2016 FORD F-150 Engine Problems

EXHAUST MANIFOLD ON DRIVER SIDE WARPED AND LEAKS CAUSING A SCREECHING SOUND ON ACCELERATION AND SLIGHT TICK ON START UP AND IDLE. *TR

DRIVING EASTBOUND ON I-10 AT 75 -80 MPH, ON A MOUNTAIN, SUDDENLY ADVANCTRAC FAULT WARNING AND ENGINE POWER LOST. VEHICLE ENTERED LIMP MODE. I WAS FORCED TO 'LIMP' ON THE SHOULDER TO REACH A SAFE AREA TO STOP WITH CELL SERVICE AND WAIT FOR A TOW TRUCK. THIS WAS A VERY DANGEROUS SITUATION. SEMI TRAFFIC AT HIGH SPEEDS WERE BLOWING PAST VERY LITTLE SHOULDER SPACE TO NAVIGATE. AT EACH GUARD RAIL I WAS FORCED TO STOP - WAIT FOR A BREAK IN TRAFFIC- RESTART AND PRAY FOR ENOUGH MOMENTUM TO GET AROUND THE AREA. I FINALLY LIMPED INTO WILCOX AZ AND CONTACTED FORD ROADSIDE ASSISTANCE. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED 74 MILES TO SMITH FORD IN LORDSBURG NM $280. FRA ADVISED THAT DUE TO COVID 19 NO PERSONAL TRANSPORTATION IS AVAILABLE. NO ALTERNATE TRANSPORTATION IS AVAILABLE IN WILCOX AZ. SMITH FORD SERVICE DOES NOT OPEN UNTIL MONDAY. ANOTHER ROADSIDE SERVICE $205...

MY 2016 F150 5.0 SUPERCREWHAS STARTED TO REGULARLY STALL WHEN IDLING IN PARK OR WHEN BRAKING OR COASTING WHEN COMING TO A INTERSECTION. I CAN IMMEDIATELY RESTART UPON PUTTING IN PARK OR NEUTRAL. SOMETIMES A CHECK ENGINE LIGHT COMES ON. UPON GOOGLING THE PROBLEM IT SEEMS PRETTY COMMON WITH NO ANSWERS OF CERTAINTY. *TR

27 APRIL 2020 - ENGINE STALLED WITHOUT WARNING AT SPEED MULTIPLE TIMES, NO ENGINE WARNING LIGHTS ON ONLY "ORANGE WRENCH" INDICATING 4X4 PROBLEM (PER THE MANUAL). VEHICLE WOULD RESTART ONE FIRST COUPLE OF OCCASIONS, WOULD NOT RESTART SUBSEQUENTLY, CRANKING TIMEOUT OCCURRED. WAITED ABOUT 15 MINUTES, VEHICLE RESTARTED AND LEFT IN PARK RUNNING WHILE WAITING FOR TOW TRUCK. HAD VEHICLE TOWED TO MUZI FORD IN NEEDHAM MA FOR EVALUATION. CURRENT DATE IS 28 APRIL 2020. THIS EVENT COULD HAVE CAUSED A CRASH WITHOUT WARNING. WEATHER - RAIN ABOUT 45F, MORNING AROUND 8-9AM

