The tailgate is coming down while driving all by its self. It has already been crushed by a trailer that was being pulled and ford will not cover the cost of the replacement
2018 Ford F-250 SD body complaints
Page 2 of 2: complaints 11 to 16 of 16, newest first, as owners wrote them.
While putting my f250 in gear (drive), the truck tailgate was automatically opened, which then crunched into my goose neck trailer when making a right hand turn. The tail gate has opened 3 time, without user intervention, in the first 6 weeks I've owned the vehicle.
2018 ford f-250 was parked with engine off when fire started under the interior cabin. Fire spread through-out the vehicle and completely engulfed the truck within minutes. Complete burn
Truck had 12,000 miles on it and I had it for 9 months, got a musty smell coming from somewhere couldn't figure it out brought it to the dealer 2 times, they said it had no water leak, so I didn't my own test I noticed the back carpet wet, ripped the backseat out and noticed water pouring in from the louvers in the backside of the cab, dealer had to rake bed off and replace both louvers
3 times my tailgate has opened spontaneously. Twice while driving in rain on a highway, and once while driving in snow in town. I have been unable to replicate the problem myself. It seems to be random. I have 6000 miles on the vehicle now.
Truck has auto tailgate release. Truck was stationary. The tailgate has dropped / released twice by itself. Tailgate released and dropped while truck was not in park. One time this occured when I released the parking brake. When this happens I need to exit and close the tailgate. Concerned that when this happens cargo could drop out onto the road and cause an accident and or cargo could be stolen from the truck bed.
