The normal camshaft phaser issues are occurring. loud knocking, vibrating while idling, and general rattling from the motor when the truck isn't above 1000 rpm's. while this may not directly cause accidents, in intense rattling and knocking can cause other issues to arise which in turn can cause major safety concerns for the nhtsa. if ford doesn't decide to take on this issue and repair it, then it can be expected that every 3 valve ford motor made since 2005 will eventually succumb to these major issues. as we all know ford has had issues designing motors in the past, primarily the 6.0, 6.4 and 5.4 motor that i currently own, but it is time for ford to step up and handle the mechanical problems that their designers negligence caused. it is not too much to ask that an auto manufacturer stands by their product and repairs or replaces the faulty part when the time comes. additionally in the part you wherein you asked for the date of the incident, i will put the most recent occurrence but please note that this issue is reoccurring and you should expect knocking and vibration every time you ...

On my truck the passenger side exhaust manifold has rusted and the rear bolts have rusted off. this has caused the manifold to leak right at the exhaust port. this leak fills the cab of the vehicle with exhaust fumes. it is also leaking pre-catalyst exhaust. the fuels in the cab are a serious safety issue and well as an emissions issue. research on the internet shows this is a very common problem on ford trucks of this era. talking to ford about this they offer a very small discount on the service if i have it done at the dealer. i have had trucks for years and never had a problem like this before. my truck is a 2010 ford f150 with 106,000 miles on it.
While driving on the highway the engine shut off. upon inspection, fuse #27 burned out instead of blowing. this fuse controls the fuel pump, and when it burned up the fuel pump lost power at highway speed. upon research it is a very common problem with the 2009-2014 year models and ford issued a tsb but not a recall. i hadn't known about this when purchasing the truck used, and it is a very serious safety issue.

When slowing down (at an intersection for example) to make a turn the vehicle dies and makes it very, very difficult to turn because the power steering does not work. i have almost gotten into two accidents because of not being able to stay in my lane during the turn. i have never seen a truck so difficult to turn when the engine is not running. additionally, the truck will not start after fueling. i had the truck towed the first time it happened and the ford dealer (madison county ford in richmond, ky) said it was a transmission problem. the first time i put fuel in the truck, it would not start. it sat a couple of days and started. the engine was stopping just as it did before. took it back to the same ford dealer and they said they had diagnosed the problem properly. i spend $2,216 on what they said the problem was and it was still doing the same thing. the paramount issue is when the truck dies while driving and it can't be steered properly.
While driving down the road engine shut off. when slowing down to make a turn, engine will shut off. and i rolled across intersection, lost brakes and steering. in motion most of the time. on city streets.
