“Today I was getting ready to blow some snow out of my driveway and had to move my truck. It's normally parked at a slight incline where putting it in park is usually sufficient and have never needed to use a parking brake. When I re-parked the truck, I had to put it in 4WD to get up in the driveway because we had a lot of wet slushy snow. So after I get it parked, I put it back in 2WD, put it in park, and turn off the ignition. I then got out of the truck and started over to the snow blower to get back to work. …”
NHTSA complaint #11494747, filed 2022-11“I see there is a software recall update on trailer brake controller but not sure if that is the issue. The manual squeeze brakes did not work first time 5th wheel hooked up. The 7 pin trailer clip goes into a 5 pin harness and a 2 pin harness. The 2 pin is the brake control for the trailer. I traced the wiring to the next connector.. When the wiring was unplugged and replugged in the connection and braking system worked. It is located on driver side next to spare tire. The error was happening on both the truck bed 7 pin connector and hitch connector. So issue had to be in line. …”
NHTSA complaint #11459218, filed 2022-04“Trailer brake control module shorts out intermittently causing trailer brakes to not work. This causes the vehicle and trailer to not be able to stop on time in a short distance. Dealer has confirmed that this is the issue. Error message is “trailer wiring fault” and “trailer disconnected” while driving with trailer attached.”
NHTSA complaint #11533321, filed 2023-07“Brake controller error. Towing a small 6500lb trailer the ford is only intermittently sending signal to the camper brakes. Error trailer brake fault . Makes stopping at times take a longer distance. Is a potential safety concern and definitely causes wear on the ford itself. Unfortunately my Ford wasn't covered by a previous recall for this known issue even though it was made in August of 2021.”
NHTSA complaint #11512430, filed 2023-03“The contact owns a 2022 Ford F-350 SD. The contact stated that while hauling a trailer, the brakes failed to operate as needed. The vehicle was taken to the local dealer, who updated and replaced the Auxiliary Power Interface Module (APIM) several times. The vehicle was repaired, but the failure recurred. Additionally, the radio turned on without driver interaction. The contact stated that the Forward Collision Avoidance system and the mirrors were turning on and off, the crash alert was engaged, and the brake was applied without driver input. The steering wheel was vibrating. …”
