THE TRUCK HAS HAD THIS ISSUE SINCE I'VE PURCHASED THE TRUCK BUT CAN NEVER DUPLICATE THE ISSUE WHILE AT THE DEALERSHIP. THE 1ST TIME THE ENGINE WOULD CRANK BUT WOULD NOT FIRE. THE SECOND TIME, I WAS DRIVING AND THE TRUCK JUST STOPPED. I WAS LUCKY ENOUGH SOME PASSING BY MOTORIST HELPED TO PUSH IT OUT OF THE INTERSECTION. 3RD TIME, THE TRUCK WAS PARKED AND DID NOT START. AFTER TROUBLESHOOTING THE ISSUE, THE FUEL PUMP RELAY FUSE BURNED OUT. NORMALLY FUSES JUST POP, THIS ONE JUST BURNED OUT TO WHERE I COULD NOT TAKE OUT THE FUSE. TOOK THE TRUCK TO WAS BOUGHT AT AND AFTER A FEW HOURS, THE PROBLEM WAS LOCATED. THE SHOP FOREMAN STATED THAT THEY HAVE HAD ALOT OF TRUCKS GO IN WITH THE SAME ISSUE. ONLY REASON I MAKING A COMPLAINT IS DUE TO THAT COMMENT. IT IS A SAFETY ISSUE WHEN I WAS DRIVING AND TRUCK SHUTS OFF IN THE MIDDLE OF THE INTERSECTION. WHAT IF MY SONS WERE WITH ME? HOPE THIS GETS RESOLVED AND A RECALLED IS MADE BEFORE SOMETHING WORSE HAPPENS TO SOMEONE ELSE. THANK YOU. *TR

"IGNITION CYLINDER FELL OUT WHILE DRIVING. WHILE DRIVING MY VEHICLE THE IGNITION CYLINDER (INCLUDING MY KEYS) FELL OUT OF THE STEERING COLUMN. THE VEHICLE KEPT RUNNING, POWER STEERING AND BRAKES WERE STILL FUNCTIONING AND STEERING WHEEL WAS ABLE TO BE TURNED. I PULLED OVER TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD AND FOUND THE IGNITION CYLINDER CONTAINING MY KEYS ON THE FLOOR MAT OF MY VEHICLE. I WAS ABLE TO DRIVE THE VEHICLE HOME - HOWEVER I WAS NOT ABLE TO TURN OFF THE ENGINE WITH THE KEY AFTER I ARRIVED HOME. I PULLED THE NEGATIVE BATTERY CABLE TO KILL THE ENGINE. I CALLED DORIAN FORD AND WAS TOLD THIS IS A COMMON FAILURE AND FOR $375 THIS COULD BE FIXED (PER ROXANNE, SERVICE ADVISOR @ DORIAN FORD). I FOUND THIS INCREDIBLE THAT A SERVICE ADVISOR WOULD INDICATE THIS IS A COMMON FAILURE. THIS WAS QUITE SCARY FOR THE FIRST FEW MOMENTS WHEN I HEARD THE CYLINDER FALL OUT AND THEN HIT MY LEG ON ITS WAY TO THE FLOOR. MY FIRST THOUGHT WAS THIS IS THE SAME SCENARIO THAT OCCURRED ON GM VEHICLES WITH THE IGNITION CYLINDER.

I OWN A 2010 FORD F-150 FX4 PICKUP, PURCHASED NEW OCTOBER 2009. APPROXIMATELY IN 2013 THE REAR WINDOW DEFROSTER STOPPED WORKING. THE TRUCK IS EQUIPPED WITH A POWER REAR SLIDING WINDOW FROM FORD. I TOOK THE TRUCK TO MY LOCAL FORD DEALER TO ADDRESS THE ISSUE. THE FORD DEALER SERVICE DEPARTMENT ADVISED ME THE PROBLEM WAS WITH THE WINDOW ITSELF, AND WOULD NOT BE COVERED UNDER WARRANTY, OR FORD AT ALL. I HAVE NOTICED MANY COMPLAINTS ON THE WEB FROM OWNERS OF FORD PICKUPS OF THE SAME YEAR AND MODEL, THE MAJORITY OF THEM EXPERIENCING BROKEN REAR WINDOWS, SMOKE AND DAMAGE. LIKE MANY, I HAVE A SMALL CHILD THAT SITS IN A REAR FACING CHILD'S CAR SEAT, AND AM VERY CONCERNED ABOUT THIS PROBLEM. IT IS VERY APPARENT FORD IS AWARE OF THIS SAFETY ISSUE, BUT IS NOT WILLING TO ADMIT TO IT, OR TAKE STEPS TO ADDRESS IT. THIS ISSUE IS A TICKING TIME BOMB FOR FORD PICKUP OWNERS, ALWAYS WORRYING IF IT WILL HAPPEN TO THEM, AND WHEN.
