2014 FORD F-150 Complaints

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 FORD F-150. WHILE DRIVING 70 MPH, THE BRAKE FLUID WARNING INDICATOR ILLUMINATED. THE CONTACT DEPRESSED THE BRAKE PEDAL, WHICH FAILED TO ENGAGE. THE CONTACT VEERED TO THE SHOULDER OF THE ROAD AND APPLIED THE EMERGENCY BRAKE TO STOP THE VEHICLE. WHEN THE CONTACT TURNED THE VEHICLE OFF AND BACK ON, IT RESUMED NORMAL OPERATIONG. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO ZECK FORD (4501 S 4TH ST, LEAVENWORTH, KS 66048, (800) 394-1650) TO BE DIAGNOSED, BUT THE FAILURE COULD NOT BE DUPLICATED. THE DEALER STATED THAT THE BRAKE MASTER CYLINDER COULD POSSIBLY BE THE CAUSE OF THE FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE AND PROVIDED CASE NUMBER: CAS-22333089. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 81,000.

2014 F150 W/~55,000 MILES- (1) 7/30/19- CARRYING LIGHT LOAD IN BED (200 LBS+/-) & 2 PEOPLE INCLUDING DRIVER, ON MAJOR HIGHWAY DURING RUSH HOUR ACCELERATING UP HILL, HAD DRIVEN 15 MINUTES WITHOUT ISSUES. VEHICLE SUDDENLY LOST ALL POWER AND TACHOMETER RED LINED. DID NOT NOTICE IF ANY WARNING LIGHTS ON AS WAS TRYING DESPERATELY NOT TO BE DEAD DUE TO 18 WHEELER RIGHT BEHIND ME. JUST AS SUDDENLY RESOLVED AFTER ABOUT 10 SECONDS. (2) 7/6/19- TRUCK IN PARK WITH EMERGENCY BRAKE ENGAGED, FACING UPHILL ON BOAT RAMP WITH LIGHTWEIGHT BOAT TRAILER IN TOW & IN "TOW/HAUL MODE". (NO BOAT, ONLY DRIVER & 200-300 LBS LOAD IN BED) DISENGAGED EMERGENCY BRAKE & VEHICLE ROLLED BACKWARD WHILE STILL IN PARK. BRAKED. PUT IN DRIVE & VEHICLE ROLLED BACKWARD BEFORE FINALLY ENGAGING & ABLE TO ACCELLERATE UP RAMP. (3) FREQUENTLY, SINCE TRUCK BRAND NEW, HEAR A "THUNK" WHEN SHIFTING FROM PARK TO DRIVE (ON FLAT SURFACE) & ESPECIALLY LOUD, EVERY TIME I SHIFT FROM PARK TO REVERSE (ALSO ON FLAT SURFACE) & ALWAYS DOING EITHER IF ON A HILL. TOOK TO DEALER WHEN STILL UNDER WARRANTEE WHO SAYS THIS IS NORMAL. I LIVE IN A VERY FLAT AREA SO ONLY DISCOVERED THAT TRANSMISSION HESITATES &/OR SLIPS ON THESE OCCASIONS, AFTER WARRANTEE EXPIRED. TAKING IT TO MY TRUSTED MECHANIC WHO EMPLOYS A CERTIFIED FORD TRUCK MASTER MECHANIC & HAS NO FINANCIAL REASON TO DOWNPLAY ISSUES.

WHILE DRIVING, AN UNEXPECTED DOWNSHIFT INTO FIRST GEAR CAUSING THE VEHICLE TO SLOW DOWN SUDDENLY WITHOUT WARNING AND THE REAR TIRES MAY SLIDE OR LOCK, INCREASING THE RISK OF A CRASH. THIS IS THE EXACT SAME ISSUE THAT FORD ISSUED A RECALL ON FOR THE 2011-2012 F150'S. THERE ARE MANY ISSUES I HAVE READ ABOUT RECENTLY WITH OTHER PEOPLE AND THIS ISSUE WILL LIKELY KILL SOMEONE BEFORE ANYTHING IS DONE. IMAGINE DRIVING 75 ON THE INTERSTATE AND IT SHIFTS INTO 1ST GEAR OUT OF NOWHERE. THIS WILL CAUSE AN ACCIDENT WITH THE POTENTIAL OF DEATH TO ONE OR MORE PEOPLE IF YOU CANNOT CONTROL THIS VEHICLE.

BRAKES WENT OUT WHILE DRIVING LIGHT COME ON AND NO BRAKES NO LEAKS SHOWING ADDED FLUID GUESS GOING INTO BOOSTER NOT SHOWING A LEAK ANYWHERE ELSE

2013-2014 BRAKE MASTER CYLINDER LEAKING INTO THE BRAKE BOOSTER....MY 2014 F150 HAS THIS SAME FAILURE WITH 58K MILES ON THE VEHICLE. IT SHOULD BE INVESTIGATED AND INCLUDE THIS VEHICLE IN THE RECALL. MY DAUGHTER WAS DRIVING THE VEHICLE THIS MORNING AND THE BRAKE PEDAL WENT ALL THE WAY TO THE FLOOR WHEN SLOWING TO MERGE ONTO A US HIGHWAY HERE IN DAGSBORO, DELAWARE 19939. WINDSHIELD WIPER/TURN SIGNAL SWITCH RECALL....THIS 2014 FORD F150 HAS THE SAME SYMPTOMS AS THOSE THAT FALL UNDER THE RECALL NOTICE WHEREAS THE WINDSHIELD WIPERS WILL ALL OF A SUDDEN COME ON AND YOU CANNOT GET IT TO TURN OFF. NO MATTER IF YOU ARE MOVING OR NOT THIS CAN OCCUR SPORADICALLY WITHOUT WARNING.