THE LOCKS ON MY TRUCK FROZE IN WINTER AND AS MY WIFE WAS GOIN DOWN INTERSTATE THE DOOR CAME OPEN AND I'VE WENT TO THE DEALERSHIP WHERE I GOT IT ND THEY REFUSE TA FIX MY RECALLS AND TOLD ME IT WOULD BE 4 DAYS WITHOUT A VEHICLE AND I'M ACTIVE MILITARY AND CAN NOT GO WITHOUT A VEHICLE THEY OFFERED NO CAR TA ME AND WE'RE RUDE AND NOT WILLING TA SHOW ME WHICH OF THE 10 RECALLS ON MY TRUCK IF ANY HAD BEEN FIXED . I JUST BOUGHT THIS TRUCK IN 2019 AND AM HAVING NUTHIN BUT ISSUES AND I BELIEVE IT TA BE A LEMON AND THE DEALER IS OF NO HELP.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNED A 2016 FORD F-150. CONTACT STATED HE WAS IN HIS HOME WHEN HE HEARD A LOUD EXPLOSION, UPON GOING OUTSIDE HE SAW FLAMES EXITING UNDER THE HOOD OF THE TRUCK. THE CONTACT STATED THE VEHICLE WAS ENGULFED IN FLAMES AS THE VEHICLE WAS PARKED IN THE CAR PORT HIS HOME CAUGHT ON FIRE. THE CONTACT WAS ABLE TO ALERT HIS FAMILY AND EVERYONE EXITED THE HOME SAFELY. THE FIRE AND POLICE DEPARTMENT WAS CONTACTED. THE FIRE DEPARTMENT WAS ABLE TO EXTINGUISH THE FLAMES. THE CONTACT MENTIONED THAT THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DRIVEN IN ABOUT A WEEK AND THAT HE HAD PURCHASED THE VEHICLE 4 MONTHS AGO. A POLICE AND FIRE DEPARTMENT REPORT WERE FILED. THE VEHICLE AND THE CONTACT HOME WERE BOTH DEEM A TOTALED LOSS BY THE POLICE DEPARTMENT. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE WARE OF THE ISSUES. THE DEALER WAS NOT CONTACTED. THE FAILURE...

THE 2016 F150 WITH 40,000 MILES ON THE ENGINE HAD EXPERIENCED A ROUGH IDLE AND ENGINE STALLS. THE PROBLEM IS IN ABLE TO BE PREDICTABLE RECREATED CAUSING THE DEALERSHIP TO NOT SOLVE THE PROBLEM. WHEN THE TRUCK WAS AT 12000 MILES, MANY ENGINE PARTS WERE REPLACED TO FIX THIS ISSUES HOWEVER WERE UNSUCCESSFUL. THE VEHICLE IS BECOMING DIFFICULT TO DRIVE OR HAVE REPAIRED BY THE DEALER. THE VEHICLE TYPICALLY ROUGH ISLES OR STALLS WHEN COMING TO A STOP OR SITTING STILL. THIS POSES A CONCERNS WHEN MAKING A LEFT ON A STANDARD GREEN LIGHT WITH ONCOMING TRAFFIC.

2016 FORD F150 V8 ENGINE. DRIVING DOWN THE FREEWAY, MY A/C COMPRESSOR WENT OUT. IT COMPLETELY LOCKED UP CAUSING THE ENGINE TO STALL AND BECOME DISABLED AND COULD NOT BE RESTARTED. SHORTLY AFTER, I LOST POWER STEERING AND BRAKES (AS A RESULT OF THE ENGINE LOSS) WHICH CREATED A SAFETY ISSUE ON A FREEWAY AT 10:30PM AT NIGHT AS I HAD TO GET THE VEHICLE OVER LANES OF TRAFFIC WITHOUT POWER STEERING AND EASE OF BRAKING AND BRING THE VEHICLE TO A STOP WITHOUT POWER ASSISTED BRAKES. THANKFULLY, WE WERE ABLE TO GET OVER, BUT I DON'T KNOW THAT EVERYONE WOULD BE SO LUCKY. I DON'T THINK AN A/C COMPRESSOR BREAKING INTERNALLY SHOULD DISABLE THE VEHICLE'S ENGINE UNLESS SOMETHING IS FUNDAMENTALLY WRONG WITH THE CONSTRUCTION OF THE COMPRESSOR. I COULD SEE ACCIDENTS OCCURRING AS A RESULT OF THE ENGINE BECOMING DISABLED.

