The Ford F-Series is a series of light-duty trucks marketed and manufactured by Ford Motor Company since the 1948 model year. The F-Series is marketed as a range of full-sized pickup trucks positioned above the midsize Ranger but below the larger Super Duty in the Ford truck lineup. Alongside the F-150 (introduced in 1975), the F-Series also includes the Super Duty series (introduced in 1999), which includes the heavier-duty F-250 through F-450 pickups, F-450/F-550 chassis cabs, and F-600/F-650/F-750 Class 6–8 commercial trucks.

History

The F-Series was first introduced in 1948 as a replacement for a previous pickup model line based on car platforms.

The most popular version of the model line is the F-150 pickup truck, currently in its fourteenth generation (introduced for the 2021 model year). From 1953 to 1983, the entry-level F-Series pickup was the 1⁄2 ton F-100. Starting in 1984, the F-150 became the entry-level. The F-150 has a long-running high-performance off-road trim level introduced for 2010, the (SVT) Raptor currently consisting of three generations. Production of the F-150 SVT Raptor ended in 2014 and it was planned to be succeeded by a new F-150 Raptor, which is based on the thirteenth and fourteenth generation F-150.

The F-Series trucks have been developed into a wide range of design configurations. Alongside medium-duty trucks and "Big Job" conventional trucks (the forerunners of the Ford L-series), the model line has been marketed as a chassis-cab truck and a panel van (a predecessor of the Ford E-Series). The F-Series has served as the platform for various full-sized Ford SUVs, including the Ford Bronco, Ford Expedition/Lincoln Navigator, and Ford Excursion. The F-Series has been marketed by its three North American brands: by Mercury as the M-Series (in Canada from 1948 to 1968), and by Lincoln in the 2000s, as the Blackwood and the later Mark LT (2010s for the latter in Mexico only).

Since 1977, the F-Series has remained the best-selling pickup truck line in the United States; it has been the best-selling vehicle overall since 1981. The F-Series has been the best-selling truck in Canada for over fifty years. As of the 2018 model year, the F-Series generated $41 billion (~$49 billion in 2023) in annual revenue for Ford. By January 2022, the F-Series models have sold over 40 million units. Currently, Ford manufactures the F-Series in four facilities in the United States.

Common 2015 Ford F-150 problems

The 2015 Ford F-150 has been reported to have several common problems, primarily related to its engine, brakes, and electrical systems.

One of the most common engine issues is a rough running engine, which is often caused by a dirty mass air-flow sensor (MAF) that fails to function properly around 100,000 miles. This problem can be resolved by cleaning or replacing the MAF sensor, which typically costs between $100 and $250, depending on whether it is done by a professional or not.

Another engine problem is metallic clicking or rattling, which occurs when the engine reaches average operating temperatures. This issue is caused by a lack of tension in the timing chain, which can lead to engine failure if not addressed promptly. The long-term solution is to install a new, updated head gasket, which can cost between $2,256 and $2,632.

Negative 2015 Ford F-150 car reviews

Hailey Simonis 2025-02-15

Where should I begin? The truck started out brand new, but unfortunately, the heat and AC didn't work. After waiting for three weeks for the part to come from China, it finally worked. However, I've noticed that the doors don't close properly, so I have to be careful not to slam them. Additionally, the seat doesn't adjust up or down, which is a bit of a problem for me since I'm 6ft 1 and my knees hit the steering wheel. The truck comes with two AC plug outlets, but unfortunately, they are useless for charging my drill batteries. They won't charge my 12v 3 amp battery and just blink yellow. It's frustrating to have two plugs that can't handle the job. Also, the truck takes 20-25 minutes to put out hot air in 20-degree temperatures, which is quite a long time. Lastly, the radio signal is weak, and the range is short. All in all, this truck is not suitable for anything other than delivering flowers. It seems like Ford went really cheap on this one.
Berry Crona 2025-02-10

