The truck has approximately 5,000 miles. When adaptive cruise control is engaged, the vehicle accelerates on its own to 85 mph whenever the posted speed limit changes, and there are no available settings to prevent this. For example, if the speed limit is 55 mph and adaptive cruise control is set to 55 mph, when the limit changes to 65 mph the truck automatically increases speed to 85 mph without driver input. Additionally, Apple CarPlay does not connect or function in the vehicle. The truck was taken to the dealership for this issue on 11/21/25 and has since been in and out of service multiple times, often remaining there for weeks at a time, for the same unresolved problems.

In November, shortly after engaging adaptive cruise control on [XXX] the truck indicated an incorrect speed limit of 45 mph and immediately started braking HARD causing a hazard on a busy roadway. I stomped on the gas trying to override the automation until I could disable the feature. This is a commonly reported issue on forums and local news reports ( [XXX] ) and does not appear to have a fix so I have not bothered to take it to the dealer.

On November 2nd, 2025 at approximately 6pm, in Houston, Texas, my 2025 Ford F-?'150 with Ford BlueCruise engaged in Hands-?'Free mode was traveling with traffic at about 70 mph on a major thoroughfare. Without driver input, the system rapidly reduced speed to about 50 mph after it appeared to misinterpret an unknown speed-?'limit change. This sudden, uncommanded deceleration created a hazardous speed differential with surrounding traffic. I swiftly took over manual control to maintain traffic flow and prevent a potential rear-?'end collision. No crash or injury occurred, but the behavior constitutes phantom braking and false speed-?'limit recognition in an Advanced Driver Assistance System feature.

My brand new truck with 3500 miles when the cruise control is set to a speed the truck will randomly accelerate un commanded. This occurs when for no reason the cruise control will select 95 MPH if you at 75 MPH. It will do this at any speed selected. This uncommanded speed can occur multiple times within minutes or can late as long as 30 minutes. Also this uncommanded speed can also occur at lower speed set in the cruise control. This can only be corrected by hitting the brake. This is especially dangerous in traffic and on curves. This has happened in both places as well as on long stretches. I almost rear ended a car in front of me in traffic as I was going 55 and when the speed changed to 95 the truck floored the accelerator with full engine power.
