2016 FORD F-150 Engine Problems

2016 F-150 TRUCK STALLS OR TURNS OFF WHEN YOU ARE SLOWING DOWN OR COMING TO A STOP ON ANY ROAD. IT IDLES ROUGH MOSTLY WHEN YOU SLOW DOWN OR STOP BUT NOW THE ENGINE HAS TURNED OFF 4 TIMES IN THE LAST 2 WEEKS. IT STARTED AT 60,000 MILES AND ABOUT TO HIT 70,000 NOW.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2016 FORD F-150. THE CONTACT STATED THAT OIL WAS LEAKING ONTO THE OIL PAN. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO MOCKS FORD-LINCOLN-MAZDA (913 SE 6TH STREET, GRANTS PASS, OR 97526, 541-476-6656) WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE OIL PAN NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED, BUT THE SYMPTOMS RECURRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED AND STATED THAT THEY WOULD DOCUMENT THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 12,000. *TT CONSUMER STATED APPARENTLY THERE IS A DESIGN/MANUFACTURING DEFECT WITH THE OIL PAN. IT LEAKS CONSTANTLY AND I'VE SEEN VIDEOS WHERE THE OIL DUMPS SEIZING THE ENGINE OR PUTTING IT IN "LIMP MODE". THEY HAVE TRIED 2 DIFFERENT REPAIR PROCEDURES THAT DON'T WORK. UPDATED 10/17/18*JB

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2016 FORD F-150. WHILE DRIVING 80 MPH, THE CHECK ENGINE WARNING INDICATOR ILLUMINATED AND THERE WERE ABNORMAL ROARING AND KNOCKING SOUNDS COMING FROM THE ENGINE. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO HIGHWAY FORD (18982 JOHNNIE B HALL MEMORIAL HWY, DERIDDER, LA 70634, (337) 462-5497) WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THERE WAS A LOOSE ELECTRICAL CONNECTOR IN THE ENGINE COMPARTMENT THAT WAS NOT SEATED CORRECTLY. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 56,000. *TT

THE VEHICLE HESITATES, IDLES ROUGHLY WHEN COLD AND MAKES A KNOCKING TYPE NOISE AT IDLE WHEN HOT. THE COOLANT LEVEL HAS GONE DOWN SUBSTANTIALLY DESPITE HAVING IT SERVICED RECENTLY. WE HAVE EXPERIENCED LARGE AMOUNTS OF WATER DRIPPING FROM THE TAIL PIPE ALONG WITH THE OCCASIONAL PUFF OF THICK SMOKE. THE VEHICLE MISFIRES AND IT HAS BEEN VERIFIED BY A SCAN TOOL (MY OWN AND FORDS). FORD'S TECHNICIANS HAVE VERIFIED THE CONCERN BUT HAVE TOLD US THAT WITHOUT A HARD FAULT, THEY ARE NOT ABLE TO LOOK INTO THE PROBLEM FURTHER. THIS ISSUE HAS BEEN BROUGHT TO THEIR ATTENTION SEVERAL TIMES WITH NO RESOLUTION. WHILE IT MAY BE RELATED OR UNRELATED, THE TRANSMISSION ALSO JERKS WHEN SLOWING DOWN AND HAS A TENDENCY TO LURCH FORWARD WHEN GOING FROM 3-2-1 GEARS. THIS HAS ALSO BEEN VERIFIED BY FORD AND THEY HAVE MADE TWO ATTEMPTS USING TSB 16-0015 TO RESOLVE WITHOUT ANY IMPROVEMENT.

ALMOST EXACTLY THE SAME EXPERIENCE AS INCIDENT NUMBERS 11090030, 11063919, AND 11048673. THERE MAY BE OTHERS, BUT, I DIDN'T GO ANY FURTHER. I WAS DRIVING ON A BRIDGE WITHOUT ANY SAFETY SHOULDERS AND THE VEHICLE SUDDENLY LOST ALL POWER, "HILL START ASSIST NOT AVAILABLE" INDICATOR CAME ON, "SERVICE ADVANCE TRAC" INDICATOR CAME ON, AND "SEE MANUAL" INDICATOR CAME ON WITH THE WRENCH SYMBOL. AFTER NEARLY BEING REAR-ENDED BY ANOTHER CAR, I WAS ABLE TO COAST TO AN OFF RAMP AND PULL OVER. THE TRUCK WAS SHAKING VIOLENTLY. I SHUT IT OFF AND THEN RESTARTED IT AND WAS ABLE TO GET BACK OVER THE BRIDGE BUT THEN THE SAME EXACT SCENARIO HAPPENED AGAIN ON THE OTHER SIDE. ON THE WAY HOME, IT HAPPENED A COUPLE MORE TIMES BUT I WAS ABLE TO GET IT HOME. I SCHEDULED A SERVICE APPOINTMENT AT A FORD DEALER TO TAKE THE TRUCK IN ON MONDAY....

