2014 FORD F-150 Complaints

FAILED MASTER CYLINDER DUMPED ALL BRAKE FLUID INTO BOOSTER, RESULTING IN COMPLETE LOSS OF BRAKING. ONLY THE PARKING BRAKES STILL WORK, AND THEY PERFORM TERRIBLY. OCCURRED WITHOUT NOTICE DURING HIGHWAY DRIVING.

JIM HUDSON FORD (1201 W MAIN ST, LEXINGTON, SC 29072, (803) 359-4114) ADVISED THE CONTACT TO CALL THE MANUFACTURER TO BE ADDED TO THE LIST FOR AN UNKNOWN RECALL.

IN SEPTEMBER OF 2016, I PULLED INTO DELACY FORD IN ELMA, NEW YORK. I WAS THERE TO INFORM THE DEALERSHIP THAT THE REAR SLIDING WINDOW DEFROSTER WAS NOT WORKING. AFTER SHUTTING OF THE VEHICLE, AND EXITING THE VEHICLE, ONE THIRD OF THE WINDOW BLEW UP. I WAS INFORMED THAT APPARENTLY FORD WAS HAVING A PROBLEM WITH THOSE WINDOWS. THE WINDOW WAS REPLACED UNDER WARRANTY AT NO COST WELL FOR THE LAST YEAR I HAVE BEEN HAVING PROBLEMS WITH THE REAR DEFROSTER. IT IS NOT WORKING. APPARENTLY THIS IS A VERY COMMON PROBLEM WITH THESE WINDOWS. THEY WOULD NOT REPLACE IT UNLESS I PAID FOR IT. $1800. IF THERE IS SUCH A PROBLEM WITH THESE WINDOWS WHY IS THERE NOT A RECALL ??

WHILE DRIVING AT 35 MPH ON A SMOOTH ROAD ON A 30 DAY A LOUD NOISE WAS HEARD. THE BACK REAR DRIVER SIDE WINDOW PANEL OF THE REAR SLIDING WINDOW SHATTERED. THE GLASS DID STAY IN POSITION UNTIL IT COULD BE TAPED BY THE DEALERSHIP. THE REAR DEFROST / MIRROR HEAT WAS ON AT THE TIME. THIS CREATED AN UNSAFE CONDITION FOR MY REAR FACING 4 MONTH OLD CHILD BEHIND THE DRIVER SEAT AND 3 YEAR OLD CHILD BEHIND THE PASSENGER SEAT. THIS IS THE 2ND REAR WINDOW FOR THIS TRUCK. THE FIRST REAR WINDOW THE DEFROST SYSTEM QUIT WORKING. THE DEALERSHIP TOLD ME THIS IS A COMMON ISSUE. I HAD AN EXTENDED WARRANTY AND THEY WILL BE REPLACING THE WINDOW.

MY PASSENGER REAR WINDOW EXPLODED AND BROKE AFTER THE REAR DEFROSTER WAS ACTIVATED. THE VEHICLE WAS BEING DRIVEN ON THE ROAD WHEN THIS OCCURRED.

ALL THE SUDDEN I WAS JUST DRIVING AND THE BACK WINDOW ON THE RIGHT SHATTERED. IT IS COLD OUTSIDE AND I HAD THE DEFROSTERS ON BUT I GOOGLED THIS AND IT HAS HAPPENED TO MANY OTHER FORD 150 TRUCKS MY YEAR. I NOW HAVE TO REPLACE THE WINDOW. IT SCARED ME TO DEATH WHEN IT SHATTERED THAT I ALMOST CRASHED.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 FORD F-150. WHILE DRIVING 65 MPH, THE VEHICLE MADE ABNORMAL NOISES. THE CONTACT PULLED OVER TO RESTART THE VEHICLE. ONCE THE VEHICLE WAS RESTARTED, ANTI-FREEZE FLUID LEAKED OUT. THERE WERE NO WARNING INDICATORS ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO JAMES HODGE FORD LINCOLN (1200 N MAIN ST, MUSKOGEE, OK 74401, (918) 517-8370) WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE WATER PUMP NEEDED TO BE REPAIRED. THE CONTACT SCHEDULED A REPAIR APPOINTMENT. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 67,000. THE VIN WAS NOT AVAILABLE.

WHEN I WAS DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD THE BACK WINDOW PANEL SHATTERED FOR NO APPARENT REASON.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 FORD F-150. WHILE THE VEHICLE WAS ENGAGED IN PARK, IT ROLLED AWAY ON ITS OWN. THE CONTACT HAD TO GET INSIDE THE VEHICLE TO DEPRESS THE BRAKE PEDAL AND ENGAGE THE EMERGENCY BRAKE TO STOP THE VEHICLE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT TAKEN TO A DEALER OR INDEPENDENT MECHANIC FOR DIAGNOSTIC TESTING OR REPAIRS. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 44,000.

BEFORE ENTERING THE VEHICLE I USED THE FACTORY REMOTE START OPTION. UPON ENTERING THE VEHICLE I WAS PREPARING TO DEPART FROM THE PARKING SPACE. MYSELF AND THE OTHER OCCUPANT OF THE VEHICLE HEARD A LOUD "BANG". UPON LOOKING TOWARDS THE REAR OF THE VEHICLE IT WAS NOTICED THAT THE REAR WINDOW HAD SHATTERED. AT THIS POINT IT WAS STILL CRACKLING AS IT HAD JUST HAPPENED. I THEN EXITED THE VEHICLE AND INSPECTED THE WINDOW FROM THE OUTSIDE OF THE VEHICLE AND DID NOT FIND ANY EVIDENCE OF IMPACT. UPON FURTHER RESEARCH AND INVESTIGATION THIS IS A COMMON ISSUE. IT IS FROM THE WAY THE WINDOW IS MADE IN A PLASTIC HOUSING, WHEN THE REAR DEFROSTER COMES ON IT HEATS THE GLASS, AND THE GLASS HAS NO ROOM FOR EXPANSION AND IT CAUSES IT TO SHATTER. OUTSIDE TEMPERATURE WAS 22 DEGREES F.
