NO COLLISION ALARMS OR PREVENTIVE COLLISION HELP THAT IS SUPPOSED TO BE ON THESE TRUCKS. thank god no one was SERIOUSLY HURT that we know of BUT IT LITERALLY MESSED WITH MY PTSD AND MENTAL HEALTH. she sat in the vehicle and cried because its brand New and there is less than 400 miles on it. so know I have to pay for a GARAGE door that I don't own and fix a brand new truck. that I have only made 3 payments on. I don't have pictures of front yet because I'm afraid to move it until the tow truck comes to get it in the morning. then I will get to see the truck damage

Front driver airbag did not deploy. Vehicle has been totaled and may not be available for inspection. Driver seatbelt tightened requiring an X-ray due to chest pains. Ford has ignored complaint. Unsure if police or insurance inspected though both questioned the airbag not deploying.

In the first week with only 107 miles, the brakes failed 3 times at very low speeds. Once while backing out and no brakes at all. 2 days later while turning a corner in a parking light they totally failed and I just missed hitting a car. And the 3rd time when I was trying driving out of the Ford dealership they failed and I hit the dealership truck and damaged both vehicles. They didn’t believe me until I took it to the garage and parked it. Then they started it up it had no brakes.
