The contact's spouse owns a 2015 Ford F-150. The contact stated that on two occasions when the vehicle was taken to a dealer for an oil change, the mechanic observed an oil leak coming from the oil pan. The mechanic diagnosed the vehicle and determined that the oil pan was made of plastic and during expansion, the seal failed perform properly. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The failure mileage was 180,000. The contact is asking if this becomes a recall will the manufacturer issue a refund?

Without any warning signals or indications the fan blower has stopped working. It became a real safety hazard when I needed to defog my windshield and there was no air flow coming out of my vents. No warning, no signal. My windshield had fogged over and I had zero ability to defog due to not having any available airflow. Major safety issue!!

The contact owns a 2015 Ford F-150. The contact stated while driving at a undisclosed speed the contact noticed a failure when he attempted to engage the brake gear no warning light illuminated. The vehicle was taken to the independent mechanic where the vehicle was diagnosed as a failure with the master cylinder which needed to be repaired. The vehicle was repaired. The dealer was not contacted. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 32,000. The VIN was not included.

The vehicle has been sent in for a loud passenger side noise while motor is started and driving. The smell of burnt oil was also an issue coming from the passenger side. Took it in and the mechanic noticed my valve cover (passenger side) is cracked. Cannot order new ones as they are on back order. The driver side has limited quantities with a wait time, and the passenger side valve covers have 0 in stock online and at the dealerships. The smell and smoke is getting progressively worse as there is no option to replace valve covers.

Due to an occurrence of other vehicles back windows blowing out dealer unplugged part of rear window defroster. Now several years later the defroster across entire back window does not work. Since I am now out of waranty and extended waranty this repair would come out of my pocket. Dealer should have replaced faulty electronics in rear defroster/window at some point, not just unplugged it.

Chech engine light keeps coming on. Dealer said it was an evap canister issue, I told them warning had come on prior for check fuel fill cap. (Capless). Said they needed to replace purge cylinoid. So as I'm paying $500 for the repair, I'm told this might not fix the issue. What? Started with small evap leak. And fuel door codes. That only came on at 1/4 tank used. Now it's a large leak that comes on every time I start the engine. And I got the check fuel fill door warning again. I've done every trick listed on forums to clean and lubricate the fuel fill door, it did help for a while but as stated above problem is now much worse. Dealer should know how to fix this issue once and for all. Forums note that this is a common problem with no quick solution.
