I was driving down the highway with my rear defrost operating. I smelled something burning that had an "electrical burn" smell. I thenheard a loud "pop". I looked in my rear view mirror and saw that my rear driver side back glass panel (sliding glass window) was shattered. This was especially concerning because my daughter was seated directly in front of the shattered glass in her car seat. I researched this problem and saw numerous issues with the rear window defroster in this model of truck. That explains the electrical burning smell.

Was having trouble starting my truck one day. Cranking and cranking but not firing. Sometimes it would eventually fire, sometimes it required a jump to get it going. Took it into Ford, they replaced the battery. Didn't happen for a few more days. Same thing. Crank, crank, crank, but wouldn't start. Did some searching online, and found similar situation regarding a burnt/melted fuse 27 (the fuel pump fuse). Ford knows about this issue so much that they even created a part to move the fuel pump to a larger fuse. I'm glad this issue only happened while sitting still and I was able to get the fused replaced without incident. However, I would imagine that soon my vehicle would have stopped while traveling due to the fuel pump fuse completely dying. Also seems like a fire hazard, or it could do further damage to the fuse box or to surrounding fuses. Ford should issue a recall for this immediately.

I have a notification light on the dash stating that my left rear door is open, when in fact, it is not. There is a faulty wire I believe that is causing this issue. Also, I cannot lock my entire truck with the key fob because of this issue, and I can only do it manually. I feel that this is a safety issue. Also, my front map lights and the rear window defrost does not work. I live in a cold state (Indiana) so it would be nice to have these electrical issues taken care of. Just like most people, I have children that are frequently in my truck. Nothing has been hit or damaged in any way. This just started happening for the first time in June 2019. I've told my local Ford dealer, but they tell me that since it is not on recall I will have to pay for it out of pocket. I am a disabled veteran, and that's not necessarily the easiest thing for me to do, especially since it is out of warranty. I've though about getting an extended warranty, but how can I be sure that will cover the cost of the repairs? thank you

I drove my F-150 eccoboost truck to the snow, same area I have been hundreds of times and suddenly smoke burst from the engine, then flames shot out around the hood, popped the hood and fought the fire for half an hour, it kept restating. It stranded myself and children, and we had a harrowing experience that was pretty dicey. Ford had just put in a new engine, at my cost, +14,000.00, after the timing chain failed. They would not repair it at their cost, even though I have copies of the fault codes from before the failure of the timing chain that destroyed the old engine. The new one had under 10,000 miles on the new engine, probably about 5,000 miles on it. We had driven on the relatively flat grade mainline road, and drove up about 0.8 miles, climbing maybe 400 ft elevation over that distance. I was in the process of turning the vehicle around when the engine burst into flames. It was on a gravel road. We had traveled from home, 35.2 miles.

I got a left rear door ajar warning on the dash of my 2014 Ford F150 crew cab pick up truck. I would check the door and it was closed properly. Every time I started the truck I would get the warning. I made an appointment with Ford to find out why this was happening. On the day of the appointment with Ford, I started the truck and heard a buzzing type noice from the rear seat area. I got out to he truck with it running and opened the left rear door to search for the buzzing noise. As I was looking for the noise I started to smell plastic burning, then out of the left pillar between the front and back door smoke started pouring out of where the seat belt goes behind the cover where the seat belt retracts to. Smoke and the smell of the plastic started to fill the cabin area of the truck. I shut the truck off. Within about ten minutes the smoke cleared but the smell of burned plastic was strong. I then had the truck towed to miller Ford in lumberton, New Jersey. A preliminary report from Ford is that the electrical harness in the door post and under the carpet area is melted. I am awaiting to hear from Ford the final story at this time.

My 2014 F-150 platinum edition rear driver side window glass cracked this morning. Auto started my truck and the defrost automatically turns on as it's warming up the truck. 5 min later after getting in the truck drove the truck for 10 sec or so and I heard a loud pop! my glass had shattered into the pieces. Did research and seen I'm not the only one who has had this happen to them. The defrost sensor has been causing this to the 09-14 F150 and Ford is not doing anything about this.. I called a couple dealerships and asked them about it and they also told me they have had a lot of other people call them about this issue. What is Ford going to do about this? I don't really want to pay 1K out of pocket to fix something that's an issue with the manufacturer. If this has happened to anyone else, please put in a complaint so this can get resolved sooner than later! I'm just glad no one was in the back seat when this shattered at it was extremely loud and could've shattered on them! thank you !

