It's the same issue as Recall Notice 22S02/the federal safety agency Recall 22v011. The replacement part is MR3Z-7583-A 1X ($2-$5 part with 30 second install), but they do not show it under parts for my truck, they would prefer to sell me the whole brake pedal assembly ($50+ part and labor probably diagnosis charge in addition to part replacement). The part becomes brittle and breaks. This caused dead battery, 5 hours from home, due to lights staying on, allowed me to start and put truck into gear without touching the brake, lost acceleration between 45 & 50 mph, cruise control would not turn on and message presents that hill assist is not available.

LED headlamps become too dim to drive at night. 1. Dealerships may recommend headlamp unit replacement (around $3000USD). 2. However, uniform dimness in both lamps indicates an upstream electrical issue. 3. Recent service inspection (Invoice #[XXX] at AutoNation Ford in Bellevue, WA) indicated that all existing diagnostic procedures to inspect voltage and battery health came up negative, but they have no process to diagnose the control unit or measure the candle output of the headlamp projectors. 4. Case #[XXX] has been opened up with Ford to ask engineering to develop a procedure to diagnose, repair, and potentially issue a recall with the part.

I don’t know if this question qualifies in this section but I’m just trying to find out why my 12v outlets in my truck are not working and also the plug-in for my trailer hitch, neither of them are working. To the best of my knowledge I’ve checked fuses and couldn’t see anything blown. Thank you

Drive in the interstate I felt something tap my shoe and at the same time cruise control deactivated and the hill assist warning light come on. I then tried to accelerate and for a second there nothing happened and then acceleration came back on and it would cut out like traction control is kicking in. Pulled over on to the side of the interstate and found a broken plastic pin looks like a body panel pin on the floormatt. Me being a mechanic something told me to look at my brake light to see if there being activated with no pressure on the brake pedal . The lights were on telling me that this pin had to do something with the brake pedal and the brake light switch. Once I looked under the dash, I did find that this pin came from the brake pedal and was no longer pushing on the brake switch and that's what actually cause my cruise control to shut off and traction control kick in as I were driving on innerstate. I was able to temporarily fix the issue was a body panel pin that I by lock had in my glove box from other projects and was able to get back on the road and make it home .the issue is the this original plastic piece is a certain thickness that if you replace it with a thinner piece you still have the same problem and if you get this to thick you have to push harder on the brake pedal to activate the brake lights and deactivate crouse control, and that's were it can get scary going 70 MPH on the interstate and not being able to deactivate the crouse connector. So I call the local ford parts store and the issue is that this plastic pin can not be purchased by itself and that this pin has to be purchased with a $150 pedal. So I looked on the internet to see if maybe this is an issue with this vehicle and I found multiple complaints of the same issue and no recall form ford for this issue witch in my opinion it's a safety issue. 2015 f-150 with 76000 miles.
