2013 FORD F-150 Vehicle Speed Control Problems

I was driving about 55 mph when suddenly my 2013 truck down shifted to either first or third gear and I barely was able to control it to get off the road. The truck just bowed up and the vehicle behind me almost hit me. The speedometer stopped working and a wrench icon appeared. I tried to take off and the truck was stuck in third gear. Ford dealership said they would fix it if it was the OSS sensor. I paid to have it towed and they charged me over 2,000. There was a safety recall 24S37 on the 2014 with the 6R80 transmission the same kind my truck has. My 2013 did exactly the same thing as the 2014 and I believe it should have a safety recall. There was a extended warranty or something either 10 years or 150,000. My truck has 130,000. I talked to Ford customer satisfaction but they have done nothing. I told them I was going to report it.

Driving 70 mph on highway. Transmission suddenly downshifted from 6th to 5th. Cruise control turned off. Speedometer went to 0 mph. Airbag warning light came on. Wrench indicator flashed. From this point on, transmission would only use gears 3,4,5. Speedometer continued to read 0. Cruise control remained inoperative and Airbag warning light remained on. Wrench indicator turned off after a few minutes. Was able to limp home, but truck had difficulty pulling out from stoplights and stop signs due to not being able to shift below 3rd gear. After shutting off ignition and restarting. Operation returned to normal.

Driving on Interstate Highway. Entered a tunnel at 65 MPH. Near the end of the tunnel traffic started to slow down. I applied the brakes and the engine started to accelerate. I had full pressure on the brake pedal but the vehicle kept accelerating. There was a loud fan noise. Fortunately the vehicles ahead started to accelerate up to the speed limit - and beyond. I took my foot off the brake and turned on cruise control. The fan sound stopped and the truck maintained cruise control setting. I had heard the fan speed up twice before but I was parking each time1 and turned off the engine within seconds of hearing the fan motor speed up. I returned to my home and heard the fan motor speed up once more. I took the vehicle in to my local Service Station. They were able to recreate the problem. "Bad thermostat causing engine cooling fan to come, increasing idle speed. Replaced thermostat"

Took vehicle to dealership to have recall 19V075 completed. Dealership informed me that Ford motor company will only replace the Multi- Frame part in the transmission that contains the OSS sensor if the vehicle is not older than 10yrs and 150,000 miles. The service advisor at the dealership informed me that if they perform the PCM program update without the mechanical repair being done the intermittent downshift problem would get worse. The truck has downshifted while going down the highway at approximately 60mph and the abrupt downshift nearly caused me to loose control of the vehicle.

I was sold a 2013 Ford F150 XLT with a serious documented safety issue. The issue is a Transmission Molded Lead Frame failure. This specific component defect is classified as a known, safety-critical issue by Ford (Customer Satisfaction Program 19N01). The car dealership that sold me this vehicle is Township Auto Line 442 Delsea Drive Sewell, NJ 08080. I was able to get the truck repaired, however the business that sold me the Truck is unwilling to reimburse me for the repairs for the safety-critical Molded Lead Frame repair. This is a matter of selling a vehicle with a known, active safety hazard. I can provide the Ford repair invoice upon request to verify the diagnosis and repair cost.

Transmission shifted into 1st gear while doing 65 mph on the freeway. The rear tires locked up as a result and the truck spun out in front of on coming traffic putting myself and my 6 month old nephew in a life threatening situation. This is not okay. I was told the most recent recall done on this vehicle was done to not allow this to happen. This issue has been an on going problem with these trucks and Ford has still yet to rectify the problem. This can cause serious bodily harm to myself and others around these vehicles. I feel Ford needs to do something about this issue.

There have been multiple problems with the leadframe in the 6r80 model of transmission. I have had my speedometer go out and cause the truck to shift into 1st gear causing my wheels to lock up while im driving 60mph down the highway. Ford states on the campaign to be eligible it must be under 10 years or 150000 miles whichever comes first of the customer satisfaction program but i believe it should be considered a saftey recall. The vehicles should be eligible for this program well beyond 10 years for safety reasons. In the winter it will be even more hazardous. Myself or someone else could die due to the wheels locking up. I have researched and found many others with the same issue and this should be escalated to a proper safety recall rather than a csp.

Vechicle shuts off during high speeds causing driver to loose control and driver and passengers to be tossed around even while constrained with seat belts

the speed sensor in transmission isn't working properly it shift down to 1st gear as shown in these recalls 19S07,19S19,AND 24S37. IM NOT SURE IF IT IS RELATED TO 19N01 in any way but the problem was that its showing on my vin that they conducted a recall 19S07 ON MY 2012 F-150 IN THE Past but then after that there was a 19S19 recalled ADDED because the prior 19s07 didn't work properly or hold up ,so what that meant was they should have made it aware to all vehicles that was performed with this reprogramming recall but they did not send any notification or make available to my f150 especially knowing the reprograming didn't hold up, so I was never granted access or authorization and notified that it need to be re done . also the problem I noticed says its with the software in 19s19 and 19s07 but this seems more like a speed sensor problem that's indicated in 24s37 and that seems to be a hardware issue ,if u look into this issue on line you'll notice the fix for this issue is for the sensor to be replaced in the transmission . I feel that ford should be responsible for the issue with my f150 .

While driving my vehicle speedometer goes to zero which no recognition of speed. If brought to a stop I can’t get out of first gear. Ford issued a “Customer Satisfaction Program 19N01” related to the 6R80 transmissions, Sudden Transmission Downshift. This “Customer Satisfaction” should have been a non expiring recall. The check engine sometimes flicks on but does not stay on or show a code. Issue is intermittent and lasts 10-15 min until vehicle recognizes it’s not incapable of shifting. Given this severely limiting malfunction I highly recommend the recall be extended indefinitely to make sure these vehicles are fixed properly.

While driving at highway speeds, about 55mph, transmission just jerked. Happened multiple times until I could get it in to be serviced. Service light comes on, speedometer goes to zero, safety lights come on and its not able to downshift. I fear this could be a very dangerous especially at this speeds.. After stopping and turning of the road it still would not reset. It would not reset until I parked the vehicle and shutdown then restarted. Picture attached shows the dash..... while going 55 speedometer went to zero. Was in 5 gear and would not change, mileage went to "--------" Engine light and Airbag lights come on...... NHTSA site shows no recalls but Ford does show their own recall. Ford will not cover this repair because they said they notified of a recall but nothing was ever sent to me or told to me in any previous trips to dealership. This is a known safety risk and Ford should still be pushing to get these parts replaced. Fords Campaign after to search online. 19N01 Description Transmission molded leadframe

TRANSMISSION DOWNSHIFTS WHILE DRIVING TRANSMISSION STAYS IN FIRST GEAR TRANSMISSION BANGS WRENCH APPEARS ON DASH ALL CONTROL IS LOST

F150 downshifted into first gear while driving down the highway at full speed. Speedometer stopped registering. Sudden and abrupt deceleration. Engine warning light on. Took the truck to the local Ford dealer, Malloy Ford Charlottesville, VA and Service department said the molded leadframe needed to be replaced per Customer Satifaction Program (CSP) 19N01, but Ford would not cover the cost. I believe that Ford needs to cover the cost. I never received a letter notification from Ford and had it in service at the same dealer in August 2022 and they did not notify me of the outstanding CSP and need to service per 19N01.

My 2013 F150 had been acting strangely in showing a wrench on the LED screen and shutting off the electrical components on my dash. when this happens, it also sticks the transmission in between 3-5th gear. I am unable to shift down to 1st or 2nd gear, or up to 6th gear. After this happened a few times, it started to shift me in to Park and stop my wheels from turning. This happened to me 3 times while traveling down the highway at 80mph. All 3 times, it lasted only a few seconds, but it was enough to screech my brand new tires and leave marks on the ground as if I had slammed on my brakes. It returns to normal and continues down the road.

My 2013 has the same transmission problem of an unexpected downshift to 1st gear while driving at highway speeds as the newer model year F150’s. I would like to see all F150’s with that model transmission (6R80) included into the recall. I believe this would include 2011 through 2018 model years.

The faulty output shaft speed sensor (OSS) causes a signal loss between the sensor and the powertrain control module (PCM), leading to a sudden downshift into first gear, regardless of the vehicle's speed. This sudden downshift can cause the rear tires to slide, potentially leading to a loss of control and an increased risk of a crasH. There is already a recall for the 2014 Models and my 2013 is having the exact same issue. This has been an ongoing problem since I bought the truck in December 2024

The Ford F150 has suddenly downshifted at highway speed and gone into limp mode. A maintance light shows momentarlly. I am working with local Ford dealerships to have the issue addressed. They suggest that it may be addressed under a field campaign that has expired. The sudden downshift and limp mode is a safety issue in traffic. The problem happens then goes away.

2013 Ford F150 speed control issues. When driving the vehicle will downshift hard. Thankfully I was not driving at higher speeds. The vehicle is available for inspection. The problem has been confirmed by a Ford dealership. I was told by the service manager that the truck was having the symptoms of the recall 19S07, but that the “recall has expired.” There were no warning lights prior to the problem. A wrench symbol appeared on my dash screen when the truck downshifted. I spoke with Ford customer support and they said there was no recall.