I have a 2014 F150 ecoboost and there is a recall from Ford for a temporary loss of signal with the output shaft speed sensor however not for my year. I tried to go to Ford to have them reflash the PCM like the other years they could not do it I have had my truck go into 1st gear on several occasions while on the freeway at 60+ mph. I have had it stutter in 1st gear and then shift to 5th with the wrench light turning on while trying to pull out into traffic

Vehicle fire. I started the vehicle up in my driveway and heard a small pop/explosion and smoke came out from under the hood. I immediately shut off the truck, popped the hood and could not identify the source of the issue. I started the truck again and noticed where the fie/smoke was, shut off the truck, and proceeded to rush into the house to grab the kitchen fire extinguisher and put the fire out. Thankfully I was not driving and my house didn't catch fire. I called my mechanic and had the tow truck deliver the vehicle to him and they confirmed that it was the oem alternator that was the cause of the fire. I contacted the dealership wanting to report the issue and the dealership in their words said "not sure what you want us to do?" not are you ok, this is serious let us help, etc. Just a simple passing the buck to a 1800 number to Ford. I filed a case with Ford Motor Company, but that too was a joke. They didn't care either. I was told they'll file it as negative feedback and since I was so upset, I was directed to create a complaint with NHTSA. I found this very disturbing as Ford appears to not have cared one bit about their manufactured vehicle catching fire or the possibility of someone getting hurt or killed. I hope this complaint finds the right people and prevents a real accident or tragedy from happening. At this time I don't have the repair invoices as the fire did a decent amount of damage even though I did put it out within 60 seconds of it starting. The mechanics are still assessing all the damage done. Since the fire was in the engine bay area on the bottom, there isn't much visible burn damage (and it is currently covered in dry chem from the fire extinguisher). I did file a case with Ford as mentioned and if you need the case number I'd be glad to provide it.

On 2 separate occasions with me and 1 occasion with a Ford service tech. (all of which occurred between the dates of Sept 13 and 18, 2019) my F150 engine shutdown while driving. My first occurrence was while attempting to accelerate onto interstate 24 in chattanooga, tn. Second occurrence was when I was driving in heavy afternoon traffic on us hwy 27 in rossville, ga. Both times I was able to coast the vehicle to side of the road or parking lot to re start vehicle. After each occurence I took vehicle to a mechanic to check vehicle. The first time was a local shop due to know dealerships close by, second time I was close to mtn view Ford in chattanooga, tn. After trouble shooting and vehicle shutting off on the technician, they were able to trace the use down that is pictured. The truck did not leave any error codes or indications to issue. When the vehicle was not causing the immediate issue it was running fine with no problems indicated. The technician did indicate to me that this has happened several times that he was aware of. With that being said, I feel that this issue should have been placed into a recall due to the danger that I encountered with the vehicle shutting off while on interstate and major highway with no indications of issues. I have attempted to contact Ford about this issue but their automated system does not offer a path to report issues.I was told that this fuse is the one for the fuel pump. Mdf

Driving on I-10 in Arizona pulling a camper engine suddenly shut off. Pulled over, restarted engine, tried again, shut off again couple miles later. Did this several times until we reached Ford dealer. They found fuel system MINIfuse had melted in fuse panel. With very little research found this has been a issue since 2009-2014 trucks. Ford refuses to address this problem. They have a tsb for it. They move fuse to open slot in fuse panel & put a heavier fuse that can handle load. Not only did this cost me $500. But also put me & my family in extreme danger (shut down on freeway with 18wheelers next to us) someone needs to make Ford stand behind their product. I'm not the only one check F-150 forums, many others. Thanks

Left for work this morning (April 29th 2019). Temp was 48, left the hotel and turned on rear defrost, smelled a burning electronics smell within about 2 minutes after turning on the rear defrost and heard a loud pop as I was traveling at 35mph. I looked back to see my driverside rear window completely shattered. Called Ford and asked them if they new of anything, they just brushed me off. Im concerned greatly more for the electrical smell even though im highly upset about the window. I dont want a vehicle fire. This is a factory defect, not a wear and tear item or a consumable. I am thoroughly convinced Ford needs to fix this, both my window and the electrical burning smell. I worked at a dealer as a technician, if my truck catches fire, I will hire a lawyer.

The service advancetrac and hill descent control fault come up on my dashboard and my power steering does not work. While most vehicles can be driven without power steering but this truck is not drivable without that feature. The lights and blinkers do not work. These faults happened while driving and I almost lost control of my vehicle and crashed. I'm lucky I didn't hit and kill somebody. This is a huge safety issue for which afford already knows about but refuses to fix our truck.

The contact owns a 2014 Ford F-150. The contact stated that the vehicle would crank, but not start. The contact referenced an unknown technical service bulletin (tsb) regarding a fuse burning out that needed to be relocated. The tsb also indicated that the fuse should be covered by a Ford warranty. The vehicle was taken to sonora Ford (13254 mono way, sonora, ca 95370, (209) 532-5593) where it was determined that the fuse was not covered even after the contact showed them the tsb. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The manufacturer was not contacted. The failure mileage was 75,000.

As I was entering an on ramp to the freeway, the vehicle suddenly downshifted from 5th gear to 2nd and the speedometer jumped from around 45 to less than 20 and back up again. After getting on the freeway, the vehicle seemed to have paused, the speedometer again jumped from 65 down and up again.
