What owners wrote

I drove my f-150 eccoboost truck to the snow, same area I have been hundreds of times and suddenly smoke burst from the engine, then flames shot out around the hood, popped the hood and fought the fire for half an hour, it kept restating. It stranded myself and children, and we had a harrowing experience that was pretty dicey. Ford had just put in a new engine, at my cost, +14,000.00, after the timing chain failed.

Reported at 110,000 miles, January 2020 FireInjury

2014 f150 ecoboost v6 - engine shudders and stalls upon rapid acceleration; issue has been addressed with "deflector shield" but this shield is already in place in my vehicle but the vehicle continues to have this issue - I feel the vehicle is unsafe but ford offers no assistance with resolution of the issue.