I recently purchased a Lariat that was almost fully loaded with features such as the FX4 package, 4x4, LED headlights, Heavy Tow Package, deployable running boards, box side steps, tail gate step, and all the LED lights around the perimeter of the truck. These features have been incredibly helpful, especially when working at night. Coming from a BMW 530i Sport, I actually enjoy the stiffer suspension, although I do find that the rear end can jump over large bumps. However, when towing or loading the bed, the suspension works perfectly. The truck can pull like a train and you won't even know you have a load being towed. I purchased the truck because I am starting a new business and can't afford the time to go to a repair shop even if it's warrantied. Unfortunately, in the first 2000 miles, I experienced a few issues such as the driver side mirror shaking above 45 MPH, a bearing noise from the front end, vibrations, and a transmission that slams into 1st gear. I also noticed that the passenger side deployable running board makes a whining noise, while the driver side does not. I took the truck to the dealer and they replaced the driver hub bearing and 4x4 actuator, and re-programmed the transmission computer. Although the transmission shifts better, it still bumps intermittently. The dealer claimed that all other complaints were normal, even though one side did not have a shaky mirror and one side the deployable running board was smooth and quiet. Fuel mileage is poor, averaging 16.3MPG when driving like a gentle giant. Highway mileage is 25MPG cruising steady below 60MPH, but if you drive above 65MPH, you will average 16-18 MPG. I do not have confidence in the truck's reliability long term and I am also tired of lazy warranty techs saying everything is OK, when it is not OK. Currently, the truck has 32,000 miles and the transmission shifts are jerky and erratic at times.Too much slip from the torque converter, but don't worry, the dealer can reprogram the transmission as a temporary fix every service. The hub bearing makes a light whirring noise, which the dealer assures me is normal. Unfortunately, the door lock actuator on the passenger rear door intermittently fails, but the dealer has been very helpful in trying to fix it. Despite these minor issues, I still believe that this truck has a lot to offer. If you're looking for a reliable and stylish vehicle, this could be the one for you!
Enrique Cronin 2025-02-09

This has been an excellent vehicle overall, with a few minor issues. It's incredibly comfortable and easy to drive, and I particularly enjoy the XLT package and its options, such as heavy duty towing with towing mirrors, tailgate step, and navigation package. Unfortunately, I did experience a serious problem when the electric brake controller failed, resulting in a permanent hot link to my travel trailer brakes when the trailer was connected. However, the controller was replaced under warranty and has worked perfectly since the repair. While the voice activation of the navigation system and audio and phone functions can be a bit tedious, I find that entering the navigation information by hand on the screen is a simple solution. Additionally, the mileage is overstated by 1-2 miles per gallon on the trip/fuel indicators, but the vehicle has consistently performed better than my previous Nissan Frontier V6 pickup, and is much more comfortable and usable for hauling and towing. It's worth noting that there have been a few issues with the door locks in freezing weather, but I've been informed that there is a recall that will hopefully fix this issue. Lastly, I did experience a problem with the vehicle going into I am concerned about the reliability of this vehicle and the potential for getting stuck on the freeway or in the woods. Unfortunately, the vehicle went into limp mode again, but thankfully the dealer was able to diagnose and repair the issue. Although the repair was not covered by the warranty, I appreciate the dealer's efforts to fix the problem. I am disappointed with the number of safety recalls on this vehicle, including the recent brake recall. Despite these issues, I have driven limited miles due to the pandemic and hope to have a more positive experience in the future.
Dorthy Bergstrom 2025-01-02

I owned the 2015 F150 Platinum 3.5L Ecoboost for 9 months and put 14,000 miles on it. Unfortunately, as a tall person at 6'5
Casimir Torp 2024-09-25

The new 2015 F150 is quite different from the older models. Unfortunately, my experience with it has been less than ideal. Despite my efforts to adjust for payload size, road conditions, and other factors, the truck has proven to be unreliable and unsafe to drive. I have experienced frequent and unexpected shifting, which has caused dangerous situations in traffic. While Ford initially attributed this to the system tracking my driving habits, it was later discovered that there was a short in the transmission wiring harness. Although this was fixed, the problems have persisted. I have also had issues with the brakes, which occasionally grab and make noise, and the fuel saver auto start, which blew through the starter in under 6 months. Additionally, the sync and bluetooth systems have been problematic and require frequent restarting or reprogramming. Despite these issues, I remain hopeful that Ford will be able to address these concerns and improve the overall safety and reliability of their vehicles.

