I have a 2021 f150 platinum. I have owned 20+ vehicles and I have never had as many issues like the 2021! 🤬 My a/c was doing the same thing. And it would flip sides one side cooled and the other didn’t. It happened while getting my first service. The “dealer” blamed it on the cabin air filter. Wtf?! That’s not the issue. My screen also goes out. The “dealer” saw it and blamed it on my phone. I have an iPhone 12! 🤬 My fat left a/c vent and my fat right a/c vent both broke a week apart. “Dealer” said it can’t replace it because it’s not mechanical 🤬 When I fuel up, the distance to empty or fuel range varies from 320miles to empty / 530 miles to empty!! “Dealer” said that’s regular depending on how the vehicle is driven! Bullshit! 🤬 200+miles is a huge difference! I have a bunch of other issues and more problems keep popping up. The “dealer” replaced the a-pin numerous times and then said the radio needed ford updates. My truck sat over 90 days at the dealer in 2021 I made a case with Ford, I ordered a new 22 f150 back in December 2021. It’s been 7 months. Still no build date! 🤬 Out of all my vehicles, this one has been the worse, and bad dealer service and communication with solving real issues that they passed the blame onto something else instead of listening to the customer that the truck is the issue. Oh! They blamed me for not replacing the caving air filter and that’s why the ac has problems. It’s been changed twice under 25k miles. And my a/c is starting to smell like a wet dog. Again. “Dealer” said they will look into it. Truck has been sitting there since Tuesday and they can’t look at it until this Friday. 🤬 Now no other dealer will look at my truck because there is an open ford case on it. 🤦🏻♂️🤬. So I’m stuck using the dealer that I’m super unsatisfied with until I can get a new truck. 🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬 The 2021 has been a nightmare and I see I’m not the only one with similar issues. Other issues, back seats were coming unstitched, dealer wouldn’t fix so I found a nice seat shop that fixed it for free!! 4 recalls and they don’t know if they have the parts to fix. Front Passenger door has to be slammed to close correctly. Dealer said my passengers are closing it improperly. 🤬🤬 Back driver side door doesn’t open properly. They checked it 3 times and still not resolved. When radio was first having issues, “dealer” technician wrote on service paper, “customer needs to read owner manual” cause they said it was user error🤬🤬🤬. CarPlay still has plenty issues, maps don’t work. Screen doesn’t come on, navigation doesn’t work, Bluetooth doesn’t work properly. All these extra SAFETY OPTIONS DONT WORK PROPERLY!!! Sorry! For anyone looking to buy… stay away from the 21’s! Especially used 21’s! They will have plenty issues.
Thank you!! I was literally just looking at a used 2021 XLT Sport with under 8,000 miles. Good price too. Then some red flags. Owner had it brand new for 10 months. Two recalls (not fixed), plus two other issues that are called "courtesy notifications" for issues (like tailgate automatically opening). That's enough to scare me away (sadly). I miss having a F150, but too many warning signs.
@@nocarbsnation tailgate automatically opening? Wow! That’s a new one!! Lol! I’m still having issues with my truck. I ordered a new 2022 in December of 2021. We’re going into the 3rd quarter of the year and it still hasn’t been built! 😡 if they offer me a 2023 I’ll take it, I’m not taking one that’s a year old when I bought mine at the beginning of 21.
your average dealer is no different then calling in some random tech support line- total hit or miss if you get someone who has any idea what they're talking about or actually give a shit about fixing your problem
@@o713 I ordered an '22 F250 end of Nov '21 and it's scheduled for production end of Oct '22 assuming no more delays, lmao. So basically 1 year, or more for an order. Needless to say, I bought a '22 off a lot earlier this year and paid $750 to ship it halfway across the country because I was able to get it for MSRP, which in this market is tough to do. It's nuts that I saved thousands by ordering 1,500 miles away because I couldn't get it anywhere in the northeast US without price gouging.
That totally sucks we have a 21 Lariat powerboost and when we were driving on the freeway when the gauge cluster suddenly turned off and wouldn’t turn back on so we had to pull over and turn the truck off and on back again and when it did turn on everything was reset .This issue has happened 3 times and yes we also have the CarPlay issue and lastly the issue were it switches from electric to gas is annoying how the entire truck shakes.
I’m not bragging at all, my lowly 2017 STX ain’t got a lot of options, no power seat, no smart climate control and after watching this I’m tickled to death. Man I really hope they get her fixed, it is a beautiful truck for sure.?Can’t say I’d be as calm as you, 70+ grand is a lot of money to me🥵 you are a better man than me
If nobody every bought the first model year, there wouldn’t be anyone bringing the issues to the surface to be resolved, not to mention the issue of the manufacturer having some severe financial difficulties as a result of producing hundreds of thousands of vehicles that nobody is buying.
Except Ford likes to redesign vehicles almost annually. Constantly changing part #s, design, etc. It makes it extremely challenging to work on fords for us techs.
It used to be true. The old model of introducing a new model or make over, then over the course of roughly 5ish years they would iron out the issues and then start it all over again. But we are seeing now that the manufacturers are making large changes year to year now. Parts are changing, supply chain issues, and very significant software changes have become the ghost in the machine. So the old adage you should just wait a few years doesn't really work like it used to. We are seeing it right now that the dealers can't do recalls for specific model years of the same truck run because the software changed and they don't yet have a fix for it. The reliance on software and so much tech that is clearly not tested and ironed out is a problem, and worse yet if it is this hard to maintain when the vehicles are new you can forget these things being supported in 5 or 10 years from now. Your vehicle will become like a Google phone that once they stop the updates you have to get a new phone. Think that sounds far fetched? Just wait. Much of the new co-pilot and auto drive stuff all requires online connectivity and constant updates. People are so enamored with the tech toys they don't think about the long term ramifications. I guess if you are constantly in a new vehicle and willing to stay on the little wheel in a cage then it is all fine. Anyone who keeps vehicles and later needs any sort of support, parts etc is in for a real treat. They can't support this stuff now while it is new.
I just bought a power boost 6 weeks ago. Always had pickups and this has to be the best driving truck I’ve ever had . Continue to document the problems and I am crossing my fingers with mine . Good Luck
I feel your pain. I’m in the same boat with my 2021 Ram having electrical issues. I splurged and got a loaded Laramie with all the bells and whistles and I have been having random electrical issues that the dealer hasn’t been able to fix after 5 visits and over 120 days at the dealership. I’m in the process of filing for lemon law since Ram doesn’t want to offer buy back and I’m tired of paying for a truck I can’t use.
Really appreciate your honest ownership experience. My best friend is in communication with Ford on a buy back of his 2021 Lariat Sport Powerboost because of several no-start instances, A-PIN, and multiple communications failures. It sucks because he absolutely loves the truck and like yourself, was one of the last to get a "deal". Ford's actually being good about it and offering to help with his replacement. He's thinking a loaded Tremor now because the Powerboost has scared him too bad.
Mine is being bought back right now. They are saying they will reimburse my loan and give me my down payment. We will see 21 lariat. I built it on Fords website and got to spec it myself. Dream truck gone lol
By the time you get a tremor loaded up it is a similar price to the raptor. Atleast here in ontario Canada it is. The Raptor is a much better deal in my opinion. Thats why I ordered a raptor, 4 to 6 months for build time .

I understand your frustration. Stuff that works good on this truck is the stuff you get with a base model but when you drop the big bucks on all those expensive bells and whistles you really want it to be flawless. I really want the Lariat power boost but I’m afraid of spending that kind of money on a vehicle I wouldn’t be able to trust

I watch all your video reviews Dan and you have some good content and an excellent presentation style. That sucks big time what you have been through with this truck. I wish you luck in getting these issues fixed fast so that you can begin enjoying this truck after spending all those dollars. I sense there's a really happy Powerboost owner in you and just under the surface, waiting to emerge if only these damn problems would just get resolved. Nothing I've heard you report on, in any of your videos, would prompt me to cancel my Powerboost order. I've got some associates and a friend who own Powerboosts and they've had great luck with theirs and love them. But that doesn't mean to say you're not having problems, because obviously you are! Good luck and I look forward to better days ahead with the Powerboost and seeing those future videos.
Thanks I really appreciate the kind words and I also agree I TRULY want to love this truck. I think I am going to get on with some other positive content around this truck and platform as I had originally intended and remain optimistic that the issues will be resolved through hardware service and software updates. I really want to love this truck but its been a rough 5 months so far.

What’s the word on your Powerboost? What issues have yo faced with your purchase? Did you get the hybrid? I wanted to love my truck and I made sure I looked and got one that was everything I needed (and wanted extras) like the generator built in as the electricity goes out often here in the boonies. Not even cell service, hard phone lone or cable, here so I use starlink for everything. Got this truck to use the ATT Phone and WiFi, but it doesn’t even work out here so I had to cancel that.
@@OneOfTheGoodGirls I ordered our 2022 Lariat 502A Powerboost on Nov. 12/21 and it arrived at the dealership on May 10/22. I paid MSRP and got a fantastic trade on my 2018 F150 Ecoboost. We're loving the truck, it now has 28,500 kms on it and have not had one single issue with it. It's been back for a couple recalls, the most recent one was to replace the windshield wiper motor. They dealership did it while it was in gettting a free oil change and they gave me a courtesy car to use. Any recall I've had is minor stuff and it's painless. I just checked the fuel mileage meter and I'm currently getting 9.5L/100 kms (29.7 Imp mpg). The truck is the best of both worlds; you can drive it like you stole it or hypermile with it. We tow our 6000 lb RV and typically get about 18 L/100 kms (15.6 Imp mpg)..I highly recommend it. I wish Ford would be a plug in version of this truck.
I have this truck. A year in and it’s amazing. I live in Canada. In the winter, it’s pretty great on gas all this considered. But in the summer, it’s amazing. It’s advertised as 9.8 city and 9.7 hwy mpl. Tonight I had 7.7! It’s just getting better I feel. A year in and everything is working better

Just bought my power boost F150 lariat in September. I love this truck it hasn’t given me any trouble it’s scoots and really has given me a leadfoot. I’ve only got 4500 miles on it now though so I hope things go right. I can’t afford to spend $70,000 on a truck again. Retiring in January so I have to be careful of what I do with my money. Love your channel I’ll be checking in once in a while. Stay safe merry Christmas God bless.
I feel so badly that you are having so many issues. You were waiting for your truck around the same time we were waiting for ours and we watched all your videos regarding this truck because we were so excited about getting it. Knock on wood, we have been very lucky thus far, with no issues. In addition, the generator has been absolutely wonderful for us while dry camping. I hope it all works out for you, as I couldn’t agree more that the cabin ride of this truck is absolutely amazing!
Sorry to hear of the problems. I'm on at 2300 miles on my 2021 PB with 502A trim and I have yet to find a problem with it. I hope they work with you on it and resolve it.
I shared this with Dan not long ago. I purchased a Platinum Powerboost 10-01-21, and had my driver’s seat stop working and my transmission go out, within 4 days. Ford kept my truck for 22 days replacing my transmission on a BRAND NEW truck. I’m still trying to get my max recline fixed after a half job was done on my seat. I’m living and learning. 🤷🏾♂️
@@randolphfj2 unfortunately we're seeing a lot of bad new parts. Best to buy a new model that's the previous year. See if the 2020 models are holding up. Or buy certified pre-owned. Let someone else take that large depreciation hit. Wife could have bought a 20221 Camry, but she saved a ton of money buying a brand new 2020 and they're identical
I feel the same way you are feeling with my 2021 f-150 limited. My auto steering seems to pull so hard that I have to turn it off. The radio and seat needs to be reset every time I drive it. Starting to wish I would have kept my 2019 f-350 power stroke.