The faulty output shaft speed sensor (OSS) causes a signal loss between the sensor and the powertrain control module (PCM), leading to a sudden downshift into first gear, regardless of the vehicle's speed.

There is already a recall for the 2014 Models and my 2013 is having the exact same issue.

Safety issue. Engine code P0720 which means the output speed sensor sends erratic signals to the power train module or PCM. There is a recall on this truck for this exact thing. What happens is the gears in the transmission don’t shift smoothly and what happened to me was I was driving 70mph all of sudden the truck made a loud bang and I was in 6th gear and the truck went from being in 6th gear just dropped into 1st gear and at 70mph it’s pretty frightening. The brakes locked up and i managed to stay calm and regain control of the vehicle and pull over. Immediately I seen a big yellow wrench on the dashboard along with the check engine light so I turned it off and restarted it thinking maybe the computer will reset. The truck is literally stuck in like 3rd or 4th gear because I can’t go past 40 mph. I was only 5 mins away from home as soon as I got home I use my code machine and the engine code I received was P0720. I contacted my Larsen Ford in Lakewood NJ they informed me about the recall but told me that they’re not paying for any repairs because it’s past 10 years. It ended in January of 2024. I didn’t buy the truck until July 2024 I had no idea about any recalls. I’m not the original owner. I just assumed since it’s a safety issue that the manufacturer must be responsible for all repairs regardless of how long it’s been. I bought the truck with only 38,000 miles on it presently it has 40,000 miles on it now but I don’t think it’s fair that I have to pay for everything to be fixed myself.

Dear NHTSA, I am writing to report a serious and potentially life-threatening safety issue with my 2013 Ford F-150. I recently experienced a sudden and dangerous failure while driving on the freeway, which nearly caused a major accident. After doing some research, I discovered that this issue was previously addressed under a Ford Customer Satisfaction Program, but the coverage period has since expired. This is a common and well-documented issue among 2013 F-150 owners, and it is unacceptable that Ford has not issued a full recall. Just because the program has expired does not mean the risk has. In my case, the issue escalated to a near-death situation, and I’m extremely concerned that this will happen to someone else—if it hasn't already. I urge NHTSA to investigate this further and hold Ford accountable. There is no reason such a serious safety defect should go unresolved simply because the time window has closed. A dangerous defect is still dangerous, regardless of the date. Please let me know what steps I can take to further assist with this report or if you need additional documentation. I hope this can help prevent future tragedies. Sincerely, [XXX] [XXX] VIN: [XXX] INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)

Truck dropped into lower gears without notice from high speed (and at low speeds). Engine revs and actually speeds up without foot on gas pedal without warning. Speedometer will stop working when this happens also. Almost caused accident. Other similar vehicles from 2013-2019 are in recall for similar issues. Ford won't fix and says it is not an issue for this vehicle.

Truck has been thrown into limp mode multiple times with codes P0720 and P0722 being thrown per OBD scanner. Turning the truck off and on gets rid of the wrench and check engine light and allows the transmission to work normally again. The first two times were on acceleration, months apart. It now does this consistently at highway speeds so I am unable to take it on busy roads, the last time I was on the interstate I was going below traffic speed with hazards on until the exit because the truck slowed from 80 to 40. It couldn't get up the ramp after pulling off so I took side roads home. As far as I can tell this is associated with customer satisfaction program 19N01 and Ford sold these trucks with a faulty lead frame. The truck is 12 yrs 120k miles instead of the 10 yr 100k warranty Ford offered for this part specifically, I don't see how the age makes a difference if Ford has admitted to using faulty parts in the transmission already

Vehicle dash lights will come on while driving (wrench light specifically) and vehicle looses all power and drops to 0 RPM 0 Speed. This has happened multiple times and is extremely dangerous! After 4 months, we finally got our appointment at a Ford dealership where they diagnosed the lead frame needs to be replaced. Truck is a 2013 Ford F150 with 114,000 miles and there is a bulletin for this concern but the truck is out of warranty by age. The total bill is $1,769.54 and I contacted Ford to see if they would help for customer satisfaction and was told no.

I have had a problem with the transmission molded lead frame 19N01 it also shows a wrench when this problem occurs. This caused my vehicle to not show the speed limit of my vehicle. It also caused my vehicle not be able to accelerate. I then worried about this problem due to this incident was on the highway and almost caused a crash.

My wife was driving my truck and the gear light came on the dash. The truck went into limp mode in the middle of traffic and about caused her to get hit from behind. I took the truck to Long Lewis Ford in Prattville Alabama and was told that I was a year out of warranty for the recall that is on the transmission for my truck. Ford knows they had issues with 2013 F150's but now they do not want to fix my transmission. So I have to spend $800 to 1k on fixing my transmission when Ford knew they have an issue and are willing to let people drive unsafe vehicles.

Ford recalled 107,850 2013 Ford F-150 trucks with 5.0-liter or 6.2-liter engines due to a transmission issue. The recall was issued on June 10, 2019, with the recall number 19V433000. The transmission could unexpectedly shift into first gear, regardless of the vehicle's speed This could cause a loss of vehicle control and increase the risk of a crash I took the truck to Ford to fix and they did not fix the issue after saying they did and confirming there was an issue. This appeared 2 months ago and since then I have been getting the run around from ford.

The contact owns a 2013 Ford 150. The contact stated while driving at an undisclosed speed, the accelerator pedal was depressed; however, the vehicle failed to accelerate as intended. In addition, the contact stated that the air bags and the check engine warning light were illuminated. The vehicle was driven to the shoulder of the road. The contact turned the vehicle off and allowed the vehicle to sit for several minutes. The vehicle was restarted, and the system reset independently. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired by an independent mechanic or the dealer. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure but did not assist. The contact was advised to contact the NHTSA Hotline to report the failure. The failure mileage was 102,000.

Trying to take off from a parking spot the truck would not shift from first gear. The exact same thing has happened about four or five more time since the first always in the same manner. One time it shifted into third gear and stuck there. When this happens the dash cluster does not read anything. it just shows what gear it is in. No rpm, no speed.

The contact owns a 2013 Ford F-150. The contact stated while driving at 55 MPH the wrench symbol illuminated and the vehicle lost motive power and went into LIMP Mode. The contact coasted to the side of the road and turned off and restarted the vehicle and the vehicle returned to normal functionality. The failure occurred a total of three times; however, during the third failure, the check engine light illuminated. The vehicle was taken to the dealer who diagnosed the vehicle and determined that the output speed sensor module had failed and needed to be replaced. The dealer informed the contact of an undisclosed Customer Satisfaction Program however, the 10-year limitation had been exceeded. The vehicle had not been repaired. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure. The manufacturer transferred the contact to the NHTSA Hotline to report the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 147,000.

Mileage: 147,000

Vehicle was going around 55 mph and dropped out of gear and into limp mode or 1st gear. Happened yesterday as well around 55 mph with cruise control on. Used a scan tool and no codes given.

1 WAS DRIVING 55 MPH & IT LOCKED UP ON ME SHIFTED INTO 1ST GEAR & IS NOW STUCK IN 1ST GEAR. I ALMOSTED WRECKED LUCKELY I WASN'T FAR FROM HOME & IT'S BEEN PARKED SINCE.

Driving on the highway and suddenly lost total power. RPMs dropped to zero, speedometer dropped to zero. Truck attempted to downshift immediately and caused the truck to jerk aggressively. All dashboard readings disappeared, mileage, etc. Wrench displayed on screen and airbag sensor lit up. Sudden downshifting of the vehicle and jerking could have caused a wreck or loss of control of the vehicle. Potential injury to passengers/children in vehicle. Pulled on side of road and turned off the vehicle. Restarted it with no lights on dash and gauges back to normal. "Limped" truck to the Ford dealership for inspection and it was confirmed to be the Lead Frame Sensor by stored code reading.

I was traveling on the highway at a speed of 70 mph, when out of nowhere my truck downshifted to first gear; causing me to swerve to the side of the road. I had my vehicle towed to a shop where I was informed it was a module for the transmission and lead case which caused the malfunction. Upon doing the research I learned that it was a recall from the plant which my truck came from. Had repairs done at the tune of $5320.00. Also was told by a consumer service representative that I qualified for reimbursement, but then was told that my vehicle was not part of the recall which specifically displayed the exact symptoms and malfunctions of said recall-24S37.

