I HAVE A FORD F150 WITH ONLY 6K MILES. GREAT TRUCK! HOWEVER, THE FRONT DOOR HAS BEEN FREEZING UP IN 20-30 DEGREE WEATHER. THIS BECOMES AN EXTREMELY UNSAFE VEHICLE WHEN THIS HAPPENS. THE REASON IS BECAUSE THE DOOR WILL NOT STAY SHUT UNLESS I TRY TO HOLD IT SHUT, WHICH IS VERY DIFFICULTY DUE TO IT BEING A VERY HEAVY DOOR. I AM SHOCKED THAT THIS HAS NOT BEEN RECALLED. THERE ARE FORUMS ONLINE THAT SPEAK TO THIS ISSUE. PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE INVESTIGATE. IF MY WIFE WAS IN THE TRUCK WHEN THIS HAPPENED SHE WOULD NOT HAVE THE ABILITY TO HOLD THE DOOR SHUT. I AM VERY CONCERNED ABOUT THIS ISSUE.

17 F DEGREES AND MY DOOR LATCH WOULD NOT HOLD / KEEP THE DRIVERS SIDE DOOR CLOSED.AFTER MULTIPLE ATTEMPTS TO CLOSE THE DOOR I HELD IT SHUT AND DROVE IT TO WORK.AFTER THE VEHICLE WARMED UP THE LATCH STARTED TO WORK OR APPEARED TO. THE DOOR LOCKS AND LATCHES HAVE ISSUES WHEN THE OUTSIDE TEMPERATURE DROPS BELOW FREEZING. GETTING IN THE TRUCK IS QUESTIONABLE BUT THE DRIVERS DOOR NOT LATCHING WILL EVENTUALLY HAVE SOMEONE FALL OUT OF THE VEHICLE OR CAUSE AN ACCIDENT TRYING TO DRIVE WITH ONE HAND WHILE HOLDING THE DOOR CLOSED WITH THE OTHER. THIS SOUNDS LIKE A COMMON ISSUE FROM MULTIPLE COMPLAINTS ON INTERNET FORUMS AND FORD IS SLOW OR NOT REALLY RESPONDING QUICKLY TO THE PROBLEM. THIS IS NOT A ISSUE IN WARM WEATHER STATES BUT IN OHIO ITS A REAL ISSUE.

SUPERCREW REAR DOOR LOCKS FAIL TO ELECTRONICALLY UNLOCK (OR LOCK) IN FREEZING TEMPERTURES. GETTING INTO THE VEHICHLE REQUIRES CLIMBING INTO THE BACK SEAT FROM THE FRONT AND MANUALLY CYCLING THE DOOR LOCK. HOWEVER THIS DOES NOT FIX THE PROBLEM; THE ELECTRONIC FOB AND INTERIOR BUTTTONS STILL FAIL TO ACTUATE THE LOCKING MECHNAISM UNTIL WARMER TEMPERATRES RETURN. IN ADDITION TO DAILEY INCONVENIENCE THIS SENARIO RAISES MORE SERIOUS CONCERNS SUCH AS: LACK OF ACCESS TO PASSENGERS IN THE EVENT OF AN ACCIDENT, INABILITY TO SECURE (LOCK) THE VEHICLE CONFIEDENTLY, POTENTIAL TO BE LOCKED OUT OF THE VEHICLE IN EXTREME COLD AND OTHER UNFORESEEN SAFTEY CONCERNS.

TWO OCCASIONS (OVERNIGHT TEMPERATURES LESS THAN 32F WITH LIGHT RAIN AND FREEZING FOG) - BOTH REAR DOORS (CREW CAB) WERE FROZEN SHUT AND FAILED TO OPEN FIRST THING IN THE MORNING. ON ONE OCCASION, BOTH REAR DOORS OPERATED NORMALLY AFTER THE ENGINE WARMED UP AND INTERIOR TEMPERATURE ROSE TO 72F. ON THE SECOND OCCASION, THE DRIVER'S SIDE REAR DOOR BECAME AJAR (NOT LATCHED AT ALL) ABOUT 10 MINUTES AFTER LEAVING HOME AND WHILE DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD. THE DOOR SWUNG OPEN WHEN TURNING RIGHT ON A CURVE IN THE ROAD. TWO OCCASIONS (OVERNIGHT TEMPERATURES LESS THAN 32F WITH LIGHT RAIN OR FREEZING FOG): WHILE ENTERING A MILITARY INSTALLATION, THE DRIVER'S DOOR POWER WINDOW WOULD NOT OPEN (FROZEN SHUT). I OPENED THE DRIVER'S DOOR TO SHOW MY ID TO THE GATE GUARD AND THE DOOR FAILED TO LATCH SHUT. IT OCCURRED ABOUT 10 MINUTES AFTER LEAVING HOME WITH THE INTERIOR WARM (72F). I USED A BUNGEE CORD STRETCHED BETWEEN THE DRIVER AND PASSENGER DOOR HANDLES TO HOLD THE DOOR SHUT WHILE DRIVING SEVERAL MORE MILES TO WORK. I WAS ABLE TO SHUT THE DRIVER'S DOOR AFTER ARRIVING AT WORK AND CYCLING THE POWER DOOR LOCKS AND HANDLE SEVERAL TIMES. THREE OF THE FOUR INSTANCES ARE SAFETY ISSUES SINCE THE DOORS EITHER UNLATCHED OR FAILED TO LATCH SHUT WHILE DRIVING. ALL DOORS OPERATE NORMALLY WHEN TEMPERATURES ARE ABOVE 32F. IT IS UNCOMMON FOR TEMPERATURES TO DROP BELOW 32F IN MY AREA SO THE PROBLEM CANNOT BE EASILY REPRODUCED. *TR

