| Date | Component | Summary | Severity | Mileage |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Oct 2024 | VISIBILITY/WIPER | The contact owns a 2024 Ford F-150. The contact stated while operating the vehicle, water from the windshield wiper reservoir had leaked into the engine compartment and onto the engine and electrical components inside the engine compartment. The cause of the failure was not yet determined. The manufacturer and local dealer were notified of the failure, but no assistance was offered. The failure mileage was 20. | Crash: No Fire: No | 20 |
| Aug 2024 | POWER TRAIN | wastegate rattle with no repair from dealer | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| Aug 2024 | AIR BAGS | At approximately 6:20 PM on Friday, July 26, 2024 airbags exploded on a Ford F-150 while it was on the assembly line (Chassis Line 5) at Ford Motor Company's Dearborn Truck Plant (DTP). Two hourly employees, one of them in the driver's seat, were working on the truck at the time and both were sent to an area hospital for treatment. The line was stopped, but only for about 30-40 minutes. By 7 PM it was running again until the conclusion of our scheduled ten-hour day, which occurred at 4:30 AM. The truck could not be removed from the line where the explosion had happened, so it had to be run all the way to the end of Chassis Line 7, where it was pushed off. Employees were extremely angry, to put it mildly, and concerned about another occurrence. I reported this to the Michigan Occupational Safety and Health Administration (MIOSHA) on Monday, July 29, 2024. Their complaint number is 2193285. | Crash: No Fire: No Injuries: 2 Medical attention | Unknown |
| Jul 2024 | SERVICE BRAKES | Twice when opening the drivers door, my 2024 Ford F-150 Raptor V6 has chimed and then displayed “Brake System Failure”. Starting the truck, shutting off the motor and locking/unlocking the drivers door appears to clear the message. The local Ford dealership updated the software and believed it corrected the issue. Today, I drove approximately 30 miles, shut off the engine, locked the door and had lunch. When entering the truck again, I got an alert chime and the dashboard had an error reading “Parking Brake Failure”. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| Jul 2024 | ELECTRICAL SYSTEM | Not 5 minutes ago I reported an issue to NHTSA regarding a 2024 Ford F-150 V6 Raptor. Just as I was submitting the form, I got an alert that remote features are disabled to preserve battery. The error texted to my phone states: “Don't worry though, nothing is wrong. This happens automatically when you haven't started your vehicle for a period of time.” I am not understanding why an error related to not driving recently would appear, I just drove about 70 miles round trip and have been home less than 30 minutes. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| Jun 2024 | FORWARD COLLISION AVOIDANCE | The contact leases a 2024 Ford F-150. The contact stated that the vehicle was under a trial subscription for the driver assistance system BlueCruise, which included the driver-attention system. The contact stated that while driving at night and wearing his medical eyeglasses, the BlueCruise driver-attention system failed to see through the contact's eyeglasses and could not determine that the contact was awake, which caused the vehicle to jerk several times. Additionally, the messages "Watch the Road" and "Resume Control" were displayed, and the hazard lights were engaged. The contact stated that the BlueCruise system then disengaged independently, causing the Adaptive Cruise Control, the Lake Keep Assist, and the Lane Centering Assist to disengage. The contact stated that the failure had been recurring while driving. The contact stated that the BlueCruise system automatically engaged when the Adaptive Cruise Control mode was engaged and could not be overridden. The dealer was notified of the failure and referred the contact to the manufacturer for assistance. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the failure and referred the contact to the dealer for assistance. The failure mileage was approximately 100. | Crash: No Fire: No | 100 |
| Jun 2024 | VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL,FORWARD COLLISION AVOIDANCE | Multiple times the acceleration has stuck and would not release when hitting the brakes. I have to stick my foot under the accelerator and lift the petal to get acceleration to stop. Without physically lifting the petal it would appear this continues indefinitely. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| Jun 2024 | UNKNOWN OR OTHER | After running for an extended period of time, the heating/cooling vents stop blowing air. If this happens while the windshield is icing up or fogging and the defrost vent isn't blowing air, this could be catastrophic. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| May 2024 | FORWARD COLLISION AVOIDANCE,LANE DEPARTURE | Blue Cruise cannot see thru my glasses at night and constantly disengages the Cruise Control. This is currently under a trial subscription and cannot be cancelled nor can you override this feature without disengaging Lane Departure or Lane Centering, both of which are “standard” features. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