I took my 2013 Ford F150 in on Feb. 15, 2019 due to a recall. They reprogrammed the software, only took a few minutes. This is recall #19S07. It was due to the truck possibly shifting from any gear into first gear suddenly. Very dangerous. I did not have that problem before or since the recall until one week ago. Pulling onto the highway, RPM's went very high (3500-4000) even though I was only going est. 25 MPH. My speedometer showed "0". This problem comes and goes and now I feel completely unsafe driving my truck. I contacted Ford customer service and I do not think they will fix this unless I cover the tab. I feel that this is unfair. I have taken it in and left it all day but they did not get to it, my local Ford dealer is out until mid November for service. My truck now gets stuck in first gear or downshifts into first gear and the instrument display goes wacky, no speedometer, etc. I noticed a green wrench icon light up yesterday when this happened. Over 1.2 million F-150's had this problem. Over 100,000 trucks did not receive the proper PCU reprogram and need new reprogramming. I believe my truck is one of these as I am now having the exact issues that the recall was supposed to solve. Fortunately, I have not been travelling at high speeds when this happens but this problem can cause the transmission to shift from any gear at any speed into first gear, which could be life threatening. According to Ford, it is the powertrain control module software that causes this problem. Trucks built at Dearborn Assembly Plant, 4/28, 2010 to 10/28, 2013 and Kansas City Assembly Plant, 5/18, 2010 to 11/18, 2013 have this problem. My truck's manufacture date is March 2013 so it falls into both of these timeframes. I feel that this is a severe safety issue and could result in serious injury or even death. I think that because the 2019 service recall did not solve the issue, since my truck has these exact things going on with it, Ford is responsible. Thnx

Upon getting a recall done for the OSS downshift my truck has been acting up. While in motion at about 40 mph yesterday my truck automatically downshifted into 1st gear. My tires skid and it jerked me really hard. I though I had hit something. If someone was behind me at that moment or I was going faster it could have caused a wreck. The transmission also does not shift out of 1st gear sometimes after stopping at a light or stop sign. This could cause a wreck also as I can't go over 5-10 mph as the RPMS redline because it will not shift. I can put it in manual mode and shift it sometimes but not always. Occasionally it will not shift past 3rd gear. Since the recall has been done the tech added Campaign 19N01. Upon calling the dealership that did the repair in Memphis TN they stated it had nothing to do with the recall (not sure how they can determine that without looking at it) and it sounded like I was having transmission problems. They are 4 months out for transmission repairs, so even if I wanted to pay for the repair and not try to go through the recall or extended warranty I cant for MONTHS! My engine light is on but have not had the codes ran. The Ford forum... [XXX] all states the same issues I am having. This seems to be a common occurrence and if your vehicle is out of the warranty or had already been done then you are on your own. The forum is stating it is the lead frame or output speed sensor on the transmission that is the issue. I have had so many issues with this FORD its ridiculous. My timing chain exploded as well and I had to purchase a complete new motor. This is a common failure with this model /motor Ford trucks. It also shows a wrench on the dash and the speedometer quits working and mileage, MPG and others just show dashes. Need a resolution from FORD so the customers do not have to fork the bill for THEIR faulty PARTS! INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)

Periodically tachometer revs, speedometer and odometer stops working, and the Powertrain Malfunction/Reduced Power/Electronic Throttle Control as well as the Service Engine Soon lights come on. Sometimes will reset when stopped, and the vehicle is turned off for about ten seconds before turning back on.

The shift 3ª to 4ª are hit

There's been a very dangerous situation with my truck without any warning, lose all info with it's gauges on the instrument panel and the truck losing power with speed and the transmission locking up or not shifting gears and this causes the vehicles rpm to rev up extremely high to a 4 then sometimes a hard shift can be felt at times . This is creating a very dangerous condition on the highway when speeds are at 75 when without any warning it does this and the truck has felt like it was going to flip due to these problems when they happen or other vehicles are also in danger when the truck slows drastically in front of them while behind me. There's been a recall previously I've noticed on this truck regarding a code that I've been able to get on it when it happens and its PO720 . There was a recall on this truck in 2019 that calls for a replacement of the molded lead frame which describes everything I just mentioned to you above BUT, this recall excluded covering rental vehicles (due to their inventory of parts) and low and behold I've just found out that my truck had been a rental vehicle in its past and during this period of the recall. I've notified the lienholder and Ford Motor Company of my issues and have gotten no help as to how I feel they are responsible for this fix and I think that either they should be made to repair any vehicle ,rental or not, either way its a very bad situation which risks peoples lives. And if by some chance this truck did get the repair that was recalled back then , then I believe those parts are faulty as well and Ford needs to do another recall on this truck before an accident happens and someone gets badly injured or killed by it.

Truck downshifts when trying to increase speed. Truck will not shift into all gears, the check engine light comes on, the speed odometer goes to zero and the miles per gallon screen goes blank. All these items happen at the same time while driving. Today the truck wouldn’t take off. I had to shift gears manually to drive it with the console gear shift +/- buttons

Driving down the highway fling 55 mph and truck shifts into 1st gear and almost makes me wreck. Part previously under recall but Ford says they will not fix. Original recall 19n01. Shut off vehicle and turned back on. I thought everything was normal but then a mild down the road the truck would not shift out of 3rd gear. This is a safety issue. I'm afraid to drive because of the chance of wrecking. During the entire time the odometer and speedometer both show zero so guessing speed.

Hello, on my 2013 ford f150, why driving the vehicle will at random shift from 5th gear to 1st gear, creating a massive loss of power and forcing me to loose speed rapidly. This puts my self, my family and those around me in danger. I have reached online that there is a current recall for 2014 models that do this, but not 2013 models. This seems outrageous to me. This is just as much of a safety concern. Why discriminate between the two years.

I had all the recalls done to my vehicle that pertains to a problem with my vehicle suddenly shifting to first gear at freeway speeds. This was done about two years ago. On July 7th, 2024 my vehicle suddenly shifted to first gear while traveling at a rate of 55 miles per hour. My rear tires suddenly locked up and I lost control of my vehicle. Luckily I avoided an accident. I’m reporting this information because Ford’s recall to this problem did not solve the issue and this can cause accidents.

AN INTERMITTENT FAILURE OF THE OUTPUT SPEED SENSOR (OSS) IN THE TRANSMISSION MAY RESULT IN AN UNINTENDED DOWNSHIFT TO FIRST GEAR.

I was driving at 70 mph on the highway and my transmission automatically downshifted locking up my rear wheels twice nearly causing me to lose control. I was able to pull off the highway safely and get into a parking lot and turn off and restart my truck. I was able to make it to my destination on city streets, but with similar issues at lower speeds. I took my truck to have its codes checked and the diagnosis was a failed lead frame. I called Ford and they said the extended warranty on this part was expired on my truck by 2 months. The fact that there is a not an automatic recall on this part on 2013 models is kind of scary knowing what I went through on the highway. I have since had the lead frame replaced and the issue is resolved.

2013 f150 truck wouldn’t get out of first gear from stop light, wrench light came on, speed odometer stayed at 0 miles. Took to ford dealership to have recall 19S07 done and was told this would not fix it, (needed a fix that was no longer offered bc I’m past 10 years mark) they did the recall and now the truck jerks when shifting gears and downshifts to first from any speed

Would be driving at about 55-60 mph on the interstate and the truck would drop into first gear slamming me forward almost causing an accident twice !!!! Not including the whiplash it gives you!

When traveling on road and want to speed up to get on freeway, change lanes, or simple speed up I lose power shift and it goes from 6 to 4 or 3 in gears and I can't accelerate which has almost caused many accidents. The check engine signal will only blink right when it's happening and loose speed and the AC air flow will get warm until it corrects itself after I either slow down or shut truck off completely. But always happens when you accelerate at any time.

My vehicle has had two instances on the highway where the vehicle abruptly downshifted from 6th gear down to 1st and the other time down to third. I took it to Ford and they said it was the speed sensor however they said it was not a recall. I see all these recalls on 2013 f150’s but not mine?? Why?? Im having the same issue.

My truck will downshift on its own, i.e., I’m doing 65 mph on the highway in 6th gear and it will suddenly downshift to 1st, 2nd or 3rd gear, causing my back tires to spin out, I almost lose control of the truck and I lose speed quickly when other vehicles all around me are still doing 65 mph or more. The truck has also failed to shift out of first gear at all, the speedometer needle does not move at all and the truck will not shift up when I’m trying to accelerate. This is a danger to me and to all drivers around me. Ford is aware of this problem, the issue is a faulty lead frame assembly and it needs to be replaced. They issued a recall that called for a PCM reprogramming - a reprogramming of the PCM module was supposedly going to fix the issue with a faulty lead frame assembly! Crazy, it clearly did not as I had the PCM reprogrammed and the truck is still acting crazy due to the faulty lead frame assembly that Ford refuses to replace at their expense. It’s a $200 part!!

The contact owns a 2013 Ford F-150. The contact stated while driving 70 MPH, the contact noticed a failure with the accelerator pedal wherein the accelerator pedal failed to engage properly. There was no warning light illuminated. The vehicle was taken to the dealer where it was diagnosed but was not disclosed. The dealer replaced the throttle body. The vehicle was repaired. The contact stated he was concerned that the vehicle was unsafe and could cause severe injuries if the failure persisted. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 156,000.

