I was stopped at a traffic light and all of a sudden my rear window exploded. It sent glass forward richoceting of the front windshield into my eyes. It was like a gun shot was fired into my truck. This caused me to have post traumatic stress. This and the fact that no one believed me that the rear window spontaneously exploded. Since my care was paid for, the window was paid out of pocket adding insult to injury
The contact owns a 2018 Ford F-150. The contact stated that while driving at various speeds, the vehicle unintendedly downshifted and jerk upon depression of the accelerator pedal. There was no warning light illuminated. The vehicle was taken back to the independent mechanic; however, the mechanic unable to determine the cause of the failure. The vehicle was then taken to a dealer and the throttle body was replaced; however, the failure persisted. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The vehicle was not repaired. The failure mileage was approximately 88,000.
The contact owns a 2018 Ford F-150. The contact stated that occasionally while the vehicle was parked or idling; while attempting to accelerate, the engine revved and the transmission hesitated before responding, causing the vehicle to jerk forward. The contact learned that the failure was known as hard shifting. The failure first occurred intermittently but had since become constant. The contact had taken the vehicle to the dealer who diagnosed that the transmission had failed and needed to be replaced. The vehicle had not been repaired. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure and opened a case. The contact was then transferred to the NHTSA Hotline. The approximate failure mileage was 92,000.
I purchased this vehicle with less than 50K miles on it. There was a slight shudder on the test drive, but the salesman and I deduced it was the aggressive tread of the tires it came with. I made the purchase anyway as my previous two F150s were great vehicles, and until this truck, service questions were usually rectified well within expectations. After a couple of weeks, there were several little "incidents" of clanking sound when turning the truck on, and now and then, the sound was accompanied by a harsh change in gears, from Park to Reverse and then to Drive. Overall, the shudder came back regularly, and I can recreate it at will; 99% of the time, it would happen at less than 30mph and around 1,500 to 2,000 rpm between 4th & 6th gear. I brought the vehicle back in for regular servicing and mentioned the shudder. I also offered twice for the mechanics to ride with me. But, they took it out alone and then reported they could not recreate the issue. I was at highway speed yesterday, and the truck began slowing down on its own in heavy traffic. I had the accelerator almost to the floor before it would respond so we could get out of the way of other traffic and safely off the highway. This morning (10/27/22), the check engine light is on, and the conversation with the Ford dealership was not fruitful. The earliest opening they have to run a diagnostic is 11/7/22. And, they reported that "if it's a transmission issue, we can't do anything about it, right now" with no apparent reason or estimated time of when. They advised me to check with another FORD service shop since the truck remains under warranty. This is going to be a challenging conversation as there are only a handful of other options in our region of West Virginia. Most of them require a long-drive, or in my case, an expensive tow.
The 10 speed transmission has sever lag in shifting causing the vehicle to stop in intersections and in heavy traffic. It is failing to shift gears at low speeds and into reverse without significant engine revving (RPMs). I took the vehicle to Roush Ford Columbus Ohio (10/25/2022) and they reset the Adaptive Transmission. The next day (10/26/2022) the vehicle was worse and not drivable. The vehicle had not previously had any service lights on. Now after service there is a check engine light on that came on after driving a 1/4 mile.
