2014 FORD F-150 Complaints

I was driving down the road and vehicle suddenly dropped in to third gear, the speedometer was indicating 0 MPH, a wrench was displayed on my center screen and the check engine light came on.

My transmission had been acting funny earlier in the day. Like not changing gears correctly. Later in the day, driving home from work, it started bucking and and the instrument cluster started going crazy. It started accelerating and I had to hit the brakes. It never threw any codes. A couple days later driving I had no power, and instrument cluster went crazy again. I seen a wrench and finally threw a code. I keep a code reader in my truck, it threw po720. It started driving fine after I turned it off and back on. I went home and read about the Ford F150 lead frame recall and my truck was made at the same plant. However Ford says, I am not covered. I do not understand how they can cover trucks a couple months before mine.

Tonight I was using my rear defrost on my F-150 and I noticed the glass looked weird. Got out and my worst fear was true the back glass had shattered. I have only owned this truck since April I'm the second owner.

The contact owns a 2014 Ford F-150. The contact stated while driving at various speeds, the vehicle inadvertently downshifted to first gear, making the vehicle uncontrollable. The speedometer became inoperable. The contact stated that the rear tires locked up with the check engine warning light illuminated. The vehicle was taken to the local dealer where it was diagnosed that the lead frame needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was contacted but no additional assistance was provided. The failure mileage was approximately 185,000.

I only used my VIN to get this far. The issue that I have concerns a very important safety feature that I have yet to see on any vehicle. With more and more vehicles being produced with automatic braking systems, I am wondering why the automakers don't have a specific light option on the rear of the vehicle that illuminates when the ABS is activated. There are still millions of vehicles on the road that don't have ABS. This feature would inform following drivers the difference between slowing down and quickly stopping. It could be placed in the middle of the rear brake light that is in the upper middle of the rear window. So, you are probably wondering why I am bringing this to your attention. That is because I have wasted 30k of my own money on 2 different marketing firms trying to get my patent noticed, with no luck. The patent number is 9,643,535 B1. Check it out. I dare you.

On 3 separate occasions I've been going 55-65 mph on the highway and the truck will downshift abruptly and harshly jerking the truck at high speeds. Everything on the instrument panel stops working except for RPMs and the truck is stuck in 5th gear. I get a P0720 code. This is identical to Customer Satisfaction Program 19N01. The reason for my complaint is that my vehicle is not covered. My truck is 6 days outside the build date in the program but has the exact same issue.
