SERVICE BRAKES
BRAKE FLUID LEAKED FROM THE BRAKE MASTERCYLINDER INTO THE BRAKE POWER BOOSTER. ONCE THE BRAKE FLUID LEVEL IN THE MASTERCYLINDER REACHED A HIGH ENOUGH LEVEL, BRAKE FLUID WAS SUCKED THROUGH THE VACUUM LINES INTO THE INTAKE AND INTO THE ENGINE, WHERE PRESUMABLY IT FILLED UP THE CYLINDERS. THIS OCCURRED BOTH WHILE IN MOTION AND STATIONARY, I SUSPECT IT ONLY OCCURRED WHILE THE ENGINE WAS RUNNING AND A VACUUM WAS ON THE VACUUM LINES.

STEERING
TOOK MY VEHICLE TO FORD DEALERSHIP AS I WAS HAVING 3 WARNING LIGHTS COME ON & WHEN I TURNED THE WHEEL IT MADE A LOUD NOISE. THEY TOOK IT FOR A TEST DRIVE & WHEN THEY RETURNED THE STEERING LOCKED UP & ALMOST CAUSED THE VEHICLE TO HIT A BUILDING. THE STEERING LOCKED UP WHICH CAUSED YOU TO NOT BE ABLE TO STEER. IF THIS WOULD OF HAPPENED WHEN I WAS TAKING MY SON TO TOWN WE WOULD OF WRECKED THE TRUCK. THIS SHOULD BE A RECALL AS THE DEALERSHIP TOLD ME THAT MY VEHICLE IS EXTREMELY UNSAFE TO DRIVE & THEY SAID I CAN'T DRIVE IT.

POWER TRAIN
WHILE DRIVING DOWN THE HIGHWAY THE TRUCK SHIFTED FROM 5TH GEAR TO 1ST GEAR... THE WHEELS SEEMED TO HAVE LOCKED UP AS WE DID LEAVE A SKID MARK ON THE HIGHWAY. NEARLY SENT US THROUGH THE WINDSHIELD... THANK GOODNESS FOR SEAT BELTS. WRENCH SYMBOL APPEARED ON THE CONSOLE. PULLED OVER... TURNED OFF VECHICLE, TURNED BACK ON AND SHOWED IN 1ST GEAR.. STARTED DRIVING AND WOULD NOT SHIFT OUT OF FIRST GEAR AND WRENCH REAPPEARED... POWERED OFF AGAIN AND BACK ON WRENCH DISAPPEARED... SEEMED TO DRIVE NORMAL AFTER A COUPLE MILES WRENCH APPEARED AGAIN AND WE HAD NO GAUGES ON THE DASHBOARD OPERATIONAL EXCEPT RPM. DEALERSHIP PERFORMED RECALL 19S07 FOR THIS KNOWN ISSUE... ON TEST DRIVE IT WAS STILL NOT RESOLVED SO THEY SAID THEY NEEDED TO DO 19N01 BUT THAT THIS WAS ONLY ALLOWED AS A WARRANTY REPAIR UP TO 150000 MILES. I HAD 151866 WHEN BROUGHT TO THE DEALERSHIP. SO I NOW HAVE AN UNSAFE TRUCK WITH A KNOWN RECALL ISSUE THAT FORD WILL NOT REPAIR BECAUSE I HAD 1866 MILES MORE THAN THEIR WARRANTY. THEY WANT 800 FOR ME TO FIX IT MYSELF WHICH I MUST DO AND THERE IS NO GUARANTEE THAT THIS WILL FIX THE ISSUE. FORD SHOULD BE OBLIGATED TO FIX ISSUES TIED TO KNOWN SAFETY PROBLEMS WITH THE VEHICLE. WHO KNOWS NEXT TIME IT DOES IT SOMEONE COULD REAR END ME AND BE SERIOUSLY INJURED.

STRUCTURE:BODY
MY VEHICLE IS LEAKING FROM THE ROOF INSIDE MY TRUCK AND GETTING MY SEATS WET. IT'S OBVIOUSLY A WELL KNOWN PROBLEM BECAUSE I'VE SEEN OTHER 2013 FORD F-150 OWNERS COMPLAINING OF THE SAME THING. I CALLED MY FORD DEALERSHIP AND THEY ARE AWARE THAT IT'S A KNOWN PROBLEM STATING FORD USED INFERIOR PARTS ON THE TOP STRIPS THAT RUN ALONG THE TOP AND DOWN TO THE REAR WINDOW. THE DEALER SAID I'D HAVE TO PAY @ OVER $500 TO GET THIS PROBLEM REPAIRED WHERE THEY REMOVE THE ENTIRE BACK WINDOW AND PUT NEW STRIPPING ON TOP THAT USES NEW SCREW PACKAGE THAT DOESN'T BREAK DOWN AND ALLOW WATER TO ENTER. I SEE THAT A SIMILAR REPORT OF THIS PROBLEM WAS ENTERED ON THIS SITE IN 2013. IT JUST SO HAPPENS IT TOOK A LONGER TIME FOR MY PROBLEM TO OCCUR DUE TO HAVING MY VEHICLE BEING PARKED OUTSIDE MORE.
