| Jan 2026 | EXTERIOR LIGHTING | My life was put at risk because of an oncoming Ford F-150. The placement and brightness of the headlights are such that oncoming drivers are immediately blinded and unable to see anything as the vehicle approaches and passes. I was nearly run off the road because I was completely blinded by the brightness if the headlights. I almost crashed into a tree. I barely escaped with my life intact. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |

| Jan 2026 | EXTERIOR LIGHTING | KohlerWI53044United States[XXX]"Something needs to be done about this issue. It has only been getting worse over the years. There are also people now replacing more of their old headlights with these LEDs with out purchasing and replacing the reflectors; without replacing those they actually turn out to be worse than the headlights on these new vehicles that are just as bad or worse. Need to get recalls out on these newer vehicles. Own a car that is almost not possible to drive at night due to this issue. Have almost been in an accident every week being on second shift due to this issue. It is now getting so bad with these newer vehicles to the point we are even having issues driving a fullsize truck at night which has never happened to us in our 15 years of driving. The brights are also an issue as well cause of people not being able to shut them off while driving past you or passing. Please do something about this already. It really is out of hand."

| Jan 2026 | EXTERIOR LIGHTING | DanvilleVA24543-0062United States1/1/2026"These lights are extremely blinding and have been the specific cause of several near accidents by a friend when I was a passenger. They should be outlawed outright. Period. Jerk drivers nowadays don't bother to dim them either. They should also force manufacturers to put all of them at the same height from the road, most especially those huge pickups that jerks drive to make themselves proud and better than everyone else, that have billion candlepower headlights blasting in your rear view mirrors that blinds everything, the road, your dashboard, your windshield, the interior of your car, as well as in the front of your face. Respectfully submitted, except for the jerk idiots who don't dim their lights even when the low lights are too bright to start with.