I HAD USE THE TRUCK ALL WEEKEND, IT WAS RUNNING FINE, PARKED IT IN MY DRIVEWAY. STARTED VEHICLE MONDAY MORNING AND GOT A WARNING LIGHT SAYING "BRAKE FLUID LOW". I'VE NEVER SEEN THIS LIGHT IN MY LIFE, LET ALONE SINCE OWNING THIS TRUCK. PUSHED THE BRAKE PEDAL, AND IT WENT TO THE FLOOR, THERE WERE NO BRAKES. CHECKED THE RESERVOIR, THERE WAS NO FLUID. CALLED EL CAJON FORD, IN CA. TOLD THEM I WAS HAVING IT TOWED IN. IN THE MEANTIME, GOT ON LINE TO RESEARCH POSSIBLE PROBLEMS, FOUND THAT THERE HAD BEEN A RECALL FOR THIS EXACT PROBLEM. GOT TO THE DEALERSHIP AND THE SERVICE ADVISOR ACKNOWLEDGED THERE HAD BEEN A RECALL, BUT SAID HE WOULD NEED TO INSPECT THE TRUCK. CALLED ME BACK AND CONFIRMED THIS WAS THE ISSUE, BUT SAID MY VIN WAS NOT ONE OF THE RECALLED VEHICLES. SAME PARTS, SAME PROBLEM, BUT NOT COVERED. I CALLED FORD CUSTOMER SERVICE AND WAITED TWO DAYS FOR THEM TO DETERMINE THEY WERE NOT GOING TO COVER THIS PROBLEM. THIS IS A FACTORY DEFECT, NOT TO MENTION A SAFETY HAZARD, THAT IS ACKNOWLEDGED BY FORD, AND THEY ARE NOT STANDING BEHIND IT. WAS TOLD IT WAS ONLY CERTAIN VIN MADE IN CERTAIN PLANTS. IT'S THE MASTER CYLINDER, THAT MOST LIKELY MADE BY ONE MANUFACTURER AND SHIPS TO ALL FORD PLANTS,

ON TUESDAY, 7/23/2019 WITH TEMPERATURES IN THE LOW 80'S IN THE AFTERNOON AND HIGH 50'S IN THE MORNING BY 3:30 P.M IN MY 2014 FORD F-150, PURCHASED FROM TEXAS, CURRENTLY IN KANSAS, MY REAR, LEFT, TRI-WINDOW SHATTERED WHILE PARKED AT MY JOB LOCATION. MY TRUCK WAS PARKED IN A STATIONARY POSITION FOR 8 HOURS. THERE IS NO EVIDENCE OF ANYTHING IMPACTING MY WINDOW AND ACCORDING TO THE GOVERNMENT MECHANICS THAT LOOKED AT MY WINDOW, "HEAT GOT TO IT", MY WINDOW WAS BROKEN BY THE ELEMENTS.

I AM EXPERIENCING SYMPTOMS LIKE THOSE OUTLINED IN THE RECALL AFFECTING 2011-2013 F-150 TRUCKS (AMONG OTHER VEHICLES) WITH THE 6R80 TRANSMISSION. IT SHIFTS ERRATICALLY AND ABRUPTLY, AND TODAY, I HAD IT DOWNSHIFT FROM 6TH TO 1ST ON THE HIGHWAY AS I WAS CHANGING LANES. THANKFULLY THE TIRES DIDN'T LOCK UP. THE ENGINE REVVED FREELY ALL THE WAY TO REDLINE WHEN THIS OCCURED, GIVEN THE HISTORY OF THESE DOCUMENTED AND REPORTED ISSUES, I'M UNSURE IF THE SECOND WAVE OF RECALLS FROM EARLIER THIS YEAR MANAGED TO INCLUDE ALL OF THE AFFECTED VEHICLES.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 FORD F-150. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 45 MPH, THE VEHICLE DOWNSHIFTED INTO FIRST GEAR WITHOUT WARNING. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE IGNITION WAS CYCLED OFF AND ON AND THE VEHICLE OPERATED AS INTENDED FOR APPROXIMATELY 20 MILES OF DRIVING BEFORE THE FAILURE RECURRED. THE CONTACT USED AN ODB CODE READER TO PERFORM A DIAGNOSTIC TEST ON THE VEHICLE, WHICH INDICATED A P0722-OUTPUT SPEED SENSOR FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. NICK MAYER FORD (LOCATED AT 6200 MAYFIELD RD, MAYFIELD HEIGHTS, OH 44124, (440) 449-1000) WAS CONTACTED BY PHONE AND NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE MANUFACTURER WAS INFORMED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 131,000. PIIR= Y.