MY 2016 FORD F150 WITH ENGINE BLOCK HEATER CAUGHT FIRE TODAY 14 FEBRUARY 2020 AT 11:12 AM. IT WAS MOVING AND CAUGHT FIRE WHEN I PARKED THE TRUCK

I WAS COMPLETING A 3 HOUR DRIVE OF APPROXIMATELY 120 MILES (I HAD LESS THAN 5 MILES TO GO TILL I ARRIVED AT MY DESTINATION) WHEN MY SENSORS STARTED LIGHTING UP MY MESSAGE BOARD AND DASH SYSTEM. I WAS IN THE LEFT TURN LANE TO ENTER THE ON-RAMP TO US65 SOUTH WHEN THIS HAPPENED SO I PULLED OFF TO THE SHOULDER TO INVESTIGATE. I HAD JUST PUT MY TRUCK IN PARK WHEN A CAR PULLED UP AND SAID THAT MY ENGINE WAS ON FIRE. WHEN I GOT OUT TO LOOK, THE FIRE WAS ROLLING OUT FROM UNDER THE DRIVERS SIDE WHEEL WELL. AS WELL, THERE WAS EITHER A FLUID OR MELTED PLASTIC DRIPPING DOWN TO THE ASPHALT THAT WAS ALSO ON FIRE. THE FIRE APPEARED TO PUT ITSELF OUT, FOR THE MOST PART, PRIOR TO THE FIRE COMPANY ARRIVING WITHIN THE NEXT 10 MINUTES. I HAD, WHAT I BELIEVED TO...

VEHICLE STALLS WHILE IN MOTION, SITTING STATIONARY AT A STOPLIGHT, OR IN PARK. VEHICLE HAS STALLED MULTIPLE TIMES DRIVING DOWN THE INTERSTATE AT 55+ AND LEAVES THE DRIVER UNABLE TO CONTROL VEHICLE AND CREATES A SAFETY HAZARD TO THE DRIVER AND OTHERS ON THE ROAD.

THE TRUCK BEGAN TO MAKE A LOUD, CLUNKY NOISE, ALLTHEWHILE IT WAS SLOWING DOWN AND THEN EVENTUALLY CAME TO A STOP AND WAS NOT DRIVEABLE ANYMORE. WE WERE DRIVING IN A NEIGHBORHOOD WHEN IT STALLED. IT WOULD NOT MOVE. IT WOULD TURN ON, BUT IT WOULD NOT ACCELERATE. IT STILL MADE THE CLUNKY, LOUD NOISE.

INTERMITTENTLY WHILE TOWING, AFTER DRIVING SEVERAL HUNDRED MILES OF NON STOP HIGHWAY DRIVING, THE ENGINE WILL KILL AFTER EXITING THE FREEWAY. WHEN I RESTART IT BY TURNING THE KEY, IT WILL KILL AGAIN AS SOON AS I PUT IT IN DRIVE. THIS WILL HAPPEN SEVERAL TIMES BEFORE I GET THE ENGINE TO KEEP RUNNING. THIS HAPPENS ONLY IN THE TOW/HAUL MODE. I HAVE BEEN TO MY LOCAL DEALERSHIP 3 TIMES AND THEY HAVE NOT BEEN ABLE TO FIX THE PROBLEM.

VEHICLE ENGINE SHAKES AND SHUTS OFF WHEN STOPPED AND AT IDLE. THIS HAPPENS AFTER VEHICLE WARMS UP AND HAS BEEN DRIVEN FOR AT LEAST 15 MINUTES. I HAVE READ MANY OTHER COMPLAINTS ABOUT FORD TRUCKS DOING THE SAME THING. HAVE READ THAT FORD IS AWARE OF PROBLEMS WITH VARIABLE CAM TIMING SENSORS AND CAM PHASERS, BUT ARE NOT ISSUING RECALL. THIS HAS HAPPENED TO ME AT LEADT 6 TIMES.