THE DRIVER DOOR LATCH ON MY TRUCK WHEN COLD WILL FREEZE AND NOT OPEN/UNLOCK UNTIL THE TRUCK HAS BEEN WARMED UP FOR AN EXTENDED PERIOD OF TIME RANGING UP TO 40 MINUTES. I HAVE BEEN LOCKED OUT OF MY VEHICLE AT A GAS STATION, RETUARANT, MY HOUSE AND HAVE EVEN BEEN LOCKED IN MY TRUCK WHERE I HAD TO WAIT 10 MINUTES FOR IT TO THAW AND ALLOW ME TO EXIT THE VEHICLE. THIS IS A HUGE SAFETY ISSUE IF I CANT EXIT MY VEHICLE IF INVOLVED IN AN ACCIDENT OR BEING STRANDED OUTSIDE OF MY VEHICLE IN COLD TEMPS. THIS HAS HAPPENED TO ME ABOUT 12 TIMES NOW AND THE FIRST TIME IT DID IT IT WAS ONLY 29 DEGREES OUT. THE COLDER IT IS THE LONGER IT NEEDS TO THAW. THIS IS A VIDEO I MADE AND POSTED IT ONLINE.

2016 FORD F-150 SUPERCREW LARIAT 4X4 - VEHICLE DOOR OPENING MECHANISM HAS FAILED ON BOTH THE DRIVER'S DOOR AS WELL AS THE PASSENGER REAR DOOR. SPECIFICALLY THE DRIVER'S DOOR HAS BOTH NOT OPENED FROM THE OUTSIDE AND AT A LATER TIME NOT BEEN ABLE TO CLOSE DOOR. WHEN YOU CLOSE THE DOOR IT, JUST BOUNCES BACK OPEN AS THE LATCH MECHANISM DID NOT ENGAGE. SIMILARLY, THE REAR PASSENGER DOOR ON THIS TRUCK HAS ON TWO OCCASIONS ALREADY RESULTED IN A FAILING LATCHING MECHANISM PREVENTING THE DOOR FROM BEING OPENED. WITH THREE YOUNG CHILDREN WHO RIDE IN THE REAR SEATS, HAVING A DOOR THAT FAILS TO CLOSE IS AN EXTREME SAFETY HAZARD AS THE CHILDREN EXPECT ANY DOOR THAT THEY CLOSE ON AN AUTOMOBILE TO LATCH WHEN SHUT. I HAVE BEEN FORTUNATE ENOUGH TO NOTICE THE "DOOR AJAR" ALERT ON THE DASH, BUT THERE MAY BE SOME WHO DO NOT NOTICE THIS. IT'S WORTH NOTING THAT AFTER OPENING AND CLOSING THE DOOR AND ALSO LOCKING AND UNLOCKING THE VEHICLE EVENTUALLY IT WILL CLOSE, BUT IT USUALLY TAKES MORE THAN 15 MINUTES FOR CLOSURE TO TAKE PLACE. AT WHICH POINT, YOU ARE TERRIFIED TO OPEN YOUR OWN DOOR ONCE MORE FOR FEAR THAT IT WILL NOT CLOSE. *TR

