What 1,686 owners told NHTSA about the 2016 Ford F-150 Supercab Diesel

THE DOOR LOCKS AND LATCHES WILL NOT WORK IN FREEZING WEATHER. THERE ARE OTHER ISSUES SUCH AS THE WINDSHIELD WASHER FLUID CHECK VALVE FREEZING...HUGE IN ICEY CONDITIONS BECAUSE IF YOU DON'T HAVE A WAY TO CLEAN WINDOW IN CAR U ARE UNABLE TO SEE WELL. ON MINE IT IS THE DRIVER'S DOOR LATCH SO YOU CANNOT GET DOOR TO STAY CLOSED. KNOW ISSUE BUT RESPONSE BY FORD AND HOW THEY ARE HANDLING IS A FAILURE!! THE PARTS ARE OUT TO MARCH AND THEY WANT U TO JUST DEAL WITH IT.

VEHICLE IS A SUPERCREW (4 DOOR). DOOR LOCKS DO NOT LATCH IN WEATHER BELOW FREEZING. THANKFULLY, VEHICLE WAS STATIONARY WHEN DISCOVERED. THERE IS A FORD TSB ALREADY (TSB 16-0155). DEALER APPLIED A "TEMPORARY" FIX BECAUSE PARTS ARE NOT AVAILABLE, BUT I WOULD THINK THE DOORS STAYING CLOSED PROPERLY SHOULD BE A LARGER ISSUE THAN A TSB.

WHENEVER OUTSIDE TEMPERATURE IS BELOW FREEZING THE DRIVERS DOOR WILL NOT LATCH AT ALL AND HAS TO BE HELD CLOSED WHILE DRIVING. WHEN THE TEMPERATURE OF THE DOOR WARMS THE LATCH FUNCTIONS NORMALLY. THIS HAS HAPPENED AT LEAST SIX TIMES AND I HAVE IT DOCUMENTED ON VIDEO HOWEVER THE FILE IS TO LARGE TO ATTACH I CAN EMAIL IT ANOTHER WAY IF NEEDED WHEN I'M CONTACTED. *TR

THE HEAD LIGHTS ON BOTH DIM AND BRIGHT DO NOT SHINE AHEAD FAR ENOUGH TO SAFELY SEE AT NIGHT. I HAVE FRIENDS WHO HAVE 2015 MODEL YEAR OF THE SAME TRUCK AND THEY HAVE COMPLAINED TO ME ABOUT IT. AND IN BAD WEATHER THE SITUATION IS MUCH WORSE.

WITH THE TRUCK GAINING MOMENTUM AGAIN WITH QUICK THINKING I STEPPED ON THE PARKING BRAKE RIGHT NEXT TO THE BRAKE PEDAL AND CAME TO A STOP!!! ME AND MY GIRLFRIEND WERE SCARED WE WERE A MILE AWAY FROM MY HOUSE I CAREFULLY DROVE THE TRUCK HOME AND AT THREE STOP LIGHTS, I STOPPED AND I PRESSED THE BREAK AND I WAS WAITING FOR THE LIGHT TO TURN GREEN I PUSHED THE BRAKE IN A LITTLE BIT MORE THEN THE BREAK WOULD SINK IN ALL THE WAY IN. I GOGGLED THE SITUATION TO FIND OUT THAT THEY ARE INVESTIGATING THIS MATTER, THIS IS THE SECOND TIME FORD HAS LET ME DOWN I HAD A 2006 LINCOLN MARK LT SAME SITUATION HAPPENED TO ME IT HAD A RECALL ON THE BRAKE BOOSTER, I HAVE ALREADY CALL FORD CUSTOMER SERVICE TO MAKE A COMPLAINT, FORD THIS IS MY FAMILY TRUCK I DRIVE MY DAUGHTER IN THIS TRUCK THAT'S THE ONLY TIME I DRIVE IT , WITH PAYING 50000 ON A TRUCK I DESERVE A GOOD QUALITY TRUCK CAUSE JUST LIKE YALL BE RAISING THE PRICES LIKE NOTHING WE THE PEOPLE DESERVE A GOOD QUALITY TRUCK!!!

DRIVER SIDE DOOR WON'T LATCH; USING REMOTE, DOOR WON'T UNLOCK. UNDER FREEZING CONDITIONS THE DRIVER SIDE DOOR WON'T LATCH UPON CLOSING AFTER SITTING FOR AN HOUR OR SO. AMOUNT OF FORCE USED TO CLOSE THE DOOR MAKES NO DIFFERENCE. USING THE REMOTE, THE DOOR WON'T UNLOCK. THE KNOB ON THE DOOR GOES UP ABOUT HALFWAY AND THEN IMMEDIATELY DROPS BACK DOWN. THE DOOR WILL UNLOCK WITH THE KEY, BUT YOU CAN FEEL THE STRESS AS THE LOCK MOVES. APPEARS TO BE WATER RELATED. ONCE THE INTERIOR WARMS UP ENOUGH (UPWARDS OF 20-30 MINUTES OF IDLING, DEPENDING ON OUTSIDE TEMPS), THEN THE DOOR WILL LATCH AND THE LOCK WILL ENGAGE/DISENGAGE. PASSENGER DOOR UNAFFECTED AT THIS TIME, BUT IS VERY RARELY USED, MAYBE 30 TIMES IN THE FIRST SEVEN MONTHS OF OWNERSHIP. WET ENVIRONMENT, 100+ INCHES OF RAIN PER YEAR. PROBLEM ONGOING.

