mY TRUCK HAS TWO ISSUES . BACK UP CAMERA IS FAULTY AND THE DEALER REFUSED TO REPAIR. iT WAS GOING ON AND OFF AT TIMES WHICH IS A PROBLEM WHEN YOU ARE TRYING TO BACK UP AND NOT HAVE AN ACCIDENT. THE TRUCK BRAKE PEDAL GOT STUCK AND IT WAS CAUSING MY TRUCK TO REV UP AND DOWN I WAS ABLE TO GET IT HOME AND IT COST ME THOUSANDS TO FIX AT THE DEALER. RED MCCOMBS DEALERSHIP ON I 10 IN SA TEXAS IS WHERE I GO THEY DONT WANT TO FIX ANYTHING ON A RECALL AND YOU HAVE TO PAY EACH TIME AND THEN THEY DONT FIX. I COULD HAVE HAD A SERIOUS ACCIDENT EACH TIME BUT I FEEL BLESSED THAT I DIDNT
Ford F150 1FTEW1CPXFFC58647, caught fire while parked and unoccupied. PRINCETON, TX Fire Dept was not able to identify cause and origin of ignition / fire. Vehicle is available for inspection. Vehicle caught firer while we where asleep. Vehicle was looked at by fire dept and origin of fire was undetermined.
While parked and shut off at a gas station in Lakeside, CA, my 2015 Ford F‑150 XLT spontaneously caught fire under the hood. The fire appeared to originate in the fuse box area, specifically where the fuel pump relay is integrated. The incident posed significant risk, occurring near a fuel pump while my child was in the vehicle. A gas station employee assisted with extinguishing the fire. The cause is believed to be an electrical short. There were no modifications or recent repairs.
It's the same issue as Recall Notice 22S02/NHTSA Recall 22v011. The replacement part is MR3Z-7583-A 1X ($2-$5 part with 30 second install), but they do not show it under parts for my truck, they would prefer to sell me the whole brake pedal assembly ($50+ part and labor probably diagnosis charge in addition to part replacement). The part becomes brittle and breaks. This caused dead battery, 5 hours from home, due to lights staying on, allowed me to start and put truck into gear without touching the brake, lost acceleration between 45 & 50 mph, cruise control would not turn on and message presents that hill assist is not available.
Fuel inlet light on
What component or system failed or malfunctioned, and is it available for inspection upon request? Transmission lead frame - error P072 - traveling on the interstate at 65mph and transmission downshifted in 1st gear nearly causing the car behind me to rear-end me. Lucky i wasnt killed or serioiusly hurt. How was your safety or the safety of others put at risk? yes Has the problem been reproduced or confirmed by a dealer or independent service center? yes Has the vehicle or component been inspected by the manufacturer, police, insurance representatives or others?yes Were there any warning lamps, messages or other symptoms of the problem prior to the failure, and when did they first appear? no
STARTED TRUCK AND DROVE ABOUT 1/4 MILE WHEN IT LOST ALL POWER AND NUMEROUS MESSAGES STARTED FLASHING ON THE SCREEN. TRUCK HAD NO POWER AND I HAD TO PULL TO THE SIDE OF THE BLVD TO LET OTHER TRAFFIC PASS. SHUT ENGINE OFF AND RESTARTED. STARTED OKSY BUT RETURNED HOME. LEARNED FROM MY MECHANIC 180 MILES AWAY THAT IT IS THE THROTTLE BODY, A COMMON PROBLEM TO WHICH THERE IS NO RECALL BUT POSSIBLY AND EXTENDED WARRANTY. TRUCK HAS 49,253 MILES ON IT.
Throttle body failure approx every 45,000 miles. Bought F-150 new, now driven it approx 135,000 miles. Failure occurs when driving a various speeds, incl 75 mph. Engine shuts down, complete loss of power. DANGEROUS situation; safety at risk! Unexpected & random loss of power - w/ passengers aboard - in various traffic situations. After engine shuts down, restarts, then randomly shuts down until a new throttle body is installed. First throttle body failure repaired (=throttle body replaced) @ Ford Dealership in Price, UT. 2nd failure repaired @ Ford dealership in Hamilton, MT. Both covered by extended warranty. 3rd failure repaired [XXX] @ Hamilton, MT @ $324.55 personal expense. Check engine light warning occurs. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)
Chech engine light keeps coming on. Dealer said it was an evap canister issue, I told them warning had come on prior for check fuel fill cap. (Capless). Said they needed to replace purge cylinoid. So as I'm paying $500 for the repair, I'm told this might not fix the issue. What? Started with small evap leak. And fuel door codes. That only came on at 1/4 tank used. Now it's a large leak that comes on every time I start the engine. And I got the check fuel fill door warning again. I've done every trick listed on forums to clean and lubricate the fuel fill door, it did help for a while but as stated above problem is now much worse. Dealer should know how to fix this issue once and for all. Forums note that this is a common problem with no quick solution.
