2011 FORD F-150 Complaints

2011 F150 XLT 4X4 REAR SLIP YOKE CLUNK. MY YOKE CLUNKS ON ACCELERATION EITHER FAST OR SLOW.

I AM HAVING A SHIFTING PROBLEM LOOKED UP VIN ON NHTSA AND SEEN ONE RECALL AND VEHICLE IS DOING THE EXACT SAME THING DESCRIBED WHILE IN MOTION .NHTSA 19V075 OR MANUFACTURES CODE 19S07

UPON HARD ACCELERATION, WHILE TRYING TO PASS A VEHICLE, THE VEHICLE SHUDDERS, SHAKES AND STALLS. THE MPH GOES DOWN AND DOWN EVEN IF PRESSING THE GAS PEDAL. I MUST PULL OVER, PUT THE TRUCK IN PARK AND TURN OFF THE TRUCK. AVOIDING A HEAD ON COLLISION IS DIFFICULT WHEN THIS HAPPENS. AFTER RESTARTING THE TRUCK, THE ENGINE LIGHT THEN COMES ON. THIS HAS HAPPENED ON FOUR DIFFERENT OCCASIONS. THE GAS MILEAGE IS NOW INACCURATE AND IT APPEARS THAT THE "MILES TO EMPTY" DOES NOT MATCH THE MILES DRIVEN. RIVERTOWN FORD (COLUMBUS, GA) CLAIMS TO HAVE NO KNOWLEDGE OF THIS TYPE OF SITUATION. SPARK PLUGS & BOOTS WERE SAID TO BE THE CAUSE THE FIRST TIME ON 6/2/18. THE 2ND TIME 12/12/18, THE "INTERCOOLER SHIELD WAS INSTALLED & PCM REPROGRAMMED" -- I WAS PROMISED THIS WAS THE 100% FIX. AS OF 2/28/20, RIVERTOWN ADVISES THEIR FIX IS OUT OF WARRANTY AND NOW REQUIRES $650 FOR "ENGINE TEAR DOWN REQUIRED TO DETERMINE POINT OF FAILURE".

VEHICLE WAS DESIGNED WITH STEERING ANGLE SENSOR INSIDE THE STEERING GEAR. SENSOR HAS FAILED AND IS NOT SERVICEABLE AND WILL COST $2200 FOR REPAIR. SINCE THE SENSOR HAS FAILED THE ENTIRE VEHICLE STABILITY CONTROL SYSTEM IS DISABLED CAUSING A MAJOR SAFETY CONCERN. FORD USED THIS DESIGN FROM 11/03/10 TO 01/03/11. THIS DESIGN WAS REPLACED WITH ONE WHICH PLACES THE SENSOR IN THE STEERING COLUMN FOR EASY REPLACEMENT. I HAVE CONTACTED FORD FOR REPAIR ASSISTANCE AND SO FAR ALL CLAIMS HAVE BEEN DENIED.

I HAD FORD DEALER PREFORM SOFTWARE UPDATE FOR THE LAST RECALL. THIS HAD MADE THE PROBLEM WORSE. I HAVE ASK THE DEALER AND THE TOLD ME IT WAS MAY ISSUE. I KEEP GETTING ERROR CODE P0270 WHEN THIS HAPPENS.

BOTH OF THE COILS IN THE FRONT STRUT SUSPENSION ARE BROKEN. REPAIR SHOP SAYS F-150'S ARE NOTORIOUS FOR THIS.

MY FORD F150 IS SUDDENLY DOWNSHIFTING TO A LOWER GEAR WHILE ON THE FREEWAY. I CALLED THE FORD DEALERSHIP IN ROSEVILLE CA AND THEY PROCEEDED TO TELL ME THAT THEY DO NOT FIX THIS ISSUE ON THE WEEKENDS AT ALL. THIS IS TRULY INCONVENIENT TO THE CUSTOMERS.
