Started truck and drove about 1/4 mile when it lost all power and numerous messages started flashing on the screen. Truck had no power and I had to pull to the side of the blvd to let other traffic pass. Shut engine off and restarted. Started oksy but returned home. Learned from my mechanic 180 miles away that it is the throttle body, a common problem to which there is no recall but possibly and extended warranty. Truck has 49,253 miles on it.

Chech engine light keeps coming on. Dealer said it was an evap canister issue, I told them warning had come on prior for check fuel fill cap. (Capless). Said they needed to replace purge cylinoid. So as I'm paying $500 for the repair, I'm told this might not fix the issue. What? Started with small evap leak. And fuel door codes. That only came on at 1/4 tank used. Now it's a large leak that comes on every time I start the engine. And I got the check fuel fill door warning again. I've done every trick listed on forums to clean and lubricate the fuel fill door, it did help for a while but as stated above problem is now much worse. Dealer should know how to fix this issue once and for all. Forums note that this is a common problem with no quick solution.

The throttle body will randomly get stuck either shut or open and when this happens the truck goes into a -??limp-?? mode that makes the truck lose all power. There is no warning of when it will happen or to get your vehicle checked. If this were to happen pulling into traffic it could cause a serious wreck since you cannot get the truck to accelerate in any way. This problem has been reproduced numerous times.

My 2015 3.5l ecoboost had the Exhaust manifolds replaced back in 2018 when my truck had 51,909 miles on it and now at 90,000 miles the new manifolds warped and snapped off a stud bolt to which the American Fork Utah Ford Dealership said that since it was over a year ago even though it was a known issue that was covered under warranty I will have to pay out of pocket over $2,000 per manifold... this is a known issue with the manifold warping and causing exhaust leaks when the stud bolts snap off. Ford needs to recall this design flaw and pay for the fix.

at 63000 miles in June 2021, randomly while driving, it presented warning "Hill Start Assist unavailable" and other traction control warnings, , throttle goes to idle in traffic, vehicle coasts and dies. Key off & on restarts it. Code P2112. Ford dealer replaced throttle body motor under extended warranty on June 3, 2021. MotorCraft Part has 2 year warranty. On June 17, 2023 (14 days out of part warranty), at 93,000 miles truck does identical behavior. Starts & runs fine, presents warning with random frequency (4 times this morning) at various speeds from 30 mph up to 75 mph in freeway traffic. Throttle goes to idle, truck coasts at 3-5 mph until ignition key recycled. happened this morning at 65 mph on freeway in construction zone with no safety shoulders. VERY dangerous!!!

While driving with my family the truck gave several error messages and a check engine light. I pulled over immediately because the truck lost power and the stability control started shaking violently. I was able to safely maneuver out of traffic, but I cannot imagine what would have happened if I was on a busy highway instead of a small side street. Apparently this is an issue that has been fairly common with Ford from what I have seen online. The vehicle is at the mechanic now for repairs. He has determined that the Throttle body needs to be replaced.

My 2015 Ford F150 has 108K miles. While driving on 2/21/23, the engine started missing, several engine warning light began illuminating. I was able to pull to the shoulder and stop the engine which was missing badly. After allowing the engine to completely stop and turning the ignition off, I allowed it to settle for a moment, then I restarted the engine. I placed it in gear and attempted to drive again, but the same missing and instrument cluster faults recurred. At this point, I had it towed to Loveland Ford, in Loveland Colorado. After evaluation, I was notified the Throttle Body had failed which also caused the instrument cluster faults. Upon reading about the Throttle Body, one of the articles indicated this has been and issue for Ford F150 years 2014 -2016 produced in Dearborn and Kansas, but that Ford had voluntarily repaired vehicles with issues via extended warranty when reported. My vehicle falls in the date range and was produced in Dearborn. This is a very dangerous condition and had this occurred on a busy highway, would be a danger to me as well as other vehicles.

Failing Exhaust manifold and studs

- Overton, NV, USA

Throttle Actuator control system error (Hill Start Assist Not Available/Service AdvanceTrac). Vehicle lost accelerator power at highway speed in traffic. Traveling at highway speed without the ability to accelerate resulted is difficulty exiting to the shoulder when vehicle lost acceleration. Computer code error P2112 was later diagnosed with subsequent check engine light. This is a known problem. As such, Ford had issued a temporary Service Bulletin 16B32B for this issue on various models. However this narrow window for repair is not adequate for the issue at hand.

The following has happened multiple times. I am driving in top gear (5th or 6th) at approximately 55 mph. I attempt to pass someone and suddenly lose acceleration as I press the accelerator pedal. The transmission seems to go limp. After a few seconds my acceleration returns.

The capless fuel cap flap is allowing air into the tsnk csusing the check engine light to come on. I know numerous Ford vechicles having the same problem. I feel Ford should recall these problems.

I have A2015 F 150 with 47,500 miles. I was driving on the highway when the engine just stopped. I was able to get to the shoulder without getting hit. When I tried to start the truck it would crank but wouldn't start. I ended up calling my mechanic he tried to jump it didn't start. He towed the truck to the shop, he ended up changing the fuel pump and fuel pump module. I looked up the problem on the internet and found many other Ford truck owners had the same problem. I contacted Ford they said there is nothing they can do. My mechanic said the pump should not go bad with the mileage my truck had. What happened could have lead to an accident.

Truck fault code flashes and truck shuts down into safe mode. Three times it occurred while driving on freeway at 70 mph and the fourth time it happened in an a side road doing 35 mph. Every time the same thing happened, the truck shut down in safe mode showing fault codes. I would stop, it would idle very rough, I was not able to move it as it would not rev or let me increase RPM. I would have to shut off truck, turn it back on, it would reset and drive like normal. Took to courtesy Ford four times to diagnose and they could not find anything, I bought a code ready and the truck went into fault code and safety mode again, the code read P2112. Ford found tsb 16-0139 applied and replaced throttle body and charged me $496.95 for repair. 2015 Ford F150 with 58K miles.