The throttle body will randomly get stuck either shut or open and when this happens the truck goes into a “limp” mode that makes the truck lose all power. There is no warning of when it will happen or to get your vehicle checked. If this were to happen pulling into traffic it could cause a serious wreck since you cannot get the truck to accelerate in any way. This problem has been reproduced numerous times.
My 2015 3.5l ecoboost had the Exhaust manifolds replaced back in 2018 when my truck had 51,909 miles on it and now at 90,000 miles the new manifolds warped and snapped off a stud bolt to which the American Fork Utah Ford Dealership said that since it was over a year ago even though it was a known issue that was covered under warranty I will have to pay out of pocket over $2,000 per manifold... this is a known issue with the manifold warping and causing exhaust leaks when the stud bolts snap off. Ford needs to recall this design flaw and pay for the fix.
at 63000 miles in June 2021, randomly while driving, it presented warning "Hill Start Assist unavailable" and other traction control warnings,, throttle goes to idle in traffic, vehicle coasts and dies. Key off & on restarts it. Code P2112. Ford dealer replaced throttle body motor under extended warranty on June 3, 2021. MotorCraft Part has 2 year warranty. On June 17, 2023 (14 days out of part warranty), at 93,000 miles truck does identical behavior. Starts & runs fine, presents warning with random frequency (4 times this morning) at various speeds from 30 mph up to 75 mph in freeway traffic. Throttle goes to idle, truck coasts at 3-5 mph until ignition key recycled. happened this morning at 65 mph on freeway in construction zone with no safety shoulders. VERY dangerous!!!
While driving with my family the truck gave several error messages and a check engine light. I pulled over immediately because the truck lost power and the stability control started shaking violently. I was able to safely maneuver out of traffic, but I cannot imagine what would have happened if I was on a busy highway instead of a small side street. Apparently this is an issue that has been fairly common with Ford from what I have seen online. The vehicle is at the mechanic now for repairs. He has determined that the Throttle body needs to be replaced.
My 2015 Ford F150 has 108K miles. While driving on 2/21/23, the engine started missing, several engine warning light began illuminating. I was able to pull to the shoulder and stop the engine which was missing badly. After allowing the engine to completely stop and turning the ignition off, I allowed it to settle for a moment, then I restarted the engine. I placed it in gear and attempted to drive again, but the same missing and instrument cluster faults recurred. At this point, I had it towed to Loveland Ford, in Loveland Colorado. After evaluation, I was notified the Throttle Body had failed which also caused the instrument cluster faults. Upon reading about the Throttle Body, one of the articles indicated this has been and issue for Ford F150 years 2014 -2016 produced in Dearborn and Kansas, but that Ford had voluntarily repaired vehicles with issues via extended warranty...
Failing Exhaust manifold and studs
Throttle Actuator control system error (Hill Start Assist Not Available/Service AdvanceTrac). Vehicle lost accelerator power at highway speed in traffic. Traveling at highway speed without the ability to accelerate resulted is difficulty exiting to the shoulder when vehicle lost acceleration. Computer code error P2112 was later diagnosed with subsequent check engine light. This is a known problem. As such, Ford had issued a temporary Service Bulletin 16B32B for this issue on various models. However this narrow window for repair is not adequate for the issue at hand.
The fuel economy for my truck is not working at the best I’ve have gone from medium gas mileage to poor (at its best) 18-20 mpg - 10 or less
Unknown: On 1/2/2021 at approximately 11:30pm, we were awakened by neighbors to warn us that our home was on fire. Neighbors witnesses an explosion from our truck, that blew up most of the Ford F-150 and cause major damage to my van next to it. The fire department has investigated the explosion and listed cause of fire to Be electrical issues from the Ford F-150. Thankfully no lives were lost, but would like to see that This be investigated to avoid loss of life as a preventative measure.