WHILE DRIVING, I EXPERIENCED A SUDDEN LOSS OF BRAKING ABILITY IN A FORD F-150 2016 3.5L V6 ECOBOOST WITH 10,600 MILES ON THE ENGINE. PEDAL, WHEN PRESSED ALL THE WAY TO THE FLOOR, PROVIDED SOME ABILITY TO SLOW DOWN IN GREAT LENGTH, BUT NO ABILITY TO COMPLETE STOP IN A TIMELY MANNER. *TR

MY DOORS FAIL TO RE-LATCH AFTER OPENING DURING COLD WEATHER. MY DOORS HAVE OPENED WHILE DRIVING SEVERAL TIMES WHEN THE DOOR IS CLOSED AND LOCKED WITHOUT ANYONE TOUCHING THE DOOR LATCH. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2016 FORD F-150. IN COLD WEATHER, THE FRONT DRIVER SIDE DOOR WAS DIFFICULT TO OPEN AND FAILED TO LATCH. THE CONTACT WAS REQUIRED TO SECURE THE DOOR FROM THE INSIDE IN ORDER FOR THE DOOR TO NOT OPEN WHILE DRIVING. THE FAILURE OCCURRED ONLY DURING COLD WEATHER CONDITIONS. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO A DEALER WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE FRONT DRIVER SIDE DOOR LATCH, THE FRONT DRIVER AND PASSENGER SHIELDS, AND THE FRONT DRIVER AND PASSENGER RODS NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED DUE TO THE PARTS NOT BEING AVAILABLE. THE CONTACT MENTIONED THAT IT HAD BEEN TWO WEEKS SINCE THE PARTS WERE ORDERED AND WERE NOT AVAILABLE FOR THE REPAIR. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 13,000. THE VIN WAS NOT AVAILABLE.

BOUGHT A BRAND NEW, 2016 F150 LARIAT V8 4X4. AT CIRCA 2500 MILES THE VEHICLE STARTED TO MAKE AN UNUSUAL NOISE WHEN DRIVING AT 45 TO 60-MPH. TOOK THE VEHICLE FOR REPAIR TO THE DEALERSHIP. DEALERSHIP HEARD THE NOISE ALSO, BUT WERE NOT ABLE TO LOCATE/FIX IT. THEY ADVISED ME TO CONTINUE DRIVING THE CAR TO SEE IF THE NOISE INCREASED. AT CIRCA 3750 MILES, I TOOK THE VEHICLE TO THE DEALERSHIP FOR A SECOND TIME SINCE THE NOISE WAS STILL PRESENT AND EVIDENT. THE DEALERSHIP HAS KEPT THE CAR FOR 10 DAYS, AND ALTHOUGH THE NOISE STILL CAN BE HEARD, THEY DEALERSHIP IS INFORMING ME THAT THEY ARE NOT ABLE TO LOCATE AND FIX THE NOISE. THEY HAVE INSTRUCTED ME TO PICK UP THE VEHICLE ALTHOUGH THEY DO NOT KNOW WHAT IS WRONG WITH IT. I AM WORRIED TO PICK UP A CAR THAT HAS NOT BEEN FIXED, THAT HAS A NOISE THAT WAS NOT PRESENT WHEN NEW, AND THAT IS HAPPENING WHEN DRIVING AT HIGH SPEEDS. THE DEALERSHIP/ FORD MUST ASSUME OWNERSHIP OF THE VEHICLE SINCE THEY CAN'T FIX IT, AND CAN'T ADVISE CUSTOMERS TO KEEP DRIVING THE VEHICLE "SINCE WE CAN'T FIND WERE THE NOISE IS COMING FROM, THERE IS NOTHING WRONG WITH IT". *TR

DOOR LOCKS FREEZING IN COLD (<32%) WEATHER. THIS IS MOSTLY A MAJOR INCONVENIENCE, BUT COULD, GIVEN THE RIGHT CIRCUMSTANCES, BE A SAFETY ISSUE WHERE IMMEDIATE INGRESS/EGRESS IS REQUIRED.

