POWER TRAIN
While leaving a parking garage the transmission violently jerked out of gears pulling te steering wheel and no longer driving the rear driveline so the vehicle could no longer accelerate up the ramp. Vehicle behind me almost rear ended me. The transmission was hunting erratically between gear as seen by the indicator gears, 1st to 2nd to 8th to 10th to 4th rapidly and began to smell significantly. The only way to pull forward off the ramp was to engage 4WD Hi. No warning lights. Dealer tried to state potentially low battery voltage but the vehicle continues to exhibit surging shifts both upshifts and down shifts.

I stopped the vehicle in the street after turning wide to back in my driveway. The vehicle lunged forward like it was being pushed. It continued forward, up the curb, paused, then was pushed (moved forward) harder up the incline and into a pine tree. Significant Damage was to the front end. At no time did I accelerate. I was not in control of the car. It threw a message about parking assist on the dash. There were children on the street and I am glad it didn’t run into anyone. Yes you have my consent to check the vehicle data. I am going to file with ford as well. Even if car is fixed I’m afraid to drive it.

UNKNOWN OR OTHER
So I was driving for an hour & it felt like my AC went out. You could hear the AC blowing but it felt like it was restricted through the air vent. I had it on 7 & it felt like I had it on 1 the air was barely coming out. You could definitely hear the air trying to blow when I raised it up to 7 but no air was getting thru the vents. Felt like it clogged up. Also the temperature of the very little air that was coming through the vent was warm. So I had to lower down the windows just to get fresh air in the cab as my family was complaining it was getting hot. All of this happening at 550 miles

FORWARD COLLISION AVOIDANCE: AUTOMATIC EMERGENCY BRAKING, SERVICE BRAKES, POWER TRAIN
While coasting to an upcoming stop downhill, on slightly graded slope, speed within 15mph or less, with brake slightly applied; the Automatic Parking Brake engaged on its own, subsequently resulting in the transmission shifting of drive modes to park automatically. The vehicle came to an instant, unexpected stop, while still maintaining a speed around 5mph on its own. The vehicle locked up mid-line-of-traffic, leaving the potential of a rear-end collision by following vehicle. No known damage to transmission or powertrain resulted. Adverse weather/road conditions did not play a factor at the time of incident. Incident has occurred multiple times prior, during similar environment & circumstance.

POWER TRAIN
Burring noise coming from front end - seems 4 wheel drive partially engages approximately 2-5 miles down the road after a cold start. Hitting the 4x4 button and transitioning to 4x4 alleviates the noise. Seems to happen during cold weather. Reading online, it looks to be an issue affecting the IEW for the 4x4.

POWER TRAIN, WHEELS, UNKNOWN OR OTHER
IWE four wheel drive system is engaging while driving the vehicle. Rough shaking in the front end of vehicle and grinding noise while driving. Ford has acknowledged there is a defect but the truck is operating normally and they are trying to fix the issue. Initially I was told it was unsafe to drive , but now that they do not know how to fix the issues they told me to just drive it until it completely breaks down. This is very unsafe. The vehicle is a 2023 F150 with 6,000 miles

SERVICE BRAKES
While driving forward the parking brake system automatically applied itself. Because of this I was nearly involved in a rear end collision. This was completely unexpected and without warning. The vehicle was in for service last week. It is now back in service and they are having trouble diagnosing the parking brake system. My vehicle is currently at the dealer and the dealer is in contact with Ford because the dealer is having trouble diagnosing the parking brake system.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, UNKNOWN OR OTHER
The climate control system will malfunction and make the cab of the truck unbearably hot, even to the point of physical discomfort at the feet of the driver. The air is so hot blowing on the drivers feet that I have to remove my feet from the pedals to cool. This is a major distraction to the driver. The dealer says this is normal. No warnings or alarm messages.
