I took my 2021 Ford F-150 VIN [XXX] to a 3rd party mechanic for a TX state inspection as required by law. The mechanic told me he could not preform the inspection because my truck would not communicate with his emissions testing computer. He said this has happened many other times with other newer F-150s. As can be seen with NHTSA ID number 10209217 and Manufacturer Communication Number: SSM 50602. It appears Ford via their software and emissions test is only allowing these vehicle-??s to be serviced at Ford dealerships which is wrong.

The sound system blasted a loud, screeching sound, and I couldn't turn it down. It startled me so much that I ran a red light. It seems many similar models have this issue: https://www.f150gen14.com/forum/threads/dangerous-b-o-sound-system-issue.9254/.

I have been having exhaust fumes coming out of my dashboard ventilation. These carbon monoxide fumes that affects me and my family while driving. Ford is taking this matter very lightly and that concerns me. I'm crying out for your assistance please. The dealership are not equipped to take care of this situation.

The Cabin recirculation button turns off by it self, lets air in from outside.. ie. smoke, car and truck exhaust.. cold air. this has been going on since I owned the truck and Ford says it is designed to do that.. window anti fog design.. I will get in my truck in the morning and turn heat on to take chill off... low air speed and 2 clicks past half way on the heat and it will only stay on for 1 -5 min and turn off on its own. I drive 1 hour to work on interstate and everytime it turns off I smell exhaust from semi's and other cars around me in traffic. so I have to keep turning it on to keep from getting choked out by the smells from traffic. Ford says no way to turn off.. This is a design flaw.. I know of no other car manufacture that does this.. I have videos of it turning off..

Took the truck to local, Mac Haik Ford dealership in Georgetown, TX for repairs. Replaced the bolt and rear axle. This is a known issue in online Ford F150 forums.good thing I decided to check it when I did

Ford has issued two recalls for my vehicle. I've included the Campaign/NHTSA# for each below. 22S53/22V623 22S26/22V250 In each case I have sought to have the vehicle repaired and in each case my dealer has said that Ford does not have parts available for their service department to make the repair. I've waited a reasonable time without any update from either Ford or my dealer prior to submitting this complaint. Ford has an obligation to make recall repairs within a reasonable time of announcing the recall. Their failure to do so could place consumers in danger. Otherwise, why would they initiate the recall in the first place? Anyway, I thought this was unacceptable and felt the need to complain.

I heard a very loud screeching noise around 4K miles and took it to the dealership, they said my axle nut on the driver side of the truck was sheared off. They said it was covered under warranty and repaired the issue. 8k miles after repair it is doing the exact same thing. No check engine lights for this issue ever appeared on the dash. Ford spend about 3 weeks or longer fixing this the first time. They promised when I purchased the truck if there where any issues I would get a loaner vehicle, nothing available to loan on the first time. Now that it-€™s happened again I called to scheduled a time to repair and they say I can-€™t even get seen until January 20th. So this truck has costed me a lot of out of pocket money for rentals.

Driving the truck the transmission shifts down hard depends on the day it-€™s hard trying too get used to braking when it downshifts like it does. Then when leaving and up shifting sometimes it wants to jerk the truck and hesitates. My father owns a 2019 and his transmission is amazing. Mine is horrible. Since I bought the truck it-€™s been like this and I just don-€™t want to be stuck with a broke transmission when my warranty expires one day for it. The speed it jerks when it-€™s low speed like taking off, the down shifting is going from like 50 down. This happens all the time. I just see people with my year truck getting new transmission because their transmission already is no good.

Passenger side rear axle retention bolt sheared off in normal driving conditions (no incident). Heard a knocking sound in rear wheel, removed center cap and found the axle retention bold broken off with bolt head and washer bouncing around in the center cap. Dealer says the part has been redesigned and will be replaced under warranty. Was told vehicle is unsafe to drive.

Nothing happened. My complaint is about inactivity on performing recall # 22V263 for underbody insulators that can become detached and destroy the driveshaft which can cause the vehicle to loose control. I received the recall notification electronically over 2 weeks ago and was told a followup letter would arrive telling me parts were available and when I could schedule getting the repair done.To date I have not received any such letter.

