2007 Ford F-150 problems

“I have had a coolant leak but haven't been able to find it until now. It is below the thermostat housing, between the manifolds and the metal tube that hooks the bottom of the thermostat to the manifold. I know there is a recall issued for this but it doesn't seem to come up on my truck. In my opinion it should.”

“The contact owned a 2007 Ford F-150. The contact stated that when depressing the accelerator pedal while in reverse, the vehicle suddenly accelerated, crossing a field, and crashing into a nearby building, where the vehicle came to a stop. The contact sustained neck injuries, and the front passenger sustained neck injuries as well. The contact did not seek medical attention; however, they intended to do so in the future. The air bags did not deploy. A police report was filed. The rear end of the vehicle was damaged. The vehicle was driven home. The vehicle was taken to Collision Center who diagnosed that the rear of the vehicle needed extensive bodywork and determined the vehicle was totaled. The manufacturer was not informed of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 300,000. The VIN was not available.”

“Speedometer sticks at 60 mph on idle or when it’s turned off. Does not Reflect actual speed of car. There are multiple cars with F150 with the similar complaint”

The vehicle was taken to the tire retailer, where it was determined that the rear tires were defective and needed to be replaced. The contact replaced both rear tires. The tire manufacturer was made aware of the failure, but no assistance was provided. The tire failure mileage was unknown. The vehicle failure mileage was 220,000. The VIN was unavailable.”

“WENT TO HAVE TRUCK TUNED UP--MECHANIC WOULD NOT EVEN TOUCH SPARK PLUGS BECAUSE THEY BREAK OFF AND THE ENTIRE HEAD HAS TO BE REMOVED FOR REPAIR. TOLD US TUNE UP WOULD BE VERY EXPENSIVE AND IF THEY BROKE IT WOULD BE EVEN HIGH. FROM WHAT I WAS TOLD IF SPARK PLUG IS BAD IT CAN RESULT IN FAILURE OF CATALYTIC CONVERT AND RESULT IN A CAR FIRE. WILL IT TAKE A DEATH BEFORE FORD DOES A RECALL HOW DO CONSUMERS MAINTAIN A VEHICLE WHEN AND AUTHORIZED MECHANIC WILL NOT DO THE WORK. *TR”

“The fuel module failed and the 5,4l Triton engine stopped running. There was no power steering or power brakes in the middle of the fast lane on the interstate. This was a safety critical walk home. The component was disposed of. The vehicle stopped in the fast lane. Possibility to be hit from behind, Ford denied my claim. There were no warnings of the failure. Galvanic corrosion.”
