ENGINE, WHEELS, UNKNOWN OR OTHER
SADLY, WE FEEL WE HAVE PURCHASED A LEMON OCCASIONALLY ENGINE OR TRANSMISSION SQUEALS/GRINDS, IF ACCELERATE TOO QUICKLY/POWER UP.,AND NOW, ON COLD DAYS [TEMPS LOW 40S & UNDER] HEAR RUBBING/GRINDING WHIRRING AT LEFT FRONT TIRE? GETS LOUDER WHEN DEPRESS BRAKE, AND CAN FEEL IN BRAKE PEDAL. SOUND OCCURS DURING SLOW FORWARD SPEED 2-40 MPH, ON GRAVEL DRIVEWAY OR PAVED ROAD. SCHEDULED SERVICE TODAY FOR NOISE; THEY WERE MORE INTERESTED IN FIXING RECALL ITEM [LOCKS - RPR TIME 3+HRS], IF THEY HAD PARTS IN STOCK. RECALL SRVC COMPLETED [UNDER 1 HR], AND "NO NOISE WAS HEARD." I REQUESTED FURTHER LOOK FOR CAUSE OF NOISE, SERVICE ADVISOR SAID QUICK LANE WOULD CHECK SUSPENSION?. 2 HRS LATER, NOTHING SEEN, NOTHING HEARD, NOTHING REPAIRED. AS I PULLED AWAY FROM DEALERSHIP, HAVING SIGNED OFF ON SERVICE, THE TRUCK IMMEDIATELY BEGAN MAKING THE NOISE [FUNNY SERV ADVSR DIDN'T HEAR WHEN HE BROUGHT TRUCK AROUND?]. I DROVE LESS THAN 1/10 MILE BACK TO DEALERSHIP, TOOK THE SERVICE ADVISOR FOR RIDE; AT WHICH POINT HE ACKNOWLEDGED HE HEARD NOISE, BUT TRIED TO ASSURE ME IT'S A 'TIRE ISSUE.' MY HUSBAND AND I BELIEVE OTHERWISE - THIS IS NOT TIRE NOISE, THE NOISE NEVER CRESCENDOS OR CHANGES PITCH WITH INCREASE OR DECREASE SPEED, ON GRAVEL OR ASPHALT, AND WE HAVE NEVER FELT 'TIRE NOISE' IN BRAKE PEDAL. THIS NOISE/FRICTION MERELY CEASES AFTER YOU'VE DRIVEN A FEW MINUTES [FOR NOW]. SERVICE ADVISOR ASSURED ME I WAS NOT DOING ANY FURTHER DAMAGE TO TRUCK, CONTINUING TO DRIVE IT WITHOUT RESOLUTION TO THE PROBLEM. I ASKED HIM IF I NEEDED NEW TIRES, HE SAID INDEED NOT, MINE ARE IN GREAT SHAPE [ORIGINAL TIRES] WITH 63,000 MILES ON THEM [BUT IT'S A TIRE ISSUE?]. SOMETHING'S UP [SIMILAR CONCERNS HAVE BEEN RAISED IN FORUMS ON THE INTERNET- ALONG WITH DEALER DISMISSAL/FAILURE TO RESOLVE. WE WANT OUR TRUCK REPAIRED [RESOLUTION OF THESE MECHANICAL FAILURES] WHILE IT'S UNDER WARRANTY, OR WE WANT A NEW VEHICLE.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
MY WIFE WAS DRIVING OUR 2015 F150 ON A LOCAL STREET AND WANTED TO TURN OFF THE RADIO SO SHE COULD SPEAK WITH ME. SHE ACCIDENTALLY HIT THE START/STOP BUTTON AND THE ENGINE SHUT COMPLETELY OFF. WE WERE DOING 35 MPH AT THE TIME AND THE TRUCK WAS IN "DRIVE." WE MANAGED TO WRESTLE THE TRUCK TO A STOP, PUT IT IN PARK AND RESTART WITH NO PROBLEM. VEHICLE WAS IN MOTION ON A CITY STREET. I TESTED IT LATER IN OUR DRIVEWAY AND THE SAME ISSUE OCCURRED. I CANNOT BELIEVE THAT IN A "PUSH BUTTON START/STOP" YOU SHOULD EVER BE ABLE TO SHUT THE VEHICLE OFF WHILE IN MOTION AND IN DRIVE OR REVERSE. I CONTACTED THE FORD DEALERSHIP MAINTENANCE AND THEY TOLD ME THAT WAS "NORMAL."

ALL, I HAVE A RECALL ON DOOR LATCHES, BUT A CAUSE MAYBE WATER GETTING IN THE DOORS, THEN FREEZING. YOU TRY TO OPEN AND BENDING ON RODS OCCUR. I HAVE APPROX 2 GALLONS OF WATER IN DOOR, AND FORD SAYS CLEAN OUT DRAIN...WHEN IS A DOOR SUPPOSED TO GET SOAKED AND HOLD WATER INSIDE? THIS CAN CAUSE LOTS OF PROBLEMS IN FUTURE. LOOK AT YOU TUBE VIDEOS 1000 HAVING THE PROBLEM. SO BAD IT'S GOING UNDER THE FLOOR. IN THE WORLD OF FLOODING A VEHICLE AND TOTALING DOES THIS BECOME THE ISSUE? IM AFRAID TO LOOK UNDER MY FLOOR, BECAUSE I WILL BECOME VERY UNPROFESSIONAL. I'M A LIFE LONG FORD OWNER AND LOOKING FOR GUIDANCE PLEASE.. I CALLED CORPERATE FORD FROM 1PM TO 215 PM ON 1/12/18 AND GET A RECORDING THEY CAN'T TAKE CALL GO TO FORD OWNER SITE AND HANG UP. IT'S THE 800 NUMBER EVERYONE CALLS. WHY IM HERE.. WATER GETS IN DOOR WHEN RAINING.

FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
I'VE HAD MY TRUCK FOR JUST UNDER 2 YEARS AND 42,000 AND THE FUEL PUMP, RELAY AND MODULAR WENT OUT. FORD IS NOT COVERING THIS UNDER WARRANTY. ONE OF THESE ITEMS IS ON BACK ORDER. SO I FEEL THAT THIS MAYBE A FAULTY PART. IS THERE ANYTHING YOU CAN DO TO LOOK INTO THIS. IT IS A MAJOR SAFETY ISSUE. MY CAR JUST STALLED IN A PARKING LOT. WHAT IF I WAS ON A HIGHWAY I COULD HAVE GOTTEN REAR ENDED AND KILLED. PLEASE HOLD FORD RESPONSIBLE FOR THIS ISSUE. I ALSO DONT WANT TO BE HELD RESPONSIBLE FOR PAYING FOR THIS EITHER.
