My name is [xxx], i own a 2011 f150 ecoboost. over the past 4 years i have encountered and same issue with the engine misfiring due to moisture getting in the intake. everyone dealership personal i've spoken with has confirmed that it's a known issue with that year and model and there is no permanent fix. however when the engine continuously misfires it calls for service on the truck and replacement of certain parts. i am filling this complaint because i do not believe this right that ford should be allowed to ignore a known issue that has almost gotten myself and family into a serious accident on the highway. as well cost me money out of pocket to correct. i would like to see someone hold ford accountable before this issue gets someone killed. information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u.s.c. 552(b)(6). *tr
1. i am not alone in a complaint about the fuel canister being a problem on the f150- i have complained about this twice now- others in the forum are doing the same. the vapor canister in the engine compartment becomes faulty and the engines stall or runs rough- when it stalls, it is impossible to steer. i grew up without power steering- 97$ out of pocket- dealer couldn't figure it out- had another mechanic diagnose and repair. it's a simple fix- yet can be dangerous if someone with strong arm strength cannot turn the vehicle or use the breaks. this has to be looked at.! i should have been reimbursed! waiting for someone to get killed is inexcusable- happened with just 35k miles on truck. 2. seems ford has a mega defect with bad design on their f150 power rear windows with the heat grids going bad- this happened at maybe the same time, and unless i spend 1000 dollars, i have no rear-window defogging- this was nearly a 50k vehicle, and just started to fall apart after the ...
I was driving in heavy traffic, on a downtown street, when the truck suddenly cut off, loosing some braking and steering. the truck would not restart. i pushed it out of the travel lanes and had it towed to my ford dealer. the dealer finds a burnt fuse receptacle for the electric fuel pump. then i discover they have known about this problem, created a repair kit, but failed to notify owners this is happening. i wonder, if the fuel pump wiring is getting hot enough to melt the fuse holder, but not blowing the fuse, doesn't this cause a problem, why isn't the fuse blowing?. it really looks like a faulty design and needs to be corrected before someone gets hurt, from failing to be able to control the vehicle without power, or the reason the fuse is getting hot, shows up and starts melting the wiring to the fuel pump. please look into this, it needs to be recalled to fix this faulty design or at least contact the owners so they could have it fixed before this happens. fords fix was to reroute the circuit to another style fuse, so they know, the original design will not ...
The electronic throttle body failed at 40,000 miles while driving the car in traffic. i had no control over the vehicle speed, as the gas pedal did not respond, and the car slowed to about 5 mph. i managed to get out of traffic without a collision. i checked online and found this is a very common complaint for ford 3.5l engines. my truck has the 3.5l eco-boost engine. *tr

Throttle was completely lost. truck would only run around 5 mph maximum. would not take throttle at all. this is a very dangerous condition when in a high traffic and multi lane setting where all the other vehicles are running at high speeds. it is also very dangerous when pulling a 7000 lb trailer with no or extremely limited pull offs for emergencies such as this. it creates a very real possibility of death. this occurred on a local road in fitzgerald, ga traveling straight with light traffic conditions fortunately. i drove the truck in to fitzgerald ford from about 3 to 4 miles away at the above mentioned speed. the dealership diagnosed the problem as a faulty throttle body, and it was replaced at a cost to me of $248.12. my wife's car also had this problem with the exact same part. it was replaced by the same dealership and paid for by us. my wife [xxx] subsequently received correspondence from ford that indicated the throttle body warranty had been extended, and that cost that we previously paid was refunded to us. her car which ...
