Truck stalled momentarily while negotiating an intersection. I pulled into a parking lot to check for issues. When I tried to re-start the truck it would turn over but wouldn't start. I checked the owners manual for the procedure to re-set the fuel shut off switch because I thought it may have been activated by something. Truck still would not start after following procedure. I had the truck towed to hunt Ford in franklin ky. A service technician called me the next day to inform me that the fuel pump relay had melted and that Ford had issued a technical bulletin about the issue and a fix for it which included installing an inline fuse to keep the relay from melting again. The repair cost $210 and the service tech told me that my truck was second one that they had fixed with this same issue that day! while it wasn't a safety issue for me, it definitely has the potential to be one.

The truck will down shift while driving. It has happened a few times now. I was driving about 30mph and experienced a drop in power and the gauges started jumping all over. It also dropped to 1st gear when I was on the highway doing 70 mph. It felt like someone threw the E-break. Quick jerking motion. I had to pull over and shut the truck off. Thankfully my family was not in the vehicle and no one was directly behind me. The few other times it happened I noticed something going wrong so I quickly pulled off the road and shut it down. Turning it off seemed to "reset" things and let me get home. I had a diagnostic ran and it coded #4 spark plug and #4 coil. I had both of those replaced - and experienced the same issue the very next day! ran another diagnostic and it coded the same way! took it to a Ford dealership to check it out and their final answer was "needs a new engine". it has 110K miles on it and I bought it less than 1 year ago and it needs a new engine? I have $700 wrapped up in replacing parts that did not need replacing and diagnostics that did not give me a realistic solution. This does not sound like an engine issue- sounds very similar to the recent recall on the 2011-2012 models. Truck is parked in the driveway. No one in my family will be driving it. Hope to hear that Ford recognizes the bigger issue here and steps up to take care of this.

Rear window was rolled down while 2 1/2 year old child had his arm against the interior door, where it meets the bottom of the window. The skin of the child's forearm was sucked into the vehicle's door. Child was trapped until window was rolled back up. Bruising occurred but the skin was not broken. Vehicle was stationary and parked in a lot.

Used remote start on my pickup in below freezing weather at roughly 28. Came out to drive to work and rear driver side back window had spider web cracks throughout the glass.

- Prattsburgh, NY, USA

Rear window shattered while rear defrost was on, in 35 degree temperature. Car was parked and stationary, in covered parking unit, driven 10-miles from home to work. Loud bang heard, and immediately saw the shattered glass in the driver side rear-view window. This has clearly happened many times prior, and this has been attributed to faulty defrost system.

I was driving down a very dangerous highway pass going approximately 65 mph when my engine stalled as random alarms started appearing on my dashboard, then my steering locked from the engine being off. I tried the best I could to get on the shoulder as I had no steering ability and I stepped on the brakes fairly hard. I was lucky because this was the only place in miles with a shoulder. Anywhere else on this road and I could have been seriously injured or died. While on the side of the road I smelled a tiny bit of burning plastic with no problem in sight. I googled what happened on a special forum website for Ford raptor owners and others had the same thing happen with fuse 27. Which is for the fuel pump. So I checked the number 27 fuse and sure enough it had melted, I actually had to take it out of the fuse box in melted pieces with pliers. The fuse melted while driving so the fuel pump shut off causing my engine to stall and steering to lock. Many many others have had his happen and Ford recognizes it as a service bulletin. However this needs to be more then a service bulletin when someone's life could be taken driving the freeway or dangerous road. We were lucky there was no collision, injuries, or fire, however it could have very well caused an electrical fire and if someone was on a crowded freeway in rush hour a collision is almost certain.

Intermittent problems with the rear defrost last couple of months. Then, last night, the temperature was about 20F. I turned rear defrost on and the light for the defroster went out and wouldn't turn back on. A couple of minutes later, I heard a loud bang from the back and the passenger's side stationary window pane was shattered.

- Winnebago, IL, USA

Rear window electric defrost was activated by factory remote start system. Apparent defroster overheat or short circuit caused the left panel of the three panel sliding window to explode, resulting in a loud band and spider webbed panel resulting in glass shards in my child's booster seat. Ford does not acknowledge the problem and provided no assistance at the local dealer or Ford customer service. Truck was stationary at time of event.