| Jan 2026 | EXTERIOR LIGHTING | As I am driving at night, I am frequently blinded by excessively intense headlights, very often those on large pickup trucks like the F150. If I blink my high beams at them, the blink back with their even more intense high beams! It is obvious that the 1) the low beams are far too bright for oncoming drivers and 2) that the low beams are not aimed at the road, but at the windshields of oncoming cars. This temporarily blinding of oncoming drivers is very problematic, especially for drivers with cataracts that have not yet been treated. My wife has had to stop driving at night. The NHTSA should adopt maximum brightness standards and the police should enforce them with tickets and fines for those who violate these standards. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| Jan 2026 | EXTERIOR LIGHTING | The headlights are incredibly bright and I get many complaints about how bright they are. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| Jan 2026 | EXTERIOR LIGHTING | LED headlights from multiple oncoming vehicles have shined very brightly in my eyes that I've almost gone off the road more than a couple times. They don't need to be so bright! And I don't think a lot of drivers who have them really care how it affects other drivers. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| Jan 2026 | EXTERIOR LIGHTING | LeanderTX78641United States12/30/2025"Due to the BLINDING headlights of a truck, I almost hit a pedestrian who was wearing a reflective vest. The headlights if the truck were so bright, that the light canceled out the reflective tape on the pedestrians vest. BAN THESE BLINDING HEADLIGHTS." | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| Dec 2025 | EXTERIOR LIGHTING | The headlights on this truck are fogging up every time it rains. Ford says it’s “normal”. Fogging of headlights seems like a no brainer safety issue. These are LED headlights so the lights don’t get warm/don’t reduce fogging with heat. Fords technical service bulletin says this is acceptable fogging. I know of no other vehicle that has fogging headlights. This is a known issue for 2024/2025 Ford F150. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| Dec 2025 | ELECTRICAL SYSTEM | Digital dash randomly goes out and stops working. Can’t see speed or any information | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| Dec 2025 | POWER TRAIN | The contact owns a 2024 Ford F-150. The contact received notification of NHTSA Campaign Number: 25V512000 (POWER TRAIN); however, the part to do the recall repair was not yet available. The local dealer was contacted. The contact stated that the manufacturer had exceeded a reasonable amount of time for the recall repair. The manufacturer was made aware of the issue. The contact had not experienced a failure. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| Dec 2025 | SERVICE BRAKES | Since 28 June 2026, there has been an issue with braking system. I called the local Ford dealer twice and was told there has been no reported brake issues with 2024 Ford F-150. The first time this happened, I was driving on a county (dirt road) and I applied the brakes, and the brakes did not work. Thankfully, there was no traffic and I coasted to a stop. The same problem with the brakes has happened four more times. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| Dec 2025 | UNKNOWN OR OTHER | The rear glass panel of the panoramic sunroof on my 2024 Ford F-150 (approximately 8,800 miles) suddenly and spontaneously shattered while I was driving. There was a single upward-pointing fracture near the front-center of the panel, and the rest of the glass fragmented outward from that point. There was no impact, no debris, no nearby vehicles, and no physical evidence of anything striking the roof or surrounding areas. No objects were found inside the vehicle. The sunroof is available for inspection upon request. This failure created an immediate safety risk. The shattered panel was directly above my two children seated in the rear, and falling glass fragments posed a significant danger of injury. A sudden overhead glass failure also presents a hazard to other drivers if fragments are expelled from the vehicle. There were no signs or symptoms before the breakage. The Ford dealership inspected the vehicle but did not identify any impact damage and did not confirm a cause. The failure has not been reproduced, but I found multiple similar reports from other Ford owners, suggesting this may be consistent with spontaneous internal stress failure of the tempered glass. Given the complete lack of impact evidence and the serious safety risk to occupants and other motorists, I am reporting this as a panoramic sunroof safety defect. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| Dec 2025 | ELECTRICAL SYSTEM | Dashboard is occasionally black when the truck is started. The gauges don't work, and an alarm starts ringing. After a short while the gauges start to appear on the screen one at a time. this has happened several times in the few months that I've owned this truck. I see that a recall has been issued for the 2025 and 2026 Model F150's but it is also happening in my 2024 F150 that I bought new in February 2025. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| Dec 2025 | SUSPENSION | The contact owns a 2024 Ford F-150. The contact stated that soon after purchasing the vehicle, the wrench warning light was displayed on the instrument panel. The contact then received notification of NHTSA Campaign Number: 25V341000 (Suspension); and related the recall to the warning light being illuminated. The contact stated that several appointments were scheduled with the local dealer for the recall repair; however, the dealer failed to service the recall after each visit. The contact was recently informed that the dealer did not have the tool needed to repair the vehicle and was waiting for another dealer to provide the tool for the repair. The manufacturer was notified of the failure but offered no assistance. The vehicle was not repaired. The failure mileage was approximately 1,200. | Crash: No Fire: No | 1,200 |
| Dec 2025 | ENGINE | My vehicle stalls at red lights in traffic. Warning lights tell me to put it in park and restart the engine. It started around July of 2025 just after a year of owning it. First time to service they could not replicate, but two subsequent visits to the dealer has been replicated repeatedly! They changed battery and GSM but failed to fix the problem. Returned it to me and it stalled repeatedly, as many as 4 times in a 20 minute period. I am terrified I will be injured and at some point I’ll not be able to restart it, one attempt took 4 times to try and restart it. Drivers are angered and honk and yell at me and am afraid I will be a victim of road rage or get hit. Started a case (can provide case number)with Ford back in October to buyback under lemon law. They have refused thus far to move forward, even though it has been in service now for a total of 6 weeks for the same problem and has been replicated by a Ford Master Tech and Ford Engineer. They keep telling me the buyback team is looking into it and they do nothing. Service provider called me earlier today and said they have replicated the stalling several more times but at this time have no fix. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| Nov 2025 | VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL,FORWARD COLLISION AVOIDANCE | In 2024 Ford introduced a turn detection in the F-150 (and other Ford vehicles). This feature extends the adaptive cruise control which recognizes speed limit signs and dynamically adjusts the speed control to comply with speed limits. This added Turn Detection, detects curves that have the Yellow highway curve warning signs with the small orange suggested speed limit sign below and automatically slows the vehicle down to at or below the suggested corner speed. The vehicle slowly goes through the curve and then rapidly accelerates out of the curve back the set cruise speed. This causes a huge safety issue especially on highways with higher speed limits where the suggested corner speed is substantially below the general flow of traffic. First Example of safety issue: When driving on a highway with a higher speed limit (especially 60mph or higher) with cruise control set for example to 65mph (speed traffic is naturally flowing at), entering a corner with a suggested speed sign of 55mph causes the vehicle to brake unexpectedly bringing the vehicle from 65mph+ to 52mph rapidly. This unexpected braking cause vehicles following to be caught off guard and in multiple cases almost rear end my truck. Second Example of safety issue: When driving through canyon highways in Colorado where almost every corner has a suggested corner speed, the truck is constantly braking hard into corners and rapidly accelerating out of corners. With the corners so close together in these canyon highways it creates a situation where the truck becomes difficult to steer and keep on the road because of the numerous and rapid speed changes which is very dangerous in a canyon environment. This issue has been problematic since I purchased the truck new, this behavior is acknowledged by Ford when I took it into the dealership to get it addressed and they have indicated that the functionality is working correctly and there is nothing they can do to correct it even though it's a safety issue. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
