NHTSA Complaint #11584144 — 2018 FORD F-150

The engine makes a popping sound, acceleration and deceleration rattles and response delay. Dealer repair was a replacement of the intake manifold/runner controls. Service advisor advised the dowels that hold the interior parts and runners come lose due to improper factory installation or defect. The popping is raw gas causing the popping. When the runners fall out the vehicle will lose power. Obvious safety defect and concern to the public. The vehicle has 30K miles, no warning light or computer error shown at the dealer, obvious concern with this. Concern with transmission delay, clunking and jerking, along with the poor running engine. The dealer said this was normal and again no warning light comes on or computer code. All repairs and concerns have been addressed with the dealer. Ford is res041920ponsible for a poorly built truck and lack of warning systems in place.