TRUCK WAS IN PARK WITH THE ENGINE RUNNING. NOBODY WAS IN THE TRUCK WHICH WAS ON A SLIGHT INCLINE. IT WAS STANDING STILL IN THE BACK YARD WHILE I WAS TRYING TO GET THE GARAGE DOOR CLOSED. IT TOOK OFF GOING THROUGH A CHAINLINK FENCE, ACROSS A NEIGHBORS YARD, AND CAME TO REST ON A BANK ON THE OTHER SIDE OF THE NEIGHBORS YARD. THE FENCE AND BRUSH CAUSED SEVERAL HEAVY SCRATCHES TO THE TRUCK.

TRUCK WILL IDLE ROUGH AND STALL PERIODICALLY GIVING A CHECJ ENGINE LIGHT AND WHEN DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY, IN THE STREET OR MAKING TURNS ANY TIME THAT THE RPM IS CLOSE TO 500 (IDLE). MAKES WAITING FOR TURNS DANGEROUS AS THE TRUCK MY UNEXPECTEDLY TURN OFF WHILE MOVING. 3 DEALERS HAVE BEEN UNABLE TO RESOLVE THE ISSUE STARTED AT 29,000 MILES AND HAVE BEEN THROWN AROUND UNTIL 40,000 MILES NOW. THEY REFUSE TO ACKNOWLEDGE MY COMPLAINTS AND THIS TRUCK ISNT VERY SAFE TO DRIVE.

I HAD MY TRUCK TOWED TO AUTO FAIR FORD AND HAD TO HAVE THE FUEL PUMP REPLACED WITH $100 EXTENDED WARRANTY AND THE CAR IS A YEAR OLD. AFTER FIXING IT THEY WERE HAVING ISSUES WITH IT NOT STARTING AND CALLED FORD TO TROUBLE SHOOT THE ISSUE. TODAY 3/2/18 THEY CALLED TO SAY A MOUSE OR RODENT CHEWED THROUGH THE WIRING. I HAVE LIVED I'M MY HOME SINCE 1999 AND MANY CARS IN THE DRIVE WAY THIS HAS NEVER HAPPENED BEFORE. MY BROTHER SAID THE WIRING IS SOY BASED. I CALLED LIBERTY MUTUAL INSURANCE AND COMPREHENSIVE HAS A $500 DEDUCTIBLE. THEY WILL LOOK AT THE TRUCK 3/5/18 AT AUTO FAIR FORD IN MANCHESTER NH. I NOW HAVE TO PAY$600 TO A VEHICLE I HAVE OWNED LESS THEN 5 MONTHS TO AUTO FAIR FORD. SEEMS ODD THIS IS HAPPING ON A NEW VEHICLE

FOR THE LAST YEAR MY CAR HAVE BEEN LEAKING FUMES AND SMELLING OF CARBON MONOXIDE. I HAVE COMPLAINED TO MISSION VALLEY FORD, BIG VALLEY FORD AND ALL STAR FORD. WHEN I START THE VEHICLE THERE IS WHITE SMOKE AND A STRONG FUME. THEY SAID IT'S THE ECOBOOST. SECONDLY THE TURBO THEY SAY HAS GONE OUT ALREADY AT 87K MILES AND I BELIEVE THE SMELL AND THE TURBO IS CONNECTED.

WHILE DRIVING ON A BUSY HIGHWAY WITH NO WARNING MY F-150 LOST POWER. WHEN THIS HAPPENED THE DRIVE POWER DECREASED BY ABOUT 95%, AND WARNINGS APPEARED ON THE DASHBOARD. THESE WARNINGS INCLUDED: SERVICE ADVANCE TRAC, HILL DESCENT FAULT, SEE MANUAL, AIRBAG FAULT, AND THE SERVICE WRENCH. THE ENGINE IDLED ROUGHLY AND THE VEHICLE HAD TO BE TURNED OFF. WE RESTARTED AND THE SAME ISSUES OCCURRED SO WE PARKED THE VEHICLE.

VEHICLE STALL OUT WHILE DRIVING AND WONT START FOR A FEW MINUTES DUE DO THROTTLE BODY FORD FAILS TO RECALL..... MORE PEOPLE ARE COMPLAINING SAME THING HAPPENS TO THEM ON CARCOMPLAINS.COM..... FIRST TIME IT HAPPEN I TOOK IT TO DEALER THEY START THEY COULDN'T FIGURE OUT PROBLEM AND CHANGE THROTTLE BODY FOR ME. COUPLE WEEK PASS SAME THING STARTS HAPPENING AGAIN CURRENTLY AT THE DEALER.....

WHILE PULLING OUT OF MY WORK PARKING LOT ONTO THE MAIN ROAD, MY ENGINE LOST POWER AND MULTIPLE LIGHTS LIT UP ON THE DASHBOARD. I HAD TO COAST INTO THE MIDDLE LANE AND THEN OFF INTO THE POST OFFICE PARKING LOT TO AVOID TRAFFIC.