Sorry to hear about your continuing problems. I've got a 2021 powerboost that I purchased early February. Absolutely love the truck, and with over 9k on it have no issues. I see where people have problems and it spooks me, cause "Murphy " sits on my shoulder. Hope you can get it worked out because the trucks really are a joy to drive. Thing is s whole different league from my F150 with the coyote, and the 7.2kw generator is just icing.
Thanks so much for your sharing.. I have f150 2021 limited. My screen started turning off a week ago. I am about the call the dealer. Now I'm wandering if replacing the whole module is the right thing to do.
I have had the same issues with my truck since the first week I’ve had it. Only 2-3 times since but still. Even with the Ac completely on, the heater core or something gets stuck wide open. Gets super hot. Always had to stop and shut the truck off and turn it back on.
Welcome to the club. Wish you didn’t have to learn this lesson the hard way. While most vehicles will be fine the ones that have problems like yours and mine really make owning a new vehicle a pain. Ford and the dealer got their $$, perfect in every way, you got the vehicle, imperfect in many ways. Wish I had my 2012 Silverado WT with the V6, crank windows, manual door locks, lever style 4x4 engagement and less electronics back. Not all is bad with the F150 though. Most comfortable, quiet and fuel efficient truck I’ve ever owned. 24mpg on one leg of a 4200 mile trip to and from Colorado. Solid 19-21 local driving before the weather turned cold here in Vt all on a 5.0 non turbo’ed V8. We could have a separate discussion on turbos but the tekkies don’t wanna hear it!
Yep been there done that. Bought a brand new 2012 F-150 FX4 with nothing but problems. Always at the dealership to get things fixed. They're beautiful trucks but unfortunately it was my first experience with Ford and my last. Now I drive a 2016 Tundra bought new as well and it's been amazingly reliable!!!
Love your patience and views. I sure feel for ya. You know I got a 2019 Ram Longhorn. Fully loaded with all the goodies. Yes in the back of my mind is all these electronics and how will it hold up. In my winter climate it gets stupid cold. -35 Celsius at times. That can play havoc. But so far no issues at all so far. Hope it works out for you.
I am very happy to hear that. I hope mine is awesome one day too because honestly it is an amazing truck on the road, if only they can get all of these gadgets they sold me working right.
I hope you get everything running correctly. I pick up my F150 Limited powerboost on 31 December. We have a 2014 Ford Fusion (no longer being manufacturing) Titanium Hybrid. We purchased an extended warranty. The transmission just went out and because of the extended warranty, it is no cost to us. Looking forward to hearing you tell us that it is working as expected.
Not sure if its the same issue, but I had a bad temp sensor on the driver side in my 2018 Mustang that would sometimes cause the driver's side vents to blow either way too hot, or way too cold. Sometimes it would work, sometimes it would blow hot ass air when it was summer outside (set to 70F, Auto). That took a bit of time to figure out, but once it was replaced everything worked just fine.
This actually happened to me where the AC in the passenger side was really hot! But I restarted the truck and it never happened again. Honestly man I feel like you should lemon law the truck with the constant issues
Man I feel for you. It super unfortunate all these problems are happening to you. I got my Lariat around the same time you did and the only issue I've had was needed to take the truck in to have the transmission relearned the shifting pattern. The Powerboost shifted extremely hard initially, but since then all is good. Sorry all this BS is happening to you considering how much you've paid for this thing. Might be time to pull the plug on it and move on.
Wishing you a merry Christmas and a healthy and safe new year, thank you for all the wonderful videos you provide for us. Blessings to all peace on earth, Amen
This socks bro!! I have a 2021 Lariat Powerboost 502A and I love this truck. 3rd F150 in 5 years(16' Lariat, 19' Lariat and now the 21'). I hope you get the issues cleared up and resolved.
I got my powerboost a few weeks ago. Looks like Ford did a mid cycle refresh after June. Truck is now available with the CCD suspension and a few other goodies. I’m hoping the small refresh helps to fix some of these early gremlins.
@@Greentree57 call it whatever you want. But Ford took the supply chain delays to add additional options to their trucks that weren’t previously available in trucks that were produced earlier in the same model year.
This is what I would do when my dual zone would go bonkers on my 2009 Flex Limited. Lower the temp all the way to Low, then raise the temp all the way to HI. That would sync it for a couple weeks. The HVAC worked every time as it should for a few months there after. It didn't matter if the "sync" was set or not.
I'm sorry you are having so many issues and I hope they get resolved! I've been very lucky with my '21 Lariat but I know many have been having issues. Strong lemon laws would solve these issues. If manufacturers knew they'd be obligated to replace lemon vehicles, QA would improve greatly!
I totally agree, its a hot mess. Hopefully some basic module / component swaps solve some issues for me and this truck ends up being enjoyable. Ultimately it is by far the best driving truck I have ever owned. Its just a nightmare with everything else.
I have a GMC Sierra that has had these types of problems. Not often, but there have been some like the hot air coming out of one side and not the other. The most significant problem was the electronic parking break NOT releasing which is a show stopper since there is no mechanical release or any other way to release the brakes. I have found that the truck is a lot like my home computer such that I have to reboot occasionally. Sometimes I have to pull the plug for a full reboot and the truck is like this --- the battery has to be disconnected and reconnected to clear a problem. I now carry a small ratchet in the truck that fits the battery cable connection. So far this has always cleared a screwy electronic problem and I have to do this just two or three times a year.
Wow, hope you get it all sorted out. I have a Limited Powerboost and I love it. I had a dead gas pedal issue where the engine would go to sleep for 2 or 3 seconds when operating at low speeds like turning at an intersection or turning out into traffic which scared me to death. They have since sorted that issue. Now my auto crash sensor goes off when there's no cars directly in front of me. These are my only issues thus far. I'm warrantied up for 120k miles so not too worried, but if this truck doesn't last me, I'd consider leaving the brand. The new Tundra lacks mostly all of the feel good features and attention to detail of the Ford at these trim levels, but I think that's where I'll head next. I left GM for good over problems with my Sierra.
I got the extended plan specifically because I was fearful of the electric components dying out out after the warranty ended. Hope you can get this fixed
Did you ever call Ford Customer Service? I have heard on other channels that they can print off your Ford Pass error codes. Maybe they can help you out. I have had my Powerboost for a few weeks now. No issues so far. “Knock on wood”. I hope you get some resolution soon. Thanks for making these videos.
Sorry you been having issues, my 21 power boost lariat been doing good. Only issues I seen is the wireless connection for Android auto some times disconnects. Then reconnects on its own in a few seconds.
Dan I think that I one of the lucky one I had no issues so far with my limited powerboost so far Well Dan the one thing if you can say that came out of this is you got a lot of new content for your channel but I hope that everything gets fixed love the channel
I am happy to hear that you arent having any issues, hope to be there myself one day. Trust me, this was NOT the content I was hoping to be making on this truck, not in the slightest. This is WAY too much money to spend on a truck for some RUclips content.
What a bummer, I got my Lariat Powerboost right around the time you got yours (13k Miles on mine). Live in Northern MN in the freezing cold and for the most part mine has been flawless. The only time I have issues is when Ice and snow build up on the sensors but once it gets warmed up in the garage it goes back to normal. Carplay issues are the same on mine. It amazes me that Apple and Google play are not very dependable but I have just learned to always plug the phone in and forget it. But I am frustrated because it struggles to connect to the truck wifi while using carplay. But I agree with you this thing is the most amazing truck I have ever driven but the electrical issues are concerning I won't lie. I hope mine will last for many years to come!
Sucks man. Hope they fix it for you. Definitely keep records and track of your service visits. I have a 2013 Screw. It's been a good truck. It has its quirks as well.
Thanks for the video, I have the same truck and now have 72k miles on it, yes I drive a lot. I have the exact same problems you had on your truck. The dealer told me it was a sensor that caused the heating/cooling fault. It’s been fine since they replaced it, however, they are now telling me I have to pay $2300 to replace the entire exhaust system as it has created something to overheat? No idea yet, but still investigating it. It’s not covered under my extended warranty as Ford is calling “maintenance” and it also does not involve any electrical components. Now Today I received a new fault code “Power Reduced to Lower Engine Temperature” and the gauge is stating that the temp is normal, It’s in limp mode now. The fun never stops. Lastly, for anyone who lives in cold weather climates, the dealer informed me that if you wash the powerboost F150 in temperatures less than 32 degrees, you run the risk of the sensors breaking and they will not cover it under warranty! The dealer just told me that’s the price you pay to have the hybrid power boost. The gas mileage is great, but with these issues, it's time to find another vehicle.
It hasnt been fun for sure but there are plenty of people out there with trucks that have been fine so I guess its just a roll of the dice no matter which brand you go with anymore.
My new 2021 ford f150, just like yours, but with black rims, shut down and made a high pitched grinding sound, lost nearly all gas and brakes to get off the road, and all lights and warnings flashed saying every possible component was not working. i sat there with the truck off and barely off the shoulder, cars going by, and the hubby was looking up the number to the closest ford place when after a few mins, the truck stopped beeping and flashing all kinds of failures, and i was able to turn it back on. i drove it to the local dealer who can pull up its history right on their computer, by the vin number. thats kind of cool. but they dont know what caused it so im going to tell them about this ipim?? module that you mentioned. someone else here mentioned that hooking up a trailer caused issues and we noticed that our trailer lights were pulsing just barely, but that was odd. its in the shop as of today so wish us luck. i will post an update if i get one.
Uh.... It's March of 2022? If your a/c broke in June of 2021 how could it be a "dream" ever since? It hasn't even been 10 months?? You probably don't even know if it's fixed yet.
I have a 2022 F150 with eco boost, love the truck drives like a dream. A few times after driving for an hour or so with the a/c on the cab would start to warm up. I can hear the blower motor running on high speed but nothing is coming out of any of the vents. Also at times the with the a/c on the fan speed will by itself speed up to the point it gets to cold in the truck. Its in the dealer right now, they have not been able to find the problem yet.
Hey Dan, maybe someone else has already asked you this, or you knew about it; but have you checked all of your fuses throughout the truck (including the engine compartment) to make sure they're fully seated? Yeah I know what you're thinking, but it's been the solution for a few problems with other folk.

I remember i had dual climate acting up on me in Silverado where driver half would auto change about 45 seconds after engine start to full blast heat even it was set down to cool all the way... luckily the actuator would have easy to access plug and i disconnected it before the 45 seconds would expire and left it entire summer that way, then in winter i reconnected that and it worked just fine as suppose to, assuming some moister in module somewhere dried out and fixed it self
The exact same issues I had with my 2021 explorer xlt..phone charger and info charger, ac stopped working abruptly in August and heated seats not working on driver side and heated steering wheel way to hot after they took six weeks to fix with no rental. Also only 7,500 miles on it.
Will do for sure, I wouldn't tell people NOT to buy a Powerboost at this point because I haven't had any powertrain issues, its all been module related for me at this point. The truck is a dream to drive, if only I could just live with turning off the head unit and HVAC system it would be perfect. I will just cruise around with headphones and layers lol. I do see a day when all of these issues are ironed out for me with hardware swaps and software updates that MAY already be done in newer trucks rolling off the line today.
I feel your pain Dan. I also love the feel and ride of my 2021 F-150 XLT, but the CRAZY APIM Module electrical crap has forced me to pursue Michigan Lemon Law replacement. Ford has agreed to replace my truck with a 2022 truck as two (2) APIM replacements have failed to correct my issues. They are to contact me next week with the formal details. Just curious if you ever tried hooking up a trailer to your truck? That's the thing that would really trigger my electrical failures. Also, my Pro Trailer Assist stuff would never work from day one - part of my trailer tow package that I paid $880.00 for!!
