2013 Ford F-150 Problems and Recalls: What Owners Report

Lead frame failed. Caused vehicle to downshift suddenly while speedometer read very low. Multiple times. At highway speed in full auto or in manual gear shift override. The vehicle would downshift at 65mph to 2nd or 1st gear, locking up the rear axle. Cost to repair at dealership was $810.61

My 2013 f-150 is experiencing the exact same symptoms that are covered under a Ford recall for 2011 thru 2012 f150s 16n02 molded leadframe extended warranty recall. The transmission will downshift into first gear all by itself, even at highway speeds, resulting in rear wheel skidding and transmission lock-up.

I was trying to pass another car when my engine stalled. I was going about 45 to 50 mph when I went to accelerate around the car and my engine completely stalled and lost power. The transmission light appeared. It had been raining alot and was humid and wet although not actively raining at time of malfunction. I drive a new Ford f150 v6 with ecoboost technology.

After driving about 200 miles at 65mph in the rain, I accelerated quickly to pass a vehicle and my 2013 Ford f-150 ecoboost truck seemed to lose power/stall and I could no longer accelerate. The engine light flashed for several minutes while this was happening and after several minutes (probably 2-3), power was restored and the engine light went off.

Ford f150 ecoboost 2013 13,000 mile the engine shakes and a lost of power when passing. The check engine light come on while its happen but shuts off when the power come back. I have taken it to Ford 4times but because it has no check engine light on they look at me like if I'm crazy.

Driving down the road under high way speeds and something internal in the engine let go. Motor locked up almost caused me to get rear ended. Ford dealership said it was not uncommon for it to happen. Have about 85k miles on the truck.

Vehicle was in motion, pulling a trailer and the light came on and then shut down completely. Turned it off then back on and it was fine for 2 blocks then did it again. It took several attempts to get it to the dealership. They informed it is electronic throttle body failure.

Truck has stalled many times I brought it to Ford dealership and they say they can't find anything wrong,but it still stalls. It's happened on the highway,county street ,city street . It started march of 2018 truck has 50,000 miles the first time it happened.

Brakes go all the way down to the floor. Appears to be the same issue as some of the other 2013 models were recalled for, but for some reason, Ford didn't include this model. This model should be included too.

Truck was parked several hours in son-in-laws driveway. Wife got in truck, after cranking and placing in reverse, no brakes! Backed into son-in laws vehicle damaging it and damaging f 150. F 150 still under warranty, taken to mullinax Ford mobile al. Found mastercylinder defect , failed gasket caused brake booster to fail. Master cylinder replaced by mullinax Ford, mobile al.

Brake rotors are warping quickly; twice with only 25,000 miles. Dealer has turned rotors twice, but not willing to replace rotors.

On 4/16/2016 I was involved in a collision. After investigating the cause, it was found that the master cylinder was low with no visible leaks. Witness stated that they saw my brake lights come on but my vehicle didn't slow down. I contacted Ford about this and they had the "we don't care" attitude. My truck is still under warranty, and has had 99% of all maintenance done through Ford.

Driving and truck died, without power, brakes, steering difficult., no dash lights, no hazard lights, nothing. Tried to restart, nothing, pushed it out of highway. Used car dealer, replaced pcm? Now it drives, engine light on. Taking to dealer, first available appointment next week. 28,000 miles f150 2013 4x4 pickup. Only getting 13.5 mpg without trailer, worse with. Not happy.

Vehicle sputtered and stalled while slowing down on freeway. After towing to dealer, dealer could only find loose battery cable. 2 days later engine stalled again while accelerating on freeway with same symptoms. Vehicle will not start and is with dealer who initially said no issues can be found. Vehicle symptoms match description of "limp mode".

Eco boost engine lost power when trying to accelerate and pass. This has happened three times. Ford dealer could not reproduce now and no response from Ford. Traveling speed 75 and tried to pass at 85.

While trying to pass slower vehicles on the freeway my f150 ecoboost engine lost power and the truck started to shake. This situation almost cause a serious accident as traffic behind me had to rapidly slow down to allow me time to pass the slower vehicles and get out of the way.
