MY 2014 F 150 5.0 has the 6 speed auto trans. transmission will downshift while running highway speeds or speed over 50 mph. On 09/13/2022 the rear wheeI's locked up for a brief moment causing the rear of the truck to fishtail while I was running 70 mph on the highway. I was able to control the truck and was able to pull off to the side of the road safely this time. turned the truck off and let it reset for a few minutes and it was fine. the second time this happened I was on my way to drop my kids off at the babysitter so I can go to work and it done it again only this time the wheels didn't lock up and it downshifted from 6th to 2nd. Once again i pull over and shut the truck off and let it reset for a little while and it was fine. I am a single father of 5 young kids and this has happened twice in the last 2 weeks with them in the vehicle, this is our only means of transportation. hopefully ford gets this taken care of.

2014 F150 Lariat owned since it was new. Windshield wipers failed to come on during Florida thunderstorm while driving on I-10 Westbound from Jacksonville Florida. Was totally unable to see out of the windshield and had to pull over until the rainstorm subsided. Checked all relevant fuses and relays and wiper switch. Nothing so far has been able to fix this Safety Defect. Ford knows the part is defective because the Windshield wiper motor is not available from Ford or any dealer, and there is no expectation by the dealer than anything will ever be available to fix this Safety Defect.

The master cylinder failed when brake pedal was pressed. A complete total brake failure happened and i had no braking power but the parking brake, Had i entered into the main traffic and applied my brakes nothing would happen and i probably would have had an accident. I didn't have time to look for any warning lites as i was focused on beong able to stop the truck.As for my safety and others it could have been bad if not me being able to stop the truck.

Bought new tires. Tire center had issues with the two piece lug nut systems that came installed from factory. They were swollen and had moisture in them. Had to have replacement lug nuts installed.
