On XXX at approximately 6:50 AM, I was backing out of my driveway. After entering the roadway, I came to a complete stop and shifted from Reverse to Drive while in Normal drive mode. Immediately upon shifting into Drive, the vehicle lurched forward and rapidly accelerated without any accelerator pedal input. My foot was not on the accelerator. The vehicle accelerated to approximately 15-16 MPH and continued moving under power. I had to quickly steer to avoid striking my brick mailbox. The vehicle continued moving until I applied the brakes and brought it to a complete stop. After stopping, the engine RPM returned to normal and the vehicle then operated normally. No warning lights or messages were displayed. This event created a significant safety hazard and nearly resulted in a collision. In addition, the vehicle has experienced intermittent transmission and driveline issues since it was new. Symptoms include harsh upshifts and downshifts, gear hunting, shuddering, driveline clunks, RPM fluctuations under steady throttle, and jerking during acceleration and deceleration. Some downshifts have been severe enough to make the vehicle lurch as if lightly rear-ended. Other events have felt similar to placing a vehicle in Park while still moving. I have experienced abrupt downshifts while slowing from approximately 40 MPH, rapid multiple-gear downshifts accompanied by shuddering, harsh shifts while coming to a stop at low speeds, and repeated gear hunting in traffic. The symptoms occur intermittently, often at low speeds, during the first few miles of driving, and sometimes while traveling uphill. I have returned the vehicle to Ford of [XXX] three times for these concerns. The dealership has been unable to duplicate the condition and no repairs have been performed. I am concerned that the unintended acceleration event and longstanding transmission/driveline abnormalities may be related to an underlying powertrain, transmission, or electronic control defect.

I am the owner of a Ford F-150 Raptor R, a vehicle that Ford specifically engineered to require 5W-50 full synthetic motor oil. Despite following Ford's recommended maintenance schedule, I have been informed by multiple dealerships that they cannot perform a routine oil change because Ford is not supplying sufficient quantities of the required oil. What I find unacceptable is not simply the temporary shortage itself, but Ford's apparent lack of urgency in addressing the problem and the complete absence of a customer solution. I purchased a premium vehicle with the expectation that Ford would be able to support and maintain its own product. Instead, I am being told there is "nothing that can be done" while the vehicle continues to accumulate mileage. This puts owners in an impossible position. If I continue driving the truck, I risk exceeding the recommended service interval and potentially jeopardizing warranty coverage or engine longevity. If I stop driving it, Ford has effectively rendered an expensive vehicle unusable through its inability to provide a basic maintenance requirement. When I contact Ford Customer Service and request escalation to a supervisor, I am repeatedly told that all available resources have been exhausted. However, offering no remedy, no alternative service plan, no approved substitute oil, no reimbursement process, and no timeline for resolution cannot reasonably be considered a remedy. I am asking Ford to provide, in writing: An immediate solution for servicing affected Raptor R vehicles. Written assurance that owners will not suffer warranty consequences if oil changes are delayed due to Ford's inability to supply the required oil. Reimbursement options for customers who must obtain approved oil from third-party sources. A clear timeline for when dealerships will have adequate supplies available. A direct escalation path to management with authority to address this issue. Ford markets the Raptor R as a flagship performance vehicle.

URGENT SAFETY COMPLAINT – 2024 FORD F-150 TREMOR Since May 2026, my 2024 Ford F-150 Tremor has repeatedly experienced a dangerous transmission gear-shifting malfunction. Without warning, the gear selector locks, preventing the vehicle from engaging Drive, Reverse, or Park, leaving it immobilized.…
URGENT SAFETY COMPLAINT – 2024 FORD F-150 TREMOR Since May 2026, my 2024 Ford F-150 Tremor has repeatedly experienced a dangerous transmission gear-shifting malfunction. Without warning, the gear selector locks, preventing the vehicle from engaging Drive, Reverse, or Park, leaving it immobilized. This has occurred in parking garages, blocking entrances and exits, and on interstate highways after stopping in traffic. The vehicle can become stranded in active traffic with no reliable way to move it to safety. This creates an extreme collision risk, potentially resulting in serious injuries or fatalities involving myself, my family, and other motorists. This is not an isolated concern. Ford issued Technical Service Bulletin 25-2276 addressing gear shift module failures in 2021–2025 F-150 trucks, including inability to shift into Park or out of gear. NHTSA complaints 11745086 and 11751717 describe similar failures in 2024 F-150 vehicles. Despite the recurring safety hazard, Ford has refused to repair my vehicle without charging me, citing expiration of the 3-year/36,000-mile warranty due to mileage. A potentially life-threatening safety defect should not be dismissed solely because the vehicle exceeds its warranty mileage. I respectfully request that NHTSA investigate these recurring failures, determine whether a broader safety defect exists, and evaluate whether a safety recall and manufacturer-funded repairs are warranted. I fear that continued operation could result in a preventable fatal accident. Immediate investigation is necessary to protect vehicle owners, passengers, and the public.

