2022 Ford F-150 problems

“My transmission hard shifts and stalls out. It was also low on fluid in January 2026, but it was not leaking. When pulling out from intersections with oncoming cars the transmission stalled. It has also stalled on the freeway. Yes, a ford dealership confirmed it. No warning lamps. I was told ford probably won’t cover the whole cost of this repair even though it’s a known issue”

“On 10-20-2026 while driving at highway speed of approximately 65 mph on a mountainous curving road, the steering became noticeably hard and the vehicle gave a Steering Assist Fault Service Required warning. Slowing down to a stop to park the steering was very hard. The Warning was dismissed, but reappeared on the dash withing 5-10 miles of driving. After shutting off the Truck for 30 minutes, I drove directly to a Ford Dealership. On the way there, the Steering Assist Fault warning came back on. The truck has 39,206 miles and is just barely out of warranty. The Dealership checked for weak failing 12 volt battery, loose or corroded ground/terminals and software updates and found none of these minor issues. The dealership did diagnose the PSCM was bad. They told me the Fault error code was U3000 and the Power Steering Control Module (PSCM) that is built into the Rack & Pinion steering rack assembly would need to be replaced. This is a Severe Safety Concern where a sudden failure of a primary steering component at 65 mph is a severe safety incident that could cause a catastrophic crash. Because my vehicle is barely out of warranty, and this is a very expensive…”

“The factory daytime running light (DRL) LED signature strip on the front headlight assembly failed prematurely and went completely dark. Because the DRL is integrated into a sealed headlight unit, the individual lighting component cannot be repaired or serviced. Replacing the single failed DRL requires discarding and replacing the entire headlight assembly at an out-of-pocket cost exceeding $1,000 to $1,500.”

“The contact owns a 2022 Ford F-150. The contact received notification of NHTSA Campaign Number: 25V455000 (FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE); however, the part to do the recall repair was unavailable. The local dealer was contacted, and it was confirmed that the part was not yet available. 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.”

“Started truck then we heard a loud pop, similar to a gun shot. Then we heard crackling through the speakers. Audio volume controls were ineffective as well as radio on/off controls. Turned truck off and restarted no pop this time but the crackling continued. I called my local Ford dealer to schedule a service appointment for the next afternoon. Then next day when I was driving the truck to work the crackling continued for several minutes then the sound system went back to normal. That afternoon, 12/4 after work I drove the truck to the dealer I had purchased the truck from to drop it off. I reported the situation to the service advisor and he said since the sound system does not throw codes it would not be able to be diagnosed unless the problem duplicated itself which I would have to leave the truck for an extend period of time.”

“While driving, my 2022 Ford F-150 equipped with the 2.7L EcoBoost experienced abnormal engine operation, a check-engine light, and reduced engine power. The unexpected reduction in available engine power created a safety concern because loss of acceleration or propulsion can be dangerous when merging, crossing traffic, passing, or traveling at highway speeds. The vehicle was inspected and diagnosed by an authorized Ford dealership. The PCM stored DTC P0332, Knock/Combustion Vibration Sensor “B” Circuit Low. The dealer performed Ford Pinpoint Test DG. Testing reportedly found no open circuit, short to ground, short to voltage, or intermittent circuit fault. The dealer determined that the knock-sensor assembly required replacement.The repair involves replacement of Ford knock-sensor assembly FT4Z-12A699-E, which contains both knock sensors. Access to the assembly requires extensive disassembly of engine fuel and cooling-system components. Ford’s service procedure includes removal of both direct-injection fuel rails, draining the cooling system, removal of the coolant pump, and removal of the coolant outlet connector.I am concerned about the possibility of coolant…”