NHTSA ODI 10936835

PURCHASED TRUCK NEW, AT AROUND 5000 MILES THE DRIVERS DOOR WOULD NOT CLOSE, AFTER REPEATEDLY SLAMING THE DOOR THE LATCH FINALLY LATCHED, IT HAPPEND SEVERAL TIMES SINCE. I TOOK IT TO THE DEALER THEY SAID I NEEDED NEW LATCHES IN BOTH DOORS. THAY SAID IT IS A ISSUE ON ONLY THE UPPER LEVELS. AFTER WAITING A WEEK I TOOK THE TRUCK IN THAN THEY TOLD ME SOME OF THE PARTS ARE ON BACK ORDER AND DON'T KNOW WHEN THEY WILL RECEIVE THEM. I LEFT THE TRUCK UNTIL THEY GET IT FIXED. SEEMS LIKE A MAJOR SAFTY ISSUE IF YOU HAVE TO DRIVE WITH THE DOOR OPEN.

NHTSA ODI 10936747

WHEN THE OUTSIDE TEMPERATURE DROPPED THE VEHICLE LOCKS AND DOOR LATCHES STOPPED WORKING. THE DOORS WILL NOT LATCH, WHICH PREVENTS ME FROM SECURELY CLOSING THEM. THIS IS EFFECTING ALL OF THE DOORS. TEMPERATURE IS 32 AND BELOW.

I WENT OUT TO MY TRUCK THIS AM TO GO TO WORK AT 6AM - 22 DEGREES. I HAD STARTED MY TRUCK REMOTELY A COUPLE OF MINUTES PRIOR. I OPENED THE DRIVER DOOR AND IT WOULD NOT LATCH CLOSED WHEN I TRIED TO CLOSE THE DOOR. I WENT TO PASSENGER SIDE, IT OPENED BUT WOULD NOT LATCH. I TURNED THE ENGINE OFF, EXITED TRUCK, DOOR STILL WOULD NOT LATCH SHUT. I LEFT IT SIT FOR A BIT. CAME BACK AN HOUR LATER AND DOORS STILL WOULD NOT LATCH SHUT. I THEN CLOSED THE DOORS, UNLOCKED THE LOCKS WITH REMOTE, LOCKED THE DOORS, DOORS WERE NOW LATCHED SHUT BUT NOW CANNOT UNLOCK DOORS WITH REMOTE.

THE BRAKE PEDAL IS GOING ALL THE WAY TO THE FLOOR WITH LITTLE RESISTANCE AND NO WARNINGS ON THE DASH. IT STARTED ON 12-14-2016 AND HAS HAPPENED MANY TIMES BETWEEN THE 14TH AND THE 17TH. SINCE THEN THEY APPEAR TO BE WORKING AS DESIGNED. WHEN THEY WERE ACTING UP WITH THE TRUCK IN PARK OR MOVING I COULD PUSH THE PEDDLE ALL THE WAY TO THE FLOOR BOARD WITH LITTLE RESISTANCE. *TR

DURING TEMPERATURES BELOW FREEZING (32 F) ONE OR MORE OF THE DOOR LOCKS AND/OR LATCHES WILL FREEZE AND BECOME INOPERABLE. POWER LOCK BUTTONS WILL NOT FUNCTION TO UNLOCK THE DOOR AND DOOR HANDLES WILL NOT OPEN THE DOORS (FROM THE OUTSIDE). DOORS HAVE TO BE UNLOCKED FROM THE INSIDE, BY MANUALLY CYCLING THE PULL KNOB MULTIPLE TIMES TO LOOSEN THE FROZEN LOCK. FROZEN DOOR LATCHES ARE ONLY ABLE TO BE OPENED FROM THE INSIDE (USING THE INSIDE HANDLES). AT TIMES, THE FROZEN DOOR LOCKS AND LATCHES WILL NOT RE-SECURE THE DOORS AND THE DOORS WILL NOT LOCK OR THE LATCH WILL NOT SECURE AND THE DOOR WILL REMAIN UNSECURED/OPEN AND/OR UNLOCKED. TWICE I HAVE HAD THE DOORS POP OPEN WHILE DRIVING. *TR

