Used 2019 Ford F-150 SuperCab Consumer Reviews
6 Days and Already Left Stranded
I will give an honest review of both Ford, and our 2019 F150 which we purchased 6 days ago with 17 miles on the odometer. The ride of these are nice, and for those looking for a Full-Size, conventional Ext. Cab from the,"Big Three" Ford is your only choice now. The truck did gives us decent mileage for what little bit we have had it, but on our way from Buffalo, NY to Pittsburgh, PA. we stopped at a rest area, and after returning we go in the truck, and it would not start, service charging system came on, and it wouldn't turn over, at all. Called Ford Roadside, it took them over 2.5hrs to send some idiot with a jumper box in a rusted out Colorado to come out, and after his jumpstart failed he started looking up How-To's on YouTube! Really Ford, that's the best person you could find? He had no luck... Mind you its 90⁰ in the hot sun, and I'm missing a MLB game because of this... Called Ford Roadside again, they said they'd tow it to the nearest dealer. Took the wrecker operator another 1.5hrs to show up, by the time we got to the dealership it was 25 minutes before they closed, the wouldn't give us a rental, they called Enterprise and they didn't have any. So they all closed up shop 15 minutes early, didn't even off us a ride to a hotel so they could look at it Friday July 5th (This was on Wednesday.) and they wave at us after they get in their cars as we're sitting on the tailgate, empty handed, 100 miles from home, no water, anything. They expected us to sit in their lot until Friday. Called AAA to have it towed to the dealer I bought it at, which is where it is currently sitting, that took am additional 2hrs of waiting, and called Corporate to complain about the situation. In all honesty a $40,000 truck shouldn't break down within the first 300 miles, that's utterly ridiculous, and when I told Ford what had happened, and how their franchisees expected us to sleep in my truck, they didn't say a word, didn't even back their product. It's really ashame how these American car makers treat their customers, after this, I don't think I will be buying another Ford, or domestic brand. If you want a truck, get a Toyota, they back their product. If you want a car or small SUV, get a Subaru, and once again, you'll find they back their products well, and both brands get REPEAT CUSTOMERS SINCE THEY BACK THEIR BRANDS!

Ford F-150 2019 major issue
Bought 2019 Ford F-150 had it 5 day got in to start it put key in & screen reads turn ignition off. Couldn’t start couldn’t do anything after waiting all day for roadside assistance called dealership they had to flatbed truck back to dealership. It has been there ever since. In deep sleep mode they don’t have a clue what’s wrong! Brand new truck & im left with no answers & a loaner that is way too small for me I’m looking for anyone that has either had the same issues or knows anything about this issue, because they sure don’t. I should’ve bought a Chevy.

Good modern version truck but doesn't compare to m
As the title says, my new 2019, bought 6months ago is not nearly the same workhorse my 2012 was! So I got rid of it and bought a 2016 crew cab f150 xlt package with 27,000 miles on it and I am very very happy again. I had to vote no confidence in my brand new 2019. It was just too lean and modernized for a real world work truck for me. I'm sorry Ford, but the light and loose suspension, big rims/thin tires really put me off. I tried to get a heavier duty suspension and the blue heavy duty brake pads for it from Ford and they acted like it was a criminal offense and refused to help me. With that and the fact that the rims and tires were a bust I gave up and just went with something older but still pretty new. Also what is the deal with the windows going all the way down your lap? My guess is so police can see if you're on a phone, but it's definitely alittle annoying if the windows are down and you realize that your whole upper body is now exposed.

STAY AWAY!!!!!!!
It was time to replace the wife's '98 Explorer. We looked at Ram, Chevy, Toyota, and Ford. She absolutely LOVED the Ram, but her stature wouldn't allow her to get comfortable. Toyota kept trying to sell ME the truck and ignored my wife. Chevy almost had a sale, but the salesman wasn't interested in making one. Too bad, that Chevy was nice, CrewCab, 4x4, 6.0L if the salesman only worked harder, so reluctantly we went to Ford. I was not interested in buying one, I have 3 old F250's which are tanks. 351, C6, 4x4s but had no interest in this aluminum, 10 speed experiment. BUT since my wife is the buyer, she liked the seats, the visibility, and the "feel". So we bought it. First 2k miles it's ok, except for the valve train tap in the 5.0, the squealing from the belt tensioner, and horrible gas mileage, no better than 18mpg. We brought it in for its 7500 mile oil change, and asked the service dept to look at the issues...."That's normal"...really? I know what a 5.0 should sound like, got one in my car. Now have 11K miles on it and now I hear the clunking in the tranny everyone else is experiencing. I notice how the tranny seems to always be hunting for a gear to settle on. The Autostop/start sucks, as no way to permanently disable it. I'll be taking it to a different service dept the next oil change and ask about the new issues. I'm sure that's all "normal" for a brand new $40k truck. Never again Ford.