Hi Frank. How difficult was it to get them to replace your truck? I have had mine a few months and have multiple mechanical troubles with less than 8k miles. She's currently in the shop :( I bought her brand spanking new and have tranny issues, light shuddering when lightly accelerating uphill, 4x4 doesn't work, all drive modes disabled, and a horrible grinding noise coming from the engine block. I LOVE this truck! We have 2 that are near identical (his has the extra towing capacity, and we bought them at the same time) and there are ZERO issues with his, so I would assume it's just the bad one off the line. Which we all know does happen. The thing is... I didn't pay all that money for a brand new truck to be failing and rebuilt- I mean, wouldn't that impact the value of the vehicle overall?
@@kimfb1443 Hello Kim, Wow, your truck sounds way worse than mine! The first thing you need to do is take a look at the Lemon Law for your state. If you qualify for replacement under the rules your state has in place, you would then contact Ford and tell them your intention to get a refund or a replacement vehicle under Lemon Law rules. I turned down my initial Ford offer I received on December 23, 2021 that was to to give me back all my money minus mileage. I am leasing and I opted instead for them to make me a new identical (2022) truck with NO changes to my original lease agreement. The only change they can make is to change the VIN number when the new truck is built. Ford is saying that the new truck most likely will be built sometime in February and I'm ok with waiting that long as I mainly need the truck for the boating season. Save all your paperwork and document EVERYTHING relating to your truck problems. Of course, the pandemic and the chip shortage is increasing the wait time for everything so don't expect a quick fix. Good luck!!
@@frankwalker1075 Update: I just spoke to the Ford dealership (they are so kind). There are multiple issues. Firstly, the integrated wheel end on the front passenger side is failing which is why the 4x4 will not engage. Unfortunately, because the truck is so new, the parts are on back order indefinitely. They have sent a request to "Big Ford" engineers, as I like to call them, to request the parts directly from the line. Pending a response on that. Secondly, they were able to recreate the crazy noise and decided that it is something with the transmission and/or some front -end pump as the sound emanates from the center of the engine/tranny linkage area. Here's the kicker... they don't have a transmission tech right now due to the staffing issues seen across the country *cough* letsgobrandon *cough*. I talked with "Big Ford" about this and they are checking my area for a dealership that is capable of dropping the motor and trans in order to do a full diag on this issue. Kicker #2... The dealership it is currently at cannot transport it to wherever it will need to go. And I cannot drive it there either. Sooooo... we shall see. I am not upset, I know there are going to be issues with some ratio of vehicles coming off the line. It happens. Ford has always taken care of me and I understand that while it may be a pain to deal with ESPECIALLY this year - it's not intentional, negligent, or malicious. It just is. I'll try to get the video of the sound uploaded. *FYI* Ford just issued a recall for the underbody insulation issue - the one where it sags a bit and touches the shaft making a ticking noise.
@@kimfb1443 Hey Kim, I don't know what state you are in, but I would pursue the Lemon Law thing with all the problems you are having. In Michigan, the Lemon Law can be used if your vehicle is in the shop for more than thirty (30) days or the dealer has had four (4) tries at fixing the same defect with no luck. My truck hit on both criteria and also had two (2) complete APIM (computer) replacements that failed to fix my electrical problems. Like you, I also bought two new Ford vehicles in 2021 and only one is having major problems. Ford knows I am a loyal customer and they referred me to the Ford RAV (Re Acquired Vehicle) program almost immediately after reviewing my case and I think reviewing my past buying history. I can drive my truck for now as long as I don't attach a trailer to it and I can wait for them to build me a new truck later this winter. You might want to look into the Lemon Law option as your dealer is on record as saying that they cannot fix your issues due to staffing issues and parts shortages You also should look at the NHTSA website as your problems definitely sound safety related to me. Good luck with everything!
Plenty of people on the road with no problems. Maybe its just bad luck of the draw of Ford that this truck went to a modestly successful entry level RUclipsr.
I'm so sorry that you're having all these issues! I was a big fan of you getting a new F150. Hopefully you're getting the kinks worked out now (under warranty) and it provides you many years of trouble free enjoyment!
You hit the nail right on the head. It’s a great truck, however, the electronics are a complete nightmare. Lemon Lawed my ‘21 Lariat and got into a ‘19 Lariat. Bottom line.. I’m happy.
Buy a 2016 like mine. It has an ignition key!! It is simple. I adjust the heating/cooling with my hand. The truck stuff works great. Rides like a dream. I did add a rear sway bar. Something Ford was never interested in. Makes a big difference. Simpler is better. As I learned from your video, the more electronics you have, the more things there are to go wrong.
I have a 2021 F150 Lariat and was really torn between 3.5 Powerboost and 3.5 Ecoboost when I ordered back in Dec 2020. In the end I ordered the 3.5 Ecoboost as the Powerboost adds a lot of complexity and I didn't want to be the first year guinea pig. I have questioned my decision many times, but following your issues makes me feel like I made the right decision at this point in time. I have had a few small quality issues: wind noise from rear view mirrors, rear bench seat not sitting flush between driver and passenger side, grinding noise from steering wheel in cold weather, and front driver tire rubbing inner fender well at fully lock when reversing. My dealer has been great about working through these issues. I am happy that none of them are powertrain issues or electrical issues.
My AC while on road trips will start blowing at a higher speed even though I have it on blower speed 1...was thinking it might just be trying to keep the temperature. Have not found anything on this behavior as of yet. Did a soft reboot for the satellite radio after it started lagging. Either that solved the problem or a system update..
I have had no issues with my truck, I'm loving it. I have had it since September. You need to understand new equipment i had several times with dodge where the a./c wouldn't work on the drivers side or happens. I know it is annoying but it is what it is.
It's a real shame that your truck has had so many issues. I have wanted a new F150 for some time but the tech always psychs me out because you just never know if it will work or not. Some will, some won't. Heck, my parents bought a 2016 pilot brand new and that has had MANY issues, like needing the seats replaced, full injector replacement, now the transmission is making a weird noise and apparently a bearing is shredding. Maybe it's luck? Who knows. Best of luck to you, hopefully you can get it sorted out like magic and it's flawless.
Get one without all the bells and whistles, go for an STX. They have a smaller screen, but besides that, everything else is basically what'd you'd get in a truck for the last 30 years
I am having problems with my brand new 2022 Powerboost. Cold start makes a terrible sound until I drive away. I have had the PCM re programmed as it is a known issue. But now my Hybrid features aren't as great. The engine doesn't turn off as often and my electric bar that I can use before the engine kicks back on is smaller. Also my driver side power window button for auto up doesn't work for the passenger window. I also have a terrible rattling vibration sound at 1500 rpm which happens be right where the truck operates most of the time.
I feel for you. Had my 21 Powerboost XLT 302a since April; 9k mi. My biggest failure was loss of brakes due to "bad programming." During the failure, the system went crazy with warnings for almost every thing but only 2 recorded on fordpass. Now have trans leak so my truck has been parked for over a month now. If wasnt for the issues, I would love this truck.
@@justinl8455 Honestly, I have my concern they won't. It is going in for a third time on 1/20. Last time, they had it for 5 days around Christmas and admited it's leaking but said, I shit you not, that "it's really hard to see in that area" so they couldn't verify the issue. Since they couldn't verify it's a warranty issue, they tried to charge me $125 diagnostic fee. The first time in, at different dealer, they said no leaks until I showed up and pointed to the drip and fluid under it, they were too backlogged to reevaluate it since they completed my appointment in their eyes. It is ironic that I have been sent home driving it with no fix but I have been warned by the service advisor that if there is damage from me driving it with low fluid, that it possibly wouldn't be warrantied since I drove it knowing it is leaking. The stupidity of it is almost funny but sad. Ford customer relations is useless.
@@justinl8455 Hopeful it doesn't come to that as I really like the pro power but if it does, I am sure trade-in would be an option and the 22 Tundra would be a good option.
I have a 2018 base xlt and driven it 30k miles now. My wife and I have driven two trips out west from our state Ohio two consecutive years. With the last time being with the pandemic in full bloom. It was enjoyable and as my wife said it was comfortable. Seats in my screw are good for long trips. I guess I’m saying that I hate you have so many things making your experience a miserable one. But at least you have options. I have had some local dealers wanting me to sell them my truck with a notable profit for myself. I have considered it but I don’t think it would be wise with all the uncertainty of chips and quality issues at this time. And my wife told me she likes the truck and won’t let me Lol. I guess you’ll figure out a solution that would be suitable to you and I hope you get the truck you can be happy with. Good luck!
🙌🏼 OMGosh… I’m so thankful to find this video!!! ⚠️ Short version: SCREW FORD, 🚫DO NOT BUY A FORD VEHICLE AS THEY DO NOT STAND BEHIND THEIR PRODUCT!!! I have your same issues and WAY more, including the firewall falling off @ 4500 miles and they couldn’t replace for 5 months. In March 2021 I bought the 🤬 2021 Lariat Powerboost with 7.5 generator and it the BIGGEST FKN REGRET of any vehicle I’ve ever owned (out of like 30)‼️ Completely loaded with every extra I could get (over $75k plus additional $5900 for a hard tonneau cover, 8 ply tires, High Country nerf bars for steps & ceramic tint on the windows). Recall on windshield as it “pops out” as the seals are bad. Ford wont pay for the ceramic to be put back on. I purchased this as I moved across country out West to a remote area almost 2 hours from the nearest city/stores and 15 miles on a dirt road into the National Forrest. I needed to ENSURE I had a dependable vehicle that I wouldn’t have to worry about breaking on me so far away from a repair shop and as a single lady I wanted an extra layer of safety. Not what I got at all. And so mad with myself as I traded in my Chevy truck & my Tahoe 😢(miss them for sure) on this TOTAL PIECE OF S*!T‼️ Sorry for your issues but glad I’m not the only one‼️ The list is so long on issues with this vehicle that I’m dumbfounded. Short in the Drivers window and the wouldn’t roll up and stay up. 3 feet of snow and below zero weather and NO HEAT 1/2 the time in the winter and summer the AC wouldn’t work properly. Going down the road the screen/ dash goes out while driving. It puts itself in AUTO park randomly. The transmission sounds awful like it has rocks in it intermittently (which I have on video) The fuel range will show I only have around 300 miles when I have just filled up. Radio wont play/ Apple Car play wont recognize my phone on wireless, so I plug it in and it wont recognize I have it plugged in OR charge my phone. The shifter gets stuck some times in Park and wont go into drive AT ALL. I have had to walk home several times while either at the post boxes 4 miles away or on the other 30+ acres from my land as It wouldn’t go into gear. The sensors on the bumpers are intermittent as well, and God forbid they get dusty or muddy because they set off the alarm driving down the road, and it will slam the brakes on…. OR they dont sense when I am close to something to alert me. The rear camera picture turned white like it was smoked ( 5 weeks backordered). Windshield wiper motor inoperable. My first accident EVER, it didn’t alert me I was close to the cement barrier and I bumped it by the headlamp.. 7 months later it is still in the shop as parts are impossible to get. (PS. A headlamp alone is $1850, not including installation). Insurance only paid for 30 days of rental and I have been 6 months without a vehicle!!! The nearest neighbor (who me I dont know) is over a mile away and my nearest family is 1800 miles from me. SO AWFUL. I believe as of now there are, what, 15 plus recalls on this truck…. and that doesn’t address these other issues we speak on here!! There are way more issues than mentioned or recalled. I called FORD Corporate and opened a case and they are “too bad, good luck”. Let me add, I am an Iraq OIF/OEF Veteran, in which I was injured while deployed and medically retired after a a year in the hospital due to my injuries. I moved to the country to help with PTSD and to have peace and FORD has made this a living nightmare for me for 2 years now!!!!!!!!‼️‼️ Sorry for being lengthy, and venting, but the above is a true story.
