I have 2018 ford f150 raptor edition and have had nothing but issues with it since purchasing the vehicle in november of 2017 brand new. currently the engine is blown and it has been in and out of service for over 118 days since purchase.i was driving on the expressway, first day after getting truck back from 28 day service and the engine oil pressure light came on again which is why it was in service. i called the dealer and ford and they advised to keep driving until they heard back from the ford hotline. a week or so later it was broke down smoking on the side of the highway. in addition there have been numerous other problems.
My truck has had an engine stumbling, hesitation, and misfiring problem since day 1 of ownership. the dealership said it would resolve itself after 2000miles of normal driving but it has not. it has progressively gotten worse over 10 months of ownership. it is much worse during hot summer weather (ie temps above 90f). occasionally when depressing the accelerator, the truck hesitates and fails to accelerate. i am very worried that it will do this when pulling out in traffic. the dealerships have been able to duplicate the problem but have not been able to fix it. i am using my 2nd vehicle to drive to/from work as this new 2018 f-150 v8 is unreliable.
My truck has a constant rattle/detonation/preignition noise during all driving. it is especially bad during hot summer months. it has only gotten worse as months have gone by. it is especially noticeable while climbing very slight uphill grades and at speeds between 35-55mph. it can be heard from inside and outside vehicle. the noise is coming from engine. a vibration and shudder can be felt in vehicle when noise is present. when it is really bad, the sound is very loud and sounds like a metal hammer banging on inside of engine. i was told this would get better with mileage, but has only gotten worse. i have audio and video recordings of noise over then past 10months. i am very worried that this engine is going to fail.
