2010 Ford F-150 Power Train Problems, Complaints and Defects

Issue ID	1464367
Internal NHTSA #	11091322
Manufacurer	Ford Motor Company

File date	27/04/18
Component	POWER TRAIN
Product type code	VEHICLE
Description of the problem	The vehicle downshifted abruptly without warning or indication at 75mph on the highway locking the rear tires causing the vehicle to spin out of control almost rolling over and making contact with other vehicles traveling at high rates of speed. The vehicle was diagnostically checked and inspected at a ford service center. They indicated that there was no mechanical or electrical failure to repair. The truck currently operates in the same manner as it did prior to the transmission downshifting. In my opinion, the vehicle exhibits the same failure mode that ford fixed under recall 16s19. This design flaw is extremely life threatening and hazardous. I have parked my vehicle. I contacted ford 4 times and even though that 1 individual from ford did indicate that my vehicle was indeed affected by the design flaw associated with the 16s19 recall, it was not on the "list" of vehicles to be recalled so it will not be fixed due to a vin number selection methodology that he didn't disclose. I have no way to fix the vehicle. The reason is because new software must be flashed on the power train control module in order to remove the design flaw and i have no way to know if the new software on the pcm that was developed for f150s through years 2011 - 2013 is compatible with the 2010 f150s and ford will not allow you to talk to any technical reps to determine if that is possible. The dealership service technicians cannot determine system software compatibility either and are extremely risk adverse to doing anything that was not approved by ford considering the safety implications of this problem. This vehicle and others like it are just ticking time bombs on the highway. Mine will be parked until something is done by nhtsa or ford.

What is Recall?
A recall is when a product is removed from the market or a correction is made to the product because it is either defective or potentially harmful.
What is Failure?
Failure is the state or condition of not meeting a desirable or intended objective, and may be viewed as the opposite of success. Product failure ranges from failure to sell the product to fracture of the product, in the worst cases leading to personal injury, the province of forensic engineering.
What is Defect?
Non-conformance of a car component with the specified requirements, or non-fulfillment of user expectations, including the safety aspects.