One of the reasons I didn't get a top of the line 2021 Ford F-150 PB. Purchased a XL without all the bells and whistles. It was still in the shop for idiot lights, but has been perfect since. Knock on wood.
@@craigwilson1284 2021 Ford F-150 XL with the powerboost hybrid. Only two availble within a hundred miles from my home. Wanted the bigger genny. None available in southern new england. Got the 2.4 instead of the 3.6, only thing I settled with. Otherwise, exactly what I was looking for. Without my trailer 24 miles per gallon, with trailer 13.
Landed here on this video after searching for a similar issue. A friend of mine has a '23 Powerboost and just over 6k miles and his truck is throwing all sorts of codes, the display goes in and out, AC actually stopped working, park sensors no longer work, sometimes the truck won't start. Really odd and started out of no where. His dealer appointment isn't until Monday so we will see how it goes.
I am curious how soon did you purchase your truck from the release date ? I am curious of you ended up with a lemon , a friday truck , or a truck that was rushed in production because it just got released?
I am having a problem also in eco mode I have yellow warning icon on left bottom corner showed yellow as before it was green. Have been taken in 2 times no resoultion as of yet.
Same same same on all points. I’m working on a lemon law claim in my powerboost. Came off the delivery truck with a check engine light. Been in the shop 5-6 times in 4 months. Fed up. Too much money for the issues.
@@GearsGadgets emission control system detected a leak in the fuel tank allowing vapors to escape. 4 trips to dealership for that one. Replaced the fuel pump and finally a solenoid in the system that had gone bad( might be fixed). Once that was figured out over the span of 3 months my speakers stopped working and my truck thought it was in Canada when in fact I was in the US. They had my entire dash, both front seats, and center console ripped out troubleshooting. Replaced everything gave me my keys back and said it’s working now but could stop at any moment. The apim is on back order we’ll let you know when it comes in. Drove home my screen shut down just like yours. Loved the truck just like you said but I’m over it. Its very frustrating.
Sorry about your truck. Hope it's gets straightened out cause you have a nice truck. Any word on when ford is supposed to release bluecruise for our 21 f150's? Let me know. Thanks
So, I bought a 2021 Powerboost around Oct 21, and its now May 7th, 22. I have about 8800 miles on it and today, I went to open it up to grab my sunglasses and I was going to drive my Jeep. The weird thing is it didn’t recognize my fob like always. I had to use the manual key to get into it, it was totally lit up with warnings (emergency brake service) in red, I hit ok, and their were many other things lit up. I tried to start it, it just kept throwing up random warning lights. Then the brake was pulsating when i put my foot on it to try to start it and then it was done, as in, completely dead. I cant even get in the back of my truck to get to my tools because i have a back flip on it so its locked tight. I managed to get the battery cables off and then reinstalled, nothing has changed. It’s like it doesn’t even have a battery in it. My head lights are set for auto (never have changed that and dont see a reason to do so). It stays locked in my carport. We have 5 vehicles but this was going to be our long trip vehicle, now I’m nervous as to the reliability of it and watching your channel as well. Dealership will have to drag it out of the carport monday and have no clue what it could be. Never acted like a battery running low, looked more like a computer glitch issue. Thoughts?
Wow bro hope I don’t have to feel your pain we have the same truck same color only difference FX /4 x 4 301 miles in so far coming out of a lariat 2017 which after four years started giving me problems but anyway trucks been great so far good luck with working it out good video
I'm having significant power train issues. I can't accelerate hard. The motor will reduce power and I'll get several warnings on the dash. Then the AC goes hot and I can't use the onboard generator. I have to pull over, shut the truck off, get out, get back in, and then things work again.
I have a 2021 F150 King Ranch PowerBoost with close to 13,000 miles on it. It has been flawless so far and the most enjoyable truck I’ve ever owned; and I’m old.
My mom bought a 2021 Ford F150 and every now and then her center console display fails to boot and she gets just a blue screen. She then shuts off the truck and restarts and that system will boot properly. Is that part of the apim issue that you were talking about?
I have a 2022 Ford F-150 Platinum Powerboost and it has been nothing but a heap of problems. Sunroof had to be replaced twice because of leaks, rear passenger window broke and was stuck down, and now I have a bunch of strange electronic issues. Stereo popped super loud one day at full blast and a bunch of crackling. Trailer brake system fault light keeps coming on. The gas tank open light comes on and off randomly. The notification that child could be left in the back seat is turned on, but I receive continuous notifications to turn it on. My headlights switch turns on or off when exiting the truck for no reason so I can’t place it on one setting. The other day the temperature change control would change the air flow from your face to your feet and the button to push to control that setting would not work. It’s like every day something new happens strange with the truck. I have no clue what is going on and of course you take it to the dealer and they cannot duplicate the issue. I am just so frustrated!!
Well the problems continue. I have a 2022 xlt 302a multiple electrical issues. Like welcome lighting not working ,tailgate switch not working . It's frustrating 😒
I've had the Same Problems with my 2021 Platinum , $73600 truck, I've got 7400 miles on mine, My phone doesn't work., My power Tailgate Doesn't work. This is after my Dealer put a new Apim in it last week. This 21 Truck is so far the most trouble I've ever had on an F150. I've had over 20 trucks too.
Own your trucks twin. Your causing me to really regret buying this truck. My taking delivery of my truck was Dec. 7, 2021. I’m now trying to figure out how to get out from under it without loosing my ass. So far my truck has set inside my shop with less than 500 miles on it. Anyone care to take ownership? I’d sell in a heartbeat. Best riding and handling truck I’ve ever owned and with no troubles as yet, but feeling out at sea without a paddle.
Hope you dont have any of those issues. This truck is AWESOME on the road for sure but some of the electronics really have me wondering if Fords tech ambition was greater than their capability.
I have a new 2022 powerboost f150 Lariat...took delivery 10 days ago...first night the head lights would not turn on. Took it back the next day...the body control module was replaced...still no lights...has anyone heard of a fix for this issue...?
Modern a/C systems on auto usually adjust the temp automatically base on GPS info and sun position. Ie, it should be cooler on the side facing the sun. Turn off auto if you don't want it that way. This shouldn't cause the heat issue though.
My 2021 F150 Powerboost HVAC issues as well. Not as bad, but the recirculate area will not stay ON unless I'm in Max Cool. As soon as I turn the dial to make the air warmer, the Recirculate turns off, and I get the outside air. It might not be a big deal, but I live in the City, and my truck fills up with Exhaust from the other vehicles on the road. Ford said the "HVAC was working as designed." I'm very disappointed with this "feature." I'm sure it's a programming issue, but I want to control my Cabin Air Quality and NOT be overridden by the computer. Keep up the good videos, and I hope you can resolve your issues soon! If anyone has any suggestions to recirculate issues, please let me know! Merry Christmas!
My 2021 lariat PB was just Lemon Law’d. 3 batteries. ECU change. Harnesses switched. New camera system all around. Ford is working on my payout right now thankfully
My powerboost delivered 11/2/21. Ive had several errors w computer issues . Generator ground faults couldn't reset until i got an APIM update done at dealer . Still has trailer brake control error . Ford updates are slow to come to OTA . I have documented it all. Drives great but this computer worries me but im glad Generator doing better as thats why i got this truck
I think that Ford can resolve a lot of the woes through software updates but they do seem pretty slow being the platform has been out for over a year now. Seems there are a lot of issues being reported that are more software than hardware related.
Nothing wrong with wanting the bells and whistles and expecting them to work. It's why I buy a Platinum. It's a truck, but it's my family luxury vehicle. I don't off road, haul, or tow anything. I also agree that you should document document document everything. I plan on the bells and whistles failing so I prepay the bill by getting the extended warranty. I'm betting I'll use it and come out ahead.
First I just wanna say that I really enjoy your channel. Love the drone and awesome camera work. Super sorry to hear about your truck. My 2021 F150 has its quirks too but nothing like this. I had a 2016 F150 Lariat few years ago and it wreaked havoc on me from ONE ground wire in the right rocker box cover. Smh I hated it til it got fixed. Best wishes and hope you can fall in love with your truck again. 🤘
Thanks, I really appreciate that. I really do hope they come up with a solution because this truck really has an amazing ride quality and really solid fit and finish (except electronics)
My 2021 xlt 302a powerboost has 6k miles on it (bought in July) and have absolutely no issues at all with it. Love the ride and feel. So far no electrical issues. Hopefully it stays that way. I bought extended warranty just in case. Hope you get everything figured out!!
Wonder if your screen that’s running hot. Your thermal shows the screen is 91 degrees. Could the air duct be running behind the screen and getting heated right before it comes out. Maybe the screen isn’t cooling correctly or there’s no insulative barrier between the screen and your ducting? Or the blend door module doing to that side is getting stuck intermittently causing it to not blend air correctly causing hot air some times on one side
I have a 2021 f150 platinum. I have owned 20+ vehicles and I have never had as many issues like the 2021! 🤬
My a/c was doing the same thing. And it would flip sides one side cooled and the other didn’t. It happened while getting my first service. The “dealer” blamed it on the cabin air filter. Wtf?! That’s not the issue.
My screen also goes out. The “dealer” saw it and blamed it on my phone. I have an iPhone 12! 🤬
My fat left a/c vent and my fat right a/c vent both broke a week apart. “Dealer” said it can’t replace it because it’s not mechanical 🤬
When I fuel up, the distance to empty or fuel range varies from 320miles to empty / 530 miles to empty!! “Dealer” said that’s regular depending on how the vehicle is driven! Bullshit! 🤬 200+miles is a huge difference! I have a bunch of other issues and more problems keep popping up. The “dealer” replaced the a-pin numerous times and then said the radio needed ford updates. My truck sat over 90 days at the dealer in 2021
I made a case with Ford, I ordered a new 22 f150 back in December 2021. It’s been 7 months. Still no build date! 🤬
Out of all my vehicles, this one has been the worse, and bad dealer service and communication with solving real issues that they passed the blame onto something else instead of listening to the customer that the truck is the issue. Oh! They blamed me for not replacing the caving air filter and that’s why the ac has problems. It’s been changed twice under 25k miles. And my a/c is starting to smell like a wet dog. Again. “Dealer” said they will look into it. Truck has been sitting there since Tuesday and they can’t look at it until this Friday. 🤬
Now no other dealer will look at my truck because there is an open ford case on it. 🤦🏻♂️🤬. So I’m stuck using the dealer that I’m super unsatisfied with until I can get a new truck. 🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬
The 2021 has been a nightmare and I see I’m not the only one with similar issues.
Other issues, back seats were coming unstitched, dealer wouldn’t fix so I found a nice seat shop that fixed it for free!!
4 recalls and they don’t know if they have the parts to fix. Front Passenger door has to be slammed to close correctly. Dealer said my passengers are closing it improperly. 🤬🤬 Back driver side door doesn’t open properly. They checked it 3 times and still not resolved.
When radio was first having issues, “dealer” technician wrote on service paper, “customer needs to read owner manual” cause they said it was user error🤬🤬🤬.
CarPlay still has plenty issues, maps don’t work. Screen doesn’t come on, navigation doesn’t work, Bluetooth doesn’t work properly. All these extra SAFETY OPTIONS DONT WORK PROPERLY!!!
