Noticed when the vehicle was already in motion and accelerating to get up to the street speed the truck all of a sudden starts shaking in the back. The shaking was not only in the back but in the front also. I called Ford and they stated there was nothing wrong with it. If that-??s the case the explain why the back end and front end of the truck started shaking.
While driving down interstate Friday, July 28, at approximately 6:15PM in North Augusta, SC, I heard a loud noise and could not identify what had happened. It was raining so I did not notice that the fixed portion of the panoramic sunroof over the back seat was shattered. I did not think to even look back there closely. The next morning I got into vehicle to find glass in back seat and water all over floor and seat in back. The whole panel had shattered.
Injury caused when power tailgate failed to slowly lower upon release. Upon release, the tailgate fell open instead of slowly opening as normal (it is a power tailgate). The force of the falling tailgate twisted my wrist and the tailgate hit my arm as I was unprepared for the tailgate to fail and quickly fall. The tailgate operated normally immediately after this incident.
After opening hood (front trunk) electronically, the hood will not close after pushing electrical actuation button. The hood sometimes only opens partially after pushing the button on the front edge of the grill. The hood can be difficult to latch after malfunction of the electronic open/close mechanism. The emergency exit button is likely affected by the failure to open after pushing the button. It might be possible to be trapped in the front trunk or to have to hood open while driving.
Multiple times while driving, the tailgate has come open, allowing cargo to fall out onto the roadway. There is no notification to the driver that the tailgate has been opened or that it remains unsecured. The problem has been recognized in other F-150s but I believe it is more widespread. I am unsure what causes the tailgate to open but it has happened multiple times in both city and freeway driving.

The tailgate opens without warning and no warning is given when it opens. The tailgate opens without warning while driving, parked and not running. This has opened on me several time causing numerous safety issues to include contents of my bed falling out on the roadway while driving. The tailgate has opened as my young daughter was walking by and it nearly striking her in the head. As I left the store today when I returned to my vehicle the tailgate was down and had opened while I was not in or near the vehicle. I contacted the dealership where the vehicle was purchased and was told that there is no recall or fix for the issue at this time. I was told they are aware of the issue but could not fix it. There are no lights, sounds or warnings to when the tailgate will open.