WAS DRIVING STRAIGHT DOWN A HIGHWAY. TRUCK WARNING LIGHTS STARTED APPEARING ON THE DASH HILL DESCENT CONTROL FAULT, HILL ASSIST FAULT, SERVICE ADVANCE TRAC. TURN SIGNALS WOULD NOT WORK AND GAS PEDAL WAS UNRESPONSIVE. TRUCK SLOWED TO ALMOST A COMPLETE STOP AND BEGAN SHAKING VIOLENTLY AS THE ENGINE WAS ABOUT TO DIE.

ENGINE LIGHT FLASHING AT 7,996 MILES. ON HIGHWAY TRAVELING 70MPH ENGINE BEGAN RUNNING VERY ROUGH AND BEGAN TO DECELERATE. ENGINE LIGHT BEGAN TO FLASH. DEALERSHIP AUTHORIZES LONG BLOCK ENGINE CHANGE. SERVICE: 172077D P0306 6049/42. TSB 17-0007 AND 17-2077.

ON THREE OCCASIONS MY TRUCK HAS LOST ALL POWER, ONCE IN A PARKING LOT AND TWICE WHILE CRUISING AT 45 MPH .OUTSIDE TEMPS 65 DEG. AND ROADS WERE SMOOTH. AIR BAG LIGHT, WRENCH ICON, SERVICE ADVANCE TRAC COME ON. ENGINE WILL REMAIN IDLING REGARDLESS OF GAS PEDAL POSITION.THE ENGINE IS RUNNING ON MAYBE 4 CYLS. AFTER THE ENGINE IS TURNED OFF AND RESTARTED IT WILL ACT NORMALLY. THIS TRUCK IS THE 3.5 ECOBOOST WITH 11,000 MILES ON IT AND HAS BEEN IN SERVICE FOR 18 MONTHS.

AS I WAS DRIVING ABOUT 40 MPH, THE TRUCK SUDDENLY DECELERATED TO ALMOST A STAND STILL. TWO MESSAGES APPEARED ON THE DASH BOARD INFO SYSTEM. SERVICE NEEDED FOR HILL ASSIST AND ADVANCE TRAC, OR SOMETHING SIMILAR. I HAD TO DRIVE HOME, HALF MILE, AT A WALKING PACE WHICH WAS AS FAST AS THE TRUCK WOULD GO. THERE WAS NO WARNING. THIS IS A DEADLY FLAW. HOW COULD YOU NOT HAVE FORD F150 IN YOUR DATABASE?

TRUCK LOST ENGINE POWER. TRUCK WAS STILL RUNNING, BUT PRESSING THE ACCELERATOR DID NOTHING. ELECTRICAL SYSTEM STILL FUNCTIONED (POWER STEERING AND LIGHTS) AND BRAKES WORKED NORMALLY. WHEN THIS OCCURRED, THE TRUCK STARTED DINGING, THE AIRBAG LIGHT LIT UP, AND THE PRODUCTIVITY SCREEN SHOWED A 'HILL DESCENT CONTROL DISABLED' ERROR MESSAGE, AIRBAG ERROR, OTHER ERRORS AND THE WRENCH ICON. ENGINE WAS STILL RUNNING, BUT IDLING VERY ROUGH, LIKE IT HAD DROPPED A CYLINDER, AND THE TRUCK WAS SHUDDERING AS IT WAS IDLING BOTH IN GEAR, AND IN PARK. RESUMED NORMAL OPS ON RESTART. DEALER REPLACE THROTTLE BODY UNDER TSB-16-0193 BUT THIS SHOULD BE ELEVATED TO A FULL RECALL

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2016 FORD F-150. WHILE DRIVING 35 MPH, THE VEHICLE LOST TOTAL POWER AS IT RUMBLED AND SHOOK. ALSO, VARIOUS WARNING INDICATORS ILLUMINATED, INCLUDING THE POWERTRAIN FAULT, STABILITY CONTROL, AIR BAG, AND CHECK SERVICE MANUAL. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE RUNNING BOARD FAILED TO RETRACT. THE CONTACT PULLED THE VEHICLE OVER TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD AND RESTARTED THE VEHICLE. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO FORD & LINCOLN OF SMITHTOWN (440 JERICHO TURNPIKE, ST JAMES, NY 11780(631) 265-2340), BUT THE CAUSE OF THE FAILURE COULD NOT BE DUPLICATED OR DIAGNOSED. WHEN THE CONTACT RETRIEVED THE VEHICLE SEVERAL HOURS LATER, THE FAILURE RECURRED AND THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED BACK TO THE DEALER. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE, BUT DID NOT ASSIST. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 6,000.