Sorry! For anyone looking to buy… stay away from the 21’s! Especially used 21’s! They will have plenty issues.
Thank you!! I was literally just looking at a used 2021 XLT Sport with under 8,000 miles. Good price too. Then some red flags. Owner had it brand new for 10 months. Two recalls (not fixed), plus two other issues that are called "courtesy notifications" for issues (like tailgate automatically opening).
That's enough to scare me away (sadly). I miss having a F150, but too many warning signs.
@@nocarbsnation tailgate automatically opening? Wow! That’s a new one!! Lol! I’m still having issues with my truck. I ordered a new 2022 in December of 2021. We’re going into the 3rd quarter of the year and it still hasn’t been built! 😡 if they offer me a 2023 I’ll take it, I’m not taking one that’s a year old when I bought mine at the beginning of 21.
your average dealer is no different then calling in some random tech support line- total hit or miss if you get someone who has any idea what they're talking about or actually give a shit about fixing your problem
@@o713 I ordered an '22 F250 end of Nov '21 and it's scheduled for production end of Oct '22 assuming no more delays, lmao. So basically 1 year, or more for an order. Needless to say, I bought a '22 off a lot earlier this year and paid $750 to ship it halfway across the country because I was able to get it for MSRP, which in this market is tough to do. It's nuts that I saved thousands by ordering 1,500 miles away because I couldn't get it anywhere in the northeast US without price gouging.
That totally sucks we have a 21 Lariat powerboost and when we were driving on the freeway when the gauge cluster suddenly turned off and wouldn’t turn back on so we had to pull over and turn the truck off and on back again and when it did turn on everything was reset .This issue has happened 3 times and yes we also have the CarPlay issue and lastly the issue were it switches from electric to gas is annoying how the entire truck shakes.
I’m not bragging at all, my lowly 2017 STX ain’t got a lot of options, no power seat, no smart climate control and after watching this I’m tickled to death. Man I really hope they get her fixed, it is a beautiful truck for sure.?Can’t say I’d be as calm as you, 70+ grand is a lot of money to me🥵 you are a better man than me
Perfect example of why you never buy a first model year of a new redesign. Always wait 1-2 years for all the bugs to be fixed
Exactly why I waited 3 years for my ranger
If nobody every bought the first model year, there wouldn’t be anyone bringing the issues to the surface to be resolved, not to mention the issue of the manufacturer having some severe financial difficulties as a result of producing hundreds of thousands of vehicles that nobody is buying.
#EarlyAdopter
Except Ford likes to redesign vehicles almost annually. Constantly changing part #s, design, etc. It makes it extremely challenging to work on fords for us techs.
It used to be true. The old model of introducing a new model or make over, then over the course of roughly 5ish years they would iron out the issues and then start it all over again. But we are seeing now that the manufacturers are making large changes year to year now. Parts are changing, supply chain issues, and very significant software changes have become the ghost in the machine. So the old adage you should just wait a few years doesn't really work like it used to. We are seeing it right now that the dealers can't do recalls for specific model years of the same truck run because the software changed and they don't yet have a fix for it. The reliance on software and so much tech that is clearly not tested and ironed out is a problem, and worse yet if it is this hard to maintain when the vehicles are new you can forget these things being supported in 5 or 10 years from now. Your vehicle will become like a Google phone that once they stop the updates you have to get a new phone. Think that sounds far fetched? Just wait. Much of the new co-pilot and auto drive stuff all requires online connectivity and constant updates. People are so enamored with the tech toys they don't think about the long term ramifications. I guess if you are constantly in a new vehicle and willing to stay on the little wheel in a cage then it is all fine. Anyone who keeps vehicles and later needs any sort of support, parts etc is in for a real treat. They can't support this stuff now while it is new.
I just bought a power boost 6 weeks ago. Always had pickups and this has to be the best driving truck I’ve ever had . Continue to document the problems and I am crossing my fingers with mine . Good Luck
I feel your pain. I’m in the same boat with my 2021 Ram having electrical issues. I splurged and got a loaded Laramie with all the bells and whistles and I have been having random electrical issues that the dealer hasn’t been able to fix after 5 visits and over 120 days at the dealership. I’m in the process of filing for lemon law since Ram doesn’t want to offer buy back and I’m tired of paying for a truck I can’t use.
Love your work and hope you get this all figured out. Still drive my 19 and Love it.
Really appreciate your honest ownership experience. My best friend is in communication with Ford on a buy back of his 2021 Lariat Sport Powerboost because of several no-start instances, A-PIN, and multiple communications failures. It sucks because he absolutely loves the truck and like yourself, was one of the last to get a "deal". Ford's actually being good about it and offering to help with his replacement. He's thinking a loaded Tremor now because the Powerboost has scared him too bad.
Mine is being bought back right now. They are saying they will reimburse my loan and give me my down payment. We will see
21 lariat. I built it on Fords website and got to spec it myself. Dream truck gone lol
By the time you get a tremor loaded up it is a similar price to the raptor.
Atleast here in ontario Canada it is.
The Raptor is a much better deal in my opinion.
Thats why I ordered a raptor, 4 to 6 months for build time .

I understand your frustration. Stuff that works good on this truck is the stuff you get with a base model but when you drop the big bucks on all those expensive bells and whistles you really want it to be flawless. I really want the Lariat power boost but I’m afraid of spending that kind of money on a vehicle I wouldn’t be able to trust

My ‘22 has been great so far, granted I’m a month in. Had a 2” level and 35x11.5 Ridge Grapplers installed on my stock 20’s. Love this truck.
I am only a month in on my 22. Any updates? Mine has been fine so far
@@jordanangelo791any updates on your 2022?
I watch all your video reviews Dan and you have some good content and an excellent presentation style. That sucks big time what you have been through with this truck. I wish you luck in getting these issues fixed fast so that you can begin enjoying this truck after spending all those dollars. I sense there's a really happy Powerboost owner in you and just under the surface, waiting to emerge if only these damn problems would just get resolved. Nothing I've heard you report on, in any of your videos, would prompt me to cancel my Powerboost order. I've got some associates and a friend who own Powerboosts and they've had great luck with theirs and love them. But that doesn't mean to say you're not having problems, because obviously you are! Good luck and I look forward to better days ahead with the Powerboost and seeing those future videos.
Thanks I really appreciate the kind words and I also agree I TRULY want to love this truck. I think I am going to get on with some other positive content around this truck and platform as I had originally intended and remain optimistic that the issues will be resolved through hardware service and software updates. I really want to love this truck but its been a rough 5 months so far.

What’s the word on your Powerboost? What issues have yo faced with your purchase? Did you get the hybrid? I wanted to love my truck and I made sure I looked and got one that was everything I needed (and wanted extras) like the generator built in as the electricity goes out often here in the boonies. Not even cell service, hard phone lone or cable, here so I use starlink for everything. Got this truck to use the ATT Phone and WiFi, but it doesn’t even work out here so I had to cancel that.
@@OneOfTheGoodGirls I ordered our 2022 Lariat 502A Powerboost on Nov. 12/21 and it arrived at the dealership on May 10/22. I paid MSRP and got a fantastic trade on my 2018 F150 Ecoboost. We're loving the truck, it now has 28,500 kms on it and have not had one single issue with it. It's been back for a couple recalls, the most recent one was to replace the windshield wiper motor. They dealership did it while it was in gettting a free oil change and they gave me a courtesy car to use. Any recall I've had is minor stuff and it's painless. I just checked the fuel mileage meter and I'm currently getting 9.5L/100 kms (29.7 Imp mpg). The truck is the best of both worlds; you can drive it like you stole it or hypermile with it. We tow our 6000 lb RV and typically get about 18 L/100 kms (15.6 Imp mpg)..I highly recommend it. I wish Ford would be a plug in version of this truck.
This is INSANE, you have a ton of patience, bless your heart. I would have sold that thing a long time ago.
I truly hope the issues are resolved.
I am trying to be patient, its a lot to go through. Luckily I am also incredibly busy so I dont have a lot of time to dwell on it either.
I have this truck. A year in and it’s amazing. I live in Canada. In the winter, it’s pretty great on gas all this considered. But in the summer, it’s amazing. It’s advertised as 9.8 city and 9.7 hwy mpl. Tonight I had 7.7! It’s just getting better I feel. A year in and everything is working better

Just bought my power boost F150 lariat in September. I love this truck it hasn’t given me any trouble it’s scoots and really has given me a leadfoot. I’ve only got 4500 miles on it now though so I hope things go right. I can’t afford to spend $70,000 on a truck again. Retiring in January so I have to be careful of what I do with my money. Love your channel I’ll be checking in once in a while. Stay safe merry Christmas God bless.
It scoots for sure, thanks for the support. Merry Christmas to you and your family as well.
I feel so badly that you are having so many issues. You were waiting for your truck around the same time we were waiting for ours and we watched all your videos regarding this truck because we were so excited about getting it.
Knock on wood, we have been very lucky thus far, with no issues. In addition, the generator has been absolutely wonderful for us while dry camping.
I hope it all works out for you, as I couldn’t agree more that the cabin ride of this truck is absolutely amazing!
Sorry to hear of the problems. I'm on at 2300 miles on my 2021 PB with 502A trim and I have yet to find a problem with it. I hope they work with you on it and resolve it.
I shared this with Dan not long ago. I purchased a Platinum Powerboost 10-01-21, and had my driver’s seat stop working and my transmission go out, within 4 days. Ford kept my truck for 22 days replacing my transmission on a BRAND NEW truck. I’m still trying to get my max recline fixed after a half job was done on my seat. I’m living and learning. 🤷🏾♂️

@@tomjohnson8737 How is the reliability on the Tundra iForce? Have you not had Any problems since taking delivery of your new tundra?
NEW = NEVER EVER WORKED
@@MrRupus2020 I just feel blessed to be able to buy new.
@@randolphfj2 unfortunately we're seeing a lot of bad new parts. Best to buy a new model that's the previous year. See if the 2020 models are holding up. Or buy certified pre-owned. Let someone else take that large depreciation hit. Wife could have bought a 20221 Camry, but she saved a ton of money buying a brand new 2020 and they're identical
I feel the same way you are feeling with my 2021 f-150 limited. My auto steering seems to pull so hard that I have to turn it off. The radio and seat needs to be reset every time I drive it. Starting to wish I would have kept my 2019 f-350 power stroke.
Sorry to hear about your continuing problems. I've got a 2021 powerboost that I purchased early February. Absolutely love the truck, and with over 9k on it have no issues. I see where people have problems and it spooks me, cause "Murphy " sits on my shoulder. Hope you can get it worked out because the trucks really are a joy to drive. Thing is s whole different league from my F150 with the coyote, and the 7.2kw generator is just icing.
Thanks so much for your sharing.. I have f150 2021 limited. My screen started turning off a week ago. I am about the call the dealer. Now I'm wandering if replacing the whole module is the right thing to do.
I have had the same issues with my truck since the first week I’ve had it. Only 2-3 times since but still. Even with the Ac completely on, the heater core or something gets stuck wide open. Gets super hot. Always had to stop and shut the truck off and turn it back on.
Really appreciate you sharing your frustration. When you spend that much, you should be able to expect that things work as promised.
Thanks Steve, I appreciate that. I agree.
Welcome to the club. Wish you didn’t have to learn this lesson the hard way. While most vehicles will be fine the ones that have problems like yours and mine really make owning a new vehicle a pain. Ford and the dealer got their $$, perfect in every way, you got the vehicle, imperfect in many ways. Wish I had my 2012 Silverado WT with the V6, crank windows, manual door locks, lever style 4x4 engagement and less electronics back. Not all is bad with the F150 though. Most comfortable, quiet and fuel efficient truck I’ve ever owned. 24mpg on one leg of a 4200 mile trip to and from Colorado. Solid 19-21 local driving before the weather turned cold here in Vt all on a 5.0 non turbo’ed V8. We could have a separate discussion on turbos but the tekkies don’t wanna hear it!
