What 1,066 owners told NHTSA about the 2017 Ford F-150 Supercab

SUDDEN LOSS BRAKES IN A HARD STOP. THERE ARE VIDEOS EXPLAINING THE PROBLEM WHERE THE ABS UNIT GOES INTO BYPASS AND FOR ONE WHEEL; BUT THEN THE VALUE DOES NOT RESET. THIS ISSUE HAS HAPPENED TO ME 4 TIMES WHILE DRIVING THE CAR, AND TO MY WIFE ONCE. TAKING OUT THE ABS FUSE, AND THEREBY DISABLING THE FUNCTION SOLVES THE PROBLEM, AS THE BYPASS VALVE WILL NOT ENGAGE. HOWEVER YOU LOSE THE MANDATED FEATURE OF ABS. DETAILED EXPLANATION FOUND AT HTTPS://WWW.YOUTUBE.COM/WATCH?V=0R46_UNYYK8. THIS STARTED AT 7,500 MILES AND CONTINUED UNTIL I DISABLED THE FEATURE WHEN FORD COULD NOT ISOLATE AND FIX THE ISSUE.

WHILE APPLYING THE BRAKES, IT IS VERY EASY TO SIMULTANEOUSLY PUSH ON THE THROTTLE PEDAL. THIS HAS HAPPENED SEVERAL TIMES, ONE TIME RESULTING IN A REAR-END COLLISION, THIS IS MY FIRST FORD AND THIS PROBLEM HAS NEVER HAPPENED IN ANY OF THE NUMEROUS VEHICLES I HAVE OWNED. I HAD THOUGHT THAT SOFTWARE WAS IN PLACE THAT WOULD NOT ALLOW THE ENGINE TO REV WITH THE BRAKE APPLIED. IF NOT SO, IT WOULD SEEM LIKE A VERY GOOD IDEA.

THE VEHICLE HAS A VERY NOTICEABLE VIBRATION AT 45 MPH COMING FROM THE REAR END . THE VEHICLE HAS BEEN INTO THE DEALER 6 TIMES NOW. THE MECHANIC THAT WENT ON A RIDE WITH ME STATED YES THAT HE' AGREES IT'S THERE BUT THAT THERE IS NO FIX FROM FORD YET.

VEHICLE WAS INVOLVED IN A COLLISION WHEREIN IT "T-BONED" A VEHICLE STOPPED ACROSS A ROADWAY AT 60MPH. I WAS TRAVELING STRAIGHT IN THE LEFT LANE OF A DIVIDED HIGHWAY. THE STEERING HUB AIRBAG DID NOT DEPLOY, AND THE SHOULDER HARNESS DID NOT PREVENT ME FROM STRIKING THE STEERING WHEEL HUB , WHICH FAILURES RESULTED IN BREAKING MY STERNUM. I ALSO RECEIVED A WHIPLASH.

THE BLACK STITCHING ON THE LEATHER AREAS OF THE DASH IS TURNING PINK. I BELIEVE IT IS BEING CAUSED BY SUN EXPOSURE. I CONTACTED THE DEALER AND THEY HAVE SENT PICTURES TWICE TO FORD EXPLAINING THE PROBLEM. THEY HAVE REFUSED BOTH TIMES TO COVER THIS UNDER WARRANTY, STATING IT WAS CAUSED FROM HARSH CHEMICALS BEING USED IN CLEANING. I HAVE NEVER CLEANED THE DASH, ONLY DUSTED IT WITH A CLEAN CLOTH. I PURCHASED THIS TRUCK DECEMBER 9, 2017. I NOTICED THIS AND REPORTED IT TO THE DEALER FEBRUARY 9, 2018.

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 WHERE THIS TURNING THE ENGINE OFF AND ON ALL THE TIME IS SAVING FUEL AND GOOD ON THE STARTER.

WHILE IN MOTION, I ACCELERATED TO PASS ANOTHER VEHICLE. UPON COMPLETING THE PASS, I PUMPED MY BRAKES TO SLOW DOWN. WHEN I RELEASED THE BRAKES, MY TRUCK RAPIDLY ACCELERATED AND WOULD NOT STOP ACCELERATING, THOUGH I HAD NOT TOUCHED THE GAS PEDAL AND TRIED BRAKING SEVERAL TIMES. THE ONLY WAY I COULD STOP THE SUDDEN UNINTENDED ACCELERATEION WAS TO PUT THE TRUCK IN NEUTRAL AND BRAKE. EVEN AS I DID THIS, THE ENGINE CONTINUED TO TACH AT HIGH RPMS. AFTER TURNING THE VEHICLE OFF AND ON AT LEAST TWICE, THE ISSUE FINALLY RESOLVED. THE DEALER FOUND ONLY 1 CODE ERROR, SHOWING THE HIGH TACH, AND BLAMED THE FLOOR MAT. I CAN SAY WITH 100% CERTAINTY, IT WAS NOT THE FLOOR MAT.
