      <description>I was making a road trip in my 2024 F150 Lightning Lariat. I pulled up to a Tesla supercharger. I turned the car off and attempted to plug in but the cable was about three inches too short. So I got back in the truck, turned it back on and put it in gear for the last three inches of travel. The truck accelerated dramatically. It clipped two charging stations, hopped a curb and went into a field, h</description>

      <description>The light bar on the tailgate that is the brake lights and reverse lights  is known to get moisture inside and stop working.      It is a known problem with Ford as they recalled them 2 years ago and replaced it under warranty. However the replacement part suffers from the same issue.    So, my replacement light bar has stopped working, and even though I have Fords Premium Care extended warranty t</description>

      <description>I own a 2022 Ford F-150 Lightning Lariat (VIN [XXX] ). Around June 6, 2025, I brought my truck to Apple Ford Shakopee for a scheduled appointment because I noticed moisture collecting inside the rear light bar. The service representative told me Ford considers that moisture normal, likely from a car wash, and that it would dry out on its own. At that time the truck had fewer than 36,000 miles and </description>

      <description>Earlier this year, I filed NHTSA ID 11663872 when I noticed moisture collecting in the brake light assembly on my truck and Ford called this &quot;normal&quot;, despite earlier issuing a recall for this very thing happening under NHTSA action 23V-418.  Now, the brake light has failed completely, and Ford is denying coverage of this under my extended warranty with the following explanation:  &quot;your claim is d</description>