Mileage: 156,000

The vehicle randomly shifts to first gear while driving at 30-45 MPH. The behavior is dangerous - in one case it caused me to lose control of my vehicle; in another, I was nearly rear ended. I was then forced to stop driving until I could have the car repaired. I paid to have the lead frame fixed. I’m told there was an extended warranty issued by Ford for this issue; however, because I drive my vehicle less frequently, I was months removed from the 10-year extended warranty threshold. For an issue as dangerous as this (and from my understanding is one that occurs somewhat frequently), I’m surprised a recall wasn’t issued!

The truck is unexpectedly downshifting to first exactly as the safety recall states .at this This happened while my son was driving the truck the attached picture shows the errors on the dash at the time and also the speedometer read zero when the truck was in motion. Tooele ford claims the safety recall was completed , however nhtsa website states it is an unresolved recall. Tooele ford and ford customer service refused to remedy the situation.

truck speedometer goes to 0. Slows down abruptly. Rpm goes way up. Was going from 45 to less than 10mph in a matter of seconds. Feels like the transmission automatically downshifts to a lower gear. Very dangerous. Seems to be quite a few of these incidents on you tube. Truck only has 11600 miles on it.

I was driving on the highway going 70MPH in 6th gear. Myself, my wife, and my 6th month old son were on our way to a doctors appointment when in the middle lane on the highway my truck decided to completely downshift into 1st gear. With doing so my truck locked up and I lost control of the vehicle almost colliding with a semi. I was very lucky to not have wrecked and got onto the shoulder safely where I had no power to my vehicle. I got it towed to a dealership and after paying out of pocket for a diagnostic they found that my truck had a recall with the oss sensor on the transmission witch caused significant engine and transmission damage resulting in $18,000.00 to fix. Apparently the warranty expires 10 years or 150k miles which my truck has surpassed both. I wasn’t warned about any recall or found any recall there was no damage or signs of damage to the truck prior to this incident.

My 2013 F150 downshifted abruptly from 5th to 1st gear going 55. This caused me to stop dangerously and abruptly. It then got stuck in 1st gear. I turned off truck and restarted and it was stuck in 3rd gear. I did have a check engine light read which were codes: P0720/p0721/p0720 pointing to the output shaft speed sensor. I had Ford dealership TSB performed in 2020 to reprogram PCM to prevent this from happening, wrench icon showed a long with airbag light and dashboard quit working all except RPM gauge. The first time this abrupt downshift occurred was today February 21, 2024. Seems like a very dangerous safety issue and the dealership has no regards to it and said they are booked out and it would be $150 to look into it.

While in motion, the wrench on the dash lights up and the truck downshifts. It matches the description that goes with the recall for the speed sensor and the truck being reprogrammed. The symptoms, the truck info, the assembly plant and date all fit the recall but it's not on the recall list.

Component or system failure or malfunction: Delayed or no gear shifting. Transmission sudden downshift at low and high speeds, and failure to shift into lower or higher gear at takeoff, and/or while in motion. Safety risk: Sudden downshift at high speed caused stability and control issue at highway speed. The problem has been reproduced by owner and discussed with dealer by phone. The vehicle has not yet been inspected by manufacturer, police, insurance representatives or others. No warning lamps, messages or other symptoms of the problem appeared prior to the failure. A large wrench display appeared on dash at the moment of failure and reoccurs with each failure. Some dash displays zero out and/or disappear. The speedometer drops to zero and fails thereafter to register. Transmission shifting becomes random and sudden or fails entirely. Manuals shifting is sometimes possible and other times not possible. Manual shifting all the way to gear 3, followed by a mild acceleration occasionally causes the speedometer to resume function. Subsequent switching to automatic shift is then possible and automatic shifting functions initially or for varied lengths of time.  Failure produces OBD code P0720 related to workings and overall condition of the output speed sensor circuit.

We are having downshifting issues and the speed is randomly changing. The truck came to a stop while still driving. The speedometer doesn’t reflect accurate to the truck speed.

My 2013 Ford F-150 recently began experiencing transmission shifting problems. As I accelerated from a dead stop, the transmission would not shift out of first gear. The only short term remedy was to pull over to the side of the road, turn off the ignition, wait for 60 seconds and restart the engine. This worked sometimes, sometimes not. I understand there had been a 2011 thru 2013 Ford F-150 transmission recall in 2019 for identical circumstances. I submitted my VIN to check on whether it had been recalled, only to find it was not among those listed, even though the faulty shifting circumstances were identical to descriptions in the 2019 recall matter. A visit to the local Ford dealership left me without an answer, as I was told they currently had no transmission mechanic. Out of an abundance of caution, I took the truck to a local transmission repair service with a description of my problem and request for an evaluation. The service request resulted in confirmation of a faulty speed sensor, which yielded a fault code of PO722-00 (Output Shaft Speed Sensor Circuit No Signal). The Lead Frame was replaced as a result. Again, I believe my circumstances were identical to those being reported by other 2011 to 2013 Ford F-150 truck owners , on or before the 2019 recall, yet my VIN did not match the recall order. I'm sending along this description of my circumstance, requesting consideration for inclusion of my VIN as part of the 2019 recall of 2011-2013 Ford F-150 with this faulty Speed Sensor/ Lead Frame issue.

The contact owns a 2013 Ford F-150. The contact stated while driving 25 MPH, the vehicle started jerking and failed to accelerate as needed while the accelerator pedal was being depressed. The contact also heard an abnormal sound coming from the vehicle. The check engine warning light was illuminated. The vehicle was diagnosed with wheel speed sensor failure. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure and confirmed that the vehicle was not included in a recall. The failure mileage was approximately 150,000.

Mileage: 150,000

As you are driving the vehicle will randomly down shift into first gear, causing the vehicle to potentially slam into first while in mid drive almost as if you hit a wall, this causes the vehicle to lose any information on the dash including speedometer. There are no warning lamps on prior to incident. Took it to a dealer to have it diagnosed and diagnosis was recorded as Transmission speed sensor which was common for recalls recently. Uncertain, how or when it started happening there was an elderly couple who owned the vehicle before me. This incident occurs frequently but not all the time.

What’s driving and all the stiff on the instrument panel stop working and down shifted in to first gear got a six speed transmission in it was going 55 sometimes it goes faster by it’s self just started out of nowhere

The contact owns a 2013 Ford F-150. The contact stated while depressing the accelerator pedal, the accelerator pedal failed to respond as needed. The contact stated there was no warning light illuminated. The contact depressed the brake pedal twice which disengaged the accelerator pedal. The contact called the local dealer and made them aware of the failure. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The manufacturer had been informed of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 119,000.

Mileage: 119,000

Complaint: Speedometer is not working, loss of function of speedometer while driving and Downshifting of the gear. The instrumental cluster showed a maintenance warning while driving in which will cause the speedometer to stop working. When trying to drive the vehicle on a stop position, there is a delay on the acceleration. Vehicle feels like it's on 2nd or 3rd gear. This may lead to loss of control on vehicle. I brought my vehicle to Ford service, I had them do a diagnose on my vehicle. The only issue they're able to find is the cooling system leak and rotor/brake pad replacement in which I ended up costing $3700. Knowing this would resolve the main issue. They had my truck for a month and after 24 hours of receiving my vehicle the main issue showed up and can't use it again due to safety issue. I believe the issue of my vehicle is part of 2013 Ford F-150 recall, but my vehicle has not received a recall. I believe this is the issue my vehicle experiencing below. recall no: 19V433000 recall no: 19V075000 How come Ford Service did not know about my vehicle issue when it is the 2013 Ford F150 Recall Problem. But they let me spend big bucks for nothing and still not to be able to use my vehicle until now.

I’ve went though 8 wheel bearings in the last 6 months on the drivers side tire alone. I’ve had to replace brake hoses every few weeks and I’ve had to take it to two different dealerships. Also it keep downshift from 6 gear to first with no warning. I’m afraid it’s gonna cause me to wreck.

Driving normal and then sudden down shift while driving on the freeway Had the software update and it’s still doing the same thing. Was told the lead frame needs replacement. Ford has so many issues with the parts they are back ordered and I am now moving past the extended 10 year / 150,000 mile warranty. I can’t drive and have no idea when or if parts will be available.

LCD panel goes blank, when i shift it, it smacks hard and does not go into gear. cuts out and speedometer fails. Have to shut off and restart

Driving down the freeway, the vehicle lost response to the throttle and transmission resulting in no ability to safely move off the road and needing to coast to the shoulder. A wrench icon on the dash appeared along with an engine light which stayed illuminated and was reading a p0720 error code (Output shaft speed sensor). This occurred twice while going freeway speeds, and once at city street pace. The issue was able to be reset by turning the vehicle on and off, but repeated a couple more times. This is available for inspection as the check engine light has stayed illuminated. A similar issue has occurred where the vehicle will have a wrench symbol on the dash, with the speedometer mileage not working in addition to not shifting below 3rd gear and above 5th gear.