ENGINE STALLS WHILE DRIVING. THIS HAS HAPPENED MULTIPLE TIMES WHERE MULTIPLE WARNING LIGHTS WILL FLASH ON THE DASHBOARD SUCH AS THE COLLISION DETECTION BEING DISABLED AND THE ELECTRONIC STABILITY CONTROL HAS BEEN DISABLED. AS SOON AS THESE WARNINGS APPEAR, THE TRUCK'S ACCELERATION IS DISABLED AND IT WILL COAST TO STOP, BUT HE TRUCK IS STILL RUNNING. IT REMAINS IN A LOW IDLE THAT IS VERY ROUGH, VIBRATING THE ENTIRE TRUCK LIKE IT'S ABOUT TO KILL THE ENGINE, BUT BARELY KEEPING THE IDLE HIGH ENOUGH TO KEEP IT GOING. THIS HAS HAPPENED AT DIFFERENT SPEEDS AND THERE IS NOTHING YOU CAN DO, BUT TRY TO PULL OFF THE ROAD. ONCE STOPPED, YOU CAN PUT THE TRUCK IN PARK AND TURN THE TRUCK OFF AND BACK ON. SOMETIMES ONLY ONE RESTART IS REQUIRED, BUT SOMETIMES IT WILL DO THE SAME THING AGAIN SHORTLY AFTER YOU BEGIN DRIVING AGAIN. THIS CAN BE EXTREMELY...

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2016 FORD F-150. WHILE DRIVING, THE CHECK ENGINE INDICATOR SUDDENLY ILLUMINATED AND REMAINED LIT AFTER THE VEHICLE WAS RESTARTED. THE CONTACT CONNECTED A DIAGNOSTIC TOOL TO THE VEHICLE AND THE FAILURE CODE INDICATED THAT THE INTAKE MANIFOLD DID NOT OPEN BANK NUMBER TWO. THE LOCAL DEALER AND MANUFACTURER WERE NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 80,000. THE VIN WAS UNKNOWN.

VEHICLE EXHAUST LEAKS INTO CABIN. FORD SAYS NOT COVERED UNDER WARRANTY. PAINT FALLING OFF FENDERS. FORD SAYS NOT COVERED UNDER WARRANTY. BACK UP CAMERA WORKED UNTIL FORD DEALER WORKED ON IT, HAS NOT WORKED SINCE THEN AND DEALER (HOUSE FORD ADDRESS: 3538 HWY 61 W, RED WING, MN 55066) WONT OR CAN'T FIX IT.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2016 FORD F-150. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE VEHICLE STALLED WITHOUT WARNING WHILE IDLING AT A STOPPED POSITION. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO SHULTS FORD LINCOLN (10401 PERRY HWY, WEXFORD, PA 15090, (724) 934-2388), BUT NO FAILURE CODES COULD BE LOCATED. THE FAILURE RECURRED OVER AN EIGHT MONTH PERIOD AND AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC COULD NOT DIAGNOSE THE FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS SCHEDULED TO GO BACK TO THE DEALER TO BE REPAIRED AT THE CONTACT'S EXPENSE. THE CONTACT HAD THE VEHICLE REPAIRED ISSUE WAS POWER TRAIN WARRANTY, WHICH EXPIRED IN 3,000 MILES. THE MANUFACTURER HAD NOT BEEN CONTACTED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 39,000. THE VIN WAS UNKNOWN. *DT*JB

ATTEMPTING TO ACCELERATE, NO POWER. VEHICLE WAS ON 2 LANE HIGHWAY WITH CONCRETE BARRIERS ON BOTH SIDES AND NO SHOULDER. I WAS GOING APPROX 70 MPH. I HAD OUR TODDLER, NEW BORN AND WIFE IN THEN VEHICLE. VEHICLE SLOWED FASTER THAN I HAVE EVER FELT BEFORE. CARS AND TRAILERS SLAMMING ON BRAKES. I'M ASSUMING THIS DID NOT TRIGGER MY BRAKE LIGHTS AND IT WAS ALMOST DARK. SO INCREDIBLY DANGEROUS NOT TO MENTION SCARY. DASH WARNINGS INDICATED NO TRACTION CONTROL, HILL DECENT OR ABS. DEALER IS REPLACING THE THROTTLE BODY. THIS WAS A CATASTROPHIC AND DANGEROUS FLAW.

