My 2015 f150 with 100,700 miles on it completely stalled on me while pulling into traffic. I lost all control and had no throttle response and the truck went into idle mode and would not do anything until I put in park and then turned the truck off and then restarted the truck. Ran my codes and noticed that it showed a p2112 code which was a fault with the throttle body response. This caused my truck to completely lose all function in the middle of a busy intersection with cross traffic. Luckily there were people turning to prevent an 18 wheeler from coming towards me and the speed limit of 55 MPH. This is totally unacceptable for this to just shutdown like this and cause serious danger for myself and those driving around me. After reading online it seems that this is a common problem with these throttle body assembly's. This is not ok!!!! I replaced the throttle body myself without paying $800 at the ford dealership. This has to be addressed for safety reasons.

Corroded body control module and wiring. Ford technicians unable to diagnose cause. Caused vehicle to go into limp mode while driving in an unsafe manner.
Tl* the contact owns a 2015 ford f-150. While passing an 18-wheeler on the right side of the road at highway speeds, the adaptive cruise control activated and the collision warning with brake support feature engaged without warning. The failure occurred twice and caused the vehicle to come to a complete stop. The contact felt that the sensors or an electrical fault within the vehicle could be affecting the adaptive cruise control and collision warning with brake support, which could cause a crash. The dealer (autonation ford frisco, 6850 tx-121, frisco, tx 75034, 1-(972) 763-5523) was notified and stated that there was no way to replicate the failure without a diagnostic trouble code. The dealer did not test drive the vehicle. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was notified and advised the contact to call a dealer. The failure mileage was not available.
Vehicle suddenly lost power while driving in traffic. Display slowed traction control malfunction, hill assist malfunction and engine trouble light illuminated. Loss of power steering and brakes. Once vehicle was shut off it then restarted a minute later as if nothing happened.
Tl* the contact owns a 2015 ford f-150. The contact stated that the steering wheel became extremely tight when attempting to turn. The eps, electronic stability, and traction control warning indicators flashed, and the steering wheel seized. The vehicle was unable to be driven. The contact had to apply extreme force to turn the steering wheel. The vehicle was pulled over to the side of the road, shut off the engine, and restarted the vehicle. The vehicle was coasted to the dealer (elder ford, 777 john r rd, troy, mi 48083, (888) 467-5023) where it was diagnosed that the steering column, steering sensor, sleeve, and steering unit needed to be replaced due to the intermediate shaft internally fracturing. The dealer provided a loaner vehicle. The vehicle was not included in the federal safety agency campaign number: 15v279000 (steering) and the federal safety agency action number: aq17001 (steering). The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The VIN was not available. The approximate failure mileage was 36,000.
On oct 23, 2017 my 2015 ford f150 steering locked while driving on california highway 273. Stopped truck and had to force steering wheel hard to the right to get steering to break loose. Also, all electric devices on steering wheel failed to operate. Display on dash flashed many different system failures. Unable to turn off key until steering wheel broke loose. On the morning of oct 24, 2017 all worked okay but took truck to dealer.
Tl* the contact owns a 2015 ford f-150. While driving beside a large vehicle, the vehicle falsely anticipated a collision and independently applied the brakes. The contact stated that the failure occurred while the adaptive cruise control was not activated. The dealer was not contacted. The manufacturer was notified of the failure and stated that the VIN was not included in the federal safety agency campaign number: 15v614000 (forward collision avoidance) and referred the contact to the federal safety agency. The failure mileage was approximately 32,000.
On 2/23/2017 while driving 50-55 MPH on an expressway, the vehicle throttle became unresponsive. The tachometer still showed about 1,000 rpms, dash lights began illuminating, advancetrac was disabled, hill start assist was disabled, the wrench light enabled and a check manual light enabled. There also was a hard shift or clunk sound that came from the transmission. After shifting the truck into neutral while coasting, I attempted to turn off and restart the engine. Engine successfully restarted, but the throttle remained unresponsive and all warning lights mentioned above returned. I pulled the truck safely to the side of the highway, and attempted to restart again. This time the engine sputtered and then I turned it off. Next I removed the key, opened the door, closed the door, locked the truck, waited for the accessory lights to turn off, unlocked the truck, opened and closed the door and then restarted, and the truck seemed to clear the problem. I took the truck to the dealer and they later told me the truck is not storing any error codes in it's memory.
