Backup camera stopped functioning properly. This vehicle has not been recalled although a lot of other from the same model year have for this issue, I believe it is more widespread than ford is claiming.

Every time I start my vehicle 2 error messages appear on the instrument cluster saying crash dectection camera has malfunction and that crash detection has been disabled. Ford dealership says they can’t fix it and that I am stuck with it like that. They have tried blaming it on safelite for replacing the windshield with a lower quality windshield.

Due to a poor electrical connection, the rearview camera intermittently displays a distorted image. As such, the vehicle fails to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard number 111 "Rear Visibility".

I've been dealing with a vibration/shaking in my factory driver side mirror at high speeds and on bumpy roads since I got my truck in May 2019 (over three years). No issue on the passenger side. I've dealt with it off and on with the dealer as time and life have allowed. Currently I'm on my fourth mirror and have a case manager from Ford corporate. I have attached some of my correspondence with them for your reference. My problem is that the driver side shaking is very bad. It's distracting at high speeds and at night when headlights are shining behind you, it can be like a light show in the corner of your eye while driving. After much trial and error, I believe the vibration is coming from the articulation point between where the arm that comes off the truck connects with the arm that supports the mirror. Where it folds in basically. There isn't anything that can be adjusted, that particular area is all enclosed. I'm on my second dealer after the first claimed the mirror was fine. I took the truck for a drive with the foreman at the new dealer who confirmed he could see the issue. They ordered me a new mirror again and after installing it sure enough the new one shakes just like the prior ones have. The dealer said they had a regional service tech from Ford drive it after the new mirror went on and this person told them the shaking was normal. I'm talking with the case manager from Ford also and they are investigating what to do since there's clearly (in my opinion) some sort of defect with this part but no recall or fix has been made to my knowledge. I may be elevated to their legal team. At issue currently, I have asked my case manager from Ford whether they can have someone such as an engineer or safety team examine the part and assess whether the mirror design is faulty but they have no one in their company. The case Manager claims to not know if Ford has a team like this. The dealerships didn't design the part so they can't assess whether it's flawed.

When accelerating the transmission will grind in neutral. Let of gas and will finally shift in gear. Happened 2 years ago when I bought it new. Now 3 times in the last 2 months. Ford dealers where I live don't have transmission mechanics. Shifts all over the place and has metal rattling noise. Unsafe to drive with just lest then 30k miles.

My electrical system failed and then caught fire. The entire situation started 4 days ago where my "dome" or "cargo" light kept turning on even though the car was off. 3 days ago my alarm would go off every 15 minutes until I unplugged the battery. I disconnected the battery over night hoping to reset the computer. After reconnecting the battery I got a rear "LEFT REAR door ajar" message on the dash. After inspecting the sensor and wiring harness in LEFT REAR door, I found no issue. However, now "FRONT LEFT door ajar" message appeared on dash along with "LEFT REAR door ajar." Also a litany of other warning lights involving cameras, emergancy braking, etc. came on. While attempting to drive to dealership to have them inspect the issue. The wiring harness behind the back seat on the RIGHT SIDE of the vehicle began smoking. Smoke began billowing from behind the seatbelt opening in the plastic trim on the backside of the door frame.

warning light comes on intermittently . Took to ford dealer and was told aftermarket bug deflecter was causing the issue. My co worker has the same exact vehicle without deflector and has the same problem. My vehicle has only 22000 miles and this has being an ongoing issue from since 2019. They will not honor their warranty and was told to take it back to the ford dealer i bought it from. This is a safety issue because it startles you when it goes off and you are nowhere close to a vehicle.

on 3/6/2020 I was in a serious car accident in the vehicle. which required surgeries for not only myself but also other drivers on the road. The driver air bags did not deploy, the turck was totaled and had body damage around the entire vehicle. There was a blood stain from my head hitting the driver door window but no air bag deployment. The gas pedal was not attached when reviewing the photos taken. The collision detection did not detect. we have asked Ford Motor Company to come and look at the car as it has been in a protective hold but the response from FMC was that due to covid they would not send anyone and we were left on out own. There were no warning messages, lamps, lights or indicators prior to the collision.

While driving down a two lane street, a van ran in front of me causing me to T-bone that vehicle. The advance warning did not activate, the brakes did not automatically activate, and worst, the air bag did not deploy causing me some injuries.

The collision warning appears random and not even close to a vehicle. I’m Alamo experience problems with the power train (truck jerks) and not other problems. I have been having the same problems since 2020. My truck is at the dealership and now Ford engineers are involved because the trucks has multiple codes and unable to figure out the problem. My truck has been at the dealership since May 17-June 1st and June 7 to current.

