2024 FORD F-150 Complaints

Undetermined what part failed I believe maybe an update. The truck lost all power and began to shift to neutral position at 40 mph on the highway. I was forced to get on the axis road. At 5mph the truck shifted violently to park. Dealership is working on it. The event was recorded on video and pictures. Wrench light showing

Anti lock Brake Fault and disabled Hill Start assist failure Collision waring system failure All of these occurred while driving. Luckily I was able to move the vehicle of the road and was able to avoid any accidents.

I purchased a new 2024 Ford F-150 on August 31, 2024, and just six weeks later, on October 19, 2024, the entire left front suspension failed while I was driving at 50-55 MPH. The truck suddenly and unexpectedly took a hard left and I nearly lost control of the vehicle. It was incredibly difficult to maintain control of the truck as it swerved dangerously, but I managed to guide it to the shoulder and called for a tow to the dealership where I bought it. I discovered the left front tire and rim had detached and the entire front suspension pulled out of the truck. The left front tire was positioned sideways under the truck. My concern is there's potential issues stemming from what appears to be a failure to properly torque the top control arm at the factory that are being covered up. I was told that Ford recalled some Rangers and Broncos after it was discovered the nut on the left upper control arm was either missing or not properly torqued in the plant. To my knowledge there has not been a recall on the F150 models. If the incident had occurred on the interstate or while meeting an oncoming vehicle, I have no doubt there would have been serious injuries or fatalities involved. The were no warning signs or symptoms prior to the incident occurring. The truck remained at the dealership in repair until November 20th.

The cameras are of poor quality and are often blurry, including the 360 view. Cleaning the lenses does does resolve the issue.

The vehicle moved forward with the shifter set in reverse. My safety and the safety of others was put at risk because the vehicle moved in the opposite direction from that indicated both by the position of the shifter and by the audible backup warning. Pressing the accelerator caused the vehicle to move forward instead of reverse. This problem has not yet been reported to manufacturer. There were no warning lamps or messages. All indicators were normal. This occurred while parallel parking in a tight space between two cars on the left side of the road. I backed in as far as I could go to the car behind, then turned the wheel and pulled in close to the car in front. I repeated the back and forth two more times to align the vehicle with the curb. At this point the shifter was in drive position and vehicle was close to the car in front. I shifted to reverse and gently pressed the accelerator to move away from the car in front. Instead, the vehicle moved forward and bumped the car in front. I applied the brake, shifted to park, then shifted to reverse. Again, the vehicle moved forward and bumped the car in front. I applied the brake and shifted into drive, then into reverse. Again the vehicle moved forward. The audible backup warning could be heard whenever the shifter was in reverse, and it stopped when taken out of reverse. At this point I turned off the vehicle. I started it again about a minute later. At this point it shifted correctly. I shifted to reverse and the vehicle moved backward as expected. I was able to finish parking as usual.