The windshields are extremely prone to cracking and chipping. I am now in need of my fourth windshield from an acorn falling off a tree and hitting my windshield while going 25mph. I have had multiple Ford F150s and have never replaced a windshield, I have not changed my driving habits and every one has been from an extremely minuscule incident such as this. I know of at least three other F150 owners at my place of employment who have been through at least one windshield on their newer trucks as well. There is something wrong with these windshields.

Re: Recurring Knock Sensor Failure — 2024 Ford F-150 STX (2.7L) I am writing to document a recurring mechanical issue with my 2024 Ford F-150 STX, 2.7L, currently at approximately 30,900 miles, purchased new. First Incident (late XXX): While driving, the check engine light illuminated, indicating a knock sensor fault. I brought the vehicle to Ted Britt Ford in [XXX], where it remained for five days for sensor replacement. I requested a loaner vehicle, which the dealership stated was unavailable, requiring me to rent a replacement vehicle at my own expense. Second Incident (XXX): Following a period of heavy rainfall, the check engine light returned with an identical knock sensor fault. The vehicle was again taken to the same dealership and held for five days for repair. When I again requested a loaner, I was informed one could not be provided because the vehicle was not originally purchased at that dealership. Rental Costs: Across both repairs, I have incurred rental vehicle expenses for a combined 10 days due to the dealership's lack of loaner availability. Suspected Root Cause: Based on the pattern of failures — particularly the correlation with heavy rain — I believe water may be intruding into the engine compartment through the hood cowl area and affecting the knock sensor. I have found numerous other reports from Ford F-150 owners describing similar symptoms, which suggests this may be a broader design or manufacturing issue rather than an isolated incident. Concerns: Given that this is a low-mileage, recently purchased vehicle experiencing the same failure twice within approximately three to four months, I am concerned this issue will recur once the vehicle is out of warranty, at which point repairs would no longer be covered. I believe this pattern warrants investigation, and potentially a recall, given the apparent frequency of similar complaints among other owners.

The contact owns a 2024 Ford F-150. The contact stated that following an unsuccessful Over-the-Air (OTA) software update, the display screen and instrument panel were constantly rebooting, with a loss of functionality for several electrical features. The vehicle was taken to a dealer, where technicians associated the failure with NHTSA Campaign Number: 26V104000 (Electrical System, Exterior Lighting). After several service repairs and the inclusion of a field service engineer, the vehicle remained unrepaired and had been with the dealer for over two months. The manufacturer was notified of the failure and provided the contact with a case number. The contact was not provided any status updates because the master technicians were on extended leave. The failure mileage was approximately 25,000.

The rear window of my 2024 Ford F-150 XLT violently exploded without warning. I was actively entering the truck when the explosion occurred. There was no collision, or object that stroked the glass. The extremely loud explosion terrified me, and because I initially did not know what had occurred, I contacted police. I have a police report of the incident. The failed component was the rear window/rear glass assembly. The shattered glass and vehicle were available for inspection following the incident and was towed to Ford. The sudden failure presented a serious safety risk because I was at the driver's seat when the glass exploded. I could have sustained significant lacerations from the glass. Other occupants could also potentially be injured. The failure has not been independently reproduced. The failure was directly observed by me, and the police were contacted immediately following the incident. I have reported the incident to Ford. Ford has been notified of the failure, but I have not received an adequate explanation establishing why the rear window suddenly exploded. I have subsequently researched similar reports involving Ford F-150 rear-window failures and discovered other consumer complaints describing sudden or unexplained rear-window shattering, including reports raising concerns regarding the rear defroster and/or associated electrical components. I did not use a rear defroster - the car was off. This raises concerns about whether Ford has adequately investigated a potential recurring defect and whether consumers should have been warned. The vehicle had had no warning lamps. This incident occurred on a vehicle purchased new in 2024. I have also experienced another major problem with the vehicle. I am requesting that NHTSA investigate whether sudden rear-window failure in the Ford F-150 represents a safety defect, whether Ford had prior notice of similar failures, and whether additional investigation, consumer notification, or a safety recall is warranted.

Safety recall 25V512 has been open and unfulfilled for nearly a year. The dealer says parts are not available and cannot provide a date when they will be. I can’t believe Ford cannot get parts for a critical recall but can still produce over 1/2 million new trucks annually.

