The heat exchanger on my truck is faulty per the serve department at Balise Ford of Wilbraham. I had a check engine light coming on intermittently starting in October of 2022. In late December, the check engine came on steady. I made an appointment with Balise to have it checked out as well as to have other recall issues resolved. They inspected the truck and found the heat exchanger was faulty and would have to be replaced. They ordered the part. In April, the part finally came in and I brought the truck in to get it sorted out. A couple days later when I went to pick up the truck, I found out that the wrong part had come in and that the repair would have to be done when the proper part came in. They told me at the time that it could take a month or so to arrive. It's been 2 months since that time and the part still isn't available and I'm told that Ford is planning on shipping 72 units nationwide around June 30th. It doesn't appear that I'm high enough on the list to get one of these parts when they become available. This is now over 6 months I've been waiting for the part. The issues are 2 fold, 1st, I don't know if any sort of damage is being done to the engine due to this issue. There is something overheating in the system. I drive 65 miles to work each way and some days I have to pull over 3 and 4 times to let the heat exchanger cool down. The engine temperature shows as normal, but I get an alert on my dash that tells me that the engine is going into low power mode due to overheating and it's not possible to maintain highway speeds and creates a situation where I need to get over to side of the road quickly since I can't maintain pace. I never know when this will happen. The second issue is that I live in Massachusetts, my truck has to pass a safety inspection. It won't pass with a check engine light on. Once rejected, I have 50 days to get it repaired. After that time, I legally cannot drive the vehicle.

This past week, I was sitting at a red light with my foot on the brake (not the gas) and all of sudden, my truck slammed into gear hard enough that I thought I was rear ended. I actually had to look to see if a car did hit me. This happened to me twice this week. Also, several times this week, I was just letting go of the brake and the car slammed into gear, jolting the car as well. just letting go of the brake, the car jolted as well without pressing on the gas. It wasn-??t a smooth transition from letting go of the brake to pressing on the gas.

After purchasing the truck new I drove it for four days and it started to leak coolant from under the middle of the truck. The truck had less then 200 miles on it and it already needed service. Once I looked up 2022 Ford F-150 Power Boost coolant leak I found out there are a lot of people experiencing the same issues. I did not know these trucks were having problems otherwise I would not have purchased this truck. If I would have not realized the coolant was leaking the truck would have overheated. After taking it to the dealer they said that exhaust pipe extension was bad and leaking. They informed me that limited parts were available and there was only three in Texas. The Ford dealer ordered the parts 6/30/22 and they still have not shipped as of today 7/7/22. They don-??t seem to have any urgency to repair my brand new truck. I have heard some people waiting 10 weeks or more for parts which is a ridiculous for a brand new truck. I feel like there should be a recall on this particular truck if it-??s such a common problem. I am lucky that I didn-??t attempt to take this truck on a family vacation because we would have been stuck somewhere.

Truck check engine light came on and started to blink. The truck would shake when trying to accelerate. Pulled over, turned truck off and the light went off. When started back up it was gone. A few days later the truck did the same thing, but the light did not go off. It remained on, when accelerating the truck began to shake. When I took to the dealer, they mentioned they this truck had a check engine light on when they received, they replaced the ignition coils (under warranty) before purchasing. It-??s believed the coils may have gone again. The truck is currently at the dealers getting repaired. For a brand new truck, the coils have already needed to be replaced by dealer.