My 2013 Ford F150 has been throwing wrench light while downshifting automatically. for months. Then I lose my speedometer and the airbag light illuminates. I also have had random downshifting that causes a lock up in the back end (basically giving the feeling of slamming on the breaks). I took my vehicle in to Ford dealership on 12/8/22 and they did states that it was part of the 19N01 lead frame recall. My truck was at around 104,000 miles. I have called multiple times with no luck on when part will be available. I have no other vehicle to drive and ford has not offered any type of resolution. After having the rear end lock up multiple times I am concerned to continue driving the vehicle. I am also very concerned with what kind of other damage all this erratic downshifting is doing to my vehicle, especially the automatic transmission.

The problem is when driving the vehicle losses power , service icon come on , but all the instruments go blank including speed , oil pressure, fuel . the vehicle accelaration does not work proper, it feels like it get stuck on high gear. unable to accelerate rapidly. when checked for codes not codes indicated. then when i turn the vehicle off and restart it , everything start to work proper.

2013 Ford F150 in the past week has experienced sudden downshift with speedometer dropping to 0 with electronics failing in the vehicle while being operated. I started to research and there was not an official recall but instead treated as a Customer satisfaction program 19N01. I have never received any emails thru the ford app, although my email is registered, never had this brought to my attention by any of the Ford dealers while they were performing routine maintenance. I immediately took the truck to the dealer where it was purchased at Preston Ford, Denton MD. I have been advised that there was a warranty extension done until 10 tears or 150,000 miles. My vehicle currently has 155K miles. I was advised on 12/5 that they will not cover the normally $1200 repair because of the mileage, even though I wasn't provided an explanation why I was not notified. Then I was told due to supply chain issues, Ford is unable to get the lead frame, so they have to order a whole new valve body for $1900.00 if I would like the truck to be repaired. This is my daily vehicle. How is it that an issue that causes a sudden stop, which could lead to collisions and has also been known to shift in reverse not an actual recall since lives are in danger? This should be a true recall and Ford needs to fix. This issue shouldn't have a mileage constraint on it. A serious driving hazard should be rectified regardless of how many miles a vehicle has.

When attempting to coast to a stop at slow speeds the throttle stays up and even causes the truck to accelerate at times. The truck will shift hard randomly. The truck appears to get stuck in a high gear and loses power to accelerate, at times. Driving at highway speeds the truck loses power. A mechanic shop pulled codes p0720 and P0722. The mechanic shop referred me to the dealer because the codes were under an extended warranty for a recall 16s19-supplement #1. The dealer reported that they did not pull any codes off the truck except finding erratic misfires. The dealer reported that the truck engine light has to come on for them to read a code. They reported they can not order the lead frame part until they pull a code off the truck. They also report the part is on back order with no ETA. The trucks wrench light continues to come on but not engine light. An auto body shop was able to pull P0720 code off my truck without the engine light coming on. Ford has not returned my calls.

01 Apr 22, vehicle was received from Penske Ford after coolant leak to include scheduled maintenance such as engine oil and filter change, engine air filter, transfer case fluid change, drive belt, front differential fluid change and lastly the transmission fluid and filter change. Mileage in was at 156877 and mileage out from the services was 156879. Approximately 6,000 miles added from the mileage counter, the vehicle experienced sudden downshift with speedometer dropping to zero and passenger airbag caution illuminated on the dashboard. Upon reading the code via the OBD2 code reader, the following DTC were noted: p0720 output shaft speed sensor circuit; p0722 Output Shaft speed sensor circuit no signal; U0401:00-0B Invalid Data received from ECM/PCM A; B00A0:68-8B - Occupant Classification System; U0401:68-0B Invalid data received from ECM/PCM A; U0401:00-0A. Safety risk was the sudden down shift while going at normal speed or flow of traffic. Sudden downshift can result into a rear end collision. The vehicle has not been inspected since the malfunction however, through research of TSB 19N01 and contacting the dealership, it was determined that the extended warranty did not apply due to the mileage exceeded the 150,000 therefore I ended up buying and fixing my own vehicle with current mileage of 163421.4 at completion. This vehicle was also recalled for 19NS19 because of 6R80 transmission. I am unsure if this warrants another recall however, it is my belief that it should be looked at again.

Current recall of vehicle shifting up and down while driving down the road. Sometimes shifting all the way down to first gear while going down the highway at 45-50 miles per hour.

Vehicle will not shift properly into gear or switches gears randomly into the wrong gear for the speed. Apparently it is the software that controls the speed control sensor for the transmission

I'm not sure if it's the cruze control or just the the accelerator that is causing the problem. I'm driving along and then the truck kicks into high speed almost throwing me off the road. At times it's slow then it kicks in. Very scary.

Speedometer shut off. Truck stayed in 6th gear and wouldn't down shift. Gears are erratic. Wrench shows on screen. Check engine light is on. Truck won't shift properly.

Engine oil continuously spills onto the engine, and it has caused engine failure. The check engine light and the oil reserve light will come on and it will cause a massive decrease in speed and even shut down. I was coming off the highway when it shut down last time almost causing a massive car accident. We have taken it to the ford dealership, but they told us that we would need a new engine.

I was driving my truck in north Georgia while towing a trailer under 5000 lbs. The truck was in cruis control at 68 mph and the truck suddenly down shifted from 5th to 1st. I got the truck off the interstate at a reduced speed since it wouldn't shift up. When this happened an orange wrench light came on. When I stopped I turned the truck off and the light went away. We fueled up and got on the road. Shortly after the truck did the same thing with dropping to first gear and felt like it lost power steering. We pulled over and detached the trailer. I then got back on the road and after getting off the interstate and to slower roads the truck did the same thing. Every time the truck did this it reset the lights on the dash. The truck then sat for 5 days with out being driven. On my way home the check engine light came on. On Sunday June 12th the truck was dropped off at banner ford in Mandeville louisiana. The mechanic advised that while the truck acted like the lead frame recall issues they will not do anything unless I can prove the truck did this. The proof is they need to have a code show up. However, every time it did this the wrench light went away when the truck was restarted. I was told by Ford that when this happens I need to drive the truck straight to dealer without turning it off. Since the dealer said they couldn't do anything I called the 1 866 Ford number. The CAS # with Ford is attached to this. There has been poor communication with ford toe through this. The dealer told Ford that I picked the truck up earlier this week but in reality I picked it up today because the dealer called me yesterday. The ford apparently the dealer mechanic never communicated with Fords mechanic to resolve my issue and told them I got my truck sooner.

May 18, 2022; Vehicle has 140,650 miles. My truck drove fine all day until It seems the like the transmission failed, it just kicked out of gear. The check engine light came on, as did the air bag light. The truck had no power, no fuel control, and seemed no transmission control. The first time, I was able to coast to a safe area, stop, and put the truck into park. It would not shift back into gear to proceed. I shut the vehicle off, and in park. Restarted and proceeded to continue, then it drove fine for less than 1/2 mile, and the check engine light and air bag light both came on again. The same problem occurred as before, no power and no transmission. I was able to coast to safety again, and shut the truck off again. Placed into park and restarted. Put into gear, and drove to a parts store about 1 mile away, with no problems, but I could feel the transmission hesitating to change gears. The parts store was unable to get any malfunction codes from the truck. We were able to drive the truck home without any other problems yet, 13 miles.

The Output Speed Sensor has been failing multiple times since I had the recall remedied in September 2021. The codes p0720, p0721 and p0722 have been present, and it hadn’t been to much of an issue until it downshifted to first gear while going 60+ mph, causing me to temporarily lose control. Because of the downshift the engine redlined causing the 8th valve to fail. The dealership says I need a new engine and refuses to fix the transmission because my truck has a salvage title. They also claim that they can’t confirm that the transmission caused the engine to blow. They have since been giving me the run around. The salvage title was present when they did the remedy in September but now it is an issue and to my understanding they cannot refuse to fix a recall because of a salvage or branded title. This happened a month ago and they are still dragging their feet, leaving me with no vehicle and not a lot of options. I have read that fords first remedy was to reprogram the PCM, but the real cause is the OSS going bad and the real remedy is a replacement of the lead frame. I would like to know why they didn’t replace the lead frame the first time if it is proven to work. I feel as if I’m not the only one this has happened to.

The vehicle received the recall software update but I have still experienced sudden downshift to 1st gear on a few occasions. Also have intermittent failure of speedometer and shifting issues that resolve with shutdown and restart.

I have a 2013 F150 3.5 L V6. I can be driving down the road and a truck will Stick and first second and third gear pull off the road park and turn it off then turn it back on then it’ll be fine Happens periodically but no warning lights come on and then I drove it the other day and it was stuck in third gear ,speedometer quit working ,mileage quit ,working the wrench light ,come on and then the check engine light come on.Been to the dealership twice and the first time they change out the plug block on the transmission said it was leaking that didn’t fix the problem then I took it back a week later and they said they couldn’t get it to do anything wrong now three months later it is starting To happen more frequently had code check P0721 Said it was the output shaft speed sensor can anything done to fix the problem . So I don’t have to keep spending money when I take it to the dealership where I bought the truck in August 2020 it came with a two-year bumper bumper warranty

I know how to drive it is not cool to be in trouble for not being able to control a truck that malfunction

Vehicle accelerated without driver pressing gas pedal and RPM gauge jumped up to 5 (which is red zone). Brake pedal went to the floor when brakes were applied instead of causing the vehicle to stop. Emergency brake was used, and driver lost control of the vehicle resulting in a terrible accident. The crash caused injuries to driver and the death of a bicyclist.

while accelerating/driving in city traffic the vehicle lost power suddenly and abrupt and would not respond to any gas/throttle input. There were no prior indication of an issues. at the time when the vehicle lost power the maintenance sign/warning came on. The vehicle was not able to maintain or increase speed to main traffic flow and became safety risk to the driver and other motorists. The dealer diagnosed and replaced the throttle body to repair the vehicle. The dealer has claimed that the part is not a emission related part. The dealer could not verify the repair would be covered under any warranty that apply to the vehicle. The faulty and replaced throttle body has been retrieved from the dealer ship with the repair of the vehicle and is available upon request.

