I was driving and the lights on the vehicle went out I thought it was the bulbs but no lights were working I adjusted steering wheel to look to see fuse box and all lights came back on there is an electrical short somewhere then I went to start the truck and it made a funny sound and then I lost all power and truck wouldn't start then the alarm kept going off and I could turn off even with the remote or the chipped key. And the truck won't start. Also when you change gears the indicator to show what gear you are in dosent move . This truck has electrical issues and is not safe for drivers to lose all power like this and basically its something ford should be responsible for fixing because it's a defect in the electrical system also the AC compressor dosent work

I had an accident I january 2016 and my airbag did not deploy cause me damage to my neck and both shoulder. Doctors say I need surgery on rotator cuffs. If airbags had deployed I would not have been thrust forward. I grabbed steering wheel to brace myself and was thrust forward there for damage both rotator cuffs in my shoulder and hurting my neck also. I have seen many other trucks of my make that air bags have not deployed and people getting hurt. I do not understand why they did not deploy. . Why are there not recalls on this air bags. Thank you.

I was driving on the interstate at 65mph when my left rear tire blew a flat. when I came to a stop safely, the tire was completely separated on the sidewall and the tire was smoking! Couldn't believe my eyes. I've now been reading that this michelin tire was recalled in other sizes. This event occurred on 8/17/2016 and the tire had 35,000 miles on it.

Ever since I got the truck about 4 months ago I have been having a problem with the rear brakes locking up. It happens after the vehicle has been sitting up for a few hours and it's raining or there's a good but of moisture in the air. When you first get in the truck the rear brakes will lock up on you only going forward for some reason. If you apply very little pressure it does it. After about 10 times locking it up it drives fine as long as its not parked for a while. On a good hot summer day with no moisture or rain it does do it at all. A few weeks ago I backed out my drive way it was raining and it did it. So I decided to pull back into my driveway and take my fiance's car to town. When I was pulling up it locked up when I trying to stop and slid into the corner of my home. No major damage was done just cracked the front bumper. I have taking it to 3 local mechanics. None know how to fix. They looked at the breaks, rotors and hubs. All was fine. One mechanic told me this was the 3 time he has seen this on the same exact kind of truck. I do like the truck. But I'm terrified to drive it. I thought about selling it, but now I'm in a situation where if someone gets hurt in it I would feel horrible. I sure hope someone on here can help me out with this problem. *tr

I have owned this truck since 2002. left rear passenger door handle broke (one day it worked, next day it was flopping and obviously disconnected). Can't open it from the outside or inside. Front driver's side door handle also feeling floppy and loose. child "safety" latches on both back passenger doors have never worked properly so anyone sitting in the back seat has to be let out by someone on the outside as the inside door handle won't work. on the internet, you will see that door failures on this make and model are rampant. This IS extremely dangerous. In an accident, the driver and/or passengers could not get out of the truck. Fixing the doors IS really difficult as w/o being able to open the door, you have to dismantle the interior of the truck in order to get to the I/S door panel. This IS not a repair a typical owner could do for themselves, even my mechanic does not want to do it. With the large number of truck owners complaining of this door failure problem on the net and the extremely dangerous position it puts the driver and passengers in, ford should have a recall issued. Obviously these door latches are very susceptible to failure and continued to be installed by ford for years. *tr

Found that after approx.80,000 miles that all the body support bushing had dried out and crumbled.. This cause sever lack of control. Cornering was accompanied with loud body metal banging. The truck was taken out of service and repaired. The body was raised off the frame and all bushing where replaced at the owners expense. Ford would not complete this work under warranty even though it IS a gross safety issue. *tr

While driving down the road I heard a popping followed by a lot of metal noise. The truck seamed shift around. Upon looking under the truck the body mount under the passenger seat was gone on both sides of the frame. The cab IS now sitting on the frame and some parts around the passenger front mount are cracked. Called ford, not under warranty or recall. (Good answer?) I think not....took to local ford dealer in ri. Told him what the problem was and that my wife wanted to use the sport trac to pick up our 1 year old grandson. He told me the truck was unsafe and not to drive it ... Sound like a maintenance issue? Sounds more like a product failure. Ford knows. Nhtsa knows. We who own know. This IS not environmental due to the fact that I see it IS also happening in texas too. So I will call ford again and demand the fix as many times as it takes til my truck IS fixed. The nhtsa needs to start calling this what it IS "ford"s bad product decision and not the burden of the consumer. *tr