Positive 2015 Ford F-150 car reviews

Anibal Smitham 2025-02-14

I traded my 2013 which had what I think were HID headlights. They were so bright that when they were on at night, the area lit up was stunning. However, this truck has halogen lights which are terrible, and I am being generous. For some unknown reason, Ford has decided to eliminate the HID and replace it with weak LED. My salesman told me this and he is trying to find out if there is a replacement kit. I am completely disappointed with these headlamps.
Evans Wolff 2025-01-27

I absolutely love my 2015 F-150! The Ford engineers really outdid themselves with the redesign of this truck. From the high-tech aluminum body to the engine choices, it's clear that this is one impressive machine. The 5.0L engine is a huge improvement over the 5.4 in my previous truck and it sounds amazing too! The interior is top-notch and designed with both comfort and practicality in mind. It's clear that this is a workhorse disguised as a luxury vehicle. I've always been a loyal Ford truck owner and my last F-150 lasted me an impressive 14 years with no major issues. I just had to upgrade to the 2015 model and I have no doubt that it will last me just as long, if not longer. UPDATE: It's been 2 1/2 years since I bought it and I'm still absolutely in love with this truck. It has been completely flawless and I haven't had to take it back to the dealer since the day I brought it home!
Nels Luettgen 2025-01-22

. The 2015 King Ranch SCREW 4x4 Off Road has been a great truck for me, with only a few minor issues. Recently, at around 160,100 miles, I noticed the truck idling roughly at traffic lights or stop signs, especially after running down the highway at highway speeds. After researching online, I suspected that the VCT (Variable Cam Timing) solenoid(s) might be the culprit. Unfortunately, my truck never threw a code, and many repair shops were hesitant to attempt repairs without one. Eventually, the engine reached a point where the issue could be diagnosed without a code. I had all 4 VCT solenoids replaced, new spark plugs installed, and an oil change, and now the truck runs perfectly again. While the symptoms of the problem resembled ignition issues or bad gasoline, it turns out VCT solenoids are oil pressure sensitive. I have always changed my oil regularly at 5,000 mile intervals, but the symptoms in my engine became more noticeable as my engine neared the 5,000 mile interval. Except for factory maintenance and consumables like brakes, shocks, a battery, a K & N air filter, and an upper radiator hose, this is the first mechanical issue I've had with the Coyote engine. Given that it took over 160,000 miles and has run perfectly for the 500 miles after the solenoids were replaced, I still feel this is the best truck I've ever had. My mechanic reported that there was no sludge or varnish buildup under the valve covers, and the top end of the engine was clean. All of the remaining bells & whistles on the King Ranch still function perfectly. That F150 has been a hell of a truck. The 2015 King Ranch SCREW 4x4 is now at 186,000 miles, and it still runs perfectly and all functions perform perfectly. I did have an issue with the oil pan, but it was quickly resolved.I took my car in for an oil change and mentioned to my mechanic that we might have to chase the threads on the pan. Unfortunately, the pan was too thin-walled to chase the thread, so I had to get a new oil pan installed. But now, there are no more leaks or issues!
Kyleigh Terry 2025-01-21

This truck has been through a lot, but it still runs like a dream even after 167k miles. It has towed heavy loads, gone off-roading on challenging roads, and even carried 2000lbs worth of bricks in the bed, all without any issues. Although the cam phasers were replaced at 150k, it has been extremely reliable otherwise. With an aftermarket tune, it runs 13.6 in the 1/4 mile and gets 20mpg. I'm sure it will last another -67k.
Timmy Treutel 2024-11-29

This is my work truck. Although the regular cab has limited storage space, the center seat folds down to create a convenient armrest with cup holders. The 3.5 NA V6 engine may seem unimpressive at first, but once it hits over 3,000 rpm, it really takes off! It performs quite well, and I can only imagine how much better the turbo models are. While the truck has started to make some creaking noises (which I've also read about on other forums), it has been reliable overall. The mileage hasn't been great, with only around 16 mpg in the city and 23.5 mpg on the highway being my best. I did have a couple of issues with it shutting down, but the throttle body was replaced and it has been fine since. I've hit 26 mpg on a long trip, but usually end up in the 21 mpg range for shorter trips. I haven't had any reason to use the 4x4 system yet, but it's good to know it's there if I need it. The Leer cap has had some fit and finish issues, but that's not Ford's fault. Overall, my 2019 F150 4x4 Reg Cab Truck has been a good, no-frills work truck, although the mileage could be better.