Throttle body replaced in 07/2019 after failure and limp mode / no power on interstate. Throttle body failure again this past week. Ford refuses to address safety failure of throttle body.

Traveling eastbound on Hatcher Boulevard at about 35 miles per hour the truck shifting down into first gear all by itself causing the rear tires to lock up and I lost control of the vehicle momentarily. Fortunately there was no accident. The guy behind me was well behind me. But it was real close. This is very dangerous

I was driving on the freeway going 65mph when the transmission started switching gears it went from 6 gear to 1st gear in a matter of 1 second, luckily no one was behind me or else I would’ve got hit. I took it to ford to get recall unexpected Transmission downshift fixed, but it didn’t fix anything it actually got worse. Now the speed gauges stop working out of no where and it gets stuck in whatever gear I am driving in when this happens 2 codes turn on P0720 output shaft speed sensor and P0721output shaft speed range/performance. My truck had no issues before this recall. My life is in danger when I’m driving this truck I have called the dealership but I get the same answer every time that there’s nothing else they can do.

The vehicle will downshift from any higher gear to first gear with no warning at any speed. the rear tires sqeal and the whole truck jolts. It is happening more often in the last month.

Date: July 5, 2021, roughly 5 pm Location: Interstate 40, heading west. Just east of the first exit for Shawnee OK I was driving with traffic, cruise set at 80 mph. Changed to left lane to pass a travel trailer and noticed traffic was getting heavier up ahead. I tapped the brake to cancel the cruise control, and the engine raced out of control. It was as if the accelerator was pressed to the floor. I used both feet on the brake to attempt to slow the pickup, was able to change back to the right lane, and managed to drive onto the shoulder and slam the truck into park. The racing engine never let up until the key was turned off. I did see that the cruise dash light was indicating that the cruise was off before I changed lanes. It is my belief that tapping the brake initiated the problem. Fortunately, no one was hurt, there was no accident. I can still see the children in the vehicle ahead of me when I try to go to sleep and I have nightmares of what could have happened. No problem the next day. We tried to create the situation when traffic was light, but have not experienced any problem with braking, tapping the brake, the cruise control, or unintended acceleration since then.

Loss of power while pulling onto highway. Code 2112 (Throttle Body Failure Code P2112 which cause the truck to loos all power. Unable to get out of the way when it shuts down. Has happened 3x in 2 days. Have spoken to dealership and they stated that code has nothing to do with losing power. The P2112 OBD-II trouble code is one of number of possible codes that indicates that the Powertrain Control Module (PCM) has detected a malfunction with the operation of the Throttle Actuator Control System. ... Code P2112 is set by the PCM when the throttle body plate is stuck in the closed position. Which this is a major saftey issues while at high speed on the highways.

WHEN DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD THE SPEEDOMETER GOES TO ZERO AND THE VEHICLE STARTS TO JERK AND WILL NOT SHIFT.

WHILE DRIVING THE POWER TO MY SPEEDOMETER WOULD GO OUT. ALSO THE TRUCK WOULD INCREASE IN RPM'S. THE LAST TIME IT HAPPENED THE WHEELS LOCKED UP ON ME. IN MOST CASES THE PROBLEM WOULD BE FIXED ONCE I TURNED THE CAR OFF AND RE STARTED IT.

THE VEHICLE HAS TWO "TYPES" OF PROBLEM THAT MAY BE RELATED. IN SOME CASES, THE TRUCK DROPS DOWN INTO 1ST GEAR REGARDLESS OF THE SPEED. THIS HAS HAPPENED THREE TIMES SINCE I PICKED UP THE TRUCK FOLLOWING THE ATTEMPTED RECALL REPAIR, BUT NONE OF THESE INCIDENCES OF DROPPING INTO 1ST GEAR CAUSED ERROR CODES TO POP UP. IN ANOTHER "TYPE" OF INCIDENT, THE SPEEDOMETER DROPS TO ZERO EVEN WHILE IN MOTION, AND THE VEHICLE STAYS IN 3RD GEAR NO MATTER THE SPEED (INCLUDING WHEN NOT IN MOTION, EVEN AFTER SHIFTING INTO PARK AND BACK TO DRIVE, THE VEHICLE AUTOMATICALLY JUMPS TO 3RD GEAR BEFORE I EVEN START TO MOVE).

GOING IN MOTION ON THE TURNPIKE AT 70MPH MY TRUCK DOWN SHIFTED TO 2ND GEAR. AFTER THAT THE WRENCH AND THE AIRBAG LIGHT CAME ON THE DASHBOARD. THE MILEAGE ERASED AND THE SPEEDOMETER STOPPED WORKING. AT A STATIONARY RED LIGHT MY TRUCK WOULD SHOW I WAS ON 3RD GEAR. FORTUNATE FOR ME I WAS BY MYSELF WHEN THIS PROBLEM OCCURRED BUT I COULD'VE BEEN WITH MY FAMILY AND NOW I'M SCARED TO DRIVE MY TRUCK AND EVEN MORE SCARED TO BRING HE FAMILY WITH ME ON MY TRUCK. THAT IS THE NEWEST CAR IN MY HOUSE AND WOULD THINK IT WOULD BE THE MOST DEPENDABLE BUT UNFORTUNATELY IT'S NOT AND I CAN'T EVEN AFFORD TO BUY ANOTHER CAR BECAUSE I WAS AFFECTED BY THIS PANDEMIC. IF I CAN SELL THE CAR BACK TO THE BANK IT WOULD BE GREAT BECAUSE I DON'T EVEN FEELS SAFE BRINGING THIS CAR AS THE FAMILY TRUCK.

WHILE DRIVING FROM OHIO BACK TO NORTH CAROLINA, MY WIFE AND I WERE TRAVELLING AT 75 MPH WHEN SUDDENLY AND WITHOUT WARNING MY TRUCK ABRUPTLY STALLED TO 5 MPH WITH NO POWER FROM THE ACCELERATOR. I MANAGED TO GET THE TRUCK OUT OF THE HIGH SPEED LANE ON A TWO LANE HIGHWAY AND ON TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD. I TURNED THE TRUCK OFF. A FEW MINUTES LATER, I TURNED THE TRUCK BACK ON AND ALL FUNCTION RESUMED. THIS HAS HAPPENED IN THE PAST, BUT WHEN I TOOK IT IN FOR WORK THERE WAS NO ISSUE REPORTED OR READ AND THE ERROR COULD NOT BE REPLICATED. THE TRUCK WAS TOWED TO A FORD DEALERSHIP. SERVICE INFORMED ME I HAD A BAD THROTTLE BODY. THIS TRUCK WAS PART OF A "CUSTOMER SATISFACTION PROGRAM" RUN IN 2013 FOR A BAD THROTTLE BODY AND TOTAL LOSS OF ACCELERATION. MY TRUCK RECEIVED THE REPAIR IN 2014 VOIDING THE THROTTLE BODY 10 YEAR OR 150,000 MILE WARRANTY. THE SAFETY CONCERN REMAINS AND IS ENDANGERING MY LIFE, MY WIFE, AND OUR FUTURE CHILD. THE PART MIGHT BE REPLACED WITHOUT FIXING THE PROBLEM. AN ELECTRICAL ISSUE MAY KEEP THIS VEHICLE HAVING REOCCURRENCES. THIS HAS ME VERY CONCERNED ABOUT A SERVICE THAT DOES NOT INCREASE VEHICLE SAFETY. AND BECAUSE OF THAT CONCERN I BEGAN TO INQUIRE IF ANYONE ELSE HAS HAD THIS ISSUE. IT TURNS OUT THAT IN 2015 A CLASS ACTION SUIT WAS FILED AGAINST FORD AND SETTLED ON INDIVIDUAL BASISES (JANIS BENKLE ET AL V FORD MOTOR COMPANY). CURRENTLY, THERE ARE NO PROGRAMS TO ASSIST OWNERS LIKE MYSELF IN THIS SITUATION. THE ORIGINAL PROGRAM IS NO LONGER VALID AND THE REPAIR PERFORMED WAS ONLY GOOD FOR ONE TIME (THAT REPAIR APPARENTLY WOULD NOT SOLVE THE SAFETY CONCERN AS OTHERS HAVE STATED THAT THE PROBLEM PERSISTED AFTER A NEW THROTTLE BODY WAS PUT IN). I HAVE SOUGHT OUT AN AUDIENCE WITH THE "ZONE MANAGER". HOWEVER, I HAVE BEEN INFORMED THAT IS IMPOSSIBLE AS CUSTOMER CARE WILL NOT GIVE THAT INFORMATION AND NEITHER WILL THE DEALERSHIP.

