    Was having trouble starting my truck one day. Cranking and cranking but not firing. Sometimes it would eventually fire, sometimes it required a jump to get it going. Took it into ford, they replaced the battery. Didn't happen for a few more days. Same thing. Crank, crank, crank, but wouldn't start. Did some searching online, and found similar situation regarding a burnt/melted fuse 27 (the fuel pump fuse). Ford…

    I drove my f-150 eccoboost truck to the snow, same area i have been hundreds of times and suddenly smoke burst from the engine, then flames shot out around the hood, popped the hood and fought the fire for half an hour, it kept restating. It stranded myself and children, and we had a harrowing experience that was pretty dicey. Ford had just put in a new engine, at my cost, +14,000.00, after the timing chain failed.…

    My vehicle failed to start. After having the vehicle towed to my dealer, i was told the issue was a blown fuse. I asked them to replace and was told the actual fix is to relocate the fuse location based on a safety bulletin. I believe this is a major safety issue and after reading all the other complaints believe someone should take a closer look. If i had been driving on the highway when this known fuse issue…

    3 times in the last 2 months the engine stopped completely and without warning. We took it to the ford dealership twice and they could not detect a problem. We then took it to an independent asa master certified technician with 38 years experience. He informed us that ford has had this problem for years and will not admit there is a problem. Throttle system was cleaned and we will see if this corrects issue. My…

    While traveling eastbound doing 65 mph and towing a travel trailer on i-10 (fl panhandle), the engine shut off. We were able to pull off to the shoulder because we were traveling in the right lane. After getting to a repair garage, we were told by a former ford mechanic that there had been a tsb issued for micro fuse #27 which controls fuel pump relay. Ford has issued a repair kit to replace the fuse with a…

    2014 f-150 3.5l ecoboost. Engine will completely lose power and go into "limp mode" with orange wrench. Dealer claims they cannot retrieve problem code so i bought a obd scanner and dtc code reads as p2112. This is the second time i will have to get the electronic throttle body replaced. The first time the truck had approx. 62,000 miles on it, this time it has approx. 111,000. This is absolutely ridiculous. Both…

    While travelling down any road the electrical throttle body will stop working putting the truck into a "limp home mode." ford has done a "consumer satisfaction program 13n03" for previous vehicles to the tone of 1.6 million vehicles. They have not fixed the problem at this point and refuse to acknowledge that there is a problem.