In October 2022, I began noticing while driving slight jerking, hesitation and apparent engine or transmission noise that appeared that my truck wanted to accelerate of when idling to a stop. A service light did come on at this point. I took my truck in to Koons Ford in Falls Church Virginia and reported my observations and concerns to Service Advisor [XXX]. [XXX] advised me that his service technician could diagnose the issue, and that the fee for this diagnostic work would be $250. I paid this fee with my credit card, but still don't have a record of this payment as it didn't appear on the invoice I received when the catalytic converters were replaced. [XXX] advised me that the issues I reported to me at the conclusion of the diagnostic testing that I needed new catalytic converters. The issue persisted and subsequently told by [XXX] after bringing my vehicle back to the dealership for almost 3 days of diagnostic work that I now needed a new transmission. I had been driving my truck and experiencing jerking and stalling to the detriment of my safety and that of my wife and grandchildren. I had to wait almost 4 weeks for the catalytic converters to come in for the catalytic converter installment. I was never advised during the period I was waiting for the catalytic converters to come in that driving the truck posed a safety risk so I drove it, albeit on a limited basis, while waiting on the parts to come in. A service light did come on at some point after the catalytic converted was installed and I coordinated a time to bring the vehicle back to Koons and as I indicated previously, after almost 3 days of presumably Ford technicians evaluating my, I was advised I needed a new transmission. I only have 80K miles on this truck that I purchased in November 2018. I understand the F-150 trucks, and late model F-150 trucks including 2018s have been found to have 10 speed transmission issues. This was not mentioned in any of my conversations with Ford. INFORMATION Redacted PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (F
Vehicle had electrical issues - Diagnosis by dealership was water damage to the Body Control Module. This module is inside the cabin on the front passenger area by their feet/legs. The issues included - flashers goin off, horn going off, truck bed gate dropping open - while parked and while driving down highway, and entire vehicle just shutting down while ALL of the issues happened at once. People have been put at risk by the gate dropping and the immediate shut down of an operating vehicle. The dealer was able to reproduce the problem. I had it happen twice. I have since identified that it is something that is a known issue on F150 forums. So much so that the likely cause of the water damage has been identified, and forwarded to the manufacturer. They are not fixing the issue. Manufacturer's dealership technician identified the water damage as the root cause. Required a replacement Body Control Module. Possible warning signs: Noted by myself and others. Emergency flashers randomly going off. Power drain on batteries. Horn going off randomly. Root cause: Unsealed seam between body panels under the hood in the engine bay. Leaking water falls on firewall and then onto the Body Control Module electrical component. Shorting will eventually ensure. This can happen any time. F150 forum thread documenting the likely culprit leaking seam: https://www.f150forum.com/f118/water-leak-cowl-seam-474781/
2018 Ford F-150 Platinum has had and continues to have transmission issues even though the truck has been taken to be serviced for the same condition 4 times. This vehicle has the 10 speed automatic transmission. The first sign of transmission troubles was a loss of power while shifting from 3 to 4 gear. This was reported for service and technicians replaced the valve synchronizer and the clutches which looked worn and metal deposits were detected on the fluid. This problem disappeared for a while but started again slowly increasing as time passed. It was taken again to the shop and again the valve synchronizer and clutches were replaced again. This time the problem continued but other problem’s arose including heavy knocking while shifting, jerking and hard shifting. We have taken the truck in for servicing and problems continue and Ford is not responding indicating that the unit did not show the problem reported.
Ford Initiated 21B10 Cam Phaser reprogram recall, which updates the software to prevent rattling on start up. My issue the software update is a temporary repair that will ultimately reduce Ford repair liability when vehicles power train warranty expires. With my personal vehicle I experienced a transmission failure while commuting on a congested Hwy in a construction zone. The transmission failed at 18000 Miles. The 21B10 PCM software update was performed in July and did not take, the engine rattle on cold start has resurfaced. In addition, it is my understanding that this issue causes the engine to run harder and is less efficient with fuel. This is most likely the reason my fuel mileage never reached the manufacturer benchmarks. I have taken the vehicle back to a shop and the rework is 10 hours, the dealer estimated 30-45 days for parts ordering and service back logs. All of this is at my detriment. I will still have to pay payments and insurance and suffer loss of use. It is my hope that these extended warranty issues can be reviewed 21B10, is an extended warranty, the is no S; however, I believe there should be.
The contact owns a 2018 Ford F-150. The contact stated while driving approximately 30 MPH, the low tire pressure warning light illuminated. The vehicle was driven to a local dealer, where it was diagnosed and determined that there was no physical failure with the tire. The vehicle had not been repaired. The contact researched online and related the failure to NHTSA Campaign Number: 21V155000 (Tires). The manufacturer had been informed of the failure. The failure mileage was 54,000.
Engine rattles for 10 seconds at start up caused by the camshaft timing phasers in the engine not performing correctly. This is an ongoing problem with Ford trucks. This causes unpredictable performance from the engine at any given time. It will set a permanent code in the PCM for camshaft timing not in specifications, Check engine light. Ford was fixing the problem after complaints to customer care but doesn't now.