ON 10 AUG 2019 I TOOK MY FORD IN FOR TRANSMISSION RECALL, REPROGRAMMING TO PREVENT UNCONTROLLED DOWNSHIFTING. I HAD NEVER HAD HAD ANY PROBLEMS WITH DOWNSHIFTING PRIOR TO THIS DATE. ONCE RECALL WAS DONE WITHIN A WEEK MY TRUCK DRASTICALLY DOWNSHIFTED TWICE BEFORE TAKING IT BACK TO THE DEALER WHO PERFORMED THE RECALL. THEY SAID THERE WAS NO PROBLEM WITH MY TRUCK AND TOLD ME MY WHEELS LOCKING WAS NOT A SIGN OF DOWNSHIFTING. NOW I CONTINUE TO HAVE DOWNSHIFTING ISSUES AND ALSO AM THROWING A P0720 CODE. I JUST KNOW THAT THE DOWNSHIFTING BROKE THE LEADFRAME AND I LOOKING AT A HUGE BILL. NOW VEHICLE GOES INTO LIMP MODE WHERE I HAVE TO STOP AND RESTART MY CAR TO GET SPEEDOMETER TO SHOW.

THIS HAS HAPPENED 5 TIMES. WHEN STARTING TO TAKE OFF IN LOW SPEEDS, 20-30 MPH, THE TRANSMISSION WILL SLIP INTO NEUTRAL THEN INTO FIRST SLOWING THE TRUCK DOWN RAPIDLY.

I HAVE A F150 4-WHEEL ECO BOOST V6. I RECENTLY HAD MY VEHICLE IN FOR AN OIL CHANGE AND AT THAT TIME DECIDED TO HAVE THE RECALL DONE FOR THE SOFTWARE UPDATE. THE NEXT FEW DAYS I NOTICED THAT THERE WAS SOME HESITATION WITH THE GEARS SHIFTING AND THE TRANSMISSION AT TIMES WOULD DROP. I CONTACTED THE DEALERSHIP TO BRING MY TRUCK BACK IN AT THAT TIME THEY COULD NOT FIND ANYTHING WRONG BUT AN OIL PRESSURE SENSOR. SOME DAYS LATER I WAS DRIVING ON THE FEEDER ROAD GETTING READY TO ENTER THE HIGHWAY. AS SOON AS I ENTERED MY SPEEDOMETER STOP WORKING AND THE TRANSMISSION DROPPED INTO 1ST GEAR. THERE WAS A CAR BEHIND ME THAT ALMOST COLLIDED WITH MY TRUCK. MY FAMILY WAS IN THE CAR AT THE TIME AND THIS COULD HAVE BEEN A SERIOUS ACCIDENT. THE NEXT DAY I BROUGHT MY TRUCK BACK INTO THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY DID A QUICK DIAGNOSIS. THEY STATED THAT I HAD TRANSMISSION ISSUES AND THAT I NEEDED TO LOOK INTO GETTING ANOTHER VEHICLE THROUGH THEM AND TRADING MY TRUCK OUT. I WAS UPSET BY THE RESPONSE SO I TOOK MY VEHICLE TO A LOCAL TRANSMISSION SHOP WHERE THEY THOROUGHLY INSPECTED THE TRUCK. THE FINDINGS WERE THAT THE OSS SENSOR WAS FAULTY AND IT PULL UP A P0270 CODE. THE SHOP ADVISED ME THAT THIS WAS A WARRANTY AND SAFETY ISSUE AND THAT I IMMEDIATELY TAKE IT BACK TO THE DEALERSHIP TO HAVE IT REPAIRED. WHEN I RETURN TO THE DEALERSHIP THEY AT THAT TIME ACKNOWLEDGE THAT IT WAS A WARRANTY ISSUE AND COULD BE FIX, BUT THEY COULD NOT EVEN LOOK AT IT FOR 2-WEEKS AND WOULD NOT EVEN PROVIDE A LOANER AFTER STATING MY SAFETY CONCERNS. I THEN CONTACT FORD MOTOR COMPANY AND THEY COULD NOT ASSIST UNTIL THE DEALERSHIP LOOKED AT MY TRUCK. I DID STATE TO THEM THE TIME ISSUE AT THE DEALERSHIP BUT WAS TOLD THEY HAVE NO CONTROL OVER WHAT THEY DO. I'M STUCK WITH DRIVING A UNSAFE VEHICLE FOR AN ISSUE OUTSIDE OF MY CONTROL AND NO ONE AT FORD IS TAKING THE MATTER SERIOUSLY. THIS COULD CAUSE A FATAL OR SEVERE INJURY.

MY AUTO DIAGNOSTIC TOOL GIVES P2111 CODE WHICH INDICATES A THROTTLE BODY PROBLEM. PROBLEM HAS OCCURED WHEN STOPPED OR MOVING AT ANY SPEED. CHECK ENGINE LIGHT MAY OR MAY NOT COME ON ( NOT CONSISTENT). I CONTACTED FORD MOTOR CO. CUSTOMER SERVICE DEPARTMENT CONCERNING THIS ISSUE AFTER READING ABOUT A "CUSTOMER SATISFACTION PROGRAM" 13N03 RELATING TO THIS ISSUE IN WHICH FORD OFFERS TO REPLACE THE FAULTY PART AT NO CHARGE AS AN EXTENDED WARRANTY IN LIEU OF A FACTORY RECALL ACCORDING TO THE NHTSA. I WAS TOLD THAT THEY (FORD) MAY NOT HELP WITH THIS ISSUE. I WAS TOLD THEY WOULD HAVE TO REVIEW MY COMPLAINT AND WOULD GET BACK TO ME.

WHILE THE VEHICLE WAS IN MOTION THE TRUCK SUDDENLY DOWNSHIFTED AND CAUSED THE ENGINE TO REV TO MAX RPMS. THIS RESULTED IN A SUDDEN JOLT OF THE ENTIRE VEHICLE AND RAPID DECELERATION. VEHICLES TRAVELING BEHIND ME HAD TO SLAM THEIR BRAKES TO NARROWLY AVOID REAR ENDING ME BECAUSE THE TRUCK SLOWED DOWN SO SUDDENLY AND WITH NO BRAKE LIGHTS AS A WARNING. ON SEVERAL OCCASIONS IN THE LAST 2 DAYS SINCE THIS HAPPENED, THE SPEEDOMETER HAS ACTED ERRATICALLY BY GOING UP AND DOWN FROM 0 TO HIGHWAY SPEED OF 60MPH WHILE I WAS TRAVELING WITH CRUISE CONTROL SET AT 60. THE TRANSMISSION SEEMS TO SHIFT ERRATICALLY INTO A GEAR THAT WOULD MATCH THE SPEED OF WHERE THE SPEEDOMETER INDICATES EVEN THOUGH THE TRUE SPEED IS 60MPH. THESE SUDDEN DOWN SHIFTS SEEM TO HAVE DAMAGED MY TRANSMISSION BECAUSE THE TRUCK NOW HAS ISSUES GOING INTO GEAR FROM A STOP AND WILL REV TO OVER 4000 RPM WITHOUT SHIFTING INTO 1ST GEAR TO START MOVING. ONCE IT'S MOVING, THE TRANSMISSION OFTEN SHIFTS ERRATICALLY WHEN THE SPEEDOMETER ACTS UP. I WILL NOT DRIVE THE TRUCK ANYMORE EXCEPT TO HAVE IT REPAIRED BECAUSE IT IS TOO DANGEROUS.

THE TRUCK SUDDENLY WENT FROM NORMAL ENGINE SOUND TO A LOUDER AND LOUDER SOUND AND IT SLOWED DOWN AS IF I WAS BEEN DRAGGED BACKWARD. THE ENGINE SOUND FELT LIKE THE TRUCK HAD DOWN SHIFTED FROM A HIGHER TO A LOWER GEAR AND WAS BRAKING ON ITS OWN WHILE I WAS TRYING TO COMPENSATE BY GIVING MORE GAS SO THAT I COULD PULLOVER SAFELY. WITHIN A MINUTE THE TRUCK STOPPED STILL, THERE WAS SMOKE AND FIRE THAT SPREAD RAPIDLY THROUGH THE CABINE AND ENGINE. WE NEARLY ESCAPED. I WAS UNABLE TO COMPLETELY CLEAR THE TRAILER OFF THE ROAD AS THE TRUCK HAD COMPLETELY STOPPED. THE TRUCK BURNED COMPLETELY. BEFORE REPORTING THIS INCIDENT I CALLED FORD, PROVIDED MY VIN NUMBER AND ASKED WHETHER THERE HAD BEEN ANY RECENT RECALLS ON MY F150.