WHILE USING MY VEHICLE UNDER NORMAL CONDITIONS THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON SO I HAD VEHICLE CHECKED AT AUTOZONE AND O'REILY'S WHICH SHOWED 2 DIFFERENT CODES AND TOOK IT TO MACHAIK DEALERSHIP. TURNS OUT I HAD TO HAVE BOTH CYLINDER HEADS REPLACE, CRANKSHAFT BOLT REPLACED AS WELL AS A FEW OTHER ITEMS. I WAS TOLD IT WAS AN ISSUE THAT FORD WAS AWARE OF AND DIDN'T NOTIFY ME OF IT WHEN I BOUT THE VEHICLE. THEY COVERED THE COST DUE TO THE VEHICLE BEING UNDER WARRANTY WHICH WAS ABOUT $5,000. $ MONTHS LATER I GOT MY VEHICLE BACK AND ABOUT 30 MILES OF DRIVING 55MPH IT STARTED BLOWING A THICK CLOUD OF WHITE SMOKE WITH SOME GREY SMOKE. I TAKE THE VEHICLE HOME AND LET IT SIT FOR 28 DAYS BEFORE I HAVE TO USE IT AND AFTER ABOUT 23 MILES IT STARTED SMOKING AGAIN. I TAKE IT TO...

HILL DESCENT CONTROL FAULT/ SERVICE ADVANCETRAC WARNING SUDDENLY TURNED ON. ALTERNATED W SERVICE LIGHT. BUT I WAS JUST DRIVING HOME FROM WORK ON A 70 DEGREE DAY ON A DRY PAVED ROAD DECELERATING FROM A 40MPH ZONE TO A 30 MPH ZONE UP A SLIGHT INCLINE. I WASN'T USING HILL DESCENT AND TRACTION WAS FINE. THE DISTURBING PART WAS THE VEHICLE SUDDENLY RAN ROUGH AND HAD NO POWER. I COULD NOT GET IT TO RUN WELL ENOUGH PULL IT OVER OUT OF THE TRAFFIC LANE. AN ON OFF CYCLE RETURNED FUNCTION FOR A FEW SECONDS AND I GOT AROUND THE CORNER BEFORE THE FAULT OCCURRED AGAIN. WITH NO HILLS THE LAST BLOCK I GOT TO MY DRIVEWAY WHERE A LONGER OFF PERIOD RETURNED THE VEHICLE TO FUNCTION. THIS TYPE OF SUDDEN POWER LOSS COULD CAUSE AN ACCIDENT.

TRUCK EXPERIENCED MULTIPLE SENSOR FAILURES OVER SEVERAL MONTHS THAT RESET. FAILURES INCLUDE CAR STALLING IN INTERSECTION, BLIND SPOT MONITORING, BACK UP SENSORS, CAR SHUTTING OFF AND TURNING BACK ON ON ITS OWN. CAR HAD TO BE POWERED DOWN AND SHUT OFF FOR 30 SECONDS BEFORE BEING ALLOWED TO RESTART. MOST RECENT FAILURE RESULTED IN TRUCK HORN GOING OFF AS WELL AS CAR TURNING OFF WHILE GOING 35-40 MPH THEN RESTARTING ON ITS OWN - CAR SURGED FORWARD AFTER IT RESTARTED ITSELF. AT THE SAME TIME HAZARDS COMING ON, DOORS UNLOCKING AND LOCKING AND REAR TAILGATE OPENING. AFTER BRINGING CAR TO A COMPLETE STOP, SHUT OFF CAR AND IT TURNED ITSELF BACK ON (HORN WENT OFF, HAZARDS WENT ON, DOORS UNLOCKED AND LOCKED, AND REAR TAIL GATE RELEASED). TOWED TO DEALERSHIP FOR REPAIRS AND THEY WERE UNABLE TO RECREATE THE PROBLEM.

BOUGHT THE TRUCK A YEAR AND A HALF AGO THE ENGINE HAS BLOWN AND NOW THE BRAKE MASTER CYLINDER IS WENT OUT PROBABLY BE THE BRAKE BOOSTER NEXT THEY SHOULD BE RELIABLE FOR THIS I'M 100 MILES OVER MY WARRANTY AND THEY WERE STILL ON FIX IT

MY VEHICLE WAS IN MOTION AT APPROXIMATELY 65 MPH WHEN IT SUDDENLY ENTERED A LIMP MODE, INDICATED BY MULTIPLE DASH WARNING LIGHTS AND AN ABRUPT LOSS OF POWER. THE VEHICLE WAS INCREDIBLY UNSAFE TO OPERATE IN SUCH CONDITION. FORD HAS A KNOWN PROBLEM WITH THE ELECTRONIC THROTTLE BODY USED ON THESE MOTORS, BUT HAS FAILED TO ISSUE A RECALL ON A PART THAT COULD CAUSE GREAT BODILY HARM AND INJURY IF IT SHOULD FAIL IN HEAVY TRAFFIC SCENARIOS.