I RECENTLY PURCHASED A NEW 2016 FORD F150 XLT 2.7L ECOBOOST TRUCK. ON DECEMBER 6, 2016 I WAS INVOLVED IN AN ACCIDENT WITH THIS VEHICLE. I FEEL THAT THIS TRUCK DID NOT ADEQUATELY STOP IN AN EMERGENCY SITUATION WITH AMPLE STOPPING DISTANCE. I HAVE DRIVEN TRUCKS OF THIS SAME SIZE TOWING A BOAT AND UNDER AN EMERGENCY SITUATIONS GOING DOWNHILL AND HAVE BEEN ABLE TO STOP WITH LESS DISTANCE THAN I HAD WITH THIS TRUCK TOWING ABSOLUTELY NOTHING. I WAS NOT SPEEDING AND ONLY TRAVELING BETWEEN 30 TO 35 MILES AN HOUR ON A FOUR LANE HIGHWAY WHICH IS CURRENTLY UNDER CONSTRUCTION, THE SPEED LIMIT FOR THIS AREA IS 45 RIGHT NOW BECAUSE OF THIS CONSTRUCTION. I WAS TRAVELING IN THE LEFT HAND LANE PLANNING TO MAKE A LEFT HAND TURN ONTO A ROAD THAT WAS A FEW MILES AWAY AT A MAIN INTERSECTION. SEVERAL VEHICLES AHEAD OF ME SOME INDIVIDUAL DECIDED THEY WERE GOING TO JUST MAKE A LEFT HAND TURN TO GET TO A STREET CLEAR ON THE OTHER SIDE OF THE HIGHWAY CAUSING EVERYONE BEHIND THEM TO SLAM ON THEIR BRAKES, HAVING TWO TO THREE CAR LENGTHS IN FRONT OF ME I HAD SLAMMED ON THE BRAKES AND THE TRUCK WAS SLOWING DOWN BUT NOT FAST ENOUGH SO THEN I PUT MY OTHER FOOT ON THE BRAKES AND STOOD ON THE BRAKES HOLDING THE STEERING WHEEL AND STILL THE TRUCK WAS NOT STOPPING ABSOLUTELY NO CHANGE IN THE RESPONSE OF IT BREAKING, KEEP IN MIND I WAY AROUND 235 LBS. I JUST DON'T UNDERSTAND WHY MY BRAND NEW TRUCK WITHOUT EVEN HAVING ITS FIRST OIL CHANGE HAS FAILED TO STOP AND EVERY OTHER VEHICLE ON THE ROAD WITH LESS DISTANCE THAN ME WAS ABLE TO STOP . I WAS ALSO PONDERING IF THE ECOBOOST SYSTEM MAY HAVE CONTRIBUTED TO IT SOMEHOW WITH THE START AND STOPPING OF THE MOTOR CAUSING SOME SORT OF PRESSURE LOSS IN THE SYSTEM. I NO LONGER TRUST THIS VEHICLE, I HAVE DRIVEN FORD TRUCKS FOR OVER 20 YEARS. *TR

I BOUGHT THE TRUCK IN JULY WITH 63 MILES ON IT. A MONTH OR SO LATER I NOTICED THE BRAKE PEDAL GOING TO THE FLOOR WHEN STOPPED AT A TRAFFIC LIGHT. I TOOK TO THE DEALER AND THEY LOOKED AT IT AND TOLD ME IT WAS NORMAL FOR THE PEDAL TO GO TO THE FLOOR UNDER PRESSURE BECAUSE THE SYSTEM CALCULATED HOW MUCH PRESSURE WAS NEEDED TO STOP THE VEHICLE. TODAY 12-6-2016 I WAS DRIVING THE TRUCK AND THE PEDAL WENT TO THE FLOOR WHEN STOPPING, WHILE THE TRUCK WAS STILL MOVING. I DROPPED IT OFF AT THE DEALER THIS MORNING AND WILL HAVE TO WAIT AND SEE WHAT THEY SAY. I THINK IT IS A BAD MASTER CYLINDER AND THINK THE STORY ABOUT THE COMPUTER CONTROLLING THE BRAKES IS JUST TO GET ME OUT OF THE SHOP. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT RENTED A 2016 FORD F-150. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 60 MPH, THE BRAKE PEDAL TRAVELED TO THE FLOOR. THE VEHICLE FAILED TO COME TO A COMPLETE STOP AND CRASHED INTO A GUARDRAIL.

THE VIN AND FAILURE MILEAGE WERE NOT AVAILABLE. UPDATED 02/03/17*LJ CONSUMER STATED VEHICLE WAS RENTAL BY ENTERPRISE. UPDATED 9/7/18*JB

JUST BOUGHT OUR TRUCK 3 WEEKS AGO AND THE REAR-CAMERA WENT OUT. FROUGHT IT INTO THE DEALER AND THEY FOUND THAT THE CAMERA HARNESS WAS CHEWED BY A RODENT AND HAD TO REPLACE THE HARNESS. PER MESSAGES OFF THE WEBSITE, FOUND THAT ALL WIRE HARNESSES IN FORD TRUCKS AND OTHER VEHICLES, HAVE A SOY COATING ON THEM THAT ATTRACTS RODENTS. IF THIS IS HAPPENING TO ALL VEHICLES NOW OF DAYS, THEY BETTER FIND A DIFFERENT WAY TO COAT WIRES IN ALL VEHICLES. MAJOR PROBLEM AND VERY COSTLY. IT WILL RUN US $1800.00 FOR THE FIX AND ITS A BRAND NEW TRUCK.