I have a 3.5 ecoboost in my F150 and it has the known cam phaser problem. Ford is refusing to pay for the repair even though they know and have acknowledged the problem. This issue is pretty much effecting every 3.5 built. Being a mechanical component within the motor I would think that it will eventually fail causing a catastrophic failure in the motor that if it happens at the wrong time it could cause a serious traffic crash.
Trucks transmission makes a loud noise when shifting from park to drive, trucks transmission also jerks when letting off the accelerator. Trucks engine makes a knocking noise when idling truck has 36000 miles on it!
This has happened to me several times over the last year. While towing and decelerating the engine shuts off and the following error message appears "Auto startstop manual restart required". This appears to only happen when towing and the rpms are under 800. Restarting the engine is difficult. This has happened at exit ramps, stop lights and in slow traffic. This is very dangerous and has almost caused an accident.
10R80 transmission disengages. 2018 F150 with 136,000 miles, transmission began intermittent shifting at approximately 120,000 miles. Reported to dealership, asked for TCM/ECM update. Dealership refused, saying there was no update for this vehicle. Replaced the valve body and shift solenoids at 134,000 no change. At roughly 135,000 miles called a different Ford dealership in my area, service writer stated there is still no software update for this vehicle, & casually said it's probably a clutch problem. The transmission 'works' properly when it is gear, it does not select or shift properly. At times, the transmission disengages and throttle control is lost, sometimes during these events the engine races, other times it goes to idle. Either way, throttle pedal is ineffective. Contrary to the service writer's assumption, this is not clutches, it is software. This condition is dangerous as the transmission often disengages when accelerating onto the roadway, during these episodes, the driver has to take evasive action to avoid being hit from behind or worse, in cross traffic, from the side.
I was driving on the highway at 65 mph. A warning light came on saying my driver's side blind spot warning was not working. Then immediately a warning light with a wrench came on and said that there was a problem with the transmission. Then my truck shut down completely. It is not able to start, and the Ford dealer says they have no idea why.
I have a 2018 F-150 2wd and right after my warranty ran out at 60K my transmission died at 62K I was told I should report this to you because I know there is a class action lawsuit against Ford because this new 10 gear transmission has had A LOT of issues
Trans hard shifts between 2-4. It skips gears and aggressively slams into the next. Also it slams into reverse.
The steering wheel has cracked in the center area housing the AIR BAG and HORN. I believe this is a safety hazard. With the crack going over half of the way through the steering wheel, there is a chance of the AIR BAG DEPLOYING without cause.
I own a 2018 F150 Platinum with 75,000 miles and have been experiencing transmission issues. I have the 10R80 10 speed transmission and started noticing hard shifting when it had roughly 50,000 miles. I took the truck in under warranty with 59,000 miles an Ford did the relearn repair which only lasted for 7-8,000 miles. The problem came back and got 10 times worse. Now I have had multiple near miss accidents due to the truck hesitating during acceleration at stop lights and turns, getting stuck in higher gears (stays in 6 gear and wont change until I turn the truck off), very hard shifting, jerky, jumping around from gear to gear and rough downshifting. I was able to get a dealership to check it out and they "suspects" it is from axial movement of the CDF clutch cylinder sleeve. I was told it would cost $7,100 to make the repair or $9,800 to replace the whole transmission. I reached out to Ford Customer Service and they checked to see if there were any assistance programs to help with repairs. They "politely" told me there were none available and that there was no one else I could talk to. She said she could give me the Ford mailing address if I wanted to send a letter. I have read countless articles and posts from people that have this transmission and Ford and GMC need to issue a recall before someone dies or gets seriously injured due to their defect. I'm happy to speak more on my issues if needed and appreciate any pressure you can put on Ford to issue a recall.
I was driving my Ford F150 on road. My tire pressure warning came on. I pulled into a fast food restaurant. I retrieved my tire changing tools. I tried to loosen the wheel lugs. The tire changing wrench would not fit the lug nuts. I tried hitting the wrench to force lug wrench on to nut. It would not fit. I called a tire repair shop and a truck arrived. His wrench would not fit either. He left and returned with a large hammer. He drove the wrench socket onto the lug nut and was able to loosen all lug nuts. I called the dealer and spoke with service. The lug nut has a ss sheet metal wrap around the lug nut. When the nut is removed, as in a tire rotation, the ss sheet metal wrap is stretched and deformed, thereby making the lug wrench useless. The dealer said to bring truck in and they would replace the lug nuts. I lost 3 hours and paid the tire repair shop $45.00. Unacceptable, could have happened to anyone, anywhere.
