2014 FORD F-150 Complaints

Steering wheel began erratic movement from right to left causing vehicle to swerve in a deadly fashion. Steering wheel continues to whip from right to left while sitting still on side of road. Vehicle cannot be safely driven at any speed without the risk of losing control.

The contact owns a 2014 Ford F-150. The contact stated while driving approximately 50 MPH, the transmission unexpectedly shifted to first gear. The contact stated that several unknown warning lights were illuminated. The vehicle was previously taken to the local dealer and repaired under NHTSA Campaign Number: 24V444000 (Power Train); however, the failure recurred. The vehicle was taken to the local dealer, where it was diagnosed that the lead frame wiring harness needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was contacted and referred to the dealer. The approximate failure mileage was 85,000.

While driving at highway speed of 55mph, the vehicle went into limp mode. Large gear icon came on the dash, speedometer went out as well as mileage indicator. The vehicle lost almost all power and started to slow rapidly. Pressing all the way down on the gas made the truck go maybe 30mph as a guess. This was a very dangerous situation as there was no where to pull over and cars were coming up behind me quickly. I finally was able to get off an exit ramp and pull over. After restarting the vehicle it moved properly. I scanned the vehicle and received the output speed shaft sensor fault code P0721 and P0722. There is a recall for this problem, but since I proactively brought my truck into Ford in July, all they did was a reprogram instead of fixing the actual cause of this, which is the lead frame in the transmission. Had I waited to bring my truck in for recall until those codes were thrown they would have fixed it. So now I’m stuck with a dangerous vehicle unless I pay for something Ford knew was already a problem.

Bushing that connects transmission gear change that goes from the shifting lever to the transmission had the bushing at the shifting lever disintegrate. This caused the shifting cable to come loose from the shifting lever and therefore once the shifting lever was placed in Park, it was actually not in park. Repair is to replace the bushing in the shifting lever where it connects to the column shifting handle/lever. This could cause the truck to roll back into the street or other cars depending on where it was parked. Total time to repair was about 1/2 hour. Dealer did not have any parts to repair this bushing nor did they have any reports of recalls. This bushing looks very similar the bushing used in the Fusion recall.

Back up camera does not work more than it does. Just blank blue screen. Sometimes the screen says something like Rearview camera not available. Most of the time it says nothing. If it is on, it's very bad picture w/alot of static lines in it. This problem started in 2015 and steady got worse through the years.

It is 2014 F150 platinum it has a recall on the transmission. I took it in. They programmed it. I left with it. It was worse. and said that they had to get my truck was there for over a month and a half after the part was put on it. The transformation was worse now it’s back in the shop again for another two weeks. They’re telling me I need a new transmission. Anybody with common sense would know that if you’re driving 60 to 70 miles an hour and your truck shifts from six gear to first gear it’s going to tear something up in the transmission. I got it out and it was hard shifting out of first and the second out of fifth and the sixth and reverse was whining. All I’m asking for is help they want me to pay $6600 for a new transmission that I don’t have I’m on disability. Please help

Reference Tracking # 11622306. I purchased my used F150 with 52,956 miles on 1/3/2020. Shortly after, I would occasionally notice an unusual gear downshift. Upon receiving Ford Recall 24S37 (NHTSA 24V444000) update for the powertrain control module, the check engine lite (CEL) came on. I called the Ford Recall ph#, and they told me to continue to work with the dealership that performed the update. Several times I returned to the dealership, they would reset it with diagnostics, yet repeatedly the P0299 code would return each time. Prior to the CEL coming on, the CEL was preceded by a stall on acceleration on small hill inclines, and worsened fuel mileage, and typically after towing my trailer. These things didn't occur before the update was installed. (Attachments)