4EA26001 · Unintended Transmission Downshift And Rear Wheel Lock-up
Opened Jan 30, 2026 · No close date supplied
Status: open (inferred from source dates) · Power Train:automatic Transmission:control Module (tcm/pcm/tecm)
On March 21, 2025, NHTSA’s Office of Defects Investigation (ODI) opened a Preliminary Evaluation (PE25002) to investigate instances of unexpected transmission downshifting without driver input in model year (MY) 2015-2017 Ford F-150 vehicles (subject vehicles) manufactured by Ford Motor Company (Ford). The complaints allege that, without warning or driver input, the subject vehicles experienced a sudden and rapid deceleration often accompanied by temporary rear wheel lockup, seizure, or skidding, resulting in a loss of vehicle control that increases the risk of crash and injury to all motorists, including those not within the subject vehicles. The MY 2015 and MY 2016 F-150 vehicles were equipped with the “6R80” transmission, while the MY 2017 vehicles were equipped with either the “6R80” transmission or the “10R80” transmission. This investigation was limited to MY 2015-2017 Ford F-150 with the “6R80” transmission. ODI identified 329 Vehicle Owners Questionnaires (VOQs) related to this investigation and sixty percent of these consumers were interviewed to confirm the details of their allegations. Consumers reported that their vehicles’ transmission suddenly downshifted to a lower gear, often to 1st or 2nd gear, without driver input or advance warning. Consumers described the downshift events to be regular and repeated occurrences, with some consumers stating that they no longer drive the vehicle due to safety concerns. Forty-three percent of consumers reported experiencing at least one wheel lockup event, during which the rear tires locked, screeched, or skidded during the transmission downshift. ODI also found that 114 of the 329 consumers reported having their vehicle’s molded lead frame or valve body assembly (which comes with a molded lead frame) replaced, 80 of which were confirmed through consumer submitted repair invoices. In its response to ODI’s Information Request, Ford provided an assessment of potential root cause of failure for the subject vehicles and how this failure is different from the failure associated with MY 2011-2014 Ford F-150 vehicles that was addressed by four safety recalls (16V-248, 19V-075, 19V-433, and 24V-444). Ford has identified that the defect in the recalled vehicle population involved lead frame supplier production issues resulting in signal loss from the Output Shaft Speed (OSS) sensor. Ford has identified that the alleged defect in the subject vehicle population involved degradation of electrical connections within the lead frame due to thermal cycling and vibration over extended time in service resulting in signal loss from the Transmission Range Sensor (TRS). Signal loss from the TRS can result in an unintended shift to neutral, unintended upshift, or unintended downshift which are regulated by a gear “shift map” based on the vehicle’s speed at the time of signal loss. According to Ford’s “shift map”, at speeds between 35-64 mph, the maximum allowable downshift would be to 2nd gear (i.e. a 6th to 2nd gear downshift event) which Ford has designated to represent the worst-case scenario for subject vehicles. Ford has also acknowledged that the worst-case scenario may also involve temporary wheel lockup. However, Ford has stated that the failure mechanism in the MY 2011-2014 F-150 vehicles—previously addressed through recalls—primarily involved OSS sensor signal loss that could result in 6th to 1st gear downshift events. This OSS-related failure mode is distinct from the TRS-related signal loss identified in the subject vehicle population. ODI has identified an additional potential safety defect associated with the alleged defect in the subject vehicles. Preliminary testing performed by NHTSA’s Vehicle Research Test Center (VRTC) showed that when the TRS experiences an intermittent signal loss, one possible outcome is a change in vehicle direction. Specifically, if a vehicle is operating in reverse up an incline when the TRS signal loss occurs, then the vehicle may shift into neutral causing the vehicle to change directions and roll forward. ODI is opening this Engineering Analysis (EA) to, among other things, perform component-level testing and vehicle testing, as well as review additional technical information to better understand the alleged defect that has been identified.

PE18008 · Seatbelt Pretensioner Fire
Opened Aug 3, 2018 · Closed Dec 17, 2018
Status: closed (inferred from source dates) · Seat Belts:pretensioner
On June 18, 2018, the Office of Defects Investigations (ODI) opened a Preliminary Evaluation (PE18-008) to investigate complaints alleging post-crash fires at the B pillar in the area of the seat belt pretensioners on MY 2014-2018 Ford F-150 Regular Cab, and Super Crew Cab Vehicles. On August 24, 2018, Ford Motor Company recalled (FSA 18S27 - NHTSA #18V568) the affected population. Ford's investigation found that some front seat belt pretensioners may generate sparks during deployment in excess of Ford's specification. Sparks in the pretensioner exhaust gases inside the lower portion of the B-pillar may subsequently ignite combustible components contained in the B-pillar, such as insulation or carpet, and may cause a subsequent vehicle fire. ODI also requested relevant information from other manufacturers to assess the potential scope of post-crash pretensioner fires. Ford will notify owners and require dealers to remove B-pillar insulation material and wiring harness tape, and install heat resistant tape, free of charge. The recall notification began September 28, 2018.Owners may contact Ford customer service at 1-866-436-7332.The VOQs associated with the closing of this investigation are: 11143035, 11130056, 11129828, 11128761, 11127993, 11127880, 11124717, 11123419, 11119651, 11119626, 11114065, 11113160, 11111822, 11097937, 11078447, 11014688