The contact owns a 2018 Ford F-150. The contact stated that the fuel pump was previously replaced; however, the failure recurred while driving at an undisclosed speed, and the vehicle stalled with the check engine warning light illuminated. The vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic who diagnosed that the fuel pump needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 72,500.
While driving 5mph 5 minutes after starting the truck, the truck caught on fire and burst into flames after stalling out.
The contact owns a 2018 Ford F-150. The contact stated while driving at various speeds, there was a knocking sound coming from the engine compartment. The contact stated that the vehicle had stalled several times. The contact believed that the vehicle was leaking oil; however, when the coolant reservoir was inspected, the coolant fluid was low, but no visible leaks were found. The contact stated that the vehicle was experiencing excessive oil consumption. There was no warning light illuminated. The vehicle was taken to a local dealer; however, it has not been repaired. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure and referred the contact to the NHTSA Hotline for assistance. The failure mileage was approximately 125,000.
The tailgate on my truck has opened while driving down the road. This has happened several times since I have owned the truck. There are several recalls for 2018 F 150 tailgate issues. I have taken it to the Ford dealer, but was told there is no recall on trucks in my VIN range.
I have a 2018 F150 that I purchased new. Since that time , I have oil changes & tire rotations done . Yesterday I went in to have oil/ rotation done & was informed that they can’t get the lug nuts off as they are sold with cheap lug nuts that swell up making it impossible to remove the lug nuts without destroying them & even making it impossible to change a flat on the road . Being told I need to purchase new lug nuts in order to to do a rotation. I feel this is equipment failure. This vehicle is still under a warranty. This should be a recall item , as it affects & hinders maintenance on a vehicle.
The contact owns a 2018 Ford F-150. The contact stated that upon starting the vehicle, the engine was making abnormal rattling sounds. There was no warning light illuminated. The contact associated the failure to Customer Satisfaction Program Campaign Numbers: 21N03 and 21N08. The dealer and the manufacturer were notified of the failure and referred the contact to the NHTSA Hotline. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The failure mileage was approximately 67,000.
Harsh shifting Harsh down shifting delayed shifting between gears A complete malfunction at highway speeds. The truck goes from gear 10 to gear 1 and stays almost in neutral for up to 20 seconds, completely dangerous Ford ignores the problem even though thousands of people online are having the same issue. Dealer(s), 6 dealers contacted as of today, cannot get my truck in for 6-8 weeks. I have had the truck in the shop for shifting and transmission issues at least 4 times over the last 18 months. The "problem" goes away for a while but then comes right back. This time is by far the worst and no one seems to care. It is unacceptable and extremely dangerous. When your truck loses power and won't go back into gear while traveling 70 mph... it is absolutely terrifying!
Issue is with the electric steering rack. Vehicle has 34,000 miles. Purchased used. Have been having to constantly to correct the vehicle that drifts to the left. Can hear the electric steering motor constantly attempting to correct driver's correction. Vehicle is equipped with engine auto shut down feature, which when starting to turn from a stopped/shutdown, becomes very hard. Purchased four (4) new tires six (6) months ago. Now both front tires are "scalloped", which effects the control and ride.
This 2018 F150 developed a cranking noise when starting the engine. Dealership tried two software upgrades per manufacturer notices to solve the issue. The issue was not solved and was said to be Cam Phasers need to be replaced. Manufacturer internal document to dealer stated that driving the vehicle with this problem would not cause any problems and is safe to drive. Dealership had been waiting months for parts. Set-up for an appointment was for later this month, but last month while driving on the Interstate the engine light which was on from the engine issue but a new light, the wrench light came on with the engine light flashing. All power was being lost and had to dodge other vehicles to move over to emergency lane as I had no control of the vehicle. While waiting 12 hours for a tow, I had researched this issue online and found that the manufacturer had a memo out not to drive the vehicle under this condition and have a flatbed tow the vehicle to the nearest dealership and do not start the vehicle up. That this was a catastrophic power train failure and ECU failure. The vehicle sits at the dealership now and is still waiting to be looked at as it cannot start up and has to be pushed within the service area.