On sunday the night before the incident the vehicle was used that day. In the afternoon around 3 pm it was taken to get gassed up for the work week. The next morning was chilly and it was started to warm the vehicle up. However, the vehicle didn't start at all. The dash lights, interior-exterior lights all have power to include power locks and windows. The battery tested good, the starter and solenoid tested good. The wire to the solenoid from the battery has power. The vehicle had not shown signs of faulty starting. Two to 3 times before this incident none of the lights would work but then miraculously work again. When the lights would work I'm mean the headlights, left and right turn signal, etc. It seemed the one way to get them to work again would be to adjust the steering wheel but that didn't always work. Why IS this vehicle not starting when the day before IS was working just fine and had not given any signs of failure? *tr

Vehicle started having a chatter under the hood. Pulled out on to the highway and the transmission started slipping and would not engage (very dangerous, was in the middle of the highway and couldn't move). Took to a mechanic and he told me the noise had something to do with the tensioners or something to that effect on the transmission. He said there was a recall for this in the past but not sure if the recall IS still in effect. This dangerous problem needs to be fixed before someone gets injured or worse and ford will be liable. *tr

On september 6, 2005, odi received a petition requesting that the agency investigate allegations of engine spark plug ejection in certain model year 1997 through 2004 ford vehicles with triton V-8 and V-10 engines.odi received a total of 474 non-duplicative complaints on the subject vehicles where the complainant, or the dealer repairing the vehicle, reported that a spark plug detached from the cylinder and/or ejected from the engine.as of december 8, 2005, odi IS not aware of any allegations where the alleged defect resulted in a loss of vehicle control, a crash, an injury, or a fatality in any of the 10,319,810 subject vehicles.in addition, odi IS aware of only two incidents where the vehicle stalled without restart.information contained in the odi consumer complaints and obtained from 72 telephone interviews with complainants showed the following:(1) 99% of the complaints were on my 1997 to 2002 subject vehicles.(2) most the complainants reported hearing a loud pop while driving or upon starting up the vehicle followed by a loud, repetitive clicking or popping sound.(3) many of the complainants reported that the popping sound was accompanied by some loss of vehicle power; however, in 99% of the incidents reported, the vehicle did not stall.in the very few incidents where the vehicle did stall, most vehicles could be restarted.(4) only a small percentage of the complainants cited that they smelled gas or a slight burning smell when the incident occurred.(5) in all but a very few incidents, vehicle damage was limited to the engine.in one incident, the complaint reported that the fuel rail was damaged and replaced after one of the spark plugs ejected from the engine; however, the complainant reported that the damage did not result in any type of fuel leak or fire.in another incident, the only incident where a fire was alleged, the complainant reported that no fluid leak was observed, but that a fire resulted after the spark plug had ejected from the engine and he had restarted the vehicle and driven to another location.none of the complainants reported any damage to the vehicle hood.(6) only two complainants reported that they observed what appeared to be some drops of fuel coming from the cylinder where the spark plug had failed or on the spark plug itself; however, each of these complainants reported that there was no smoke or flames as a result of his incident.as the petitioner noted, and odi?s analysis showed, it IS possible for a spark plug to detach from the engine cylinder threads in the subject vehicles.however, odi?s analysis of 474 complaints describing such incidents found only a very few alleged any safety-related consequences.none of these showed any evidence of a serious safety consequence.given the large population and relatively long exposure time of the subject vehicles, the complaint analysis indicates that the risk to motor vehicle safety from the alleged defect IS very low.in view of the foregoing, it IS unlikely that nhtsa would issue an order for the notification and remedy of the alleged defect at the conclusion of the investigation requested in the petition.therefore, in view of the need to allocate and prioritize nhtsa?s limited resources to best accomplish the agency?s safety mission, the petition IS denied.