Purchased new vehicle May 2024 primarily for towing my recreational vehicle (2024 Ford F150 Pickup). June 2024 took vehicle to dealership indicating that I was intermittently getting a "Trailer Disconnect" warning while driving (loss of trailer brakes, lights etc.). Dealer indicated no issue found. Subsequently returned to dealership on 6 other occasions over 2 years after continuing to experience the failure. Replaced 7 pin connector on trailer and dealer has replaced the 7 pin on vehicle and Trailer Control Module (TCM) but problem persists. Early 2026 dealership performed a recall on TCM software - did not resolve the issue (vehicle intermittently indicates the trailer is disconnected while driving or manually activating the trailer brakes). Issue seems to occur typical on startup after several hours of driving with a trailer (heat related), and every time activate the trailer brakes manually. I get a "Trailer Disconnect" warning by activating the manual trailer brake even without a trailer attached. Working with Ford Customer Service Team and the dealership for 7 days, no solution was discovered. The dealership indicated (in writing) that it is normal operation to disconnect the trailer when the TCM is activated manually (while driving or stopped).

While driving in Sport mode on an interstate, during descending downhill, the transmission started down shifting. At that time near the bottom of the hill was standing water on an area. It was suddenly like hitting the brakes & I hydroplaned, but luckily I never touched the brakes. The down shifting at the same time as hitting the water caused the vehicle to loose control of the road. Luckily I regained control by steering and did not wreck. There should be a safety warning on this issue or a correction in the vehicle down shifting

VIN # [XXX] Ford Customer Service Current Case Number: [XXX] Integrated Trailer Module Failure after recall completion. NHTSA Campaign ID Recall # 26C10 was completed at Coconut Point Ford in Florida on 3/26/2026. This recall identified that when towing a trailer, the integrated Trailer Module may lose communication with the trailer possibly causing a loss of brake and turn signal lights or a loss of brake function. On [XXX] in the middle of a seriously steep and dangerous decent, the system reported that the trailer was disconnected from the truck causing, loss of trailer brake control which in turn cause a reliance on the truck. The antilock brake system failed moments later. I had to literally stand on the brakes to slow down to keep from going over the side of the mountain. At the end of the dirt road where it Ts onto the highway we could not stop. We travel with a 23 foot 2019 Vintage Cruiser manufactured by Gulf Stream. That weighs approximately 5200 lbs empty; I have a Cat Scale reading of 4840 pounds from a 12/6/24 weight with my previous truck. We do not travel with any water in our Black, Grey or Fresh Water tanks so even fully loaded we are still well within specs for this trucks towing capacity. The brake control on the truck was set to 5. Faricy Boys Ford in Canon City Colorado, verified that a recall had been completed and worked on the truck for 3 full days, testing many things including tailgate malfunctions and miscellaneous electrical systems trying to replicate the problem, no dealer has been able to replicate the problem. They finally replaced all the brakes and rotors as well as flushing the brake system. I respectfully requested that Ford Motor Company assign the review of this case to a regional Customer Service Manager / Engineer to review the complete repair history of this vehicle, via registered mail. We haven heard anything yet. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)

2024 Ford F150 tremor 14,000 miles The gearshift modual locks into position and locks the transmission (light blinking and transmission light shows on dashboard) You cannot shift to park or start the car, it will do this in drive or reverse and locks the transmission. A hard reset does not solve the issue. The First time this happened l was with my wife and two young children in the mountains around 30miles from cell service. This is a major safety issue. The dealership cannot replicate it, and therefore wont replace it even though it is a known issue. tsb 26-2066 I do have a video of this happening. Fortunately the second time this happened I was close to home. The vehicle occasionally leaves us stranded due to an un-replicated transmission lock flaw.

The contact owns a 2024 Ford F-150. The contact stated that while driving at an undisclosed speed, the Forward Collision Avoidance system failed to function properly. The contact stated that while driving in traffic, after being cut off by another vehicle, the Forward Collision Avoidance system failed to detect or alert the driver of the issue, or activate the Forward Collision Avoidance Automatic Emergency Braking feature. The vehicle was taken to an authorized Ford dealer on two separate occasions due to the failures. During the first visit, the service department performed a diagnostic test but was unable to duplicate the failure. The contact was instructed to return if the failure persisted. During the second service visit, a technician performed a road test with the contact and successfully verified that the ADAS safety features were inoperable. The technician and the contact performed identical test drives on four brand new 2026 Ford F-150 vehicles at the dealer and experienced similar failures with the Forward Collision Avoidance system. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The failure mileage was 45,000.

While traveling at cruising speed (70 MPH) on Interstate 95 South, the vehicle suffered a catastrophic electrical and mechanical failure, resulting in an immediate engine stall. The vehicle lost all propulsion. Due to the sudden loss of power, the vehicle could not safely clear the active lanes of traffic, coasting to a stop near an exit ramp and dangerously blocking highway traffic.Upon attempting to restart the vehicle to move it out of harm's way, the vehicle emitted a rapid clicking noise and again stalled out. Because this vehicle utilizes an electronic shift-by-wire system, the total power failure permanently locked the transmission into "Park." The vehicle could not be shifted into "Neutral" or "Drive" to be pushed safely off the road.This total vehicle failure created an immediate, life-threatening hazard for the occupants and surrounding motorists on a high-speed interstate, requiring emergency police intervention to manage traffic until a flatbed tow truck arrived.