My 10 speed ford started acting up. First it started with rough and hard shifting into third gear and no has gotten progressively worse to jumping out of gear when trying to accelerate onto the highway or just simple driving to the store. Now it will not hardly move. Ford told me I needed a new transmission for $8000. Dont have 8k and this is my only vehicle.
Transmissions slips out of gear both during acceleration and at cruising speed. Vehicle has stalled in roadway in on-coming traffic due to transmission slipping out of gear. Problem exists consistently. 66,850 miles on the vehicle.
1. Vehicle accelerates on its own when shifting into drive and releasing the brake. 2.Vehicle lunges forward when the transmission is shifting from 1st to 2nd gear or 2nd to 3rd gear. This occurs in the lower gears only. 3. Doesn't shift into the next higher gear and the RPM's are running high which should activate a gear change but it doesn't occur. 4. The RPM's are increasing but there is very little movement of the vehicle. It feels like the transmission is slipping. 5. These problems are not consistent.It may occur once a week or 3 times a week. These problems go away if I stop moving and return the vehicle to the PARK position and they have never occurred over 40 MPH.
Vehicle slips out of gear between 3rd and 4th gear and between 7th and 8th gear causing vehicle to slow down unexpectedly. I can make vehicle available for inspection. Took to ford dealer in South Carolina and was told there is no fix other than a new transmission.
Backup camera failed/does not show anything on dash screen. Cannot see behind me when backing up. The dealer service center confirmed the failure and ordered a new wiring harness at my cost of $450.00. The dealer said the wiring harness for the camera needs to be replaced. The camera worked sporadically and then failed. There is now a message on my dash screen saying the camera does not work.
My truck has an automatic start-stop feature. About twice a month, when I am at a stop and the auto stop shuts down the engine, the whole truck will shut down. I will then have to put the transmission into park, turn the key to off and then restart the truck. A warning light comes up on my front display which says Auto StartStop Shift to P, then Restart Engine. The A with the arrow around it is in orange. This has caused me many issues in traffic and I have been close to getting rear ended on multiple occasions because of it. I have had it to the dealer, Haldeman Ford of Kutztown, on 5 different occasions over the past 6 months and it is still not resolved. The dealership has replaced the battery, did a system reboot and replaced the starter. I have shown them pictures and videos of it happening. They put a computer scanner on my truck that I had to use to record when it happened which I did. They were also able to experience it themselves during one service appointment. My first service appointment was 3.14.2022
The contact owns a 2018 Ford F-150. The contact stated that while driving at 20 MPH, the vehicle hesitated during acceleration and made an abnormal rattling noise. The vehicle was taken to the dealer where it was diagnosed that the failure was related to Customer Satisfaction Programs: 21B10 (Cam Phaser Replacement) and 21N08 (PCM Reprogram Due to Engine Shudder) however, the warranty had expired. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure and informed the contact that the previous owner was mailed notification of Customer Satisfaction Program: 21B10 (Cam Phaser Replacement) and provided no further assistance. The failure mileage was approximately 60,000.
Brakes failed, without prior notice. Brake fluid leaking out immediately upon refilling. Had to have truck towed to Ford Autonation Scottsdale 8555 E Frank Lloyd Write Blvd, Scottsdale 85260. Technician stated that Brake Master Cylinder leaking from the rear seal and into the brake booster. Needed to replace the master cyinder AND brake booster. This is the identical situation that initiated the recall notice NTHSA#22V150 and Ford recall #22S11. This truck was manufactured at the Ford Kansas City Assembly plant, the exact same plant that is involved in this recall. However because my truck is not the engine type covered un the recall, my repairs were not covered, even though it is the identical problem performed at the exact same plant.
While shifting from park to drive or shifting from reverse to drive the vehicle makes a very loud bang pop sound from under or rear of vehicle. Dealership claims can't reproduce or it is normal which how would they know if they can't reproduce.
Condensation from evaporator drain is leaking into cab, which has created mold, exposing myself and any passengers riding in my vehicle including my kids. Ford issued TSB 19-2345 to fix this issue but it does not work and they are not willing to replace the molded carpet under a field service action. This is a known design flaw that should be fixed as soon as possible to prevent mold growth. If mold is found, carpet should be replaced immediately due to the health hazards associated with mold in an enclosed vehicle. Ford should be held liable to fix these issues without any charge to the customer.