Went into 'limp mode'. Advance track, hill descent warnings. Wouldn't throttle. stopped going downhill. Known Throttle Block problem.
THE FOLLOWING HAS HAPPENED MULTIPLE TIMES. I AM DRIVING IN TOP GEAR (5TH OR 6TH) AT APPROXIMATELY 55 MPH. I ATTEMPT TO PASS SOMEONE AND SUDDENLY LOSE ACCELERATION AS I PRESS THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL. THE TRANSMISSION SEEMS TO GO LIMP. AFTER A FEW SECONDS MY ACCELERATION RETURNS.
THE CAPLESS FUEL CAP FLAP IS ALLOWING AIR INTO THE TSNK CSUSING THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT TO COME ON. I KNOW NUMEROUS FORD VECHICLES HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM. I FEEL FORD SHOULD RECALL THESE PROBLEMS .
I HAVE A2015 F 150 WITH 47,500 MILES. I WAS DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY WHEN THE ENGINE JUST STOPPED. I WAS ABLE TO GET TO THE SHOULDER WITHOUT GETTING HIT. WHEN I TRIED TO START THE TRUCK IT WOULD CRANK BUT WOULDN'T START. I ENDED UP CALLING MY MECHANIC HE TRIED TO JUMP IT DIDN'T START. HE TOWED THE TRUCK TO THE SHOP, HE ENDED UP CHANGING THE FUEL PUMP AND FUEL PUMP MODULE. I LOOKED UP THE PROBLEM ON THE INTERNET AND FOUND MANY OTHER FORD TRUCK OWNERS HAD THE SAME PROBLEM. I CONTACTED FORD THEY SAID THERE IS NOTHING THEY CAN DO. MY MECHANIC SAID THE PUMP SHOULD NOT GO BAD WITH THE MILEAGE MY TRUCK HAD. WHAT HAPPENED COULD HAVE LEAD TO AN ACCIDENT.
TRUCK FAULT CODE FLASHES AND TRUCK SHUTS DOWN INTO SAFE MODE. THREE TIMES IT OCCURRED WHILE DRIVING ON FREEWAY AT 70 MPH AND THE FOURTH TIME IT HAPPENED IN AN A SIDE ROAD DOING 35 MPH. EVERY TIME THE SAME THING HAPPENED, THE TRUCK SHUT DOWN IN SAFE MODE SHOWING FAULT CODES. I WOULD STOP, IT WOULD IDLE VERY ROUGH, I WAS NOT ABLE TO MOVE IT AS IT WOULD NOT REV OR LET ME INCREASE RPM. I WOULD HAVE TO SHUT OFF TRUCK, TURN IT BACK ON, IT WOULD RESET AND DRIVE LIKE NORMAL. TOOK TO COURTESY FORD FOUR TIMES TO DIAGNOSE AND THEY COULD NOT FIND ANYTHING, I BOUGHT A CODE READY AND THE TRUCK WENT INTO FAULT CODE AND SAFETY MODE AGAIN, THE CODE READ P2112. FORD FOUND TSB 16-0139 APPLIED AND REPLACED THROTTLE BODY AND CHARGED ME $496.95 FOR REPAIR. 2015 FORD F150 WITH 58K MILES.
THE VEHICLE WENT INTO "LIMP MODE"
VEHICLE STALLED WHILE DRIVING AT LOW SPEED. DEALER FOUND FUEL PUMP SENDING UNIT AND MODULE HAD FAILED AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED.
P0316,P0300 AND U0140-00 CODES POPPED UP.
