2014 FORD F-150 Complaints

The symptoms are exactly as described in the leadframe recall of 2013 F-150 trucks - my truck is 2014. The truck suddenly shifts to 1st gear while travelling at higher speeds, sluggish acceleration, check engine light and the wrench icon appearing on the display, MPG display dropped to zero, and the speedometer stopped working while driving. The symptoms appeared gradually over the last 6 months, with the speedometer and the wrench icon happening yesterday. The last time I took it to the mechanic, about 2 months ago, the check engine light was on, but no codes. This is a safety issue because sudden shifting to 1st gear while at a higher speed is going to cause loss of control and an accident.

Service advanetrac message came on while driving (not at start up) prior to losing power steering while driving. Service advancetrac message came on but went away after 1 minute of driving. A few minutes after message went away, the truck completely lost power steering while driving on a highway (nearly lost conrol). Power Steering Assist fault message then appeared and the Service Advancetrac message reappeared. Had to have truck towed.

I was driving with my defrost on front and rear windows at night time. I was stopped at a light when I heard a loud bang followed by a crackling noise. I safely found a spot to park close by and inspected if anything hit my truck. Nothing. My rear window on my cab was completely shattered. No evidence of anything hitting it. My truck bed was completely empty and had the canopy on. There was nothing in between the rear truck and canopy. What the heck? Had to be the rear defrost. There are multiple stories on the internet just like mine, with zero recall!!!! Ford make this right. Now I’m out 780.00 due to Fords faulty defrost wiring.

I was turning into a had station and my advance trac message came on than a loud screeching noise was made and I had no power steering I looked online and it said maybe my battery terminal fuse was bad so I replaced it even though it was fine I did some .ore research and come to find out my epas gear motor went out so I had to order a replacement I asked ford about the recall and they seem to not know anything about it at the dealership so when I called ford corporate they instructed me to call back the dealership so I'm stuck going back and forth it's kinda weird there's a recall for exact thing that went out in my truck and my truck is the same year so I'm a little confused maybe ford true to sweep this under the rug and repace the trucks that came forward years ago and be done with it ohhh did Mention my truck just hit 60k miles

On several occasions while driving at 50+ mph my truck suddenly downshifts from 6th gear to 1st gear causing the rear wheels to lock up and skid. i have taken the vehicle to the dealership and they refuse to do anything because they can not duplicate the issue. this has happened several times the last time was on the freeway causing me to shoot over 2 lanes of traffic almost causing an accident. the ford dealership and the extended warranty company ameriplus both refuse to help because they both say that they can not duplicate the problem but the vehicle comes up with dtc codes p0731 and p0722This is extremely concerning that this will happen when driving at highway speeds and the fact this vehicle is my daily driver and I usually have my kids in the vehicle with me. Im very concerned about the safety of driving now especially after learning this exact issue was recalled on the vehicles a year before mine with three same 6 speed transmission, but not on my year.

The back doors use to swing open when driving now they won’t open at all. Both of our raptors did this. It is a problem

In October 2017 the entire rear window heating element was identified as defective. The entire window panel was replaced with Ford contributing partial monetary renumeration for the repair. On November 2, 2021 the rear window heater was activated. The indicator light did not “light up”. Approximately 15 minutes later a loud “bang” was heard in the cabin and the presence of smoke was evident. Upon pulling over and inspecting the vehicle, smoke was emanating from the rear right (passenger side) bottom corner. It was also noticed that the entire right panel. Ford has indicated that there is currently no recall associated with this. There are multiple reported incidents of the occurring over many years upon performing a Google search.

Monday November 1, 2021. I was traveling at approximately 45 mph when transmission downshifted to 1st gear. The tires locked up, causing severe skid bringing me to an abrupt stop. Fortunately, traffic was light and no one was behind me.

The battery light went on I drove about tem more miles. I shut the veh off got gas pulled out of the gas station and the lights went out and the engine shut off.
