The fuel module failed and the 5,4l Triton engine stopped running. There was no power steering or power brakes in the middle of the fast lane on the interstate. This was a safety critical walk home. The component was disposed of. The vehicle stopped in the fast lane. Possibility to be hit from behind, Ford denied my claim. There were no warnings of the failure. Galvanic corrosion.

What 2007 Ford F-150 owners say
Most recent owner complaints, unedited.
Vehicle reports “check charging system” which has an associated TSB but no recall. My understanding is that the AC drips water on the alternator harness causing degradation and shorting of the wires. A new wiring harness as well as a drain relocation kit are required. I do not believe the customer should be responsible for this repair.
Spark plug blow out. Yes it is available for inspection. Ongoing very common issues with triton engines blowing out spark plugs making a fire hazard because fuel vapor coming out of plug hole could be ignited by coil pack. All ford dealerships are very aware of this issue and have repaired many by rethreading and installing a helicoil thread repair kit at a very high price of 800 dollars and most repairs are temporary because the aluminum is weak and very thin at the spark plug hole. Ford is very aware of this ongoing issue and denies any liability experts don’t agree with fords arguments. No warning the plugs start to blow out at around 140000 miles well after the warranty. This problem started in the 90s all triton engines are affected. As in the photo the dealers attempt to repair was unsuccessful the spark plug is tightened to deep into the head and is broken off. They said at the end of the day I need a new head. 5000 dollars.
The contact owns a 2007 Ford F-150. The contact stated that the fuel gauge was displaying the incorrect fuel level. The vehicle was not diagnosed nor repaired. The manufacturer was not informed of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 36,000.
Driving and started to shake, has nasty rattle (death rattle) threw code p0355. Fixed the code by installing new wires $500.00. Fixed for 2 weeks then started doing it again and code p0355 came up again. Has lack of power and shakes bad. Very much a hazard to drive.
Truck wouldn't start. Upon further inspection found the fuel pump driver module failed due to corrosion. The part was bolted to the cross member on the back of the frame. The bottom of the part is aluminum and the cross member is steel, and they were bolted flush together. Replaced the part and truck works fine. I would like ford to acknowledge that they have an issue with this and reimburse all parties who have had this problem.01
Tl* the contact owns a 2007 ford f-150. While driving approximately 15 MPH, the check engine warning indicator illuminated and the vehicle started to lose acceleration and power. The contact had to pull into a fuel station. The mechanic at the station determined that the ignition coil and a spark plug failed and needed to be changed. The vehicle was repaired. The failure recurred three other times and was repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The VIN was invalid. The approximate failure mileage was 116,000.
Tl* the contact owns a 2007 ford f-150. While driving 70 MPH, the vehicle stalled on the highway without warning. The vehicle was able to be restarted after it cooled off. The vehicle was diagnosed by an independent mechanic who repaired the variable speed timing solenoid. The remedy did not repair the vehicle. The approximate failure mileage was 1,334,000.
My brake light indicator on the dashboard is coming on. This seems to be do to the fact that the resistors were not sodered correctly. I've been looking on multiple forms and this has happened to a lot of the f150's. Ford should be responsible for thsi.
Power windows, radio, wire harness improper design causing shortage in the harness. Potential safety harness due to this manufacturing defect.
