| Description of the problem | We bought our 2013 f150 xlt 4x4 v6 flex fuel at denham ford in wetaskiwin alberta. We traveled across country to ontario. We have continued to drive it. Approximately 9000 kms for mileage our truck has steadily lost acceleration power. Going up burlington skyway and garden city skyway (100 km/h major highway) truck struggle to maintain 60 km/h uphill with pedal to the floor! Had instrumental panel problems improper display of amount of gas or distance to e. Driveshaft constantly clunking and transmission slippage. Ford refused to replace after towing of problems and constant call ins to customer service. Took to local dealer and 7-8 technicians stood round scratching head replaced fuel pump did not make a difference. Ford ask for payment 558. 08 we not have funds as all of our money going into gas to repair truck and false reading on panel and ford refused to help us. We felt used and scared of being rear ended by a semi was not safe. Did diagnostic no codes. Beyond code problem. First known problem in north america... Huge lemon. |