STARTED DRIVING AM FOR ABOUT 5-7 MILES AND GETTING ON AN ON RAMP TO FREEWAY VEHICLE SUDDENLY HAD NO POWER AND IDLE VERY ROUGH/ COULD NOT ACCELERATE AND SERVICE ENGINE LIGHT, HILL ASSIST NOT ACTIVE AND ANOTHER SERVICE LIGHT CAME ON. PULLED OVER TO THE SIDE OF ROAD AND SAT FOR ABOUT 30 SECONDS, TURNED VEHICLE OFF AND RE STARTED, NO FAULT WARNING LIGHTS WERE ON AND ALL WAS FINE. DROVE 22 MILES TO DEWEY FORD IN ANKENY, IOWA TOLD THEM WHAT HAPPENED AND THEY ASKED IF ANY FAULT LIGHTS WERE STILL ON AND I SAID NO AND THEY TOLD ME THEY WOULDN'T BE ABLE TO DIAGNOSE THE PROBLEM WITHOUT A FAULT LIGHT BEING ON. THEY SAID IT COULD BE WATER IN THE FUEL AND SUGGESTED A COUPLE CANS OF SEA FOAM AND TO TOP FUEL OFF WITH PREMIUM/NO ALCOHOL. DID THAT, DROVE AN ADDITIONAL 22 MILES WITH OUT ANY...

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2016 FORD F-150. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 65 MPH, "SEE SERVICE MANUAL, TRACTION CONTROL NOT AVAILABLE, CHECK ENGINE" ILLUMINATED ON THE INSTRUMENT PANEL. THE VEHICLE LOST POWER AND THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL DID NOT RESPOND. THE CONTACT COASTED THE VEHICLE TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD TO A COMPLETE STOP AS IT BEGAN TO SHAKE. WHEN THE VEHICLE WAS TURNED OFF AND RESTARTED, ALL THE WARNING INDICATORS WENT AWAY AND THEN ILLUMINATED AGAIN. THE VEHICLE WAS DRIVEN TO THE CONTACT'S RESIDENCE. RICH FORD (8601 LOMAS BLVD, ALBUQUERQUE, NM 87112) WAS CONTACTED VIA PHONE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT TAKEN TO THE DEALER FOR DIAGNOSTIC TESTING. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 49,500.

WHILE DRIVING NORMALLY ERROR/MAINTENANCE ALARMS GO OFF AND THE TRUCK WILL DROP TO A ROUGH IDLE (TOTAL LOSS OF POWER), IS NOT RESPONSIVE TO THROTTLE INPUT, AND MULTIPLE ALARM MESSAGES ARE DISPLAYED. IN EVERY CASE, I HAVE HAD TO PULL OVER, SHUT THE ENGINE DOWN, WAIT UNTIL ALL SYSTEMS HAVE POWERED DOWN, AND RESTART THE TRUCK. IN THE PAST AND THE MOST RECENT OCCURRENCE, SOMETIMES THIS ONLY OCCURS ONCE BUT IN A COUPLE OF INSTANCES IT WILL OCCUR A COUPLE OF TIMES IN A ROW BEFORE RESUMING NORMAL OPERATION. THIS IS A VERY DANGEROUS CONDITION- TOTAL LOSS OF POWER WHILE IN TRAFFIC ON BUSY ROADS. FORD HAS DIAGNOSED AS AN ELECTRONIC THROTTLE BODY FAILURE AND REFUSED TO COVER THIS ON WARRANTY (OUT OF WARRANTY 3 MOS) AND IT HAS TAKEN MUCH RESEARCH ON MY PART TO DISCOVER THAT THIS IS A KNOWN ISSUE WITH FORD ETB'S GOING BACK SOME TIME...