MY WIFE WAS DRIVING VEHICLE AND DASH STARTED FLASHING "HILL START ASSIST NOT AVAILABLE", "SERVICE ADVANCED TRAC" AND THE WRENCH ICON STARTED DISPLAYING ON CONSOLE. VEHICLE VIBRATED HEAVILY SLOWED DOWN IN A "CRIPPLE" MODE NO MATTER HOW HARD GAS PEDAL WAS PRESSED. SHE PULLED OVER, TURNED THE IGNITION OFF AND WAITED 5+ MINUTES BEFORE RESTARTING. IT RE-STARTED WITH ENGINE LIGHT LIT. IN ORDER TO GET IT TO DEALER, SHE HAD TO DRIVE APPROXIMATELY 15 MILES. VEHICLE DROVE OK FOR A BIT AND THEN EXHIBITED SIMILAR BEHAVIOR 4 MORE TIMES, INCLUDING ONCE GOING UP THE CONEJO GRADE BETWEEN CAMARILLO AND NEWBURY PARK WHERE A BIG RIG HAD TO TAKE EVASIVE ACTION TO AVOID HITTING HER WHEN THE FORD F150 SUDDENLY AND UNCONTROLLABLY SLOWED DOWN. HAD THE SEMI DRIVING NOT BEEN PAYING ATTENTION, HE COULD HAVE EASILY HIT HER. FORD DEALER DIAGNOSED AS BAD THROTTLE BODY ON 11/2/2020 SAME VEHICLE HAD EXHIBITED...
WHILE TRAVELING ON THE HIGHWAY AT 70MPH, MY VEHICLE WENT LIMP, ABRUPTLY SHOOK AS I PULLED OVER TO THE SHOULDER TO AVOID A COLLISION. MY INDICATOR LIGHTS LIT UP LIKE A CHRISTMAS TREE..."HILL ASSIST", "SERVICE ADVANCETRAK" " THE "WRENCH" ADN MY CHECK ENGINE LIGHT REMAINED ON. TERRIFIED, I GOT STOPPED, TOOK THE KEYS OUT AND HAD IT TOWED TO THE NEAREST DEALER. THEIR DIAGNOSIS WAS THAT IT WAS A THROTTLE BODY FAILURE. MY SERVICE MANAGER REQUESTED THAT I CALL FORD CUSTOMER CARE. I DID THAT IMMEDIATELY FOLLOWING THE DIAGNOSIS WITH MY REPAIR BEING ABOVE $650. AFTER A WEEK OF RESEARCH, FORD CAME BACK AND STATED THAT THEY WOULD NOT HELP ME OUT AT ALL. THERE ARE RECALLS FOR THE SPECIFIC PROBLEM INCLUDING AN EXTENDED WARRANTY FOR 10 YEARS AND 150,000 MILES, HOWEVER I WAS TOLD THAT I COULD NOT RECEIVE ANY HELP FOR THE SAME PART. I EXPERIENCED A PREKNOW...
TRUCK ENGINE GOES TO ROUGH IDLE WHILE DRIVING, HAVE TO SHUT ENGINE OFF, RESTART. NEVER KNOW WHEN THIS MIGHT HAPPEN OR AT WHAT SPEED. LOCAL FORD DEALER UNABLE TO FIND PROBLEM.HAS HAPPENED SEVERAL TIMES
I OWN A 2015 FORD F150. I WAS DRIVING AT 60 MPH, THE VEHICLE ABRUPTLY DECELERATED. THE WRENCH AND LIMP MODE WARNING LIGHTS ILLUMINATED WHILE THE FAILURE CODE P2112 OCCURRED. I HAD TO COAST MY VEHICLE ON TO THE ROAD SHOULDER AND RESTART THE ENGINE. I HAD TO STOP AND RESTART NUMEROUS TIMES BEFORE I COULD MAKE IT HOME, OFF OF A BUSY HIGHWAY. WHEN IT STALLED ON ME THE NEXT DAY, I HAD THE VEHICLE TOWED TO THE DEALER AND PAID FOR A DIAGNOSTIC THAT LOCATED A FAILURE CODE AT THE THROTTLE BODY.
AUTO START/STOP CAUSING WRENCH TO COME UP. SEEMS LIKE TRANSMISSION HAS ISSUE KEEPING PROPER FUEL LEVEL TO RESTART AT RED LIGHTS. CAUSES A HARD START. ALSO DRIVER DOOR DOES NOT LOCK AND UNLOCK WITH THE OTHER 3 DOORS.
