UNKNOWN OR OTHER, VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL
When parking the vehicle at Auto Zone, at a very slow speed, the vehicle suddenly accelerated. Without the accelerator being pressed, the vehicle suddenly accelerated on its own. Notes: Vehicle has One-pedal always activated. It is a new vehicle. Only has 3k miles. I was taken once to the shop for maintenance. Malfunction components: Maybe Speed related components and safety features. The airbag did not deploy and non of all the safety features the vehicle has did not activated. The safety risk was extremely serious. The vehicle went over the concrete parking stopper, tore it off, and then crashed into a concrete column at AutoZone. If anyone had been walking in front of the vehicle, the outcome could have been catastrophic. Despite the impact, the airbags did not deploy and none of the vehicle’s safety systems activated. After the incident, I went to the ER due to pain in both hands, shoulder pain, back pain, and pain in my feet. I was evaluated for these injuries as a precaution. A police incident was done. We have a number. Because it was on private. property there is not a report, but they gave us a police incident number. No warnings, symptoms prior to the incident. It was a dry day, not rain. The incident occurred last Saturday. We tried calling the Ford dealer to have the car towed, but we were unable to reach them. Because of safety concerns, we contacted a towing company and had the vehicle towed to our home instead. We plan to call Ford today, but wanted to report the incident first

SERVICE BRAKES, BACK OVER PREVENTION: WARNINGS, FORWARD COLLISION AVOIDANCE: AUTOMATIC EMERGENCY BRAKING
While backing at low speed in a residential driveway, the vehicle struck a parked car causing significant damage. No ADAS safety systems activated: reverse automatic braking did not engage, no parking sensor warnings sounded, no audible or visual alerts occurred. The vehicle made no attempt to slow or stop despite approaching a large stationary obstacle. The vehicle has two open unrepaired recalls at the time of incident: Recall 25V488 (Electronic Brake Booster): EBB module may shut off unexpectedly during ADAS use. The EBB is integral to the electronic braking system ADAS relies on to autonomously apply brakes. If faulted, reverse automatic braking cannot engage regardless of sensor detection. Software fix was available but never applied. Ford documented 37 warranty claims and one crash before issuing this recall. Recall 25V863 (Integrated Park Module): May fail to lock into park. Remedy not yet available. The vehicle provided zero warning of degraded safety capability. No dashboard indicators or alerts that ADAS was unavailable. Multiple overlapping systems failed simultaneously suggesting cascading failure from the EBB fault or multiple independent defects. Ford SSMs 52161, 49767, and 50360 document known Lightning issues with inoperative park aid and reverse brake assist unavailability. The recall notice emphasizes brake pedal feel but does not clearly communicate that the defect can disable automatic emergency braking. Consumers may delay repair not realizing ADAS is compromised. Vehicle is available for inspection.

SERVICE BRAKES, ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
When you’re stopped and have the Auto Hold feature on, and open your door, the gear selector will automatically shift to park and engage the e-brake. Off and on, this will cause the brake system to fault and will tell you to service immediately. A couple other times it triggered randomly with just having the Auto Hold feature activated. it’s happened on and off since i got the truck new. i have a video of me trying to engage and disengage the parking brake and nothing happens. i have to start and restart the truck multiple times to fix it

FORWARD COLLISION AVOIDANCE: ADAPTIVE CRUISE CONTROL, VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL
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.

SERVICE BRAKES, ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
Parking break fault warning light service now light comes on intermittently when the parking break was set. The ford dealer I bought the truck from found a leaking rear left break line and replaced the left rear parking break motor assembly. The Warning light kept coming on intermittently when setting the parking break after this repair. I took it to my local ford dealer who said nothing was wrong. I’m now on a trip and the warning light continues to intermittently come on. Took it to another ford dealer who reconnected a wire and said if that didn’t work it needed a new ABS module. I continued on my trip and the warning light kept coming on. Stopped at another ford dealer who cleaned up some connectors. The warning light kept coming on and I took it back. Now they think it needs a new ABS module and said it is back ordered for 2 months and I’m a 1000+ miles from home.

FORWARD COLLISION AVOIDANCE: ADAPTIVE CRUISE CONTROL, UNKNOWN OR OTHER
While using the vehicle’s BlueCruise driver assistance system, the driver monitoring system generates frequent false driver-attention alerts despite normal posture and active attention to the roadway. The system often fails to recognize attentive driving unless the driver deliberately exaggerates head position or facial expression. Routine and unavoidable behaviors—including briefly touching the face, wiping the nose, or checking side-view mirrors for traffic—frequently trigger alerts, even though these actions are part of safe driving. These false positives create alert fatigue and increased cognitive load, forcing the driver to divert attention from driving to manage the monitoring system itself. The intrusiveness of the alerts becomes distracting and undermines the intended safety benefit of the system. Due to the frequency of false alerts, the driver is often compelled to disengage BlueCruise entirely. I am concerned the current driver-monitoring calibration may inadvertently increase distraction for attentive drivers and warrants review. This issue has been reported to the manufacturer and logged under Ford Product case number [XXX]. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)

FORWARD COLLISION AVOIDANCE: AUTOMATIC EMERGENCY BRAKING
This truck has had numerous messages on the dashboard stating Reverse Brake Assist Not Available See Manual. Have taken to the Dealership and was told that there was no code and the couldn’t fix as the message wasn’t displayed. They said when it came on to bring it in. Long story short when message is displayed by the time you arrive it is gone. I have done the simple things like make sure sensors are clean, doors and hood is closed and the soft clear by unhooking the battery cable for 15 minutes. This whole mess started after a dash recall in the fall of 2025.What good is this for a safety feature to prevent reverse incidents if not working properly.
