2020 FORD F-250 SD Complaints

My steering wheel is out of orientation by 5 to 10 degrees. there is a shimming in the steering wheel. This is accentuated when i change lanes on the freeway and go over the lane deliniators. If i am on a smooth road on the freeway, my vehicle tracks perfectly staight without and pressure on the steering wheel(hands off, no other vihicles near me. I have less than 15,000 miles. Check mu service record. It is stellar. No accidents. No off road driving. Move my fifth wheel tralir 20 feet to a new space only. Never had the fifth wheel on the road yet. My fifth wheel is an ultra lite design for a F-150. There was a lawsuit for the Death Wobble for the 2019 and earlier models. How many adults and children have to die before it shows up on your radar screen. What are the algorithems for this to be a unhidden issue. Shame on you.

REAR SLIDING WINDOW SHATTERED AFTER REMOTE STARTING VEHICLE WHICH TURNS ON REAR DEFROSTER. GLASS EXPLODED INTO CAB COVERING OCCUPANTS IN GLASS.

MOTOR HAS A NKOCKING TAPPING SOUND LIKE AND OLD SCHOOL TYPE WRITER AND GETS LOUD AT TIMES WHEN IDELING AND SOME TIME REALLY LOUD ANFTER DRIVING IT FO RW WHLLE, (DIESEL ENGINE DOESN'T SOUND LIKE THAT),FORD ENGINEERING AT FACTORY KNOWS WHAT THE PROBLEM IS BUT REFUSES TO ALLOW DEALERSHIP TO REPAIR IT AND REPLACE THE PARTS. TRANSMISSION HAD SNECOR AND VALVE BODY GO OUT CAUSED TRANSMISSION TO LOCK UP IN 10TH GEAR AND STALLING OUT. DEALERSHIP REPLACED THE PARTS WITH NEW ONES, BU TDID NOT CORRECT THE PROBLEM AND NOW STALLES AND SLIPPES WHEN SHIFTING GEARS, OR SOMETIMES SHIFTS SO HARD IT SHAKES THE TRUCK (F250 DIESEL). HAS A GRINDING NOISE WHEN DOWN SHIFTING FROM 5,4,3 GEARS. WHEN DRIVINING THE TRUCK AND GO TO PASS AROUND ANOTHER VEHICLE IS SLIPS GEARS ARE STALLES DOWN UNTIL IT CAN CATCH ITS GEAR TO GO HAPPENED SEVERAL TIMES. VEHICLE ONLY HAS 6,500 MILES ON IT AND WAS PURCHASED AUGUST 26, 2020 AND SHOULD NOT HAVE THESE ISSUES AND PROBLEMS. MOST OF ALL THE FACTORY ENGINEERS SHOULD NOT DENY THE DEALERSHIP TO FIX AND REPLACE WHAT IS WRONG AND CAUUSING THE LOUND AND UPNOGCHIS KNOCKING TICKING SOUND EVEN AFTER DOING A BLACK BOX FLIGHT RECORDER TO DETERMINE WHERE THE PROBLEM IS COMING FROM. THEY SAID TO KEEP DRIVING UNTIL ENOUGH COMPLAINTS COM IN TO HAVE A RECALL SENT OUR ARE UNTIL IT BRAKES AND GOES OUT. THIS IS A SAFETY HAZARD TO EVERYONE ON THE ROAD AND COULD POSSIBLY CAUSE HARM TO INISANT PEOPLE, SUCH AS MYSELF, MY FAMILY, AND OTHERS OUT ON THE ROAD. PLEASE HAVE THIS LOOKED INTO AND HELP GET IT TAKEN CARE OF.

APPROXIMATELY 100 MILES INTO A JOURNEY, WHILE TOWING A 5TH WHEEL TRAILER, AT APPROX. 70MPH IN A 75 MPH ZONE BETWEEN CARLSBAD NM AND EL PASO TX ON HIGHWAY #180, THE TAILGATE OF MY F-250 OPENED WITHOUT WARNING OR REASON. I WAS GOING STRAIGHT SO IT DIDN'T MAKE CONTACT WITH THE TRAILER SO NO DAMAGE TO THE TRUCK OR TRAILER. I WAS ABLE TO PULL OVER AND SECURE. THIS IS THE SECOND TIME THIS HAS OCCURRED -- I ALSO REPORTED THE PRIOR INCIDENT TO NHTSA AND TO FORD. ALSO, WHEN THIS OCCURRED THE DRIVER DASHBOARD ALERT FOR OPEN TAILGATE DID NOT ACTIVATE. THE TRUCK HAD APPROX. 10,000 MILES AT THE TIME.

VEHICLE CLUNKS AND LUNGES FORWARD ON START UP (KEY & REMOTE START) WHILE IN PARK.

WHEN SLOWING DOWN TO A STOP SLOWLY THE TRUCK BUMPS/CLUNKS AND SURGES. THIS IS INTENSIFIED IF THE TRANSMISSION IS WARM. ALSO WHEN GOING UP A HILL UNDER A LOAD THERE IS A GEAR NOISE FROM THE REAR OF THE TRUCK.

II WAS DRIVING MY VEHICLE, APROX 55 MPH ON A NORMAL ROAD. I HIT A POT HOLE, THE VEHICLE BEGAN TO SHAKE VIOLENTLY, I THOUGHT IT WAS A FLAT TIRE. I MANAGED TO SAFELY PULL OVER, INSPECT VEHICLE AND DETERMINED EVERYTHING "LOOKED" OKAY. UPON DOING SOME RESEARCH I SAW THIS IS A VERY COMMON ISSUE WITH THESE VEHICLES, FORDS FAMOUS "DEATH WOBBLE". I HAVE 25K MILES, MY TRUCK IS PRACTICALLY BRAND NEW, 80% MILES PLACED ON IN ARE HIGHWAY MILES. THIS IS VERY DANGEROUS AND UNSAFE, FORD NEEDS TO ADDRESS THIS ASAP.

CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON WHILE DRIVING AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS ON THE FREEWAY. TRUCK BEGAN TO SPUTTER SLIGHTLY WHEN COMING TO A STOP. VEHICLE WAS STILL DRIVABLE AND I WAS ABLE TO MAKE IT HOME. LATER DIAGNOSIS AT DEALERSHIP SHOWED THE PROBLEM TO BE A DEFECTIVE SPARK PLUG WIRE. I HAVE SINCE READ THAT THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM WITH THE NEW 7.3 GAS ENGINE BY FORD.

THE ELECTRONIC TAILGATE HAS OPENED BY ITSELF TWICE. ONE IN A PARKING LOT (NOT MOVING) AND THE OTHER IN MY DRIVEWAY (NOT MOVING). THE ONLY COMMON THING IS THAT IT WAS RAINING BOTH TIMES.

VEHICLE DEMONSTRATES REPEATABLE UNCOMMANDED ACCELERATION WHEN SHIFTING FROM 2ND TO 3RD GEAR. ALSO DEMONSTRATES UNCOMMANDED ACCELERATION WHEN ENGINE BRAKING ENGAGES. OCCASIONALLY VEHICLE OPERATES AT A UNCOMMANDED HIGH IDLE OF 1200-1500 RPM VS THE NORMAL 600. MOSTLY HAPPENS WHEN SLOW MANEUVERING SUCH AS IN A PARKING LOT OR OTHER TIGHT SPACE. IT HAS HAPPENED EVER SINCE NEW AND IT HAS 5100 MILES ON IT NOW. PURCHASING DEALER SAID IT WAS NORMAL. OTHERS ARE REPORTING THE SAME ISSUE IN FORUMS ONLINE.
