SERVICE BRAKES
HAD A BRAKE FAILURE IN 08/2016. TOOK TO DEALER, BRAKE BOOSTER & MASTER CYLINDER REPLACED. I WAS INFORMED IT WAS COVERED UNDER RECALL. WAS TOLD VEHICLE NEEDS TO RETURN TO REPLACE MASTER CYLINDER AGAIN WHEN REMANUFACTURED PART IS DEVELOPED. TALKED TO SERVICE DEPARTMENT ON 10/25/2016 AND THY ADVISED NEW PARTS ARE IN. ATTEMPTED TO MAKE APPOINTMENT AND WAS TOLD I WASN'T UNDER RECALL (ALTHOUGH I HAVE PAPERWORK). THEY THEN ADVISED ME THAT THEY INSTALLED REMANUFACTURED CYLINDER IN AUGUST (???). I CALLED MAIN FORD HEADQUARTERS TO EXPLAIN AND I ASKED HOW THEY WOULD HAVE HAD THE PART IN AUGUST IF IT WASN'T EVEN AVAILABLE UNTIL THE 4TH QUARTER OF '16 (BY THEIR ADMISSION ON THEIR WEBSITE). REP COULDN'T ANSWER AND SAID SHE WOULD CALL DEALERSHIP. WHEN SHE RETURNED, SHE ONLY STATED, "YES, YOU HAVE THE REMANUFACTURED MASTER CYLINDER". WHEN ASKED HOW SHE COULD ASSURE ME THIS WAS ACTUALLY THE CASE, SHE COULDN'T. I'M SCARED! MY WIFE HAD ONE FAILURE & SURE DON'T WANT TO TAKE A CHANCE ON ANOTHER. IS THERE ANYWAY THAT Y'ALL COULD GET INVOLVED TO ASSURE HER THIS WAS CORRECTLY REPAIRED? I'M THINKING THAT SINCE THEY DID PUT ANOTHER MC IN THE VEHICLE, I WAS REMOVED FROM THE RECALL. I DON'T THINK I'M ASKING MUCH. PLEASE HELP! THANK YOU! *TR

VISIBILITY:SUN/MOON ROOF ASSEMBLY, VISIBILITY/WIPER
WAS DRIVING ON C-470 WHEN I HEARD A LOUD GUNSHOT NOISE. DID A QUICK ASSESSMENT OF WINDSHIELD AND VEHICLE IN MIRRORS. HEARD A CRACKLING SOUND COME FROM THE SUNROOF. PULLED BACK VISOR AND THE SUNROOF WAS COMPLETELY SPIDER CRACKED. GOT HOME LOOKED AT THE SUNROOF FROM THE ROOF AT EYE LINE AND NOTICED A BULGE COMING FROM THE INSIDE OF THE VEHICLE, LIKE TOO MUCH PRESSURE BUILT UP INSIDE THE TRUCK AND EXPLODED THROUGH THE SUNROOF. *TR

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
HAVE LOST POWER STEERING, BRAKES, AND ENGINE TWICE AT DIFFERENT INCLINES, LOW/MODERATE SPEEDS AND WHILE OR AFTER TURNING RIGHT. BOTH CAUSED BY A BLOWN FUSE (ONCE FUSE27, THEN AFTER REPAIR FUSE70). DURING THE SECOND OCCASION THIS ALMOST CAUSED A SERIOUS AND SIGNIFICANT ACCIDENT. CLEARLY THERE IS AN ELECTRICAL ISSUE AS IT HAPPENED A SECOND TIME AFTER REPAIR BY THE DEALERSHIP. LOSS OF POWER IS SUDDEN AND IN MY CASE THE VEHICLE WOULD NOT RESTART BECAUSE THE FUSE WAS BLOWN.

