Hi,
I'm on me second lightning. My 2022 model had many issues including one pedal drive malfunctions that allowed the vehicle to roll, screen issues, loose drivetrain with clunks, hood and tailgate malfunctions, and finally a defective battery that all lead to Ford buying back the truck. My new 2023 was supposed to be free of issues but within a month the one pedal drive fault happened and the drive stared slipping instead of stopping, the screen turns off freezes or restarts during driving, the tail gate doesn't work intermittently, and most recently the collision avoidance system malfunctioned on the freeway causing the truck to slam on the brakes and bring me to a screeching halt. Fortunately no one hit me. The dash showed a front camera fault and said the collision avoidance was no longer available. My dealer says there's no error codes and the system shows no signs of a malfunction. They say there's no one pedal drive fault (same as last truck) despite me having a picture of it on the dash. Has anyone else experienced issues like this? My dealer is trying to give me back the truck and I'm not having it. I started another buyback and hope to press Ford to expedite it this time. I spent a year on the 2022 before they agreed to take it back. I can't put my kids in this thing and don't feel its at all safe to drive.
