4.5 months and 5k miles.

So far it's been good, the only problems are:
- Air dam catching
- Exhaust and driveline rust
- False alarms, fixed by module software update

4.5 months and 5k miles.

Taking mine in today (Now 11,406 miles) for 10k service - minus the oil change I did myself - and my "laundry list:"

Transmission:

Hard shifting both up and down, in all gears between 3rd and 8th after transmission has warmed up. Most noticeable while cruise control set and climbing hills, etc.

System messages:

Lane Centering shuts off randomly with no warning. Lane-Keeping System stays on. When attempting to turn it back on, the message “Lane Centering Assist Not Available” is displayed. Truck must be restarted to reactivate Lane Centering again. Occurring more and more frequently.

When Lane Centering does work it does not center the truck in the lane but rather hugs the passenger side much more closely than the driver side.

"Lane-Keeping System On" message randomly comes up when system is already active.

“Keep Hands on Steering Wheel (Amber)” message comes up even when actively steering.

“Keep Hands on Steering Wheel (Red)” message occasionally comes up even when the amber message has not been displayed.

"Resume Control" message randomly displays with no other prior messages having been displayed.

"Reverse Brake Assist Not Available" message randomly appears when in reverse.

Pre-collision warning popping up randomly even when there is nothing in front of the truck.

Electronics:

Personalized settings reset randomly - clock style, radio presets, vehicle feature settings, seat/mirror/steering wheel positions, etc.

Velocity of air from air conditioner randomly increases for about 1 min, then drops back down again when fan is in manual mode.

Sirius/XM radio issues: Random dramatic and brief volume increases (not related to speed compensation) AND channel skipping (sounds like a CD skipping on a scratch) across all channels after about an hour of playback AND random loss of audio, although image and titles still load.

Body/Trim:

Rear sliding window rattles with radio bass when completely closed, rattle stops once the window is opened even the smallest amount. Also, the window leaks when being washed (low pressure hose) as water spots appear on the inside of the rear window. Window does not seem to seat properly when closed.

Drivers side front fender emblem (F150 Lariat trim) has loose sound deadening insulation stuck to the inside of it.

Rear doors are not aligned the same as the front doors - must slam doors to make sure they are closed/deactivate door warning, and you can clearly see that they are not hung/aligned correctly. Rear door seals are also noisy (I assume this is likely due to misalignment)

Drivers side mirror motor slowing down. Occasionally stops mid fold.

Drivers side headlight beam is aimed quite a bit lower than passenger side.

Drivers side window does not roll down as far as passenger side. Once down, can be manually pushed down the rest of the way.

Moonroof outer seal (above drivers side rear door) folded in on itself.

1 month, 3k. Reverse brake assist pissed me off to no end so I flashed it completely out with Forscan, besides that I have nothing but great things to say about this truck. No issues and a huge improvement over the last generation.

Do you have more pictures of this set up? I was just looking at it Hostiles online.

Picked up mine the first week of February. She's at 7,200 miles (1,000 of those were put on in the last 24hrs lol).

Only real concern thus far is the god-forsaken "my view" reset. Obviously minor, but it frustrates the hell out of me increasingly more each week without any hopes for a fix on the horizon.

14 days, 854 miles, 2.7, mostly normal mode, 87 octane. This picture was today when Biskit, the yellow lab, and I got back from 120 mile trip for a fish sandwich. About half of the 400 miles was highway (65-70), the rest was country road and small town miles. More than my normal miles for 2 weeks, but Biskit really, really, really wants to get the pontoon to the lake! I told her hopefully next week..

One month ownership. Just completed a 2,000 mile round trip to CB, CO. Powerboost… no issues. Roughly 3,500 total mileage. 20.5 avg mpg on the way up, mix of 65-80mph. 21.5 mpg on the way down. Loaded up pretty good. Couple MTBs on the back. Truck has exceeded expectations.