SERVICE BRAKES
ON THE MORNING OF JULY 18, 2016 I EXPERIENCED COMPETE AND TOTAL BRAKE FAILURE ON MY 2014 FORD F150 TRUCK. I HAD DRIVEN THE TRUCK THE NIGHT BEFORE WITH NO PROBLEMS OR WARNINGS OF ANY KIND. I GOT INTO MY TRUCK, CRANKED IT, AND PRESSED ON THE BRAKE PEDAL TO SHIFT INTO REVERSE. MY BRAKE PEDAL WENT ALL THE WAY TO THE FLOOR BOARD WITH ABSOLUTELY NO RESISTANCE. I TRIED PRESSING IT AGAIN WITH THE SAME RESULTS. JUST A FEW DAYS BEFORE THIS, I HAD RECEIVED A RECALL LETTER CONCERNING BREAKING ISSUES FROM FORD. HOWEVER, IN THIS LETTER IT SAID THAT THE ISSUE WOULD ONLY AFFECT THE FRONT BRAKES; THE REAR BRAKES WOULD STILL BE USABLE. I CAN ASSURE YOU, THIS IS NOT THE CASE. I CONSIDER MYSELF EXTREMELY BLESSED THAT I WAS NOT TRAVELING AT THE TIME OF THE OCCURRENCE. THERE IS NO DOUBT THAT HAD I BEEN DRIVING AT THE TIME OF THE FAILURE, IT COULD HAVE RESULTED IN A FATAL INCIDENT.

SERVICE BRAKES
I NOTICED THE TRUCK SEEMED TO LUNGE FORWARD EVEN THOUGH MY FOOT WAS ON THE BRAKE.AS I WAS APPROACHING A STOP SIGN. SHORTLY AFTER THAT, FORD SENT ME A RECALL ON THE BRAKES.(NOT FOR THAT PROBLEM THOUGH). I CONTACTED THE FORD DEALER. THEY INDICATED NO PARTS WERE AVAILABLE TO FIX THE PROBLEM UNTIL AT LEAST THE 4TH QUARTER BUT TO BRING IT IN IF THE BRAKE LIGHT CAME ON IN THE PANEL. I AM TRYING TO TRADE THE TRUCK IN OR RETURN IT TO FORD BECAUSE IT IS A LEASE AND THE FORD DEALER DOESN'T WANT IT BECAUSE THEY INDICATED THERE IS NO FIX FOR THE RECALL AT THIS POINT. THE DEALERSHIP OFFERED ME $6000 DOLLARS LESS THAN THE VALUE OF THE TRUCK BECAUSE IT HAS A RECALL ON IT. I DON'T FEEL I SHOULD BE PENALIZED TO RECEIVE A REDUCED AMOUNT FOR THE TRUCK BECAUSE OF THE FORD RECALL. I HAVE FILED A COMPLAINT WITH FORD ALSO. ANY HELP OR ASSISTANCE THAT CAN BE PROVIDED WOULD BE GREATLY APPRECIATED.

ENGINE
I HAVE A 2014 F-150 3.5L ECOBOOST TRUCK.... IT HAS APPROXIMATELY 72,000 MILES THAT ARE MAINLY LONG HAUL AND NOT SHORT AROUND TOWN STOP/START MILES. MY UNDERSTANDING IS THIS DOES NOT QUALIFY FOR REPAIR UNDER WARRANTY. I HAVE RECENTLY EXPERIENCED A TOTAL LOSS OF ENGINE POWER WITHOUT ANY WARNING. IF I TURN OFF THE ENGINE AND RESTART THEN IT WILL GO BACK TO FULL POWER FOR A SHORT PERIOD OF TIME AND THEN CUT OUT AGAIN. THIS IS NO FUN MAKING A RIGHT HAND TURN IN RUSH HOUR TRAFFIC IN THE CITY... VERY DANGEROUS IN FACT. THIS HAS OCCURRED WHILST DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY, DRIVING AROUND THE CITY AND SOMETIMES GOING UP A HILL. I AM NOT A VEHICLE EXPERT AND DO NOT KNOW WHAT IS THE CAUSE. I VISITED FORD AND EVEN THEY WERE NOT SURE. I WILL VISIT ANOTHER DEALER TO SEE IF I CAN GET BETTER INFORMATION. MY CONCERN IS ABOUT DRIVING ACROSS TOWN IN HEAVY TRAFFIC AND HAVING THE VEHICLE CUT OUT ON ME AGAIN.