2016 F150 WITH THE 2.7L ECOBOOST RANDOMLY DIES AFTER STARTUP. SOMETIMES IT WILL DIE WHILE IN MOTION ALMOST CAUSING AN ACCIDENT. THERE'S NO STORED CODES FOR THE DEALER. IT'S BEEN IN THE SHOP 6 TIMES TOTAL. THE FIRST TIME THEY PUT A CRANKCASE VENT SENSOR AND THEN THE 2ND TIME SPARKPLUGS. IT'S DIES AND GONE INTO LIMP MODE MULTIPLE TIMES BUT THE DEALER CAN'T DUPLICATE THE PROBLEM SO THEY CAN'T FIX IT. IT STARTED AT 9,000 MILES AND IT NOW HAS 14,000 MILES. I'M PRETTY SURE IT'S THE THROTTLE BODY BUT THEY WON'T REPLACE IT WITHOUT A CODE. IT HAS HAPPENED RANDOMLY FROM MARCH 2017 UNTIL TODAY 8-13-17. I ALSO HAVE A RECORDING SAVED ON MY SNAP-ON SCAN TOOL OF THE PARAMETERS AT THE TIME IT WENT INTO LIMP MODE.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2016 FORD F-150. WHILE DRIVING 60 MPH, THE VEHICLE STALLED WITHOUT WARNING, COMPLETELY LOST POWER, AND HAD VERY LIMITED BRAKING FUNCTIONALITY. THE CONTACT WAS ABLE TO STOP AND RESTART THE VEHICLE. FORD OF MONROEVILLE, ALABAMA WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE AND REPLACED THE ABS AND BRAKE SENSORS, AND REPROGRAMMED THE VEHICLE; HOWEVER, THE FAILURE RECURRED AT LEAST SEVEN TIMES. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE ISSUE AND PROVIDED CASE NUMBER: CAS-12779235. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 8,558.

ENGINE CUTS OUT WITH ERROR LIGHTS ON DASH, NO THROTTLE RESPONSE OR POWER. THIS IS VERY DANGEROUS AS IT HAPPENED ON A BUSY INTERSTATE AT AROUND 70MPH. WE HAD TO GET THE VEHICLE TO THE SHOULDER WITHOUT POWER NARROWLY AVOIDING OTHER VEHICLES AND LARGE TRUCKS. THIS FAULT ENDANGERED THE LIFE OF MY FAMILY!! THEY HAVE TRIED TO REPAIR THIS VEHICLE ALREADY BY REPLACING THE THROTTLE PEDAL.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2016 FORD F-150. WHILE DRIVING AT ANY SPEED, THE VEHICLE MADE NOISES FROM THE ENGINE AND TRANSMISSION AREAS. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE VEHICLE CONSUMED TOO MUCH FUEL AND THE AIR CONDITIONING BLEW HOT AIR. ALSO, THE OIL LOW PRESSURE WARNING INDICATOR ILLUMINATED AND FLASHED OFF AND ON. THE CONTACT ALSO STATED THAT THE BRAKES SQUEAKED AND THE FRONT PASSENGER SIDE TIRE DEFLATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER (KOONS FORD IN STERLING, VA) FOR DIAGNOSTIC TESTING. THE DEALER FOUND NOTHING WRONG WITH THE VEHICLE; HOWEVER, THE FAILURES RECURRED SEVERAL TIMES. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE SAME DEALER SEVERAL TIMES AND, DURING ONE OF THE VISITS, THE ENGINE WAS REPLACED WITHOUT THE CONTACT'S CONSENT. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURES AND DID NOT ASSIST. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT COMPLETELY REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 40.

TAKATA RECALL THE ENGINE BLEW UP AFTER 3,400. SUCKED ALL THE OIL IN THE EXHAUST WHILE IT WAS IDLING IN DEALERSHIP PARKING LOT. CALLED ME UP TOLD MY ENGINE BLEW UP ON THEM. THERE IS 6 MONTH RUN OF BAD ENGINE AND FORD KNOWLY SOLD ME A TRUCK MADE DURING THOSE DATES.

ENGINE STALLS AND/OR DIES WHILE DRIVING. THIS HAS HAPPENED TO ME TWICE ON A NEW 2016 F-150. DURING NORMAL DRIVING, THE TRUCK MECHANICALLY SHUTS DOWN CAUSING A MAJOR SAFETY HAZARD TO ME AND OTHER DRIVERS ON THE ROAD. THIS IS NOT UNCOMMON IF YOU SEARCH ONLINE! THE FORD REPAIR SHOP CANNOT IDENTIFY THE ISSUE, THEY SAY.

ON 1/25/16, IN THE RAIN, AT 6 AM, I PULLED OUT FROM A SIDE STREET NEAR MY RESIDENCE ON TO A MAJOR ROAD AND WAS INCREASING SPEED. I TRAVELED ABOUT 150 YARDS AND WAS UP TO ABOUT 40 MPH. MY TRUCK SUDDENLY DECELERATED TO ABOUT 5 MPH VERY QUICKLY CAUSING MY CAR TO SKID IN THE RAIN. THERE WAS NO ACCIDENT SINCE TRAFFIC WAS LIGHT AT THE TIME, SO I PULLED INTO THE MEDIAN AND PUT THE TRUCK IN PARK TO SEE WHAT WAS HAPPENING AND I COULD NOT DISCOVER ANYTHING WRONG. I THEN PUT THE TRUCK IN GEAR AND TRIED TO ACCELERATE AGAIN BUT THE CAR WOULD SPEED UP TO ABOUT 15 MPH AND THEN DECELERATE VERY QUICKLY, ALMOST GIVING IT A BUCKING MOTION. AFTER A FEW SECONDS THE TRUCK SEEMED TO WANT TO DIE, IT WOULD MOVE AND THEN SEEM TO WANT TO STOP AND DIE, AND THEN...

