I took my 2016 Ford F-150 Lariat in for repairs. I was getting a dash light on Blind Spot Warning and Cross Traffic Warning. My service advisor called and told me I needed a battery junction box but that part was no longer available and that my truck will begin to break down. It only has 46,611 miles and otherwise in excellent condition. I can't believe Ford does not have access the this part to fix my truck. Any suggestions?

Vehicle randomly shifts into 1st or 2nd gear while driving at highway speeds. the wheels lock up and skid, then enters into limp mode. After the incident, the vehicle displays a "check manual," "Blind Spot Detection," and "Cross-Traffic Sensor" light display. After a few minutes in limp mode, the vehicle will correct itself and begin driving normally. This happens 70% of the times i drive the vehicle. I have taken it to the ford dealer 3 separate times. The warranty company won't fix it because when they drive it, it doesn't recreate the issue, and they tell me to keep driving it until the transmission goes out completely.

Intermittently, when using my adaptive cruise control at freeway speeds, the breaks are suddenly applied hard when there is no car in front of me. It has happened several times. So far, it hasn't caused any loss of control, but it does cause cars behind me to slam on their brakes. It generally would slow the car 30-40 mph suddenly, without warning. The date and mileage I am showing below is the last time it happened. It has been happening since the vehicle was new in 2016, but without being able to recreate the problem for the dealer, I didn't notify them. But the situation is getting worse and seems to be happening more often. Also, in separate incidents, the crash warning lights flash on when there is no danger of crashing.

Rear-view backup camera inoperative. Started with broken/fuzzy images with lines then went to blue screen after several weeks. Completely inoperative now. Electrical connections at tailgate have been checked, camera replaced to no avail. Available for inspection if necessary. Safety issue as I can no longer see my front sidewalk when backing into or out of my driveway as children frequently ride scooters up and down the street’s sidewalks. The vehicle has not currently been inspected by anyone for this issue. No warning lamps or messages, just the inoperative display when the camera should be on. Everything else works as intended.

The passenger door won’t latch when I open it. Then won’t latch to close. And my rear camera traffic warning randomly goes off without nothing being in the way annoying to say the least…….please help

THIS ISSUE PRESENT A SIGNIFICANT SAFETY CONCERN AS VISIBILITY BEHIND THE VEHICLE IS LOST WHEN THE CAMERA MALFUNCTIONS. I HAVE INCLUDED AN IMAGE OF MY CAMERA WHEN VEHICLE IS PLACED IN REVERSE.

PROBABLY ABOUT 95% OF THE TIME WHEN USING MY BACK UP CAMERA HAS A DISTORTED IMAGE WITH LINES AND COLORS THOUGHT OUT THE WHOLE SCREEN.

The back up camera has been sporadic for over a year, sometimes it is vertical digit multicolor lines, sometimes it is very dark and "over contrasted", sometimes it is a blue screen, and then sometimes it works perfectly. It started last summer, but before I got around to fixing it, winter came and it worked perfectly until spring. There is a recall for 2020 vehicles experiencing the same problems, so where is my justice? I might add, there is a recall on Ford back up cameras and I had to select "other"? I would think if you know there is a problem with a back up camera that it should at least be an option!