Yep been there done that. Bought a brand new 2012 F-150 FX4 with nothing but problems. Always at the dealership to get things fixed. They're beautiful trucks but unfortunately it was my first experience with Ford and my last. Now I drive a 2016 Tundra bought new as well and it's been amazingly reliable!!!
Love your patience and views. I sure feel for ya. You know I got a 2019 Ram Longhorn. Fully loaded with all the goodies. Yes in the back of my mind is all these electronics and how will it hold up. In my winter climate it gets stupid cold. -35 Celsius at times. That can play havoc. But so far no issues at all so far. Hope it works out for you.
Thanks Ram Rider, happy to hear the Ram is holding strong. The Ram was high on my list of potential trucks.
So saddened to hear this! I can only imagine your frustration! I have a 2022 on order 🤞🏻😒
I appreciate it. Hopefully they are ironing out some of these gremlins for the 2022's
I just bought today my 2021 f150 xlt with 302 High package. Hopefully I don't get any issues with electronics so far is awesome. I love it
I am very happy to hear that. I hope mine is awesome one day too because honestly it is an amazing truck on the road, if only they can get all of these gadgets they sold me working right.
I hope you get everything running correctly. I pick up my F150 Limited powerboost on 31 December. We have a 2014 Ford Fusion (no longer being manufacturing) Titanium Hybrid. We purchased an extended warranty. The transmission just went out and because of the extended warranty, it is no cost to us.
Looking forward to hearing you tell us that it is working as expected.
Not sure if its the same issue, but I had a bad temp sensor on the driver side in my 2018 Mustang that would sometimes cause the driver's side vents to blow either way too hot, or way too cold. Sometimes it would work, sometimes it would blow hot ass air when it was summer outside (set to 70F, Auto). That took a bit of time to figure out, but once it was replaced everything worked just fine.
Interesting, Sounds like something I am dealing with for sure.
Thanks for sharing. I have a 21 Platinum and have had some issues that Ford are working me with me on.
Interesting, any major issues?
This actually happened to me where the AC in the passenger side was really hot! But I restarted the truck and it never happened again. Honestly man I feel like you should lemon law the truck with the constant issues
It could be a Ford problem as I had 2020 F150 XLT which had same problem of cool and heat problems.
Man I feel for you. It super unfortunate all these problems are happening to you. I got my Lariat around the same time you did and the only issue I've had was needed to take the truck in to have the transmission relearned the shifting pattern. The Powerboost shifted extremely hard initially, but since then all is good.
Sorry all this BS is happening to you considering how much you've paid for this thing. Might be time to pull the plug on it and move on.
Wishing you a merry Christmas and a healthy and safe new year, thank you for all the wonderful videos you provide for us. Blessings to all peace on earth, Amen
I have 27000 on my power boost zero issues Awsome truck!!
This socks bro!! I have a 2021 Lariat Powerboost 502A and I love this truck. 3rd F150 in 5 years(16' Lariat, 19' Lariat and now the 21'). I hope you get the issues cleared up and resolved.
I got my powerboost a few weeks ago. Looks like Ford did a mid cycle refresh after June. Truck is now available with the CCD suspension and a few other goodies. I’m hoping the small refresh helps to fix some of these early gremlins.
How is that mid cycle
@@Greentree57 call it whatever you want. But Ford took the supply chain delays to add additional options to their trucks that weren’t previously available in trucks that were produced earlier in the same model year.
Mine was built July 2021. Zero issues so far 11k miles. Hopefully continues to be that way
This is what I would do when my dual zone would go bonkers on my 2009 Flex Limited.
Lower the temp all the way to Low, then raise the temp all the way to HI.
That would sync it for a couple weeks. The HVAC worked every time as it should for a few months there after. It didn't matter if the "sync" was set or not.
I'm sorry you are having so many issues and I hope they get resolved! I've been very lucky with my '21 Lariat but I know many have been having issues. Strong lemon laws would solve these issues. If manufacturers knew they'd be obligated to replace lemon vehicles, QA would improve greatly!
I totally agree, its a hot mess. Hopefully some basic module / component swaps solve some issues for me and this truck ends up being enjoyable. Ultimately it is by far the best driving truck I have ever owned. Its just a nightmare with everything else.
@@GearsGadgets there is a noticeable difference in the ride quality compared to my 2020. The 2021 is much smoother!
I have a GMC Sierra that has had these types of problems. Not often, but there have been some like the hot air coming out of one side and not the other. The most significant problem was the electronic parking break NOT releasing which is a show stopper since there is no mechanical release or any other way to release the brakes. I have found that the truck is a lot like my home computer such that I have to reboot occasionally. Sometimes I have to pull the plug for a full reboot and the truck is like this --- the battery has to be disconnected and reconnected to clear a problem. I now carry a small ratchet in the truck that fits the battery cable connection. So far this has always cleared a screwy electronic problem and I have to do this just two or three times a year.
Wow, hope you get it all sorted out. I have a Limited Powerboost and I love it. I had a dead gas pedal issue where the engine would go to sleep for 2 or 3 seconds when operating at low speeds like turning at an intersection or turning out into traffic which scared me to death. They have since sorted that issue. Now my auto crash sensor goes off when there's no cars directly in front of me. These are my only issues thus far. I'm warrantied up for 120k miles so not too worried, but if this truck doesn't last me, I'd consider leaving the brand. The new Tundra lacks mostly all of the feel good features and attention to detail of the Ford at these trim levels, but I think that's where I'll head next. I left GM for good over problems with my Sierra.
Hey just curious, having the same issue with the brakes going dead. What was the fix?
I got the extended plan specifically because I was fearful of the electric components dying out out after the warranty ended. Hope you can get this fixed
Smart, I hope so too.
how long is the extended warranty and what does it cover
The plan is called premium care 96 months or 100,000 miles expires 9/29 total price with tax 2889.00
@@rachellelapre9238 that’s bumper to bumper coverage?
@@TheGregh1977 that’s what I understood
Did you ever call Ford Customer Service? I have heard on other channels that they can print off your Ford Pass error codes. Maybe they can help you out. I have had my Powerboost for a few weeks now. No issues so far. “Knock on wood”. I hope you get some resolution soon. Thanks for making these videos.
Sorry you been having issues, my 21 power boost lariat been doing good. Only issues I seen is the wireless connection for Android auto some times disconnects. Then reconnects on its own in a few seconds.
Happy to hear you are having a good experience, I hope to get there one day.
Dan I think that I one of the lucky one I had no issues so far with my limited powerboost so far Well Dan the one thing if you can say that came out of this is you got a lot of new content for your channel but I hope that everything gets fixed love the channel
I am happy to hear that you arent having any issues, hope to be there myself one day. Trust me, this was NOT the content I was hoping to be making on this truck, not in the slightest. This is WAY too much money to spend on a truck for some RUclips content.
What a bummer, I got my Lariat Powerboost right around the time you got yours (13k Miles on mine). Live in Northern MN in the freezing cold and for the most part mine has been flawless. The only time I have issues is when Ice and snow build up on the sensors but once it gets warmed up in the garage it goes back to normal. Carplay issues are the same on mine. It amazes me that Apple and Google play are not very dependable but I have just learned to always plug the phone in and forget it. But I am frustrated because it struggles to connect to the truck wifi while using carplay.
But I agree with you this thing is the most amazing truck I have ever driven but the electrical issues are concerning I won't lie. I hope mine will last for many years to come!
Sucks man. Hope they fix it for you. Definitely keep records and track of your service visits. I have a 2013 Screw. It's been a good truck. It has its quirks as well.
Thanks for the video, I have the same truck and now have 72k miles on it, yes I drive a lot. I have the exact same problems you had on your truck. The dealer told me it was a sensor that caused the heating/cooling fault. It’s been fine since they replaced it, however, they are now telling me I have to pay $2300 to replace the entire exhaust system as it has created something to overheat? No idea yet, but still investigating it. It’s not covered under my extended warranty as Ford is calling “maintenance” and it also does not involve any electrical components. Now Today I received a new fault code “Power Reduced to Lower Engine Temperature” and the gauge is stating that the temp is normal, It’s in limp mode now. The fun never stops. Lastly, for anyone who lives in cold weather climates, the dealer informed me that if you wash the powerboost F150 in temperatures less than 32 degrees, you run the risk of the sensors breaking and they will not cover it under warranty! The dealer just told me that’s the price you pay to have the hybrid power boost. The gas mileage is great, but with these issues, it's time to find another vehicle.
Hey Dan I hope everything works out for you I have A F150 2016 model thinking about upgrading but now I don't know thank you for your videos
It hasnt been fun for sure but there are plenty of people out there with trucks that have been fine so I guess its just a roll of the dice no matter which brand you go with anymore.
THANKS FOR THE ADVICE ON THE LEMON LAW GAME AND KEEPING TRACK OF PROBLEMS. VERY USEFUL.
It sucks to be in the position but its something that requires documentation. Thanks for watching.
My new 2021 ford f150, just like yours, but with black rims, shut down and made a high pitched grinding sound, lost nearly all gas and brakes to get off the road, and all lights and warnings flashed saying every possible component was not working. i sat there with the truck off and barely off the shoulder, cars going by, and the hubby was looking up the number to the closest ford place when after a few mins, the truck stopped beeping and flashing all kinds of failures, and i was able to turn it back on. i drove it to the local dealer who can pull up its history right on their computer, by the vin number. thats kind of cool. but they dont know what caused it so im going to tell them about this ipim?? module that you mentioned. someone else here mentioned that hooking up a trailer caused issues and we noticed that our trailer lights were pulsing just barely, but that was odd. its in the shop as of today so wish us luck. i will post an update if i get one.
Mine has been great. It's 2021. Sorry for your issues.
This is a bummer, I've had my 2021 F150 since June, the first week I had it the AC glitched twice but has been a dream ever since.
Did you have to get the AC fixed or did it fix itself?
Uh.... It's March of 2022? If your a/c broke in June of 2021 how could it be a "dream" ever since? It hasn't even been 10 months?? You probably don't even know if it's fixed yet.
I have a 2021 with 40,000 miles...... no problems. I love my truck and I'm sorry about your issues
I have a 2022 F150 with eco boost, love the truck drives like a dream. A few times after driving for an hour or so with the a/c on the cab would start to warm up. I can hear the blower motor running on high speed but nothing is coming out of any of the vents. Also at times the with the a/c on the fan speed will by itself speed up to the point it gets to cold in the truck. Its in the dealer right now, they have not been able to find the problem yet.
Sorry to hear that man!
Hey Dan, maybe someone else has already asked you this, or you knew about it; but have you checked all of your fuses throughout the truck (including the engine compartment) to make sure they're fully seated? Yeah I know what you're thinking, but it's been the solution for a few problems with other folk.

I remember i had dual climate acting up on me in Silverado where driver half would auto change about 45 seconds after engine start to full blast heat even it was set down to cool all the way... luckily the actuator would have easy to access plug and i disconnected it before the 45 seconds would expire and left it entire summer that way, then in winter i reconnected that and it worked just fine as suppose to, assuming some moister in module somewhere dried out and fixed it self
Great video thank you for posting it! Was your truck built on a Monday or Friday? Sounds like you bought a $72,000 🍋.
The exact same issues I had with my 2021 explorer xlt..phone charger and info charger, ac stopped working abruptly in August and heated seats not working on driver side and heated steering wheel way to hot after they took six weeks to fix with no rental. Also only 7,500 miles on it.