WHILE DRIVING ABOUT 20 MPH THROUGH A RESIDENTIAL NEIGHBORHOOD, VEHICLE LURCHED AND JERKED WITH A LARGE THUD. THUD WAS ENGINE FAILING DUE TO NO OIL PRESSURE - OIL NOT GETTING TO ENGINE. LIMPED HOME, CAR NOT ABLE TO GO MORE THAN 30 MPH TO DRIVE TO DEALERSHIP. NOT SHIFTING BETWEEN GEARS. HAD WE BEEN ON HIGHWAY, MUCH BIGGER ISSUE COULD HAVE OCCURRED - WE WERE ABLE TO STOP SAFELY AS WE WERE IN OUR OWN NEIGHBORHOOD. FORD IS REPLACING ENGINE BUT [XXX] (SERVICE MANAGER AT WALKER FORD, CLEARWATER FLORIDA) HAS TOLD US THIS IS THE FOURTH 2016 F150 THAT HAS COME BACK TO THEIR DEALERSHIP FOR A FULL ENGINE REPLACEMENT, AND DECISION WAS MADE TO CONTINUE SELLING BECAUSE PERCENTAGE OF AFFECTED VEHICLES IS A GAMBLE. WE BOUGHT TRUCK 1/2/17, ENGINE FAILURE OCCURRED 1/26/17 AT ODOMETER READING OF 844 MILES. DEALERSHIP IN POSSESSION OF TRUCK SINCE 1/27/17. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO...

WHILE VEHICLE WAS IN MOTION. OPERATING OK AND THEN ENGINE STARTED TO SHUDDER AND CONTINUED TO DO SO. WEATHER WAS CLEAR 75 DEGREES AND SUN SHINE. - ENGINE LIGHT IS ON. ECOBOOST ENGINE WITH 4,200 MILES. I TURNED THE AC OFF STILL SHUDDERS. THIS HAS GONE ON NOW FOR 3 DAYS. I AM TAKING DO DEALER TOMORROW 28NOV2016.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 FORD F-150. WHILE THE VEHICLE WAS STATIONARY, FUMES ENTERED THE CABIN OF THE VEHICLE FROM THE AIR CONDITIONING SYSTEM. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE ISSUE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 17,000. UPDATED 01/05/2017*CT

THE TRUCK HAS HAD ISSUES WITH THE HILLASSIST FAILURE, THEN CHECK ENGINE LIGHT THEN WRENCH LIGHT CAUSING THE TRUCK TO GO FROM 45 MPH TO 2MPH WITHOUT NOTICE. THE THROTTLE BOTTLE ALSO WENT OUT ON THIS TRUCK CAUSING THE TRUCK TO GO FROM 45 MPH TO 2 MPH IN TRAFFIC, THIS IS THE FORD WRENCH LIGHT. ON TWO SEPERATE OCCASIONS, WHEN STARTING THE TRUCK AND RELEASING THE PARKING BRAKE, A PARKING BRAKE MALFUNCTION LIGHT FLASHES, THEN WHEN TRYING TO MOVE THE TRUCK INTO GEAR IT WILL MOVE FROM PARK TO DRIVE TO REVERSE, BUT WILL NOT MOVE. PLEASE CONTACT ME ASAP. I HAVE A DETAILED LIST OF DATES AND OCCURANCES ALONG WITH ALL EMAIL CONVERSATIONS WITH FORD. FORD SOES NOT BELIEVE THIS IS A PROBLEM AND SEEMS TO IGNORE THE SAFETY CONCERNS.

WHILE DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY AT APPROX. 60MPH MY FORD 2016 F150 3.5L V6 LURCHED AND STALLED, EXPERIENCING A COMPLETE LOSS OF POWER, THROTTLE CONTROL AND ACCELERATION. THIS WAS THE 7TH THROTTLE MALFUNCTION MY F150 HAS EXPERIENCED IN THE PAST 5 MONTHS. EACH MALFUNCTION EXACTLY THE SAME. SINCE I AM NOW FORCED TO ONLY TRAVEL IN THE FAR RIGHT LANES FOR SAFETY, I HAD ENOUGH REMAINING MOMENTUM TO VEER MY F150 OFF OF THE HIGHWAY AND BRING IT TO A COMPLETE STOP. WITH SOME EFFORT MY F150 STRUGGLED BUT WAS ABLE TO RESTART AND TRAVELING A LOW SPEEDS I MADE IT SAFELY HOME. DUE TO THE DANGEROUS NATURE OF THIS INCIDENT I HAVE TAKEN MY F150 TO THE DEALERSHIP TWICE SO FAR. FORD BELIEVES THE ISSUE IS THE ELECTRONIC THROTTLE BODY, BUT THEY HAVE BEEN UNABLE TO FIX THE PROBLEM. MOST RECENTLY I RECEIVED MY F150 FROM THE DEALER ONLY...