THROTTLE BODY FAILURE: FIRST OCCURRED ON ORIGINAL THROTTLE BODY (OEM PART) IN 2018. VEHICLE WAS TURNED ON AND STATIONARY IN A PARKING LOT. HEARD A LOUD KNOCKING, DIAGNOSED AT FORD DEALERSHIP. REPLACED ORIGINAL THROTTLE BODY WITH NEW OEM THROTTLE BOTTLE. SECOND OCCURRENCE ON REPLACEMENT THROTTLE BODY (OEM PART) IN JUNE 2019. VEHICLE WAS IN MOTION ON AN INTERSTATE, WRENCH LIGHT CAME ON, PUTTING THE TRUCK IN LIMP MODE AND THE TRUCK STALLED. I PULLED OVER ON THE SIDE OF THE INTERSTATE, TURNED THE TRUCK OFF, WAITED SEVERAL MINUTES AND TURNED VEHICLE BACK ON. CLEARED THE FAULT AND WAS ABLE TO CONTINUE DRIVE WITH LOUD KNOCKING SOUND OCCURRING LIKE IN THE FIRST INSTANCE.

I HAD THE WRENCH SYMBOL APPEAR ON MY DASH DISPLAY AND THE VEHICLE STOPPED, LOST POWER WHILE I WAS IN TRAFFIC. IT IS NOW AT THE DEALER THAT SOLD IT TO ME, BUT THIS IS SCARY SITUATION TO LOSE POWER WHILE DRIVING.

WAS DRIVING DOWN THE HIGHWAY AT 45 MPH, ALL OF A SUDDEN ADVANCE TRACK SERVICE WARNING APPEARED, HILL DESCENT OFF, AND TRUCK LOST ALL POWER AND BEGAN TO IDEA ROUGHLY, COULD NOT ACCELERATE, WAS ABLE TO PULL OFF THE ROAD. FORTUNATELY I HAVE A MECHANICAL BACKGROUND, TURNED OFF IGNITION WAITED A MINUTE AND TRIED TO RESTART THE TRUCK, CRANKED HARDER THAN NORMAL, ENGINE SERVICE LITE WAS ON, TURNED OFF ADVANCE TRACK AND WENT A FEW MILES AND HAPPENED AGAIN. WENT THROUGH SAME STEPS AND RESTARTED VEHICLE, WAS ABLE TO DRIVE 10 MILES TO HOME. WHEN I STARTED THE TRUCK THIS MORNING THE ENGINE SERVICE LIGHT WAS OFF, WENT A FEW MILES AND SAME THING HAPPENED AGAIN. THIS IS A DEFINITE SERIOUS ACCIDENT WAITING TO HAPPEN. IF YOU ARE ON AN INTERSTATE GO 70 MPH IN TRAFFIC AND THIS WOULD HAPPEN MOST PEOPLE WOULD NOT KNOW WHAT TO DO. DOING SOME...

VEHICLE IDLES ROUGH AND STALLS AFTER DRIVING FOR ABOUT 30 MINUTES OR SO. RPMS DROP TO BELOW 500, VEHICLE SHAKES AND SPUTTERS, AND SOMETIMES DIES. I HAVE HAD THE VEHICLE DIE MULTIPLE TIMES BEFORE TURNING AT A STOP LIGHT/SIGN.

STARTING AT 30,000 MILES THE TRUCK HAD A ROUGH IDLE AT A STOPLIGHT OR STOP SIGN IN GEAR, AND THEN AFTER A COUPLE MONTHS I WOULD SHIFTING FROM REVERSE TO DRIVE AND IT SHUT DOWN. NOW SOMETIMES WHEN I COME UP TO A STOP SIGN OR STOP LIGHT IT SHUTS OFF I WAS EVEN AT AN INTERSECTION AND IT SHUT OFF THIS IS A HUGE SAFETY CONCERN AND FORD NEEDS TO FIX IT NOW. NO CODE POPS UP AND FORD CANNOT RE-CREATE IT OR FIX IT

