On 8/26/22 I smelled gas after parking 2020 F150 with ~ 33,000 miles. I had filled the tank the previous day ( <20 miles driven since that time). I was in a marina parking lot at that point and dismissed the smell as perhaps someone spilling some fuel from a portable gas tank. Upon arriving home I again smelled a strong odor of gas and noted my fuel gauge registered 3/4 of a tank ( despite driving < 30 miles since refueling). A very brisk gas leak was evident under pressure from a fuel hose fitting. The high pressure stream abated with turning off the engine ( but a slow fuel leak was still notable.) The vehicle was towed to Ravenel Ford in Ravenel, S.C. awaiting inspection/parts. No warning lights. I did note the engine hesitated to start (which it never had done prior) before driving back home from the marina. I do not off-road with the truck and have not scraped any obstacles with the truck.

At approximately 9700 miles my truck has started malfuctioning and causing a safety risk. On takeoff the truck feels powerless until approximately 3 seconds after pressing the gas pedal. While crossing an intersection, I hit the gas which moved my truck forward very slowly in front of on-coming traffic but took approximately 3 seconds to start moving at the rate of speed a vehicle normally should. I could have been T-boned from this. The main issue I have noticed is while driving between 20 and 40 mph and giving enough gas to maintain speed, the truck starts jolting back and forth until I either let my foot off the gas or floor it. It also makes a clunking noise in the rear end while this happens. I called Ford and scheduled an appointment which was 4 weeks out and they just told me to "Take it easy driving it, it will be fine." This is not a once in a while issue, this happens every single time I drive my truck and does not go away no matter how long I'm driving it for.

While I was driving through a parking lot, and turning slightly left, the engine shut off completely and displayed "auto startstop shift to P, then restart engine" on the dash display. Fortunately, I was not trying to turn and cross traffic on a highway which could have resulted in a catastrophic T-bone collision. The auto start/stop function appears to be faulty and needs to be fixed/recalled before someone is seriously injured or killed. From researching online forums, the issue appears to be widespread and across multiple model years.

Vehicle in motion pulled up to a stop light (with start/stop disabled via the button) the light turned green before coming to a complete stop but the truck shut off. Then I was greeted with a window that displayed "auto start unavailable shift to P to restart". I put the truck in park, restarted it, and it drove fine after that.