WHILE DRIVING ON A HIGHWAY, VEHICLE'S LOW ENGINE OIL PRESSURE ILLUMINATED, VEHICLE'S SPEED DROPPED TO COASTING LEVEL AND HAD TO PULL TO SIDE OF HIGHWAY WITH NO ABILITY TO ACCELERATE. THIS IS AN EXTREMELY DANGEROUS SITUATION WHERE THERE IS LOSS OF POWER AND THE ENGINE WOULD NOT RESTART. OIL LEVEL WAS CHECKED AND WAS NEAR THE HIGH MARK. THE VEHICLE HAS 316 MILES ON IT AND HAD TO BE TOWED.

LOSS OF THROTTLE RESPONSE WHILE DRIVING AROUND 25 MPH, CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON AND THE ENGINE WAS IDLING ROUGH. WAS ABLE TO DRIFT OVER TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD. TURNED ENGINE OFF THEN ON WITH NO CHANGE, TURNED OFF THEN ON AGAIN AND THROTTLE WORKED NORMALLY BUT CHECK ENGINE LIGHT STAYED ON. DROVE RIGHT TO THE DEALER WHO DETERMINED IT WAS A BAD THROTTLE BODY.

2016 FORD F-150 2.7L ECOBOOST MODEL WITH ONLY 3,928 MILES. THIS IS THE THIRD TIME ENGINE HAS CUT OFF ON ME WHILE DRIVING/ACCELERATING! WAS TAKING A LEFT TURN FROM SIDE ROAD ONTO MAIN ROAD. WHILE ACCELERATING IN THE TURN, ENGINE STARTED STUTTERING A FEW TIMES (RPMS WOULD DIP) AND THEN IT STALLED OUT. LUCKILY I WAS ABLE TO COMPLETE MY LEFT HAND TURN WITHOUT GETTING HITTING BY ONCOMING TRAFFIC AND WAS ABLE TO PULL OVER IMMEDIATELY. THIS TIME AROUND THE ENGINE WOULD NOT RESTART. HAD TO CALL FORD'S ROADSIDE ASSISTANCE TO GET TOWED TO NEAREST DEALERSHIP. THE LAST TWO INSTANCES THE DEALER COULD NOT PULL A CODE OR DIAGNOSE WHAT WAS WRONG SO NOTHING WAS DONE. THIS TIME THE DEALERSHIP HAS A DEAD TRUCK ON ARRIVAL SO THEY CAN'T TELL ME THAT THERE IS NOTHING WRONG WITH IT (SERVICE AND DIAGNOSTICS HAS YET TO BE COMPLETED AT THE TIME OF...

DRIVING ON INTERSTATE AT APPROXIMATELY A STEADY 60 MPH. WITHOUT WARNING POWER LOSS AND NO RESPONSE TO ACCELERATOR. ERROR CODE P2111

VEHICLE LOOSES POWER WITHOUT WARNING DURING ROUTINE DRIVING AND CANNOT BE RECOVERED. WARNINGS ON DASHBOARD DISPLAY SHOW "SERVICE ADVANCETRAC" AND "HILL START ASSIST" ALONG WITH ALL ENGINE WARNING LIGHTS. PRESSING DOWN ON GAS PEDAL DOES NOTHING, MUST PULL OVER AND TURN OFF IGNITION AND TURN BACK ON TO RESTORE POWER. HAPPENS NUMEROUS TIMES AND RANDOMLY. OCCURRED WHEN DRIVING ON HIGHWAY AT 70MPH AND WHILE ON SIDE STREETS AT 45MPH. BELOW IS A LINK TO VIDEO OF THE BEHAVIOR. VEHICLE IS 2016 FORD F150 PURCHASED BRAND NEW WITH NO PREVIOUS ISSUES AND 7700 MILES. HTTPS://1DRV.MS/F/S!AHZQ4P0K1FQII7U1MOY63ITYROIQFG

WHILE TRAVELING ON THE INTERSTATE LEVEL TERRAIN AND A STATIONARY CRUISE AT 70 MPH, THE WRENCH ICON AND CHECK ENGINE LIGHT APPEARED WITH A MESSAGE TO "SEE MANUAL" AT THE SAME TIME THE ENGINE BECAME UNRESPONSIVE TO ACCELERATOR PEDAL INPUT. THE LIMP HOME MODE WAS NOT WORKING AND WE COULD NOT GET THE TRUCK MOVING AGAIN AFTER STOPPED. I WAS ABLE TO SHUT THE IGNITION OFF FOR ABOUT 2 MIN WHILE I LOOKED UP THE WARNING LIGHTS IN THE MANUAL (ONLY STATED TO SEE DEALER IMMEADIATLY) AFTERWARDS WE WERE ABLE TO START AND DRIVE THE TRUCK TO THE NEXT EXIT AND HOME APPROXIMATELY 4 MILES. THIS WAS A VERY DANGEROUS ENCOUNTER AND WERE ALMOST HIT BY 2 SEMI TRUCKS WHILE TRYING TO COAST OVER TO THE SHOULDER. WE HAVE OWNED THE VEHICLE SINCE NEW AND HAD 8,827 MILES AT THE TIME OF THE SHUT DOWN.

