2014 FORD F-150 Complaints

3.5 ECO BOOST ENGINE HAS A DEAD SPOT IN IT. MASH ON THE GAS PEDAL AND DOESN'T DO ANYTHING, THEN SPRINTS OFF. IT HAS DONE THIS SEVERAL TIMES. ALSO THERE IS A SMALL ROAR AT TIMES COMING FROM LEFT SIDE OF ENGINE WHEN ACCELERATING. THE SPRINTING WILL OCCUR OTHER TIMES WHEN ACCELERATING. HAVEN'T TAKEN IT BACK TO DEALER BUT I'M GOING TO. *TR

VEHICLE WAS STOPPED AT A RED LIGHT WITH THE OPERATOR'S FOOT ON THE BAKE, VEHICLE BEGAN TO ACCELERATE UNINTENTIONALLY, OPERATOR WAS UNABLE TO STOP AND AVOID COLLISION OF CAR IN FRONT OF TRUCK UNTIL THE VEHICLE WAS PLACED IN PARK. THIS PREVENTED A COLLISION FROM OCCURRING. INCIDENT OCCURRED A SECOND TIME ON 1/22/2015 WHEN VEHICLE WAS STOPPED AT INTERSECTION. TRUCK NARROWLY MISSED ONCOMING TRAFFIC BEFORE TRANSMISSION WAS FORCED BY OPERATOR INTO "PARK". CONTINUING TO APPLY PRESSURE ON THE BRAKES AND PUMPING THE BRAKES WERE NOT SUCCESSFUL IN STOPPING THE ACCELERATION OF THE VEHICLE. *TR
