2010 Ford F-150

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2010 FORD F-150. WHILE DRIVING AT 10 MPH WITH THE DEFROSTER ACTIVATED, THE CONTACT HEARD A LOUD NOISE COMING FROM THE REAR OF THE VEHICLE. UPON FURTHER INSPECTION, THE CONTACT NOTICED THAT THE REAR PASSENGER'S SIDE WINDOW HAD SHATTERED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 55,650.

WAS DRIVING MY 2010 FORD F150, TURNED ON REAR WINDOW DEFROSTER. JUST TOOK OFF FROM STOP SIGN AND IT SOUNDED LIKE A SHOTGUN GOING OFF. STOPPED AND MY REAR WINDOW WAS SHATTERED. WAS GOING LESS THEN 10 MPH. IS THERE ANY RECALL ON THIS? NOW I HAVE TO FILE A INCIDENT REPORT WITH MY INSURANCE COMPANY AND I DID NOTHING TO CAUSE THE WINDOW TO SHATTER. IF THERE IS NO RECALL WHY NOT !!!!!

WHILE DRIVING TO WORK ON A VERY COLD MORNING, WITH THE DEFROSTERS ON BOTH FRONT AND BACK. I SUDDENLY HEARD A VERY LOUD POP, THEN UPON CHECKING MY REAR VIEW MIRROR I NOTICES THAT MY PASSENGER SIDE OF THE REAR WINDOW WAS SHATTER. ALL OF THE GLASS WAS STILL IN PLACE, BUT THE GLASS LOOKED A VERY TIGHT SPIDERS WEB. I CALLED MY LOCAL FORD DEALER ABOUT THE ISSUE AND WAS TOLD THAT BROKEN GLASS IS NOT COVERED. AFTER THE INCIDENCE I DID SOME RESEARCH AND FOUND THAT MANY OTHERS HAVE HAD THE SAME PROBLEM ON MANY MODEL YEARS OF THE F-150 TO INCLUDE MY 2010 F-150 LARIAT. IT ENDED UP COSTING ME $661.99 OUT OF MY POCKET TO FIX A KNOW PROBLEM WITH THE REAR GLASS.

ABOUT 6:30 PM WAS DRIVING HOME ON I695 ABOUT 65 MPH AND MY BRAKES FAILED I HIT THE BRAKES AND I HAD NO BRAKES WENT ALL THE WAY TO THE FLOOR I COULD NOT STOP MY TRUCK. MY FRONT LEFT WHEEL WAS SMOKING SO I ALMOST HIT 2 CARS TRYING TO GET OVER I HAD TO RUN OFF THE ROAD TO GET MY TRUCK TO STOP. I WANT TO KNOW IF ANYONE ELSE HAD A PROBLEM WITH THERE BRAKES

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2010 FORD F-150. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 70 MPH, THE VEHICLE SUDDENLY STALLED. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO THE DEALER WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE MAIN HARNESS CABLE CONNECTION TO THE FUSE BOX OVERHEATED AND MALFUNCTIONED. THE HARNESS WAS REPLACED, BUT THE FAILURE RECURRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE VIN WAS NOT AVAILABLE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS NOT AVAILABLE.

WIRING HARNESS ON 2010 FORD F-150 4X4 BURNS UP AT FUSE BOX. ORIGINAL HARNESS WAS REPLACED BY DEALER IN 2013. SECOND HARNESS BURNT UP AT FUSE BOX AFTER 16 MONTHS. WAITING FOR NEW HARNESS AT PRESENT TIME. IT IS THE FUEL PUMP CONNECTION THAT IS BURNING UP IN THE BOX BY THE FUSE. WHEN THE HARNESS BURNS THROUGH, THE VEHICLE AUTOMATICALLY STOPS, EVEN WHILE IN MOTION. THIS CONSTITUTES A SAFETY HAZARD AS NO NOTICE OCCURS BEFORE BURN UP. NO WARNING LIGHTS APPEAR ON DASH TO WARN OF THIS. NOTHING HAS BEEN DONE TO CORRECT THE FAILURE, OTHER THAN REPLACING THE WIRE HARNESS THAT IS BURNING UP. THEY HAVE DONE NOTHING TO CORRECT THE REASON FOR THE BURN UP. ALL THAT HAS BEEN DONE IS REPLACEMENT OF THE PART THAT IS DAMAGED.. HAVE BEEN WAITING FOR OVER A MONTH FOR PARTS. OTHER VEHICLES AT THE DEALERSHIP ARE ALSO EXPERIENCING THIS SAME ISSUE.

AFTER THE TRUCK SITS FOR EIGHT TO 10 HOURS, WHEN I START IT UP I HAVE A VERY HARD BRAKE PEDAL AND NO BRAKES. THIS HAPPENS WHEN I BACK OUT OF THE GARAGE ON A SLIGHT DECLINE. IF I STAND ON THE BRAKE WITH BOTH FEET IT EVENTUALLY BEGINS TO WORK. THERE WERE NO DASHBOARD WARNINGS BEFORE I PULLED OUT OF THE GARAGE. THIS FAILURE WAS VERY FRIGHTENING. IMAGINE THE FEELING OF NO BRAKES! OMG! I WAS HEADED FOR THE NEIGHBOR'S YARD AND BIG TREE! I PLAN TO PURSUE REPAIR OF THIS WITH MY LOCAL SERVICE PEOPLE. MY RESEARCH NARROWED TO AN "ELECTRIC VACUUM ASSIST PUMP" ISSUE BEING INVESTIGATED BY THE NHTSB WHICH SOUNDS EXACTLY LIKE WHAT'S HAPPENED TO ME.

AFTER TAKING MY VEHICLE IN TO THE SHOP FOR A ROUTINE SAFETY INSPECTION, I'VE RECEIVED A CALL THAT MY F-150 FAILED BECAUSE OF AN AIR BAG MALFUNCTION. AFTER DOING RESEARCH, I HAVE FOUND OUT THAT MANY VEHICLES WITH AIR BAG MALFUNCTIONS HAVE BEEN RECALLED. I FEEL THAT THIS IS NOT A CASE OF NORMAL WEAR AND TEAR FROM THE OWNER BUT A COMPANY MALFUNCTION. I AM SUPPOSE TO PAY $1300 FOR A REPAIR THAT I HAVE NO CONTROL OVER AND ONE THAT HAS BEEN RECALLED IN SO MANY VEHICLES? I FIND THIS TO BE UNACCEPTABLE!