WAS STOPPED AT RED LIGHT IN GREENSBORO NC. LIGHT TURNED GREEN AND I STARTED TO DRIVE STRAIGHT THROUGH THE INTERSECTION WHEN THERE WAS A COMPLETE LOSS OF THROTTLE RESPONSE. I HAD TO FINISH GOING THROUGH THE INTERSECTION BY MOMENTUM OF THE VEHICLE AND GRAVITY SINCE THERE WAS NO POWER. FORTUNATELY THERE WAS NO ONE ELSE AT THE INTERSECTION OR I'M SURE I WOULD HAVE BEEN HIT. WAS TOLD BY LOCAL FORD DEALER, GREEN FORD, PROBLEM WAS A DEFECTIVE "THROTTLE BODY". 2ND FORD VEHICLE I HAVE BEEN IN, IN LESS THAN A MONTH, THAT THIS HAS HAPPENED (2015 F150-SAME DEFECT - THROTTLE BODY). HUGE CONCERN FOR SAFETY OF THOSE OF US WHO DRIVE FORDS.

WHILE DRIVING THE VEHICLE 157 MILES FROM HOME I HAD THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON AND VEHICLE HAD NO THROTTLE RESPONSE. THE VEHICLE WOULD ONLY MOVE ABOUT 3-5 MILES PER HOUR. VERY DANGEROUS WAS CROSSING A LARGE BUSY INTERSECTION ALMOST GOT HIT BUT ANOTHER VEHICLE.

SECOND TIME ENGINE STALLED WHILE DRIVING IN LESS THAN 2 WEEKS!!! 2016 FORD F-150 XLT 2.7L ECO-BOOST MODEL. THIS IS THE SECOND TIME THE ENGINE HAS STALLED AND SHUT OFF DURING DRIVING! NOT EVEN 3,600 MILES ON IT YET. TYPICAL STOP AND GO TRAFFIC DURING RUSH HOUR. WENT TO ACCELERATE AFTER ROLLING ALONG WITH TRAFFIC (<10 MPH) AND NOTHING HAPPENS. TACHOMETER STAYS AT AROUND 500 RPM AND DOES NOT GO ANYWHERE. SINCE THIS WAS THE SECOND TIME THIS HAS HAPPEN WITHIN THE LAST 2 WEEKS SO I WASN'T TOO SURPRISED THIS TIME AROUND. I PUT IT IN NEUTRAL AND SHUT OFF IGNITION AND TRY CRANKING IT. RPMS WOULD BARELY STUTTER AROUND 400-500 RPM AND WOULD NOT STAY ON. TRIED A FEW MORE ATTEMPTS WHILE STILL ROLLING IN NEUTRAL. I HAD TO BRAKE TO A STOP, PUT IT IN PARK, AND HAD ATTEMPTED TO CRANK IT SEVERAL MORE TIMES UNTIL IT...

DRIVING DOWN THE HIGHWAY, DOING ABOUT 60 TO 65 MPH, NOTICED THAT I WAS SLOWING DOWN SLIGHTLY, WENT TO GIVE IT MORE GAS, LOOKED DOWN AT THE DASHBOARD AND REALIZED THAT THE ENGINE WASN'T ON (NO RPMS ON TACHOMETER). THE SCREEN ON THE DASHBOARD HAD A SERVICE WARNING FOR THE PARKING BRAKE WITH A LIGHTNING BOLT IDIOT LIGHT ON (NOT SURE WHAT IT WAS, DIDN'T GET THE CHANCE TO LOOK IN THE MANUAL). I DON'T KNOW IF THE POWER STEERING/BRAKES WENT OUT, SINCE I WAS MOVING FAST ENOUGH TO STEER FAIRLY EASILY, AND I'M STRONG ENOUGH TO PRESS A BRAKE PEDAL. AFTER I GOT IT PULLED OVER, I PUT IT IN PARK, TRIED TO START IT AGAIN, WASN'T ABLE TO. CALLED ROADSIDE ASSISTANCE, GOT A TOW TRUCK. NOTICE THE SCREEN THAT HAS STUFF LIKE CLOCK, TEMP, DATE, MEDIA INFO WAS STUCK AT THE TIME IT SHUTOFF. NO OTHER ELECTRICAL SYSTEMS...

