I suppose only Ford knows how many complaints have been filed against the F150 Ecoboost. I know it sucks, any issue for that matter, sucks for those dealing with them. I still bet the number of trucks with issues is quite small compared to the number sold. I would hope and expect Ford to address each owner's individual issues, but the "Oh my, the sky is falling" mentality some have with respect to the Ecoboost is unwarranted, IMHO. Just sayin'.... BTW, I live in the south with rain and humidity. I have 7,000 perfect miles to date on my 2013 F150.

mamonti, I think the whole CAC wont surface until these so called Lawsuits get to court and get a determination or verdict. So many of these get strung out for so long Ford will have a 5th generation ecoboost before anything gets done and the few remaining customers will have long sold there trucks and moved on. The issue is simple, water builds up in CAC and has no where to be discharged but into the engine when the driver pushes the pedal to pass/accelerates. The problem is there on ALL Ecoboosts, some just haven't been in the proper conditions to trigger it. It would make good business sense for Ford to find a proper/complete fix and correct all EB's. Do you really think the 15's will sell if the current EB issues aren't resolved.

2011 96k
It stumbled once around the 50k mark after driving in the rain for four hours through Arkansas/ North Mississippi

Yes, the '15's will still sell. And to be honest, if I was in the market, I would have no problem buying an EB (I would have no problem buying another 5.0 either though). I think it takes a very specific set of circumstances to cause the problem and I do not think it is nearly as widespread as some here would have you believe.

That is everyone's choice to by another EB. I am just saying we will see if any action gets taken due to these lawsuits. I for one would not buy another EB if the original issue never gets solved or resolved by Ford. I like the EB motor and it drives effortless and only hope I can drive mine for 100k+ miles w/o any CAC issue but only time will tell.

Yes the 15s will sell....
The intercooler issue (which I've never had) is still there apparently,sure hasn't hurt the EB sales
Because the majority of people are not having issues,most don't hang on Internet forums where venting about truck issues is the norm...
Most people are extremely happy with the EB,at least those that actually have realistic expectations of mpg:)
Every truck made has issues,spend time on GM,Dodge,Toyota forums....
Am I extremely happy with my EB?
No
I've had Some issues and currently my truck is in shop for a drivers side turbo failing....the first time my shop has done the drivers side turbo,tho they have done a few passenger side ones.
My expectations of vehicles has been lowered over the years,simply because every truck I've owned has had issues....and for the price we pay it's upsetting.
All my trucks have been domestic,maybe I'll look hard at Nissan or Toyota if my EB continues to nag me....
I will say my dealer and Ford have been great tho,something others can't say.

Most people do NOT know what an EcoBoost is! Never mind the fact that some have issues.:huh:

BTW-mine is fixed. Start with a tune, aftermarket IC, and top it off with a CAI for good measure!:thumbsup:

Well I agree with most of the posts here and think we are all on the right page.. Does every ecoboost driver have a complaint,,, No.. Does it have the issue,,,,,I think so as mine went 11000 miles before I noticed it and only because I floored it to show my friend the power. Have I floored it before,,, once or twice but this time was in the right conditions. If most EcoBoost don't have the problem then what is different between theirs and our??? Do other trucks have issues,,, yes... nothing is perfect but I have a sync issue, the shudder and the limp mode... The sync is frustrating, the shudder upsets me but the limp mode shuts down the truck and in traffic it is dangerous! It is almost as dangerous as saying ,,, hey every once in a while given the right conditions your brakes go out!! Not here to bash Ford,, I have 3 vehicles and they are all Fords..... Just don't want to end up in the morgue and have my family find out they could fix the problem but decided profits are more important. I had a Nissan that had a problem or two,,,, a Toyota camary with the gas pedal problem.... I got rid of the Nissan because once I had a problem I had to drive an hour to find a Nissan dealer,,,,,,,,, The camary went as soon as they fixed it because when it became public that Toyota ignored the issue and was forced to fix it the camary values plunged. All cars and trucks have issues but when it comes to possible death or injury I think it is something we all should be concerned about. So for you that haven't had the issue great,,,, but remember that it is possible you may come around the side of a big rig at 75 mph and find a Ecoboost doing 30 trying to get off the side of the road!!!

i'm sure by now there are more threads on here about the EB "condensation" issue than there have been actual occurrences of said issue...

I have had it myself, so I know how it feels like, but do we need so many threads about it?...

Shudder issue at 5k miles (9/24/13). Driving in the rain, had to accelerate from on-ramp to merge into flow of traffic. Nearly got rear ended due to limp mode. Tampa, FL.

Florida is NOT the best place to own an Ecoboost. Especially in the summer where it's raining 6 days out of the week.
