Driving on an interstate 75 mph when the hillside assist light turned on the dash along with other warning lights and immediately lost all power to the engine requiring a pull off to shoulder. Shut off the engine and restarted with no problem, accelerated back to speed and within a few miles the light came on again and lost all power. This happened several more times while attempting to locate a local ford dealer.…

My 2015 f150 crew cab loses ability to accelerate. You will be going down road or pulling out and without any warning the check engine lights light up and the gas peddle will do nothing. It's very dangerous while in traffic. The truck only has 45,000 mi on it, done some research and it sounds like i'm not the only one having this problem.

I purchased my 2015 f150 about a year ago. There is a tsb for a valve on the top of the gas tank. Tsb states emission related with warranty covered. Ford stating it was built in canada so don't have to warranty in america. Vehicle cuts out after stopping and then accelerating. How can ford sell a vehicle to be used in america with a known issue and not be liable? This is a safety concern. Tsb 15-0171 engine code…

In 1 second i was dead in the water. The truck would immediately start slowing down due to lack of propulsion and the engine would have a very low rough idle. The throttle would not work at any speed. The only way…

Truck went into limp mode after stopping for a red light. This happened twice one day. Dealership said they replaced the throttle body assembly. When in limp it took forever to get through the intersection, long enough that the light changed back to red.

I have a 2015 ford f150 2.7 ecoboost with 66,000 miles on it, and my fuel pump has gone bad in it. I have heard from many fellow owners that the same style truck has also had fuel pump failures, most with less miles on them than mine. There is a recall on most of the other ford vehicles for their fuel pumps being at fall.

When filling gas tank, station fueling nozzle did not shut off, overflowing truck fill pipe. At next fueling, gas pipe was still full of gas at top flap valve; could not put gas into fuel tank. Took vehicle to dealer; who indicated that fuel tank was "collapsed" due to vacuum created by stopped up vent system. Fuel tank and accessories being replaced, but dealer charged me for work. Safety issue is collapsed fuel…

I just returned from my ford dealership today after my f-150 stopped cold and went into limp mode while i accelerated up a hill on hwy 78 in red lodge, mt. The dash lit up with a hill descent control and several other error messages. This would have been catastrophic if i had been accelerating while passing. The forums are full of similar problems and dealerships know they need to replace the throttle body. This…

The fuel pump on the 2015. F150 2.7 l ecoboost is faulty. Ford has recalled all other vehicles with this engine except the f150 model. Why? 2 fuel pumps have gone bad on my f150. After the 3 fuel pump was put in ford also had to replace the pcm so the fuel pump would work. My vehicle was being driven in traffic when the pump failed causing complete loss of power.

We had a throttle body issue this summer and had to have it replaced and towed. During driving, we lost all power, major safety issue! When i asked ford about it, they said they didn't know about the issue; however they issued several recalls regarding this. This truck isn't in the recall, which makes no sense. It is evident that ford has a major issue with their throttle bodies i have spoken with ford several…

While driving the vehicle will go into limp mode and lose power the hill assist light flashes,wrench light comes on, engine light comes on. Doing research there is a throttle body issue but i wasn't aware of it. It very dangerous because you lose power and have no throttle response.

This issue has now happened 6 times without showing a pattern. While driving the vehicle completely loses all throttle power and the message center displays 'service advancetrac' 'hill start assist disabled' and the abs and service engine lights illuminate. This has happened on back roads at slower speeds and on highways at 70 mph. Again, all throttle power is lost. This issue has been reported on numerous forums…
