2017 Ford F-150 problems and owner complaints

ECOBOOST ENGINE, AUTO STOP/START OPTION DISABLED BY PUSHING DASH BUTTON. TRUCK SHUTS OFF WHEN STOPPED AT STOP LIGHT LIKE THE AUTO STOP FUNCTION IS STILL ENABLED BUT THE ENGINE WILL NOT RESTART WHEN YOU RELEASE THE BRAKES. HAVE TO PUT THE TRANSMISSION IN NEUTRAL AND MANUALLY RESTART THE ENGINE USING THE KEY. THIS HAS HAPPENED TO ME ON 3 OCCASIONS WITHIN THE LAST WEEK.

ENGINE STALLS AT STOP (AFTER LETTING UP ON BRAKE AND AUTO START STOP RE-STARTS THE ENGINE) FOLLOWED BY "HILL START ASSIST NOT AVAILABLE" ERROR FLASHES ALONG WITH OTHER BRAKE RELATED ERRORS; VEHICLE ENGINE WON'T TURN OVER/START UNLESS TRANSMISSION IS PUT BACK INTO PARK. UPON RESTARTING ALL ENGINE ERROR/FAULT MESSAGES ARE CLEARED AND THINGS SEEM BACK TO NORMAL. TODAY WAS THE SECOND TIME THIS HAS HAPPENED. THE FIRST TIME WAS ABOUT 7 DAYS AGO. THIS IS DANGEROUS SHOULD IT HAPPEN ENTERING AN INTERSECTION. I REPORTED THE PROBLEM TO LIVERMORE FORD…

DRIVING DOWN THE INTERSTATE CRUISE SET AT 70 MPH HIT A COUPLE SMALL PATCH SPOTS AND THE THE STEERING WHEEL WENT CRAZY JERKING AROUND LIKE I HAD A BLOWOUT. I MERGED TO THE APRON OF THE INTERSTATE TO SLOW AND STOP. WHEN I WAS ALMOST STOPPED THE JERKING QUIT. I NOTIFIED DEALERSHIP AND TOOK IT TO THEM THEY FOUND NOTHING WRONG WITH THE TRUCK. I STARTED RESEARCH MYSELF AND THE PROBLEM IS KNOWN AS A DEATH WOBBLE. VERY DISAPPOINTING FROM A NEW TRUCK WITH 8000 MILES ON IT. THERE ARE SEVERAL VIDEOS OUT THERE OF THIS PROBLEM. FORD NEEDS TO ADDRESS T…

THE AUTO SHUT OFF SYSTEM WHEN YOU STOP WHEN THE BREAK IS APPLIED. THERE IS NO WAY TO PERMANENTLY SHUT THIS SYSTEM OFF. YOU CAN HIT A BUTTON EACH TIME YOU START THE VEHICLE, IN THE MANUEL IT DOES STAT YOU CAN TURN IT OFF BUT DOING AS IT STATES DOES NOT TURN IT OFF PERMANENTLY. WHEN NEEDING TO TAKE OFF QUICKLY OR IF YOU NEED TO MAKE A TURN WHEN THE VEHICLE TURNS OFF THE STEERING WHEEL IS HARD TO TURN SO YOU NEED TO LET UP OFF THE BREAK. THERE NEEDS TO BE A WAY FOR THE OWNER TO SHUT THIS BUTTON OFF PERMANENTLY IF THEY SO CHOOSE. I DON'T SEE WHER…

VEHICLE HAS LESS THAN 5000 MILES, AND EACH TIME I ENTER MY GARAGE I SMELL GASOLINE. IT APPEARS TO BE COMING FROM THE "EASY FUEL" CAPLESS FUEL TANK FILLER. IT HAS NOT BEEN OVERFILLED, AND NO FUEL IS SPILLED ON THE CAP OR NEAR IT IN THE BOTTOM. SEEMS LIKE GAS VAPOR IS EXITING THROUGH THE CAP AND FILLING MY GARAGE WITH FUMES.

WE ARE EXPERIENCING SEPARATE SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUES WITH OUR F-150: 1. THE CAPLESS GAS TANK SYSTEM CAUSES THE GAS SHUTOFF WHEN REFILLING TO NOT STOP AT 'FULL'. THIS CAUSES GAS TO SPRAY IN AN ARC FOR 3-4 SECONDS - COVERING BOTH PEOPLE AND THE GROUND WITH APPROX 16-24 OZ OF GAS. 2. THE FRONT DOORS, WHEN SUBJECTED TO FREEZING TEMPERATURES WILL OPEN BUT WILL NOT RECLOSE UNTIL THE LATCH MECHANISM IS C OMPLTWTELY DEFROSTED - APPROX 15 MINUTES. THIS MEANS THAT DURING THAT TIME THE DOORS ARE UNABLE TO BE CLOSED AT ALL. ADDITIONALLY, THE REAR VIEW CA…
