“Driving on the highway for an hour the speed control kept switching from the speed limit to 20 mph and rapidly decelerating my vehicle. I would reset the speed then everything would repeat, it started 2 weeks ago with one instance. It happened 8ish times between Idaho falls Idaho and Pocatello Idaho”

NHTSA complaint #11623309, filed 2024-11

“The electrical components in my dashboard and computer system are shutting off while I am driving. “Charging System Service Soon” alert pops up but I have had my battery checked multiple times. The glitches are inconsistent and can happen 1-20 times during a 30 minute drive. When it glitches, I can not see my speedometer or anything else on my dash. It occasionally turns off my slippery mode, it almost stalled once and occasionally my steering wheel locks up. …”

“My vehicle started with not accelerating and bogging down when going after a stop, it shakes/jerks from 1-3 gear. The rpm’s jump all over the place and at times it will be very low speed, jerking when trying to shift. I haven’t even had the car two years, I have two children and this happened at an intersection and scared us all. It had happened so many times I’m scared to drive it. I took it to a ford dealership, they were able to recreate the issue and said it may be the transmission. There are now warning lights on or anything indicating what the issue is. …”

“While parking in a parking lot of a local store I pulled into a spot and stopped about 2 feet from a bumper post. I removed my foot from the brake pedal to pull closer to the post. The car began to idle forward. When I was as close to the post as I intended I stepped on the brake. The car continued to idle forward until I hit the post causing very minor damage to the hood of my car. After hitting the post I was stopped. I put the car in reverse and took my foot off the brake. The vehicle did not moved so i touched the gas intending to back up a foot or so. The car picked up speed. …”

“Speed sign recognition reads wrong speed. Reads 45 mph when speed limit is actually 70mph. Automatically slows down to 45 mph. Also drops to 25mph in 35 mph zone. Had it checked at dealer and they say all settings normal. Checked for Mfg updates and it says all up to date. Happens several times a week.”