During early morning hours and in the late evening during sunset the navigational screen goes blank for several minutes. The radio still works been nothing can be seen on the screen. If using the navigation this could create a problem because you can see where to turn.The problem has not been reported to a dealer but I have a video of the problem with date and time. This has happened several times already.

On June 17, 2022 while driving to work on highway in Nee York Stare, I put the adaptive cruise control on so I could adjust my drivers side rear view mirror. The truck suddenly lunged to the left striking a guard rail and overturned several times. Despite being a direct high speed impact to the guard rail and overturning, the steering airbag did not deploy. See police report attached. Due to this, I sustained major internal tissue damage including: a broken sternum, punctured lung bruised aorta, 4 fractures to the vertebrae in both my upper and lower spine and 4 broken ribs in my upper rib cage. I spent a total of 11 nights in the hospital including 4 nights in the ICU. I have not been cleared to return to work and instill under medical care. I understand there was a airbag/steering column recall on other F150s but I strongly suspect that the reveal needs to be expanded to mite vehicles such as mine. All the Doctors that treated me said my injuries were the direct result of the steering wheel airbag not deploying. The state trooper that reined me from my vehicle, as well as one of the witnesses both told me that my steering airbag did not deeply. I also have pictures as well.

My truck was parked in my driveway when i noticed a slight bulge like curve in my rear window. When I opened the door the rear window completely shattered. My local Ford dealership confirmed that the Ford f150's have had this problem for years. They sent pictures to Ford about covering the replacement of the window. Ford refused

This vehicle has a transmission problem relating to how it shifts gears at low speeds. This results in delayed shifts, missed gears, and sometimes a jerk and loud "clunk" when the shift occurs. This is not only distracting (the first time I literally looked back to see if I had hit something, or if something had broken off). This will likely contribute to premature wear and failure which could happen at an inopportune time.

My trucks integrated brake controller will not consistently control the electric trailer brakes. I plug in the trailer and get confirmation that it is controlling the brakes by manually testing them while rolling and at some point during the trip it stops controlling them without warning. I have tried all methods to be sure the 7 pin connection is seated properly and I am sure it is. I have a 7 pin tester and when I check the electric output at the plug it lights up the circuit (BK) for the brakes. When traveling and I realize I no longer can control the trailer brakes, I pull over and unplug the trailer, plug in the tester and when squeezing the brake controller it will not light up the circuit marked (BK). If I leave it disconnected and shutoff the truck for 15+ minutes and reconnect, it works again only to stop again at some unknown point. There is obviously a seriously dangerous issue here. I have taken it to the Ford dealer and they can't find anything wrong. When it resets you can't duplicate it until you tow for an undermined distance for it to fail again. I have searched the internet and found many people with the same issue and no one has been able to get it solved by all manner of efforts including many efforts at Ford dealers and electrical shops. This form asks for the date it occurred. It started as soon as I took delivery with 5 miles and is ongoing.

2021 F-150 Powerboost giving "Trailer brake system fault" when not in use and has never been used. Additionally getting the "Key not detected" alert when key in truck. Battery in fob has been replaced and tested to be good. These errors have no known trigger mechanisms to repeat. Just happen on their own. I am becoming increasingly concerned if these can continue to worsen over time. Dealer says they havent really seen either issue. Truck was pruchased 11/17/21 and currently has 1998.5 miles.

While towing an RV trailer, the trucks brake controller failed to send signal to trailer when brakes were applied relying on truck only to stop load. The truck recognized trailer was attached but when brake controller was squeezed message on dash was -€œNo Trailer-€ Stopped at dealer in Kerrville Tx but problem was not seen on scan tool. This issue seems to be intermittent with no warning message when it happens. Manually monitoring brake controller is the only way to determine if the trucks brake controller is functioning correctly. Consumer took the truck in to 2 different dealers with this trailer brake issue. Both dealers wanted to assume the truck loses connection with trailer. Consumer stated truck does not, the trailer brakes just stop working. Consumer stated has taken the truck to 2 different dealers with this trailer brake issue. Both dealers want to assume the truck loses connection with trailer. Consumer truck does not but trailer brakes just stop working. The attached picture shows me squeezing the brake controller while showing the brakes lights coming on on the rear camera.