WHEN ACCELERATING, ABOUT 90% OF THE TIME THE VEHICLE WILL GET WARNINGS FOR "HILL DESCENT CONTROL FAULT" AND "ADVANCE TRACK SERVICE". WHEN THIS HAPPENS, THE VEHICLE WILL NOT ACCELERATE ANYMORE AND STARTS SLOWING DOWN. THIS HAS HAPPENED TO ME TWICE GETTING ONTO THE INTERSTATE IN THE PAST MONTH BUT LUCKILY NO VEHICLES WERE COMING UP BEHIND ME. THIS IS A HUGE SAFETY ISSUE THOUGH THAT FORD NEEDS TO RECOGNIZE AND FIX. THE DEALERSHIP SAID THEY HAVE NO IDEA WHAT IS CAUSING IT BUT EVERYONE ONLINE SAYS THAT IT'S LIKELY TO BE THE STEERING RACK. RECALL THE STEERING RACK BECAUSE THIS HAS APPARENTLY HAPPENED TO A LOT OF PEOPLE.
CODE P1450- FUEL TANK IS UNABLE TO BLEED UP FUEL TANK VACUUM, AND THIS HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH THE FUEL PRESSURE SENSOR AT THE ENGINE. IT IS A DEFECTIVE FUEL TANK PRESSURE. DUE TO THIS DEFECT, THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT STAYS ON AND A PIECE NOW NEEDS TO BE REMOVED.
TRUCK SUDDENLY DECELERATED WHILE TRAVELING AT 70MPH. PULLED OVER, TURNED OFF TRUCK AND TURNED ON AGAIN AND ACCELERATED ONTO THE FREEWAY. THIS HAPPENED 3 TIMES ON THE FREEWAY. DROVE TO FORD DEALERSHIP IN ALBUQUERQUE FOR HELP. THEY EVALUATED AND FOUND THE THROTTLE BODY NEEDED REPLACEMENT. THIS SAME PART WAS A SAFETY RECALL ITEM ON OUR 2010 FORD ESCAPE.
DRIVING ON AN INTERSTATE 75 MPH WHEN THE HILLSIDE ASSIST LIGHT TURNED ON THE DASH ALONG WITH OTHER WARNING LIGHTS AND IMMEDIATELY LOST ALL POWER TO THE ENGINE REQUIRING A PULL OFF TO SHOULDER. SHUT OFF THE ENGINE AND RESTARTED WITH NO PROBLEM, ACCELERATED BACK TO SPEED AND WITHIN A FEW MILES THE LIGHT CAME ON AGAIN AND LOST ALL POWER. THIS HAPPENED SEVERAL MORE TIMES WHILE ATTEMPTING TO LOCATE A LOCAL FORD DEALER. WHILE WAITING AT THE DEALER I SEARCHED ONLINE AND FOUND NUMEROUS OTHERS HAVE EXPERIENCED THE SAME ISSUE ATTRIBUTED TO A DEFECTIVE THROTTLE BODY (SEE ATTACHED SCREENSHOT). AFTER BRINGING UP THE FREQUENCY OF THIS ISSUE WITH THE DEALER, I WAS TOLD THERE IS A TSB FROM FORD BUT NO ECONOMIC RELIEF FOR THE $675 BILL SINCE THERE WAS NOT A RECALL. THE DEALER STATED THERE WAS NOT A RECALL BECAUSE THIS IS NOT A SAFETY ISSUE. I...
MY 2015 F150 CREW CAB LOSES ABILITY TO ACCELERATE. YOU WILL BE GOING DOWN ROAD OR PULLING OUT AND WITHOUT ANY WARNING THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHTS LIGHT UP AND THE GAS PEDDLE WILL DO NOTHING. IT'S VERY DANGEROUS WHILE IN TRAFFIC. THE TRUCK ONLY HAS 45,000 MI ON IT, DONE SOME RESEARCH AND IT SOUNDS LIKE I'M NOT THE ONLY ONE HAVING THIS PROBLEM.
DEFECTIVE THROTTLE BODY CAUSED VEHICLE TO LOSE POWER. ENGINE LIGHT ON WITH MESSAGES SERVICE ADVANCED TRAC/HILL START NOT AVAILABLE. TRUCK HAS 44K MILES
I PURCHASED MY 2015 F150 ABOUT A YEAR AGO. THERE IS A TSB FOR A VALVE ON THE TOP OF THE GAS TANK. TSB STATES EMISSION RELATED WITH WARRANTY COVERED. FORD STATING IT WAS BUILT IN CANADA SO DON'T HAVE TO WARRANTY IN AMERICA. VEHICLE CUTS OUT AFTER STOPPING AND THEN ACCELERATING. HOW CAN FORD SELL A VEHICLE TO BE USED IN AMERICA WITH A KNOWN ISSUE AND NOT BE LIABLE? THIS IS A SAFETY CONCERN. TSB 15-0171 ENGINE CODE P2450.. PART NUMBER INVOLVED IS SAME ON CANADA OR AMERICAN VEHICLES.