Electric throttle body repair. 16b32 is the code. My truck shut off on me on the highway almost hurting or killing me. This is a brand new vehicle I bought 8 months ago 8000 miles.
Tl* the contact owns a 2015 ford f-150. While driving approximately 70 MPH and attempting to overtake a trailer, the forward collision warning indicator illuminated. The vehicle braked unexpectedly while on adaptive cruise control. The vehicle was taken to a local dealer who was unable to diagnose the failure. The technician stated that the vehicle was not included in a recall. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure and stated that the vehicle was not included in a recall. The failure did not recur. The failure mileage was approximately 10,500.
Driving on interrstate 70 at 65 MPH, I had several alerts begin flashing ranging from check 4x4, hill assist failure, 2h, parking brake and many more. In addition I lost power steering, brake lights and turn signals. I was able to drive truck home. This happened 4 more times. I called dealer and they suggested I drive it to their establishment some 20 miles away. I did not feel safe and contacted roadside assistance to tow the truck. I had to beg for a loaner one week later I received a call stating the technician needed to drive the truck to see if the same alerts happened even though they found 12 plus alerts when they analyzed the truck in their shop. I allowed this to occur as I wanted answers. I received a call today stating they had found the problem, a wire had became corroded in the steering column causing all the alerts to malfunction. They are replacing the entire column and my truck will be completed by tuesday. I had purchased this truck just 4 months prior and have been a loyal ford customer for 30+ years.
My truck's collision avoidance / adaptive cruise control has false sensing when passing large heavy duty trucks. At 50-75mph with someone right behind you, this can be very dangerous. If a heavy duty truck is one or two lanes to your right and you are passing them with no one in front of you, the radar sensor senses incorrectly and hits the brakes, flashes the red collision avoidance light and the tone goes off. I've had this happen at least 30 times since I bought the truck brand new.. 4-5 times I've almost been rear ended. It doesn't do it with all semi's, so it's very unexpected. I've taken it to multiple ford dealers, and they've attempted repairs at least 5 times now. Problem is still not fixed and it's not safe to drive wondering when it will be applying the brakes out of nowhere for no reason. It's also not safe to let someone else drive who is unaware of the issue. This is similar to the ford recall 15s29 and the federal safety agency 15v614000, however, my vehicle was manufactured feb 2015.
My 2015 ford f150 platinum has had the ford recall 15s29 applied sept 30, 2015. The above mentioned 2015 ford f150 platinum has since had the original problem, hard braking while passing a semi trailer while on the interstate at interstate speeds. This serious event happened oct 2, 2015. The recall did not fix the problem. The hard braking is a very sudden and serious event. It takes the truck from 70 to 55 or less MPH within the time it takes me to react and hit the gas pedal to stop the braking (1 second?). This problem has happened many times since I purchased the vehicle new on may 29, 2015. I have been lucky so far that no one has been close behind me when it has happened. The problem has happened for multiple types of semi trailers, box, tanker, shiny aluminum, painted white, etc. Once, it appeared to happen as I went under an interstate over pass (no vehicles were anywhere near in front of me at the time). I have purchased a car dvr camera, specifically to track this problem, and a problem where the car very frequently says to put my hands on the steering wheel (while they already are). The camera power cable had come out (no recordings) on oct 1, 2015, so I do not have a recording of the post-recall hard braking event. The interstate hard braking events happen to me about once every 500 miles (one time many times in single day). There is no doubt in my mind this problem continues to be a severe and significant safety issue with my 2015 ford f150 platinum. The consumer referenced recall # 15v614000.
Tl* the contact owns a 2015 ford f-150. While driving approximately 55 MPH, the ESC indicator illuminated and the vehicle pulled towards the right. The failure occurred on multiple occasions. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 118,000.