2016 FORD F-150 XLT 2.7L ECOBOOST AUTOMATIC MODEL WITH APPROXIMATELY 3,400 MILES. HAD ALREADY DRIVEN ABOUT 4-5 MILES WITH ENGINE ALREADY WARMED UP. DRY WEATHER AND ABOUT 69 DEGREES F OUTSIDE. CAME UP TO STOP LIGHT WITH OTHER VEHICLES AHEAD SLOWED DOWN. CAME TO A COMPLETE STOP AND THE AUTO-STOP FUNCTION ENGAGED AND THE ENGINE SHUT OFF. THE ROADWAY WAS FAIRLY LEVEL. WAITED APPROXIMATELY 20-30 SECONDS UNTIL LIGHT TURNED GREEN. TRAFFIC AHEAD STARTED TO MOVE FORWARD. I LET OFF THE BRAKES AND THE AUTO-START ENGAGED. I CONTINUED TO EASE OFF BRAKES AND ALLOWED THE TRUCK TO ROLL AND IDLE FORWARD WITH THE FLOW OF THE VEHICLES AHEAD. I THEN APPLIED MY FOOT ON THE ACCELERATOR AND BEGAN ACCELERATING WITH THE FLOW OF THE TRAFFIC. ALL OF A SUDDEN, THE ENGINE SHUTS OFF. AT FIRST I DIDN'T REALIZE IT HAD SHUT OFF AND WAS SURPRISED THAT I WASN'T ABLE TO ACCELERATE...

UNINTENDED ACCELERATION. ECOBOOST F-150. LESS THAN 200 MILES ON ODOMETER. AT STOP WITH FOOT ON BRAKE WHOLE TIME, VEHICLE DID NOT MOVE. ENGINE REVVED UP, THEN SETTLED DOWN, REVVED AGAIN, SETTLED DOWN, THEN REVVED VERY HIGH, REAR TIRE SPINNING UNTIL IGNITION WAS TURNED OFF.

THROTTLE BODY FAILURE WHILE DRIVING AT 75 MPH CAUSING VEHICLE TO SHUT DOWN IN HIGH-SPEED TRAFFIC [FAILURE DEFINED BY DEALER SERVICE PERSON].

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2016 FORD F-150. WHILE DRIVING 65 MPH, THE VEHICLE STALLED AND THE CHECK ENGINE AND TRACTION CONTROL WARNING LIGHTS ILLUMINATED. THE CONTACT PULLED THE VEHICLE OVER TO THE ROADSIDE AND WAS ABLE TO START IT AFTER MULTIPLE ATTEMPTS. THE FAILURE RECURRED INTERMITTENTLY. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE THROTTLE BODY FAILED AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 9,300.

SO I'VE GOT 16,000 MILES ON MY NEW 2016 F150 TRUCK. LAST WEEK I WAS CRUISING DOWN THE HIGHWAY IN THE FAST LANE WHEN ALL OF A SUDDEN THE TRUCK SHUDDERS THEN LOSES ALL DRIVETRAIN POWER. THE ENGINE WAS STILL ON BUT ONLY OPERATING AT BTWN 600 AND 800 RPMS BUT THE ACCELERATOR WAS UNRESPONSIVE. WAS NO FUN TRYING TO MAKE IT TO THE SHOULDER WITH NO POWER. ONE WEEK LATER, SAME THING TWICE ON MY WAY HOME FROM WORK. CALLED THE DEALER AND THEY DIDN'T SEEM OVERLY CONCERNED THAT MY NEW TRUCK WAS STRANDING ME IN THE FAST LANE WITH NO POWER. THEY SAID BRING IT IN AT THE END OF THE WEEK AND WE'LL TAKE A LOOK AT IT. SO I START RESEARCHING THE PROBLEM AND CAN ONLY FIND RELATED ARTICLES FROM AROUND 2012 WHEN FORD WAS HAVING PROBLEMS WITH HUMIDITY IN ITS NEW ECOBOOST ENGINES. I LIVE...

MY 2016 F150 HAS ADAPTIVE CRUISE CONTROL ("ACC") THAT APPLIES BRAKES IN THE EVENT A VEHICLE IS DETECTED IN LANE AHEAD IN ORDER TO MATCH SPEED AND MAINTAIN SAFE DISTANCE. F150 ALSO HAS COLLISION AVOIDANCE SYSTEM THAT INCREASES SENSITIVITY OF BRAKES IF IMMINENT COLLISION IS DETECTED. 2015 FORD F150 HAS BEEN SUBJECT TO A RECALL (NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 15V614000) TO FIX PROBLEMS WITH ACC - THE ACC MAY FALSELY DETECT AN OBSTACLE IN ITS PATH AND MAY UNEXPECTEDLY APPLY THE BRAKES INCREASING THE RISK OF A REAR-END COLLISION FROM A FOLLOWING VEHICLE. MY 2016 F150 WAS BUILT AFTER THE DATE COVERED BY THE RECALL HOWEVER IT EXHIBITS THE EXACT PROBLEM DESCRIBED IN THE RECALL I.E. THE PROBLEM CONTINUES TO EXIST WITH FORD'S ACC SYSTEM AND THE RECALL WAS INSUFFICIENT. IN MY CASE, ON FOUR SEPARATE OCCASIONS FROM 3/19 THROUGH 3/26/2016 THE ACC SYSTEM ACTIVATED UNEXPECTEDLY AND FOR NO REASON, CAUSING...