WHILE IN MOTION, AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS ON A HIGHWAY AND SOMETIMES SLOWER SPEEDS ON TOWN STREETS TOO, MY TRUCK WOULD SUDDENLY START FLASHING MULTIPLE ERRORS AND THE THROTTLE WOULD IMMEDIATELY BE UNRESPONSIVE. IN 1 SECOND I WAS DEAD IN THE WATER. THE TRUCK WOULD IMMEDIATELY START SLOWING DOWN DUE TO LACK OF PROPULSION AND THE ENGINE WOULD HAVE A VERY LOW ROUGH IDLE. THE THROTTLE WOULD NOT WORK AT ANY SPEED. THE ONLY WAY TO RECOVER CONTROL OF PROPULSION WAS TO COME TO A COMPLETE STOP RIGHT WHERE THE PROBLEM OCCURRED (VERY DANGEROUS), TURN OFF THE VEHICLE AND THEN RESTART THE VEHICLE. AFTER RESTART THE PROBLEM WOULD COMPLETELY DISAPPEAR. UNTIL IT HAPPENED AGAIN. THIS PROBLEM APPEARED 3 TIMES IN 1 WEEK, ALL WHILE THE VEHICLE WAS TRAVELING UPHILL. I WAS LUCKY TO NOT BE IN TRAFFIC AT THE TIME. I TOOK THE VEHICLE TO THE DEALER AND THEY REPORTED THE...
DRIVING DOWN HIGHWAY WHEN TRUCK IMMEDIATELY LOST POWER, BEGAN SHAKING VIOLENTLY, WITH NO THROTTLE/ACCELERATION AVAILABLE. THE DASHBOARD WAS SHOWING ALL THE BELOW ERRORS. HILL DESCENT CONTROL FAULT SERVICE ADVANCETRAC HILL START ASSIST NOT AVAILABLE
TRUCK GOES INTO LIMP MODE CONSTANT IN MIDDLE OF TRAFFIC. SEVERE SAFETY HAZARD FOR ALL. THROWS THROTTLE BODY CODE. ACCORDING TO DEALER ITS NOT COVERED IN YHE RECALL OR WHATEVER FORD CALLED IT BUT ITS GONNA GET US KILLED.
TRANSMISSION DOWNSHIFTS VIOLENTLY FOR NO REASON. AT AROUND 20-30 MPH AND LIGHT THROTTLE IT FEELS LIKE YOU HIT A CONCRETE POST WHEN THIS HAPPENS. SHAKES THE WHOLE TRUCK VIOLENTLY
WHILE DRIVING ON A TWO-LANE ROAD, MY ENGINE WENT TO "LIMP" MODE, NO POWER, ROUGH IDLE AND THE DASH WARNING LIGHTS (WRENCH, CHECK SERVICE MANUAL ETC.) ALL LIT UP. NO POWER AND COSTED TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD. SHUT OFF, THEN VEHICLE STARTED NORMALLY BEFORE DOING IT A 2ND TIME. HAD TOWED TO THE FORD DEALER (RAY SCHULTENS, THE DALLES OREGON). DIAGNOSED AS FAULTY THROTTLE BODY ASSEMBLY (FORD TSB 16-0139) NOT COVERED UNDER POWERTRAIN WARRANTY BUT THIS CONDITION MAKES THE VEHICLE INHERENTLY UNSAFE WITH NO ABILITY TO CONTROL ENGINE POWER.
TRUCK WENT INTO LIMP MODE AFTER STOPPING FOR A RED LIGHT. THIS HAPPENED TWICE ONE DAY. DEALERSHIP SAID THEY REPLACED THE THROTTLE BODY ASSEMBLY. WHEN IN LIMP IT TOOK FOREVER TO GET THROUGH THE INTERSECTION, LONG ENOUGH THAT THE LIGHT CHANGED BACK TO RED.
