Cover for transmission/exhaust/engine on underside of vehicle tears at mount pint and hangs down and could completly tear away causing potential vehicle damge or damage to other vehicles on road. Problem is noted on internet forums as Ford's saggy diaper problem. Cover is made of a non durable foam-fabric material and is mounted by 4 screws and tears away by mount points and hangs down. This is 2nd time happening on truck, first time was replaced under warranty. Picutre is taken after I pushed it back into place but is still torn by mounting bolt and hangs down when driving. I ordered a replacement from Amazon for $99.99 and will attempt to repair myself.

The driver's side rear shock mounting bracket weld broke. This creates a suspension and safety problem as the rear bracket and shock are moving and could interfere with the wheel/axle. The problem was confirmed by a dealer and independent service center. An engineer from Ford Motor Co. inspected the failure. There were no warning or other symptoms of the problem other than a squeaking noise while driving.

Ear-splitting static-like noise upon starting the truck. Followed by loud static that would persist even when audio was turned off. Extremely distracting while driving. Took to dealer who said nothing to be done until Ford figures out a fix. Told me to keep checking back. No warning lamps or messages. I wish Ford to put a higher priority on fixing this issue. 2022 F150.

Engine shut down while traveling down a mountain with a 4.8% grade at 50 mph; the transmission was in 3rd gear to contain the speed with no pressure on the brakes. There was an initial chime as when the vehicle is first turned ON, followed by the wipers traveling halfway up the windshield, all screens went completely dark as if the vehicles key had also been turned OFF. Brakes were initially soft and then on subsequent push came back. Vehicle went through it's normal power up cycle and then engine restarted as I was still traveling at a good speed down the mountain. The engine has shut off on it's own before with all screens going dark while sitting at stop lights. To get it restarted I had to put the vehicle in park, press the brake and push the start button. I assumed this issue was with the auto start/stop feature and now always drive with it selected off. I've never had this issue with it off. This was the first time the issue happened while the truck was in gear and moving. The auto Start/Stop feature was ON. For previous issues I've had the Ford dealership check it and no error codes or issues were found.

I have confirmed that my passenger side rear axle bolt has sheared off and I am concerned about the safety of driving my truck. I need a remedy, I have contacted Asheville, NC Ford dealership, they said they would talk to a manager and get back to me. I am concerned about my safety with continued use of my new truck. I need Ford to take this matter seriously.

A/C and hvac system does not work properly. On lowest setting you have somewhat cool air and once you turn dial to 60 degrees it-??s heat. This is unsafe because I can not regulate the temperature in vehicle correctly whatsoever and trying to defrost windows is also a nightmare. The air conditioning is also not even cold enough on its lowest setting. Multiple people are having same issues with 2022-2023 f150s

Sometimes having to pull over to side of the road because I can-??t gain speed and traffic is coming quickly. Problem lasts 30 seconds or more before it kicks in.

My truck has BlueCruise technology. I have noted that the technology can be dangerous and drive me off the road, particularly in an area of an Interstate I drive often. Each time I go through that area, it will drive me off the road if I don't catch it. Always in the same place and in the same way.

The display screen went black. Without it there is no back up camera ( and many other features). This is a king cab long bed. Very dangerous to drive without these important safety features working properly. The dealer says it is a -??common problem-??. It is a $1500 repair if it were not still under warranty.

We have been stranded twice for the recall issued in late January 2024, for the rear axle. The truck is currently at the 5th dealership since January2024. The truck is not driveable and Ford still does not have a way to fix the issue. We are having the axle replaced for the second time by a Ford dealership, with no assurance that they have determined how to solve the problem. We picked the truck up from the last axle repair on 2-21-24. We had a rear wheel sensor issue on 3-6-24, after driving less than 1000 miles. On 3-28-24, the axle defect occurred again. The truck was towed again. The Ford website says they do not yet have a solution, yet their certified mechanics continue to -??fix-?? the issue.

The climate control system will malfunction and make the cab of the truck unbearably hot, even to the point of physical discomfort at the feet of the driver. The air is so hot blowing on the drivers feet that I have to remove my feet from the pedals to cool. This is a major distraction to the driver. The dealer says this is normal. No warnings or alarm messages.

Recently completed the safety recall for my 2022 F150 axle bolt replacement. The dealer informed me that this is a "repair" and not a solution to why the axle bolt broke leading to replacement of both the left and right axle shafts. My dealer service manager told me Ford does not have a permanent "fix" to the axle bolt problem and will keep my recall service ticket open as this bolt may break again. I am concerned about my safety driving this truck now. Please assist with my issue and others who are experiencing this same problem.

While driving down the highway, my 2022 Ford F-150 Tremor randomly caught on fire. I was driving down the highway and was flagged down by other drivers to let me know the bottom of the truck was on fire. I pulled over and luckily someone had a fire extinguisher and we were able to get the fire under control. The fire department was also called and they also helped put out the fire after their arrival. The truck has always been serviced at a Ford dealer and had gone in for an oil change less than 350 miles prior to the truck catching fire.

Speakers (B&O) - I turned on the vehicle from a cold start and I began to hear what I thought was rats invading the rear interior of the vehicle, I heard a loud crunching noise. I turned the stereo down and it was not as pronounced. I began to drive and the sound continued loud cracking and soft at times coming from the front and rear speakers. It was annoying and very loud popping at times. It did not stop when I turned the radio down but it did stop when I got to my destination 10 minutes later. The issue has not reoccurred since but I feel like the rear speakers are not as loud as they once were. I did. It feel my safety was in jeopardy but the sounds was annoyingly loud. No warning lights came on and the Ford app stated there were no problems. I have not yet brought the vehicle I got the dealer. I will be scheduling in the coming days.

I placed groceries in my front trunk -??Frunk-?? and they shifted while trying to leave. Once shifted they hit the emergency release button inside the frunk which opened the frunk hood unexpectedly. These should be covered or less accessible inside the frunk.

Upon starting my pickup after work a loud static sounding noise was heard coming from the speakers in the rear doors and in the A pillars of the vehicle. I was unable to get the noise to stop even if the radio was turned off. I had no control of the volume coming out of the speakers and it seemed that it was as loud as they could go. The noise was not always constant, sometimes quieting down for 10 to 15 seconds at a time. However, I have a half hour drive to get home and this sound was continuous for the entire drive. The noise was loud enough that I feel hearing protection would be required to operate the vehicle. I drove the vehicle to the dealership where I had purchased it and made an appointment to have the issue resolved.
