About April 2017 I noticed a ticking noise coming from the engine area of my truck. I also noticed hesitation when I accelerate and my fuel economy has dropped. There is a distinct jerking sensation when driving. My concern is that the vehicle does not want to accelerate in certain gears and I feel this is a safety concern. My truck has the Ford 5.4L V8 engine and upon my own research, this engine is notorious for the cam phaser going bad, along with other related issues.

Exhaust manifold warping. 2010 Ford F150 FX4 5.4L. Right side manifold warped at 95,000 miles and left side manifold warped at 135,000 miles. Right side replaced for $1,500. Have not done the left side yet. Too expensive. This is a known defect with this model. Should be warranty work.
When applying sync update caused several failure codes to transmission module and transmission servo. Sync module no longer works after applying software update and must be replaced. All transmission and engine codes were cleared. I believe the sync module update caused failure codes and destroyed sync module. Ford dealership cannot explain
While driving (in motion) the engine randomly shuts down causing you to lose both steering and braking power. This happens with no warning and the vehicle is hard to control. Speed does not seem to be a factor but it quits while turning the vehicle either left or right.

Vehicle vibrates and hesitates to accelerate to the point where the truck engine will shut off around 1500 RPM on both highway speed and normal street speed.

Had just completed an oil change in novato, ca at the oil changers. When driving home on the freeway at approximately 65mph the engine lost all power. (stepping on the accelerator had no response and the check engine light came on) I coasted the vehicle onto the shoulder of the highway and came to a complete stop, turning off the engine. Checked the oil plug was still in the oil drain pan and everything looked ok. The vehicle started back up without issue and has been running fine since.
