist was no longer working). I had to completely stop the truck, place shifter into park position and restart it. It worked fine after this. The vehicle had been started about 3 minutes prior to the event. It was 54 degrees and engine had not completely warmed up yet.

Truck will stall while towing when coming to a stop at exit. Will not restart easily. Put truck in park, crank till starts, rev engine and shift into drive and keep rpms up to drive away. Will happen again after stopping for gas. While towing, I will fuel at the half tank level. It happens a lot on hot days. Usually after about 2 hours + of driving. No codes thrown at any time. Dealer can not find issue. This has happened for 2 years.

I purchased it brand new in October 2018, doors would randomly fly open when cornering. I brought it in there was a recall it was fixed. Then when it is below 30 degrees my rear sensor drivers side would show a steady red and beep when there was no danger. The dealer told me that there is most likely moisture in the sensor but would not replace it. Then at 41,000 miles my engine blew a rod. They told me I was not changing oil frequently enough. I change my own oil. I provided receipts for oil but they would not warranty it, I paid $15,000 out of pocket to have a new engine installed. I called Ford corporate and after four months of investigating they had the dealer refund my money. Then at 43,000 miles I was on vacation and the sunroof would not close. I brought it to a local dealer who said there might be something in the track but they would need the truck for 4 days and I was leaving the next day. I brought it to my local dealer upon return and they charged me $4,300 to replace the entire panoramic roof rails and chassis. Most recently my 10 speed transmission was shifting very hard and in the weeks following that a check engine light came on. I called another local dealer because I had lost all confidence in the dealer I purchased the truck new from. They told me that the wiring harness for the transmission was not properly secured and chafing caused it to run through and cause false and intermittent signals. They told me because it was negligence on the dealer who replaced the engine. I would have to go after them for the $800 fix. The same dealer who replaced the harness called me later that week while waiting for the part, told me that it was now the trans valve core. They replaced it and it is has not changed anything. They are currently waiting on direction from Ford. I have been in a loaner or rental for well over 90 days cummulativley. Unnacceptable!