I'VE BOUGHT MY 2016 F150 XLT FX4 SC 5.0L USED WITH ABOUT 69K MILES ON IT AND HAD IT FOR NEARLY A YEAR NOW. SINCE I PURCHASED THE TRUCK IT WILL DEVELOP A ROUGH IDLE AND WILL STALL WHILE AT A STOP LIGHT. THIS WILL HAPPEN WHEN I MAKE A MULTI STOP TRIP, FOR EXAMPLE IF I STOP AT THE MARKET ON THE WAY HOME FROM WORK, OR SOMETIMES EVEN JUST RETURNING HOME FROM WORK. SO FAR THIS ISSUE HAS ONLY HAPPENED ON CITY STREETS. OUTSIDE TEMPS ARE NO FACTORS AS THIS HAPPENS IN COLD WINTERY CONDITIONS OR HOT AND HUMID WEATHER. EVERY TIME THE TRUCK STALLS, THE CEL DOES NOT COME ON OR ANY OTHER DASH LIGHT EXCEPT THE BATTERY LIGHT AND I CAN RESTART THE TRUCK IMMEDIATELY WITH NO ISSUES. AFTER THE TRUCK RESTARTS THERE IS NO FAULT LIGHT ON THE DASH AND TRUCK ACTS LIKE NOTHING HAPPENED....

WE JUST TOOK MY 2016 F150 ECOBOOST TO WEST TEXAS OVER THANKSGIVING. TOWED UNDER 7500 LBS. TOWED COMPLETELY NORMAL THE WHOLE TIME (15 HOURS) UNTIL THE RETURN TRIP HOME. ABOUT 2.5 HOURS INTO MY RETURN TRIP (I WAS TOWING WITHOUT MY HUSBAND AND WITH TWO YOUNG KIDS ON A BACK HIGHWAY WITH NO CELL SERVICE AND ABSOLUTELY NO STOPS FOR 2 OF THOSE HOURS😯) I PULLED OVER TO SEE WHERE MY NEXT GAS STATION WAS AND MY TRUCK DIED. IT WOULD RESTART BUT WOULD DIE AGAIN. I FINALLY FIGURE I'M SCREWED, I'LL TRY AND JUST HIT THE GAS AND GO. SO I TOOK OFF AND BLEW THROUGH A STOP SIGN AND DIDN'T STOP UNTIL I REACHED A GAS STATION, WHERE IT DIED WHEN I STOPPED.. IT WAS SATURDAY AFTERNOON AND ALL THE REPAIR SHOPS WERE CLOSED AND THERE WEREN'T ANY PARTS STORES OPEN. I FINALLY UNPLUGGED THE CAMPER, THINKING IT...

I HAVE HAD MY TRUCK TO DEALER FOR MANY MULTIPLE ISSUES INVOLVING ELECTRICAL SINCE APPROXIMATELY 6600 MILES BEGINNING WITH SHAKING WHEN I SLOWED DOWN WITHOUT UTILIZING BRAKES. SINCE THEN I'VE BEEN AT THE DEALER WITH MANY ELECTRICAL ISSUES WHERE TRUCK WOULD NOT ACCELERATE AND ALL LIGHTS WOULD ILLUMINATE. THIS HAS BEEN ONGOING AND VERY UNSAFE. WHEN I WOULD ATTEMPT TO MAKE A LEFT HAND TURN I WOULD PROCEED TO CROSS OPPOSING LANES AND VEHICLE WOULD FEEL LIKE IT WAS IN NEUTRAL AND ALMOST WAS STRUCK ON NUMEROUS OCCASIONS. VEHICLE HAS ALSO OVER ACCELERATED VERY EARLY IN OWNERSHIP. MOST RECENTLY AND I PICKED UP MY TRUCK AND A WEEK LATER SAME PROBLEM. I HAVE HAD MY TRUCK AT THE DEALERSHIP WITH ELECTRICAL PROBLEMS THAT CREATE A GREAT DANGER TO MYSELF AS WELL AS OTHER MOTORISTS. CERTAINLY I CANNOT BE THE ONLY PERSON WHO LITERALLY AS OF THE FIRST WEEK OF DECEMBER...