Brutal
You weren't offered a loaner vechicle while your truck is in getting fixed by Ford?
Thats disgusting!
I have 2017 F 150 and being a wonderful truck never have a problem I am ready for my 2022 F150
Bummer dude... I've been shopping and have chosen the PB. For those of us about to buy, please keep us updated. Good work!
Will do for sure, I wouldn't tell people NOT to buy a Powerboost at this point because I haven't had any powertrain issues, its all been module related for me at this point. The truck is a dream to drive, if only I could just live with turning off the head unit and HVAC system it would be perfect. I will just cruise around with headphones and layers lol. I do see a day when all of these issues are ironed out for me with hardware swaps and software updates that MAY already be done in newer trucks rolling off the line today.
April 13 bought a 2021 Platinum...has been flawless! 3.5L Ecoboost but no powerboost.
I feel your pain Dan. I also love the feel and ride of my 2021 F-150 XLT, but the CRAZY APIM Module electrical crap has forced me to pursue Michigan Lemon Law replacement. Ford has agreed to replace my truck with a 2022 truck as two (2) APIM replacements have failed to correct my issues. They are to contact me next week with the formal details. Just curious if you ever tried hooking up a trailer to your truck? That's the thing that would really trigger my electrical failures. Also, my Pro Trailer Assist stuff would never work from day one - part of my trailer tow package that I paid $880.00 for!!
Hi Frank. How difficult was it to get them to replace your truck? I have had mine a few months and have multiple mechanical troubles with less than 8k miles. She's currently in the shop :( I bought her brand spanking new and have tranny issues, light shuddering when lightly accelerating uphill, 4x4 doesn't work, all drive modes disabled, and a horrible grinding noise coming from the engine block. I LOVE this truck! We have 2 that are near identical (his has the extra towing capacity, and we bought them at the same time) and there are ZERO issues with his, so I would assume it's just the bad one off the line. Which we all know does happen. The thing is... I didn't pay all that money for a brand new truck to be failing and rebuilt- I mean, wouldn't that impact the value of the vehicle overall?
@@kimfb1443 Hello Kim,
Wow, your truck sounds way worse than mine!
The first thing you need to do is take a look at the Lemon Law for your state. If you qualify for replacement under the rules your state has in place, you would then contact Ford and tell them your intention to get a refund or a replacement vehicle under Lemon Law rules. I turned down my initial Ford offer I received on December 23, 2021 that was to to give me back all my money minus mileage. I am leasing and I opted instead for them to make me a new identical (2022) truck with NO changes to my original lease agreement. The only change they can make is to change the VIN number when the new truck is built. Ford is saying that the new truck most likely will be built sometime in February and I'm ok with waiting that long as I mainly need the truck for the boating season. Save all your paperwork and document EVERYTHING relating to your truck problems. Of course, the pandemic and the chip shortage is increasing the wait time for everything so don't expect a quick fix. Good luck!!
@@frankwalker1075 Update: I just spoke to the Ford dealership (they are so kind). There are multiple issues.
Firstly, the integrated wheel end on the front passenger side is failing which is why the 4x4 will not engage. Unfortunately, because the truck is so new, the parts are on back order indefinitely. They have sent a request to "Big Ford" engineers, as I like to call them, to request the parts directly from the line. Pending a response on that.
Secondly, they were able to recreate the crazy noise and decided that it is something with the transmission and/or some front -end pump as the sound emanates from the center of the engine/tranny linkage area. Here's the kicker... they don't have a transmission tech right now due to the staffing issues seen across the country *cough* letsgobrandon *cough*. I talked with "Big Ford" about this and they are checking my area for a dealership that is capable of dropping the motor and trans in order to do a full diag on this issue. Kicker #2... The dealership it is currently at cannot transport it to wherever it will need to go. And I cannot drive it there either. Sooooo... we shall see.
I am not upset, I know there are going to be issues with some ratio of vehicles coming off the line. It happens. Ford has always taken care of me and I understand that while it may be a pain to deal with ESPECIALLY this year - it's not intentional, negligent, or malicious. It just is.
I'll try to get the video of the sound uploaded.
*FYI* Ford just issued a recall for the underbody insulation issue - the one where it sags a bit and touches the shaft making a ticking noise.

@@kimfb1443 Hey Kim,
I don't know what state you are in, but I would pursue the Lemon Law thing with all the problems you are having. In Michigan, the Lemon Law can be used if your vehicle is in the shop for more than thirty (30) days or the dealer has had four (4) tries at fixing the same defect with no luck. My truck hit on both criteria and also had two (2) complete APIM (computer) replacements that failed to fix my electrical problems. Like you, I also bought two new Ford vehicles in 2021 and only one is having major problems. Ford knows I am a loyal customer and they referred me to the Ford RAV (Re Acquired Vehicle) program almost immediately after reviewing my case and I think reviewing my past buying history. I can drive my truck for now as long as I don't attach a trailer to it and I can wait for them to build me a new truck later this winter. You might want to look into the Lemon Law option as your dealer is on record as saying that they cannot fix your issues due to staffing issues and parts shortages You also should look at the NHTSA website as your problems definitely sound safety related to me. Good luck with everything!
Well good luck,I just ordered a 2022 F150 hybrid. Now I am praying
Plenty of people on the road with no problems. Maybe its just bad luck of the draw of Ford that this truck went to a modestly successful entry level RUclipsr.
I'm so sorry that you're having all these issues! I was a big fan of you getting a new F150. Hopefully you're getting the kinks worked out now (under warranty) and it provides you many years of trouble free enjoyment!
You hit the nail right on the head. It’s a great truck, however, the electronics are a complete nightmare. Lemon Lawed my ‘21 Lariat and got into a ‘19 Lariat. Bottom line.. I’m happy.
Older is better right? 🤣😂
Buy a 2016 like mine. It has an ignition key!! It is simple. I adjust the heating/cooling with my hand. The truck stuff works great. Rides like a dream. I did add a rear sway bar. Something Ford was never interested in. Makes a big difference. Simpler is better. As I learned from your video, the more electronics you have, the more things there are to go wrong.
I have a 2021 F150 Lariat and was really torn between 3.5 Powerboost and 3.5 Ecoboost when I ordered back in Dec 2020. In the end I ordered the 3.5 Ecoboost as the Powerboost adds a lot of complexity and I didn't want to be the first year guinea pig. I have questioned my decision many times, but following your issues makes me feel like I made the right decision at this point in time. I have had a few small quality issues: wind noise from rear view mirrors, rear bench seat not sitting flush between driver and passenger side, grinding noise from steering wheel in cold weather, and front driver tire rubbing inner fender well at fully lock when reversing. My dealer has been great about working through these issues. I am happy that none of them are powertrain issues or electrical issues.
My AC while on road trips will start blowing at a higher speed even though I have it on blower speed 1...was thinking it might just be trying to keep the temperature. Have not found anything on this behavior as of yet. Did a soft reboot for the satellite radio after it started lagging. Either that solved the problem or a system update..
32k on my 2021 Powerboost I'm suire glad I have not had your problems. In fact zero problems.
That is awesome, gives me hope that maybe after they chase away these gremlins that maybe I can be in the same boat one of these days.
I have had no issues with my truck, I'm loving it. I have had it since September. You need to understand new equipment i had several times with dodge where the a./c wouldn't work on the drivers side or happens. I know it is annoying but it is what it is.
It's a real shame that your truck has had so many issues. I have wanted a new F150 for some time but the tech always psychs me out because you just never know if it will work or not. Some will, some won't. Heck, my parents bought a 2016 pilot brand new and that has had MANY issues, like needing the seats replaced, full injector replacement, now the transmission is making a weird noise and apparently a bearing is shredding. Maybe it's luck? Who knows. Best of luck to you, hopefully you can get it sorted out like magic and it's flawless.
Get one without all the bells and whistles, go for an STX. They have a smaller screen, but besides that, everything else is basically what'd you'd get in a truck for the last 30 years
I am having problems with my brand new 2022 Powerboost. Cold start makes a terrible sound until I drive away. I have had the PCM re programmed as it is a known issue. But now my Hybrid features aren't as great. The engine doesn't turn off as often and my electric bar that I can use before the engine kicks back on is smaller. Also my driver side power window button for auto up doesn't work for the passenger window. I also have a terrible rattling vibration sound at 1500 rpm which happens be right where the truck operates most of the time.
I feel for you. Had my 21 Powerboost XLT 302a since April; 9k mi. My biggest failure was loss of brakes due to "bad programming." During the failure, the system went crazy with warnings for almost every thing but only 2 recorded on fordpass. Now have trans leak so my truck has been parked for over a month now. If wasnt for the issues, I would love this truck.
So are they going to fix the leaking transmission?
@@justinl8455 Honestly, I have my concern they won't. It is going in for a third time on 1/20. Last time, they had it for 5 days around Christmas and admited it's leaking but said, I shit you not, that "it's really hard to see in that area" so they couldn't verify the issue. Since they couldn't verify it's a warranty issue, they tried to charge me $125 diagnostic fee. The first time in, at different dealer, they said no leaks until I showed up and pointed to the drip and fluid under it, they were too backlogged to reevaluate it since they completed my appointment in their eyes. It is ironic that I have been sent home driving it with no fix but I have been warned by the service advisor that if there is damage from me driving it with low fluid, that it possibly wouldn't be warrantied since I drove it knowing it is leaking. The stupidity of it is almost funny but sad. Ford customer relations is useless.
@@miked5220 can you trade it in and get a different truck like a Toyota or a Nissan?
@@justinl8455 Hopeful it doesn't come to that as I really like the pro power but if it does, I am sure trade-in would be an option and the 22 Tundra would be a good option.
I have a 2018 base xlt and driven it 30k miles now. My wife and I have driven two trips out west from our state Ohio two consecutive years. With the last time being with the pandemic in full bloom. It was enjoyable and as my wife said it was comfortable. Seats in my screw are good for long trips. I guess I’m saying that I hate you have so many things making your experience a miserable one. But at least you have options. I have had some local dealers wanting me to sell them my truck with a notable profit for myself. I have considered it but I don’t think it would be wise with all the uncertainty of chips and quality issues at this time. And my wife told me she likes the truck and won’t let me Lol. I guess you’ll figure out a solution that would be suitable to you and I hope you get the truck you can be happy with. Good luck!
🙌🏼 OMGosh… I’m so thankful to find this video!!! ⚠️ Short version: SCREW FORD, 🚫DO NOT BUY A FORD VEHICLE AS THEY DO NOT STAND BEHIND THEIR PRODUCT!!!
I have your same issues and WAY more, including the firewall falling off @ 4500 miles and they couldn’t replace for 5 months. In March 2021 I bought the 🤬 2021 Lariat Powerboost with 7.5 generator and it the BIGGEST FKN REGRET of any vehicle I’ve ever owned (out of like 30)‼️ Completely loaded with every extra I could get (over $75k plus additional $5900 for a hard tonneau cover, 8 ply tires, High Country nerf bars for steps & ceramic tint on the windows). Recall on windshield as it “pops out” as the seals are bad. Ford wont pay for the ceramic to be put back on.