- Glastonbury, CT, USA

Remote started my 2013 F-150 raptor and it ran in the drive way for 3-4 min. Started down the road and turned on the rear defrost. After about 2 min, the rear window popped and shattered behind me. After researching, looks to be a known issue that Ford seems to not want to acknowledge. I called them today and the customer service rep acted like he did not know of any past issues. Hopefully this will get the attention it needs soon.

2013 F150 Ford parked outside on driveway. Sunny with temperature roughly 32 degrees Fahrenheit. Remote start used to warm up truck. Walking out to truck when a loud bang/gunshot type of sound happened without warning. Walked around truck and saw that driver's side of the power sliding rear window (3 sections) had started to spider crack. This part of the window then continued to crack until the whole section was spider cracked. (the sharp edges of glass were on the inside of vehicle window.) the vehicle was taken to dealer for evaluation but was told it is out of warranty. The dealer estimated replacement cost is $1,200-1,300 usd. (parts and labor).

I'm requesting the NHTSA investigate F150 accelerator pedals that are placed too closely to the cabin floor vent. The cabin floor vent on the driver side is perpendicular and to the right of the accelerator pedal at a distance of 3.5 inches. My foot is wider than the pedal, so when my foot is resting on the accelerator it is only 1-2 inches from the vent. Since my foot is directly in front of the vent, it blocks all airflow. Setting the floor vents on heat means that hot air blows directly on the outside edge of my right foot. Within 1-2 minutes of activation, my foot becomes uncomfortably warm from the barrage of hot air. The result is a painful, burning sensation and extreme physical discomfort in my foot. Using an infrared thermometer, I gathered temperature readings of the air exiting the vents. The ac was set to maximum heat. All readings were taken while the truck was idle. Outside temperatures were 30 F. the thermometer measured temperatures in excess of 140 F from all vents. The reading of the vent next to the accelerator was 141.5F. I placed an empty shoe on the accelerator and left it there for 3 minutes. Readings of the shoe while on the accelerator were in excess of 120F. I removed the shoe from accelerator and took readings after it cooled for 3 seconds. The shoe's temperature was 115F. The shoe remained warm to the touch for several minutes. Leaving the vents at the same settings, I took measurements of the bare skin of my hands and arms. Temperature readings were between 89-91F. Skin can be burned in a relatively short period of time when exposed to temperatures in excess of 120F. My own discomfort confirms this. I contacted 3 Ford dealers regarding this problem and explained my findings. Two dealers said that the pedals in my model Ford were nonadjustable, so the issue was not actionable. I also contacted Ford directly. So far no solution.

Rear window defroster works intermittently. After doing research and reading many forums I learned there is a contact in rear window that has shorted out and caused many rear window sections to pop and shatter the glass. When I turn my rear defrost on most of the time it doesn't work but when it does I am afraid the glass will break like it had for so many others. This had also caused me not to use it when my kids are in the truck.

Discovered my rear defrost was not working one morning, brought the truck to my local Ford dear where I purchased the truck. Was informed that there was a short in the rear window glass and it needed to be replaced.

- Warrington, PA, USA

The contact owns a 2013 Ford F-150. While driving at an unknown speed, the vehicle stalled. The vehicle was able to restart; however, the failure immediately recurred.

- Crossroads, TX, USA

Vehicle hesitation with jerking and loss of momentum when lightly accelerating at speeds between 60 mph and 70 mph when hot. Dealer determined this was caused by the spark plugs and boots and changed them out at 48K miles. Dealer maintenance book lists changing out the spark plugs and boots at 100K miles which a gross underestimated maintenance schedule. This is miss leading to the buyer for expected repair costs and dangerous for the owner while on the road and dangerous to other motorist because of the unexpected loss of momentum and jerking of the vehicle.

I had just exited the freeway and was at a red light when the truck message board read shift to park, I did that and the truck basically shut down, flashing both a service advancetrac message as well as a start system fault message. The hazard lights would not work nor any signal in the vehicle, the radio, dome lights worked but the keyless remote keys were not working. So we called Ford roadside assistance and was stuck on the bottom of a freeway off ramp for 3 hours with no hazard lights functional I had to pop the hood and open my driver side door and stand outside of the truck to let other drivers know we were stalled it was a very nerve racking experience I'm just thankful nobody hit us as were basically just sitting ducks at the bottom of a busy freeway off ramp. Please fix this issue before some one gets killed.
