Consumer Description

I WAS DRIVING IN TRAFFIC ON THE 405 AND THE COLLISION AVOIDANCE SYSTEM ACTIVATED AND SLAMMED ON THE BRAKES BRINGING THE VEHICLE TO A SCREECHING HALT ON FREEWAY. I WAS NEARLY REAR ENDED. THE VEHICLE DISPLAYED "FRONT CAMERA FAULT" AND :COLLISION AVOIDANCE NO AVAILABLE" ON THE DASH FOR A FEW MINUTES. NO ERROR CODES WERE FOUND IN THE COMPUTER. I ALSO HAVE "ONE PEDAL DRIVE" FAULTS THAT CAUSE THE VEHICLE TO ROLL WHEN I REMOVE MY FOOT FROM THE ACCELERATOR. IT SHOULD STOP, BUT INTERMITTENTLY KEEPS GOING. THIS IS THE SECOND FORD LIGHTNING I'VE HAD WITH THAT PROBLEM AND MANY OTHERS. FORD BOUGHT THE FIRST ONE BACK UNDER THE CA LEMIN LAW. GALPIN FORD HAS FOUND NO CAUSE FOR THE COLLISION AVOIDANCE FAILURE AND NO CAUSE FOR THE ONE PEDAL DRIVE FAULTS. ERROR CODES ARE NOT BEING STORED IN THE COMPUTER SYSTEM. FORDS ANSWER WAS TO TRY TO GIVE ME THE VEHICLE BACK WITHOUT REPAIRS BECAUSE THEY SAY THEY CAN'T REPLICATE THE PROBLEM. AFTER THE PROBLEMS WITH THE FIRST TRUCK I PHOTOGRAPH ALL ERRORS ON DASH. DESPITE MY PICTURES THEY ARE UNABLE TO MAKE REPAIRS. I HAVE APPLIED TO GET THIS SECOND LIGHTNING BOUGH BACK UNDER THE CA LEMON LAWS AS WELL. I HAVE FOUND MANY OTHER INSTANCES OF OWNERS REPORTING THESE SAME OR SIMILAR PROBLEMS IN FORUMS.