Advanced collision warning works. But, the braking has never kicked in at all ever. I have seen this issue 4 or 5 times in the last year.

My truck went 3 ford locations and no one really knows why the safety breaks do not work. They claim the car miss the ccm, they have no other codes or guidelines to make it work. The pre-ass collision rarely activates and the brakes does not apply. The auto start stop also is not longer working

Ford recalls 600,000-plus vehicles to fix backup cameras included the 2020 f-150 but not the 2019 f-150. My vehicle is experiencing the same issues. In fact the cameras have been replaced by the dealer 7 times and they are still not working. I feel this should be covered under the same recall as the 2020s

In motion, interstate highway merge lane. I have a 2019 ford f150 equipped with a pre-collision avoidance system. The vehicle mileage is approximately 12,500. I purchased the vehicle new. During my vehicle ownership the collision avoidance system has always been set to 'apply braking' and alert set to 'high' the system has alerted on multiple occasions, however the aeb never engaged the brakes. I was recently in a collision, while the system alerted, and should have engaged the aeb. The pre-collision aeb did not apply the brakes. The collision was minor; the pre-collision aeb system failed. Other concerns for consideration. If the pre-collision system can fail, could the system also apply brakes when there is no danger of a collision. A failed system is a failed system. I would greatly appreciate a response and assurance from ford motor corporation; before I have the damage repaired, I would like ford to inspect the system, provide a data history report from my vehicle; and assurance the pre-collision system is functioning as designed before I have the vehicle repaired.

While driving the vehicle on a city street it started to accelerate on it's own and I had to slam on the breaks because of it doing that. Again one december 20th 2019 it did it again. I dont know what's causing it to be doing that but I've taking it to the dealership and nothing can be found wrong.

On dec 9 while taking off from the traffic light driving at around 5mph my truck suddenly did not accelerate.., the stability control warning light, brakes warning light and the airbag warning light came on. I almost got into an accident as I did not expect my truck to suddenly not accelerate. At this time the truck would only drive at 5mph. Drove to the dealer at 5 MPH and they cannot replicate the problem. On dec 10 it all happened again. Suddenly the truck will not accelerate and again almost got into an accident. Today for the third time it happened again. On each occasion the dealer cannot replicate the problem however they did remove codes not pertaining to the symptoms.

On tuesday 11/5/19, we were traveling on a highway at around 45 MPH when I decelerated to make a right hand turn onto a city street. I had accelerated back up to around 30 MPH when I cross over a relatively smooth railroad crossing at a slight left hand turn. Immediately the information center on the console start displaying multiple alerts and the vehicle started decelerating. While the engine did not cut off, there was no power to the powertrain and eventually we rolled to a stop on the side of the road. The vehicle continued to fire alerts. The only way to stop them was to turn the vehicle off. The messages still fired so I opened and closed the door. I restarted the vehicle with no problem and the alert messages had ceased. I drove the vehicle back to the house (approximately 4 miles) at highway speed with no issue. We took the vehicle to the dealership then next day (26 miles) with no issue. Fortunately, our ford pass app had captured all the alerts and, after a couple of days, the dealership replaced a gas pedal position sensor. We picked the truck up on friday and it worked fine until the next day. We were decelerating from highway speeds on the highway to turn left onto a side road. We hit a small hump where the side road meets the highway and again the alerts starting firing and the truck lost propulsion. Again, the engine did not turn off and the only remedy was to turn it off and back on. We plan on taking the vehicle back to the dealership but would like for ford to assess this problem as it seems to be beyond the dealership's capabilities to fix the issue. Since several of the alerts represented loss of safety functions including brakes, traction control, powertrain failure, and others we feel this issue represents a safety issue that ford needs to diagnose and fix. Several of the f150 forums have shown other users having the same issue.

Tl* the contact owns a 2019 ford f-150. While driving approximately 60 MPH, the contact noticed that the pre-collision automatic braking system failed to operate without warning. The contact called ford of boerne at 210‑920‑3023 (located at 31480 I-10, boerne, tx 78006) and scheduled an appointment with the technician. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was 150. *as consumer stated my complaint is that the forward collision response system and automatic braking do not work. Upon my visit to the dealer they told me there is no way to check the system to see if it works (and this information supposedly came from ford engineers). Therefore, the system is not capable of being tested, the system is not fail-safe of errors, the system is incapable of demonstrating repeat front collision warning and emergency braking.
