Problem overview

Some Ford F-150 owners report experiencing oil leaks due to common issues such as worn-out gaskets, damaged oil pans, or faulty seals, with symptoms including oil spots under the vehicle, low oil levels, or a burning oil smell. Additionally, some owners find that their AC system does not blow cold air, often attributed to refrigerant leaks, compressor malfunctions, clogged filters, or electrical problems. Insufficient refrigerant levels are frequently cited as a cause for inadequate cooling, while a malfunctioning AC compressor can hinder proper refrigerant pressurization. Furthermore, some owners may need to replace their armrest or repair the headliner, requiring the correct replacement parts for proper fit and restoration of their vehicle's interior. It is advisable for owners to consult with a professional mechanic or authorized service center to accurately diagnose and resolve these issues, as regular maintenance and timely repairs are essential for ensuring the longevity and performance of the Ford F-150.
