This data is from the NHTSA — the US gov't agency tasked with vehicle safety. Complaints are spread across multiple & redundant categories, & are not organized by problem.
So how do you find out what problems are occurring? For this NHTSA complaint data, the only way is to read through the comments below. Any duplicates or errors? It's not us.
We were driving down the road and the cluster screen went completely black. We couldn-??t tell what speed we were going or any other information that gets displayed there. This is a very hazardous problem that should be looked into further.
I was driving in traffic on the 405 and the collision avoidance system activated and slammed on the brakes bringing the vehicle to a screeching halt on freeway. I was nearly rear ended. The vehicle displayed "front camera fault" and :collision avoidance no available" on the dash for a few minutes. No error codes were found in the computer. I also have "one pedal drive" faults that cause the vehicle to roll when I remove my foot from the accelerator. It should stop, but intermittently keeps going. This is the second Ford lightning I've had with that problem and many others. Ford bought the first one back under the ca lemin law. Galpin Ford has found no cause for the collision avoidance failure and no cause for the one pedal drive faults. Error codes are not being stored in the computer system. Fords answer was to try to give me the vehicle back without repairs because they say they can't replicate the problem. After the problems with the first truck I photograph all errors on dash. Despite my pictures they are unable to make repairs. I have applied to get this second lightning bough back under the ca lemon laws as well. I have found many other instances of owners reporting these same or similar problems in forums.
The entire over steering wheel display/cockpit stopped functioning. No ability to view charge level, speed, and other related details normally shown in this display was available. The things I tried to repair were: parking the car, locking the door to simulate a full stop/start cycle, disconnecting everything from the vehicle ports, Etc. eventually after leaving the car for an extended period this functionality eventually returned to normal. If I had been far from home I-??d have been faced with essentially driving blind. I also have video of this issue if desired.
