2021 Ford F-150 recalled again...this time over defective driveshafts that can disconnect

A Ford F-150 driveshaft recall includes more than 5,800 trucks equipped with two-piece driveshafts that could disconnect and cause a sudden loss of drive power.
The 2021 F-150 trucks could also roll away when parked without the parking brakes engaged.
Ford says the supplier may have improperly secured the c-clip connection between the two driveshaft halves.
Warranty claims were arriving regarding the two-piece driveshafts where the c-clips had not been properly installed. Ford learned the driveshaft supplier allowed certain driveshaft assemblies to bypass automated verification.
Not quite as dangerous as the Honda Accord recall around the steering issue, but it's pretty bad for an OT favorite pickup truck that's already seen issues around electronics, battery drain, and premature rust.

It's Ford. Not like they have a lot of power to lose.

I didn't think they had built any that actually run yet this year.

I had the same issue on my 2013 Platinum.
I brought it in telling them it was a driveshaft sound.
A entire new rear end later, they replaced the driveshaft. Problem solved
idiots.
Anyway, it was a known issue then as well.

It's a good thing they aren't screwing up a product that's critical to the company's survival.
Oh wait.

I have a 2017 F150. I've never had a single issue with it. It had a few recalls that took all of 2 hrs to fix.

Wow, the Mythbusters tested a myth like this where the detached driveshaft hit a pot hole and launched the car. Ford is a mess right now. They better hope the Bronco has a flawless launch.

Ford is going to shite. Electric mustang and moving to Mexico ? Good riddance.

Seems like a basic problem not to have. Union labor at it's finest.

Been looking at trading in my GMC for a Ford but can't find a reasonable deal. Think I am just going to keep her and have a tune done to smooth out the transmission.
