I-??ve had 11 times back at the dealer to fix my airbag, pre-collision and battery. Ford can-??t figure out the solution and keeps throwing parts at it. Already replaced my computer, computers, my wiring, harnesses, my charge port, my wiring harness for the charge port, my seat cushion for the airbags. Ford no longer knows how to fix the problem And is leaving the truck in the backyard for over six weeks now. I-??m seeing multiple people having the same problem and Ford doesn-??t know how to fix the problem even though they-??ve reset my modules and replace them. Ford hotline doesn-??t know how to solve the problem either so they-??re just resetting The code and telling customers to get back in their vehicle. I found out that Ford wanted me to drive my truck for a month with a code reader with no airbags, hoping that they could find the problem but I told them no and when I said that they said I-??ve already been driving it for months even though they never fix the problem Not knowing if I had airbags. Ford is willingly putting people in vehicles with no airbags, hoping the problem is fixed, but they don-??t know what-??s causing the problem and I-??m not the only person I know five other people with the same problem.

  • 22,000 miles
The contact owns a 2022 Ford F-150. The contact stated that while driving at an undisclosed speed, the accelerator pedal was depressed and released. The contact then depressed the brake pedal; however, the brakes failed to stop the vehicle immediately, and the transmission failed to shift into neutral (N). The vehicle coasted to the side of the roadway and was able to come to a complete stop. The dealer was made aware of the failure but confirmed that they would not be able to duplicate the failure without a check engine warning light illuminated. The dealer advised the contact to drive the vehicle until the check engine warning light illuminates to diagnose the vehicle. The contact stated that the following week, the failure recurred while making a left turn into the gas station. The vehicle experienced unintended acceleration at 42 MPH, and the brakes failed to stop the vehicle immediately. The "Sudden Acceleration, Sudden Braking" message was displayed. The vehicle crashed into a gas station, injuring the cashier and a customer. One of the injured people received medical attention. The contact did not sustain any injuries, but medical attention was received. No air bags were deployed upon impact. A police report was filed. The vehicle was towed to the police department, where a police investigator accessed the EDR. The vehicle was then towed to the dealer. The contact related the failure to a stuck throttle; however, the vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired and remained at the dealer. Greene Ford Company (2365 Browns Bridge Rd., Gainesville, GA 30504) was also made aware of the failure and referred the contact to the manufacturer. The vehicle was not deemed totaled by the insurance company. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure and informed the contact that he was driving with both feet depressing the accelerator and brake pedals at the same time, which the contact stated was incorrect. The failure mileage was approximately 22,000.
