ON 10/22/2010 I WAS THE 2. TIME IN A VEHICLE CRASH, WITH A 2007 FORD F 150 AND THE AIRBAG DID NOT DEPLOYED. 1. IN 2008 FRONT RIGHT DAMAGE BROKEN FRONT AXEL FENDER TIRE RIM DAMAGE, SPEED 55MPH .. CUTS AND BRUISES REPAIR $6,000.00 2. FRONT DAMAGE SIDE DAMAGE BROKEN AXEL FENDER DOOR TIRE RIM DAMAGE .. TRUCK MIGHT BE TOTALED. CUTS AND BRUISES TO FACE AND LEG BOTH TIMES AIRBAG DID NOT DEPLOYED EVEN WITH SEVERE FRONT DAMAGE, PICS ARE AVAILABLE. *TR

MY TRUCK STARTING HAVING BRAKES PROBLEMS (VIBRATION WHEN STOPPING) AT AROUND 25,000 MILES. TOOK IT IN TO DEALERSHIP FOR INSPECTION WITH 29,000 MILES ON IT. ENDED UP MACHINING ALL ROTORS (NOT UNDER WARRANTY). I'M NOW EXPERIENCING THE SAME PROBLEM AT 42,000 MILES. I BELIEVE THE ROTORS AND CALIPERS ARE SEVERELY UNDERSIZED CONSIDERING THE WEIGHT OF THE TRUCK. I SUGGEST THAT FORD MAKE GOOD ON THE NEXT BRAKE JOB. HAD A 88 CHEVY P/U AND WENT 75,000 MILES BEFORE REPLACING THE FRONT PADS. FORD HAS ERRED ON IT'S ENGINEERING. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 FORD F150. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE CRUISE CONTROL WAS SET AT 65 MPH AND WOULD NOT DEACTIVATE WHEN THE BRAKE WAS DEPRESSED. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE FAILURE OCCURRED SEVERAL TIMES AND THE CONTACT HAD COME CLOSE TO CRASHING ON SEVERAL OCCASIONS. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER NUMEROUS TIMES FOR THE FAILURE. THE DEALER WAS UNABLE TO DIAGNOSE OR DUPLICATE THE FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO A LOCAL REPAIR FACILITY WHERE THE CONTACT WAS ADVISED THAT THE FAILURE COULD HAVE BEEN CAUSED BY A VACUUM LEAK. THE MANUFACTURER WAS CONTACTED AND ADVISED THE CONTACT THAT THE VEHICLE COULD BE TRADED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 4,000 AND THE CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 12,500.

ACCELERATES WHILE DEPRESSING THE BRAKE, WENT TO STOP AND TRUCK ACCELERATED, DO TO THE FACT THE BRAKE PEDAL IS TO CLOSE TO THE GAS PEDAL, HAS HAPPENED NUMEROUS TIMES, INCIDENTS, 1 ALMOST DROVE INTO AN INTERSECTION, 2 ALMOST RAN OVER A PEDESTRIAN STOPPING TO LET THEM CROSS THE ROAD, 3 ALMOST REAR ENDED ANOTHER CAR, THESE PROBLEMS HAVE ALL HAPPENED NUMEROUS TIMES, EVENTUALLY SOMEONE IS GOING TO DIE BECAUSE OF THIS PROBLEM. *TR

SPARK PLUG BLOW OUT ON MY 2007 F150 WITH THE 5.4L MODULAR ENGINE. SPARK PLUGS WERE THE FACTORY PLUGS AND AS I BOUGHT THE TRUCK NEW THEIR IS NO WAY THAT THEY HAVE EVER BEEN CHANGED AND IMPROPERLY TORQUED AS THE FORD DEALER TOLD ME AFTER IT HAPPENED. I EXPLAINED THAT FORD HAS ISSUED A TSB ON THE PROBLEM AS IT IS SO RAMPANT IN EVERY FORD V8 ENGINE FROM 1993 TO CURRENT. THIS IS THE 3RD FORD VEHICLE THAT I HAVE HAD THIS HAPPEN TO ME. *TR

TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 FORD F-150. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 1 MPH HE APPLIED PRESSURE TO THE BRAKE PEDAL AND THE PEDAL REMAINED DEPRESSED UNTIL HIS FOOT WAS ALSO APPLYING PRESSURE TO THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL. HE HAD TO QUICKLY MANEUVER HIS FOOT OFF OF THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL TO PREVENT THE VEHICLE FROM ACCELERATING. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN AUTHORIZED DEALER WHERE HE WAS INFORMED THAT THERE WERE NO REPAIRS FOR THAT TYPE OF FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE FAILURE BEGAN TO RECUR INTERMITTENTLY AND THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN BACK TO AN AUTHORIZED DEALER WHERE HE WAS AGAIN INFORMED THAT THERE WERE NO REPAIRS FOR THIS TYPE OF FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED AND THE FAILURE CONTINUED TO RECUR INTERMITTENTLY. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 42,000 AND THE CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 50,000. THE VIN WAS UNAVAILABLE.

I HAVE A 2007 FORD F150 4WD PICKUP TRUCK. I HAVE 22,000 MILES ON THE TRUCK AND JUST HAD TO REPLACE BOTH FRONT UPPER BALL JOINTS. WHEN I TOOK IT TO THE FORD GARAGE THEY INDICATED THIS IS A COMMON FAILURE. MY CONCERN IS THAT THE FAILURE MECHANISM IF THE UPPER BALL JOINT FAILS IS FOR THE WHEEL TO FOLD UNDER THE VEHICLE AND POTENTIALLY RUPTURE THE BRAKE LINES IN THE PROCESS. THEY INDICATED THIS FAILURE WOULD BE WORSE WHILE PULLING A TRAILER. I CONTACTED FORD MOTOR COMPANY AND THEY OFFERED NO EXPLANATION OR ASSISTANCE AS THE TRUCK IS OFF WARRANTY. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 FORD F-150. THE CONTACT STATED THE REAR VALVES CONTINUED TO FRACTURE FROM THE VEHICLE. THE REAR PASSENGER SIDE VALVE FRACTURED ONE YEAR AGO AND MOST RECENTLY; THE REAR DRIVER SIDE VALVE WAS FRACTURED. WHEN THE FAILURE WOULD OCCUR, THE TIRE PRESSURE SENSOR WOULD FAIL. THE DEALER FOUND THERE WAS METAL CUTTING THROUGH THE SIDEWALL THAT PUNCTURED AND SLICED THROUGH THE INSIDE OF THE TIRE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 20,000 AND THE CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 32,000.

2007 F150 PURCHASED NEW. IN THE SPRING OF 2010 I STARTED NOTICING THE PAINT BUBBLE ON THE LEADING EDGE OF THE HOOD. SUBSEQUENTLY THE PAINT HAS STARTED TO FALL OFF. THERE ARE NO PRIOR MAINTENANCE ACTIVITIES WHICH WOULD HAVE CAUSED THIS (E.G. RE-PAINT / ACCIDENT DAMAGE). THE REMAINDER OF THE PAINT IS SHOWROOM QUALITY, IT APPEARS TO BE LIMITED TO THE HOOD AREA. *TR