There is a noticeable lag in the infotainment system whenever an input from the steering wheel is changed or the screen is touched. The navigation screen shows "no gps" and the maps stop working frequently. There are times the touch screen is black and completely unresponsive. The bluetooth connection with my phone connects and disconnects constantly also. The usb ports directly beneath the radio frequently don't work either. Safety is effected because of increased time looking away from the road trying to answer calls or get directions through the navigation system. The problem has not been inspected because I haven't been to the dealer since this first started happening. There were no warning lamps. The only indicators were that the bluetooth connection for my phone was dropped and the "no gps" was displayed on the maps. This first appeared about 3 months ago.
The contact owns a 2018 Ford F-150. The contact stated that the Back Over Prevention camera image was distorted after shifting into reverse(R). The contact was unable to rely on the camera image while reversing. The contact had not taken the vehicle to a local dealer or independent mechanic. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The manufacturer was informed of the failure. The contact researched online and related the failure to NHTSA Campaign Number: 22V644000 (Back Over Prevention). The failure mileage was approximately 75,000.
My vehicle has a cam phaser failure as simular to other Ford F150s that have been recalled for the same issue, however my Vin does not fall under the same issue for the cam phaser recall. There must of been some vins that were missed by the recall and mine is one of them.
The contact owns a 2018 Ford F-150. The contact stated that when the vehicle started, there was an abnormal rattling sound coming from the vehicle. The vehicle was taken to the dealer where it was diagnosed with failed cam phasers. The contact was informed that the cam phasers needed to be replaced. The vehicle was repaired. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure but provided no assistance. The contact was informed that an Extended Warranty for a similar failure on the vehicle had expired. The contact was advised to contact the NHTSA Hotline to report the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 60,000.
Back window shattered without any impact. The truck was parked in my garage. I started the truck, put it in reverse, and let my foot off the brake. As soon as I started moving I heard a loud bang and the back window was shattered. Not cracked but shattered into little pieces. If this would have happened when I was on a highway no telling what could have happened. A dealer said it was out of warranty and they don't do glass so they would farm it out to someone else and I would have to pay for it. I told them no thanks and had it replaced by someone of my choosing. Cost was less than my deductible so I payed for it out of pocket. The truck was parked in my garage and the temperature was in the low 80's at the time. I have no idea what caused the window to shatter like it did. The whole window shattered completely into little pieces.
The issue I am complaining about is Customer Satisfaction Program #21N03. For some reason Ford did not issue a recall on this issue even though they know they have an issue with the cam phasers and this problem is very widespread. The cam phasers on my vehicle failed and had to be replaced and they forced me to pay for a portion of this change even though they knew it was a manufacturing defect and even though they are using a "redesigned" version of the cam phasers in the replacement. This SHOULD BE A RECALL and not a "Customer Satisfaction Program" and the full price of the repair should be covered by the Ford Motor Company. They should have to reimburse me for the full cost of this repair since this is a widespread issue with many 3.5L Ecoboost Engines.
The contact owns a 2018 Ford F-150. The contact stated that the vehicle failed to start. The contact was able to jumpstart the vehicle. There was no warning light illuminated. The vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic where it was diagnosed that the brake controller was defective and was draining the battery. The independent mechanic diagnosed that the brake controller needed to be replaced. The part was replaced. The vehicle was then taken the local dealer where the brake controller was reprogrammed; however, the failure persisted. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the failure and referred the contact to the NHTSA hotline. The failure mileage was approximately 41,000.
The motor has oil consumption issue. Have been to dealership since right after purchased this. Has been to dealership multiple times for oil issue. Everything has been documented since day 1. Oil dipstick always reading low. This issue has been confirmed from a ford dealership. The dealership has everything loaded into the database
Brake fluid was leaking internally into the booster. This caused a low level brake fluid alarm with an immediate soft pedal resulting a significant delay in braking response. Ford has issued a recall for this specific master cylinder leak. However, my vehicle shows no recalls.
I put the truck in park and left it idle with the air conditioning on for a passenger got out to go do something for a few minutes and the truck just started have flames come out of it from the middle of the truck until the truck completely burned the fire started with the truck running and idling and the the truck was parked on gravel