I HAVE A 2015 FORD F150 2.7 ECOBOOST WITH 66,000 MILES ON IT, AND MY FUEL PUMP HAS GONE BAD IN IT. I HAVE HEARD FROM MANY FELLOW OWNERS THAT THE SAME STYLE TRUCK HAS ALSO HAD FUEL PUMP FAILURES, MOST WITH LESS MILES ON THEM THAN MINE. THERE IS A RECALL ON MOST OF THE OTHER FORD VEHICLES FOR THEIR FUEL PUMPS BEING AT FALL.
WHILE DRIVING ON I76 IN PA. TRUCK LOST POWER WITH NO WARNING AND COASTED TO A COMPLETE STOP. IT WOULD NOT RESTART. TOWED TO FORD DEALER WHO IDENTIFIED CONTROL UNIOT FAILURE AND FUEL PUMP FAILURE. BITH HAD TO BE REPAIRED. VEHICLE HAD 82850 MILES.
TRUCK IS GOING INTO LIMP MODE RANDOMLY AND IDLING ROUGH WITH NO THROTTLE RESPONSE. GETTING DTC CODE P2112, ELECTRONIC THROTTLE BODY ACTUATOR STUCK CLOSED. THOROUGHLY CLEANED THROTTLE BODY AND IT IS STILL HAPPENING. THIS HAPPENS RANDOMLY DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD LEAVING ME WITH NO THROTTLE RESPONSE
2015 F-150 3.5L ECOBOOST DRIVING ON HIGHWAY AT SPEEDS 60-75MPH WENT TO "LIMP MODE" LOSING ALL ACCELERATION WITH WARNINGS "SERVICE ADVANCE TRAC" "HILL DESCENT CONTROL FAULT" AND "HILL START ASSIST NOT AVAILABLE" ALONG WITH THE SERVICE WRENCH LIGHT. RESULTED HAVING TO PULL OVER ON INTERSTATE 10 WITH BUSY TRAFFIC, ALSO WHILE IN THE MIDDLE OF A TRAFFIC LIGHT TURNING LEFT. THIS HAS HAPPENED 6 TIMES. FORD DEALER HAS DIAGNOSED THIS AS A THROTTLE BODY ISSUE AND WILL BE REPLACED AT MY COST
WHEN FILLING GAS TANK, STATION FUELING NOZZLE DID NOT SHUT OFF, OVERFLOWING TRUCK FILL PIPE. AT NEXT FUELING, GAS PIPE WAS STILL FULL OF GAS AT TOP FLAP VALVE; COULD NOT PUT GAS INTO FUEL TANK. TOOK VEHICLE TO DEALER; WHO INDICATED THAT FUEL TANK WAS "COLLAPSED" DUE TO VACUUM CREATED BY STOPPED UP VENT SYSTEM. FUEL TANK AND ACCESSORIES BEING REPLACED, BUT DEALER CHARGED ME FOR WORK. SAFETY ISSUE IS COLLAPSED FUEL TANK MAY BREAK, LEAK AND CAUSE A GASOLINE FIRE, AT ANY TIME. THERE IS A SYSTEM DESIGN FLAW, OR CRITICAL EQUIPMENT ITEM FAILURE, THAT WOULD NOT FUNCTION PROPERLY WHEN TANK IS OVERFILLED. IT IS NOT UNCOMMON THAT FUEL STATION GAS VALVES ON END OF STATION HOSE FAIL TO SHUT OFF WHEN TANK IS FULL, SO THE FUEL SYSTEM DESIGN SHOULD TAKE THIS FACT INTO CONSIDERATION. THIS IS A SEVERE SAFETY HAZARD WHICH COULD RESULT IN AN ACCIDENT,...
I JUST RETURNED FROM MY FORD DEALERSHIP TODAY AFTER MY F-150 STOPPED COLD AND WENT INTO LIMP MODE WHILE I ACCELERATED UP A HILL ON HWY 78 IN RED LODGE, MT. THE DASH LIT UP WITH A HILL DESCENT CONTROL AND SEVERAL OTHER ERROR MESSAGES. THIS WOULD HAVE BEEN CATASTROPHIC IF I HAD BEEN ACCELERATING WHILE PASSING. THE FORUMS ARE FULL OF SIMILAR PROBLEMS AND DEALERSHIPS KNOW THEY NEED TO REPLACE THE THROTTLE BODY. THIS SHOULD DEFINITELY BE A SAFETY RECALL.
