2010 Ford F-150 driver assistance problems

Rear view mirror backup camera flickers and goes on and off while in reverse, sometimes with the screen remaining blank. This can reduce or eliminate the drivers view of what is behind presenting a safety hazard. The driver is unable to see objects behind them. Ford currently has a recall for backup cameras with the same problem on many other Ford Model vehicles. However, the 2010 Ford F150 is not currently on a recall. This is the SECOND 2010 Ford F150 that I have owned that has had this issue and the internet is full of people posting of the same exact issue with the F150.

I was driving my truck when all of a sudden all of my dash lights went on and my headlights and taillights shut off while I was driving in the dark! It was very dangerous as I was on the highway and my truck started jumping and shifting weird. The traction was messing up. After taking it to the shop they told me it was the computer. I was in a very dangerous situation because of a common fault in this year model. I will be taking to a lawyer monday. Please get back to me as soon as possible.

Several times my ford f150 will suddenly not start and has left me stranded numerous occasions. One mechanic said it was the fuel pump so I replaced that. However, it happened again. Upon researching the internet, I discovered the fuel pump relay may need to be replaced. I took the rear defrosting relay and placed it in for the fuel pump relay and the truck started. However, several days later it happened again. In order to move my vehicle, I have used several different relays to get the truck to start and it's worked up until yesterday. I've bought new ones and it still wouldn't work. Upon further research, I decided to check the fuel pump fuse and it was melted to the fuse box. This made me look up recalls and tsb no. 15-0137 seems to be applicable. However, when I search my VIN, my vehicle is not listed under the recall. I believe it should be.

The vehicle will break on its own, without any warning. This has occurred several times over the past few years. It usually occurs when traveling at lower speeds. 40 MPH and lower. I have not had any incidents on the freeway, just on the highway and mountain roads. No codes come up. The stability control light may come on but it goes away.

I was pulling onto an undivided two lane hwy. And was accelerating up to speed. The vehicle, without any type of warning, applied the brakes by itself causing it to veer hard left and pulling the truck into the oncoming traffic lane. The indicator light for traction control flashed on and off in the instrument panel and you could hear the ABS deploying. Lucky there was no one behind me or coming towards me. Very dangerous situation and quite frightening for my family. We live in a rural community and the dealership is over 50 miles away in one direction. Concerned about safely being able to get it in for diagnostics.

My ford f150 xlt was parted in my drive way, last driven at 9.00am on 8/29/2014. The vehicle was engaged in park, steering wheel locked and key fully with drawn. At around 5.00pm vehicle took off itself with out driver went down the street and hit another parked vehicle causing big damages to that vehicle and as well to ford 150 that I own. I have several evidence of people around my street watching this happening. My purpose of this complain is: 1. To find out whether there is recall on this vehicle, and ford hasn't informed the customers 2. The dealership san leandro ford in ca 94577 didn't respond my compliant- my request was to find if there is recall on the vehicle. 3. My big concern is for public safety, whether this vehicle has factory and has tendency take off when fully parked and disengaged. I believe we were just lucky it didn't hit children playing on the street or didn't run in to some one's house. 4. I really beg your organization to quickly investigate, because this defect can cause serious accidents and deaths 5. We have several pictures and videos for evidence, taken by people in the neighborhood.

Filed a complaint earlier in the year about the electrical problems, and finally received a call back from the dealer. I took my 2010 ford f-150 in and it was determined the wiring harness was defective. Well great...900$ to get if fixed. Not covered under warranty. Truck will not start without it. Wow, I use to love fords... Never again will I purchase a ford of any kind. Thanks.
