Ford recalls 600,000-plus vehicles to fix backup cameras included the 2020 F-150 but not the 2019 F-150. My vehicle is experiencing the same issues. In fact the cameras have been replaced by the dealer 7 times and they are still not working. I feel this should be covered under the same recall as the 2020S

Today while driving home from work, a wrench-shaped indicator light on the dashboard turned on. Following this, the display notified me that the front sensor and collision avoidance were no longer available. Afterwards, the truck began to shudder and jerk around while idling at the stoplight. The rate at which the truck could accelerate began to decrease every time I would accelerate from a complete stop (a stoplight for example). Shifts also seemed very rough. Whenever the transmission shifted, it felt like sitting in a chair on a concrete floor while somebody dropped dumbbells on the ground.

Vehicle shuts down. I was waiting in line of traffic for the traffic light to turn green. Motor stops, lights go out. Placed in neutral and tried to restart, would not start until after 3 - 4 minutes.

Noticed during summer 2020 months the truck when idling at stop would vibrate and tachometer would bounce. Recently during July to September the truck when stopped would idle rough then shut down completely having to put in park and restart the truck! the last time it did it I was sitting at a red light on a city street and it just shut down and I had to restart the truck. This has happened 4 times since July. I took it to two Ford dealers and neither could replicate the problem and told me they could not fix it.

I was decelerating down a hill. I was still doing about 20 mph while braking and I received an error saying 'auto startstop shift to P, then restart engine' and my engine shut off and I lost power steering and brakes and had to coast myself to somewhere as close to the side of the road as possible. Thank god this happened on a local rd and not a highway. I proceeded to shift to P and restart the vehicle 4 times until it allowed me to shift to drive and it actually engage so I could continue driving. This is the second time it has happened to me and the truck is less than a year old.