I purchased this as I moved across country out West to a remote area almost 2 hours from the nearest city/stores and 15 miles on a dirt road into the National Forrest. I needed to ENSURE I had a dependable vehicle that I wouldn’t have to worry about breaking on me so far away from a repair shop and as a single lady I wanted an extra layer of safety. Not what I got at all. And so mad with myself as I traded in my Chevy truck & my Tahoe 😢(miss them for sure) on this TOTAL PIECE OF S*!T‼️
Sorry for your issues but glad I’m not the only one‼️
The list is so long on issues with this vehicle that I’m dumbfounded. Short in the Drivers window and the wouldn’t roll up and stay up. 3 feet of snow and below zero weather and NO HEAT 1/2 the time in the winter and summer the AC wouldn’t work properly. Going down the road the screen/ dash goes out while driving. It puts itself in AUTO park randomly. The transmission sounds awful like it has rocks in it intermittently (which I have on video) The fuel range will show I only have around 300 miles when I have just filled up. Radio wont play/ Apple Car play wont recognize my phone on wireless, so I plug it in and it wont recognize I have it plugged in OR charge my phone. The shifter gets stuck some times in Park and wont go into drive AT ALL. I have had to walk home several times while either at the post boxes 4 miles away or on the other 30+ acres from my land as It wouldn’t go into gear. The sensors on the bumpers are intermittent as well, and God forbid they get dusty or muddy because they set off the alarm driving down the road, and it will slam the brakes on…. OR they dont sense when I am close to something to alert me. The rear camera picture turned white like it was smoked ( 5 weeks backordered). Windshield wiper motor inoperable.
My first accident EVER, it didn’t alert me I was close to the cement barrier and I bumped it by the headlamp.. 7 months later it is still in the shop as parts are impossible to get. (PS. A headlamp alone is $1850, not including installation). Insurance only paid for 30 days of rental and I have been 6 months without a vehicle!!! The nearest neighbor (who me I dont know) is over a mile away and my nearest family is 1800 miles from me.
SO AWFUL.
I believe as of now there are, what, 15 plus recalls on this truck…. and that doesn’t address these other issues we speak on here!! There are way more issues than mentioned or recalled.
I called FORD Corporate and opened a case and they are “too bad, good luck”.
Let me add, I am an Iraq OIF/OEF Veteran, in which I was injured while deployed and medically retired after a a year in the hospital due to my injuries. I moved to the country to help with PTSD and to have peace and FORD has made this a living nightmare for me for 2 years now!!!!!!!!‼️‼️
Sorry for being lengthy, and venting, but the above is a true story.
One of the reasons I didn't get a top of the line 2021 Ford F-150 PB. Purchased a XL without all the bells and whistles. It was still in the shop for idiot lights, but has been perfect since. Knock on wood.
Ken, what did u get ..thinking. about buy end of next year . Xl or xlt not sure yet.
@@craigwilson1284 2021 Ford F-150 XL with the powerboost hybrid. Only two availble within a hundred miles from my home. Wanted the bigger genny. None available in southern new england. Got the 2.4 instead of the 3.6, only thing I settled with. Otherwise, exactly what I was looking for. Without my trailer 24 miles per gallon, with trailer 13.
Good to hear its been good since service.
Landed here on this video after searching for a similar issue. A friend of mine has a '23 Powerboost and just over 6k miles and his truck is throwing all sorts of codes, the display goes in and out, AC actually stopped working, park sensors no longer work, sometimes the truck won't start. Really odd and started out of no where. His dealer appointment isn't until Monday so we will see how it goes.
I am curious how soon did you purchase your truck from the release date ? I am curious of you ended up with a lemon , a friday truck , or a truck that was rushed in production because it just got released?
Any update (forgive me if I've missed other posts) on the powerboost problems? Thanks.
I am having a problem also in eco mode I have yellow warning icon on left bottom corner showed yellow as before it was green. Have been taken in 2 times no resoultion as of yet.
Same same same on all points. I’m working on a lemon law claim in my powerboost. Came off the delivery truck with a check engine light. Been in the shop 5-6 times in 4 months. Fed up. Too much money for the issues.
Thats crazy, what was the check engine light for?
@@GearsGadgets emission control system detected a leak in the fuel tank allowing vapors to escape. 4 trips to dealership for that one. Replaced the fuel pump and finally a solenoid in the system that had gone bad( might be fixed). Once that was figured out over the span of 3 months my speakers stopped working and my truck thought it was in Canada when in fact I was in the US. They had my entire dash, both front seats, and center console ripped out troubleshooting. Replaced everything gave me my keys back and said it’s working now but could stop at any moment. The apim is on back order we’ll let you know when it comes in. Drove home my screen shut down just like yours.
Loved the truck just like you said but I’m over it. Its very frustrating.
Sorry about your truck. Hope it's gets straightened out cause you have a nice truck. Any word on when ford is supposed to release bluecruise for our 21 f150's? Let me know. Thanks
So, I bought a 2021 Powerboost around Oct 21, and its now May 7th, 22. I have about 8800 miles on it and today, I went to open it up to grab my sunglasses and I was going to drive my Jeep. The weird thing is it didn’t recognize my fob like always. I had to use the manual key to get into it, it was totally lit up with warnings (emergency brake service) in red, I hit ok, and their were many other things lit up. I tried to start it, it just kept throwing up random warning lights. Then the brake was pulsating when i put my foot on it to try to start it and then it was done, as in, completely dead. I cant even get in the back of my truck to get to my tools because i have a back flip on it so its locked tight. I managed to get the battery cables off and then reinstalled, nothing has changed. It’s like it doesn’t even have a battery in it. My head lights are set for auto (never have changed that and dont see a reason to do so). It stays locked in my carport. We have 5 vehicles but this was going to be our long trip vehicle, now I’m nervous as to the reliability of it and watching your channel as well. Dealership will have to drag it out of the carport monday and have no clue what it could be. Never acted like a battery running low, looked more like a computer glitch issue. Thoughts?
Wow bro hope I don’t have to feel your pain we have the same truck same color only difference FX /4 x 4 301 miles in so far coming out of a lariat 2017 which after four years started giving me problems but anyway trucks been great so far good luck with working it out good video
Awesome to hear, I hope mine is headed in a positive direction at some point too.
I'm having significant power train issues. I can't accelerate hard. The motor will reduce power and I'll get several warnings on the dash. Then the AC goes hot and I can't use the onboard generator. I have to pull over, shut the truck off, get out, get back in, and then things work again.
I have a 2021 F150 King Ranch PowerBoost with close to 13,000 miles on it. It has been flawless so far and the most enjoyable truck I’ve ever owned; and I’m old.
My mom bought a 2021 Ford F150 and every now and then her center console display fails to boot and she gets just a blue screen. She then shuts off the truck and restarts and that system will boot properly. Is that part of the apim issue that you were talking about?
I have a 2022 Ford F-150 Platinum Powerboost and it has been nothing but a heap of problems. Sunroof had to be replaced twice because of leaks, rear passenger window broke and was stuck down, and now I have a bunch of strange electronic issues. Stereo popped super loud one day at full blast and a bunch of crackling. Trailer brake system fault light keeps coming on. The gas tank open light comes on and off randomly. The notification that child could be left in the back seat is turned on, but I receive continuous notifications to turn it on. My headlights switch turns on or off when exiting the truck for no reason so I can’t place it on one setting. The other day the temperature change control would change the air flow from your face to your feet and the button to push to control that setting would not work. It’s like every day something new happens strange with the truck. I have no clue what is going on and of course you take it to the dealer and they cannot duplicate the issue. I am just so frustrated!!
Well the problems continue. I have a 2022 xlt 302a multiple electrical issues. Like welcome lighting not working ,tailgate switch not working . It's frustrating 😒
Yup agree also with that. I personally would like the Ford F150 XL power boost 4X4. No crazy amount of bells and whistles.
I've had the Same Problems with my 2021 Platinum , $73600 truck,
I've got 7400 miles on mine, My phone doesn't work., My power Tailgate
Doesn't work. This is after my Dealer put a new Apim in it last week.
This 21 Truck is so far the most trouble I've ever had on an F150.
I've had over 20 trucks too.
Own your trucks twin.
Your causing me to really regret buying this truck.
My taking delivery of my truck was Dec. 7, 2021.
I’m now trying to figure out how to get out from under it without loosing my ass.
So far my truck has set inside my shop with less than 500 miles on it.
Anyone care to take ownership?
I’d sell in a heartbeat.
Best riding and handling truck I’ve ever owned and with
no troubles as yet, but feeling out at sea without a paddle.
Hope you dont have any of those issues. This truck is AWESOME on the road for sure but some of the electronics really have me wondering if Fords tech ambition was greater than their capability.
I have a new 2022 powerboost f150 Lariat...took delivery 10 days ago...first night the head lights would not turn on. Took it back the next day...the body control module was replaced...still no lights...has anyone heard of a fix for this issue...?
Modern a/C systems on auto usually adjust the temp automatically base on GPS info and sun position. Ie, it should be cooler on the side facing the sun. Turn off auto if you don't want it that way. This shouldn't cause the heat issue though.
My 2021 F150 Powerboost HVAC issues as well. Not as bad, but the recirculate area will not stay ON unless I'm in Max Cool. As soon as I turn the dial to make the air warmer, the Recirculate turns off, and I get the outside air. It might not be a big deal, but I live in the City, and my truck fills up with Exhaust from the other vehicles on the road. Ford said the "HVAC was working as designed." I'm very disappointed with this "feature." I'm sure it's a programming issue, but I want to control my Cabin Air Quality and NOT be overridden by the computer. Keep up the good videos, and I hope you can resolve your issues soon! If anyone has any suggestions to recirculate issues, please let me know! Merry Christmas!
My 2021 lariat PB was just Lemon Law’d.
3 batteries. ECU change. Harnesses switched. New camera system all around.
Ford is working on my payout right now thankfully
I also paid the same. Window 72,000. I paid around 61,000. Traded in my 2014 3.5 with no issues. It seems like my 21 lariat is a virus on wheels.
My powerboost delivered 11/2/21. Ive had several errors w computer issues . Generator ground faults couldn't reset until i got an APIM update done at dealer . Still has trailer brake control error . Ford updates are slow to come to OTA . I have documented it all. Drives great but this computer worries me but im glad Generator doing better as thats why i got this truck
I think that Ford can resolve a lot of the woes through software updates but they do seem pretty slow being the platform has been out for over a year now. Seems there are a lot of issues being reported that are more software than hardware related.
Nothing wrong with wanting the bells and whistles and expecting them to work. It's why I buy a Platinum. It's a truck, but it's my family luxury vehicle. I don't off road, haul, or tow anything. I also agree that you should document document document everything. I plan on the bells and whistles failing so I prepay the bill by getting the extended warranty. I'm betting I'll use it and come out ahead.
First I just wanna say that I really enjoy your channel. Love the drone and awesome camera work. Super sorry to hear about your truck. My 2021 F150 has its quirks too but nothing like this. I had a 2016 F150 Lariat few years ago and it wreaked havoc on me from ONE ground wire in the right rocker box cover. Smh I hated it til it got fixed. Best wishes and hope you can fall in love with your truck again. 🤘
Thanks, I really appreciate that. I really do hope they come up with a solution because this truck really has an amazing ride quality and really solid fit and finish (except electronics)
@@GearsGadgets Blend door actuator failure may have to take dash apart
My 2021 xlt 302a powerboost has 6k miles on it (bought in July) and have absolutely no issues at all with it. Love the ride and feel. So far no electrical issues. Hopefully it stays that way. I bought extended warranty just in case. Hope you get everything figured out!!
That is good news. Appreciate it!!
Liar
Wonder if your screen that’s running hot. Your thermal shows the screen is 91 degrees. Could the air duct be running behind the screen and getting heated right before it comes out. Maybe the screen isn’t cooling correctly or there’s no insulative barrier between the screen and your ducting? Or the blend door module doing to that side is getting stuck intermittently causing it to not blend air correctly causing hot air some times on one side