SAME AS THE FIRST INSTANCE, I PULLED OVER TO THE SIDE OF THE STREET, TURNED OFF MY TRUCK, WAITED A FEW MINUTES AND WHEN I TURNED ON THE TRUCK AGAIN THE ISSUE WAS RESOLVED. IT WAS CLEAR THAT THIS ISSUE WAS ELECTRICAL AND NO MECHANICAL AND THE ORIGINAL RECALL WORK COMPLETED BY THE DEALERSHIP DID NOT RESOLVE THE ISSUE.

I WANT THE RECORD TO REFLECT THAT THE FIRST RECALL, REPROGRAMMING OF THE POWER TRAIN MODULE DID NOT WORK, AND LEFT ME AT RISK OF A SECOND DOWNSHIFTING INCIDENT OCCURRING. MY TRUCK HAD A SECOND INCIDENT AND AFTER RETURNING TO THE DEALERSHIP A SECOND TIME THE LEADFRAME WAS REPLACED.

TRIED ACCELERATING BUT WAS NOT ABLE TO...HAD TO FIND A WAY TO MOVE OUT OF THE STREET BEFORE SOMETHING HAPPENED AND HAVE SOMEONE CRASH THE BACK....HORRIBLE EXPERIENCE..AFTER FINDING A PLACE TO PARK, TURNED THE TRUCK OFF...WHEN TURNED IT BACK ON WAS WORKING FINE AGAIN WHILE DRIVING THE 2013 FORD F150 ECOBOOST. IT SUDDENTLY LOST POWER, THE WRENCH LIGHT CAME ON, I TRIED TO ACCELERATE BUT WAS NOT ABLE TO. I HAD TO PULL OVER TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD, TURN OFF THE TRUCK AND TURN IT BACK ON. WHEN I TURNED IT BACK ON IT WAS WORKING FINE AGAIN. THIS HAS HAPPENED MULTIPLE TIMES DURING THE WEEK. AND FORD IS NO HELP UNLESS THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT COMES ON. IT'S IS SUPER UNSAFE TO DRIVE, YET FORD SAYS TO KEEP DRIVING THE VEHICLE.

ON 4/2/19 WHILE DRIVING AT APPROX. 50 MPH, ALL AT ONCE, THE SPEEDOMETER DROPPED TO 0, AIR BAG LIGHT CAME ON, AND THE TRUCK STARTED RUNNING AN IDLING ROUGH. WHEN WE GOT TO OUR DESTINATION WE WERE PLANNING ON CALLING ON SOMEONE TO PICK US UP. WE STARTED THE TRUCK TO MOVE IT OUT OF THE WAY, AND IT WAS BACK TO NORMAL. WE DROVE HOME NO PROBLEMS. I DROVE THE TRUCK TO WORK THE VERY NEXT DAY, 10 MINUTES AWAY, RAN ERRANDS, ABOUT 30 MINUTES DRIVING, AND WENT BACK TO WORK. STILL NO PROBLEMS. AS I WAS GETTING READY TO LEAVE WORK, I HADN'T BEEN DRIVING BUT A FEW MINUTES, THEN THE TRUCK ALL OF SUDDEN DOWNSHIFTED TO FIRST GEAR. I ALMOST LOST CONTROL. I WAS UP TO ABOUT 45 MPH AT THIS POINT. THE BACK END OF THE TRUCK KEPT SLIDING UNTIL IT FINALLY SLOWED DOWN. LUCKILY I LIVE IN A SMALL TOWN WITH NOT A LOT OF TRAFFIC. I AM NOT GOING TO ATTEMPT TO DRIVE IT AGAIN UNTIL OUT LOCAL DEALERSHIP CHECKS IT OUT. I CALLED THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY HAVE ADVISED US TO BRING IT THERE ON MONDAY APRIL 8TH, AND LEAVE IT WITH THEM.

WHILE DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY AT A RATE OF 70-75 MPH, I NOTICED BY SPEEDOMETER TWITCH A FEW TIMES. I FOCUSED ON IT WHILE DRIVING AND NOTICED THE TRUCK DOWNSHIFT TO 3RD GEAR FROM 6TH, AND THE SPEEDOMETER DROPPED TO ABOUT 45MPH ON A DIME. ANOTHER INSTANCE I WAS DRIVING HOME, AND THE TRUCK DECIDED TO SHIFT FROM 6TH GEAR DOWN TO 1ST, AFTER WHICH I QUICKLY SHIFTED INTO NEUTRAL AND SLOWED TO A STOP ON THE SHOULDER. WHILE DRIVING ON A DIRT ROAD ABOUT 40MPH MY TRUCK THEN SHIFTED FROM 5TH TO 3RD LURCHED AND WENT BACK TO 5TH GEAR. AN ODD EXPERIENCE IS WHEN MY TRUCK, WHEN IN A PARKING LOT SHIFTED FROM 1ST GEAR TO 5TH(???) I PULLED OVER AND PLACED THE VEHICLE IN THE MANUAL MODE FOR SHIFTING AND DROVE A FEW MILES. AFTER WHICH I RECEIVED A WRENCH SYMBOL AND MY ALL OF MY METERS WENT INTO A DASHED MODE. I PULLED OVER AND TURNED OFF, THEN TURNED BACK ON MY TRUCK AND DIDN'T HAVE ANYMORE ISSUES. I TOOK MY TRUCK INTO THE FORD DEALERSHIP AND THEY TOLD ME THAT IT WAS AN ISSUE WITH THE WIRING IN THE TRANSMISSION. WE WILL SEE IF THAT FIXES THE ISSUE, HOWEVER I GOT A RECALL NOTIFICATION IN THE MAIL FOR INVOLUNTARY DOWNSHIFTING WHICH MAKE ME THINK THERE IS ANOTHER UNDERLYING ISSUES, OTHER THAN THE WIRING.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 FORD F-150. THE CONTACT RECEIVED NOTIFICATION OF NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 19V075000 (POWER TRAIN). WHEN THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL WAS DEPRESSED, THE VEHICLE WOULD NOT ACCELERATE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE BATTERY CABLE WAS REMOVED AND THEN RE-INSTALLED, AND THE VEHICLE FUNCTIONED NORMALLY. AFTER DRIVING 5 MILES AT 35 MPH, THE VEHICLE STARTED TO DECELERATE AND LOST POWER. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO LANDERS FORD SOUTH (95 GOODMAN RD E, SOUTHAVEN, MS 38671, (662) 349-4300) WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE SPEED SHAFT SENSOR NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 150,000.

DRIVING AT STEADY SPEEDS AND ALL OF A SUDDEN SHIFTS UP AND DOWN FROM 1ST TO 5TH AND 6TH GEAR AND BACK DOWN AGAIN SUDDENLY AND UNEXPECTEDLY. WHICH AS EVERYONE ELSE HAS STATED IT IS A MAJOR SAFETY PROBLEM AND FORD IS NOT STANDING BEHIND THEIR PRODUCT. FORD KNOWS OF THIS PROBLEM AS THEY HAVE RECALLED CERTAIN YEARS BUT NOT 2013 WHICH IS APPARENTLY JUST AS MUCH OF AN ISSUE , NOW THAT I HAVE TAKEN MY TRUCK IN FOR SERVICE IT WILL MY RESPONSIBILITY TO PAY AT LEAST $1000 TO REPAIR MAYBE MORE IF MORE PROBLEMS ARE FOUND. THIS IS NOT AN ISOLATED PROBLEM AS THERE IS AN ISSUE THAT SPANS MANY YEARS AND MODELS OF VEHICLES. THE CONSUMER SHOULD NOT HAVE DEAL THIS AS THIS A MANUFACTURING ISSUE THAT HAS SPANNED YEARS AND MANY MODELS AND IS A MAJOR SAFETY ISSUE FOR ME AND THAT UNSUSPECTING VICTIM IN TRAFFIC ACCIDENTS.

FORD F150 SUPERCREW 5.0 V8 6 SPEED AUTO TRANSMISSION. ERRATIC SHIFTING WHILE DRIVING. SOMETIMES WILL STAY IN 5TH GEAR AT A STOP WONT SHIFT DOWN, SOMETIMES WHEN PULLING OUT IN 1ST GEAR WILL NOT SHIFT UP. BOUNCES BACK AND FORTH BETWEEN 1ST GEAR AND THIRD OR 5TH WHILE DRIVING. SHUTTING OFF VEHICLE AND RESTARTING SOMETIMES SOLVES ISSUE BUT BECOMING MORE FREQUENT, RECALL FOR REPROGRAMMING SPEED OUTPUT SENSOR WAS PERFORMED WITH NO RESOLUTION. APPEARS TO BE THE LEAD FRAME MODULE ISSUE THAT WAS RECALLED IN 2011-2012 FORD F150 BUT NOT RECALLED OR EXTENDED WARRANTY ON 2013 MODELS. VERY VERY DANGEROUS, CANNOT DRIVE THIS VEHICLE!

WHILE DRIVING AT 70MPH NOTICED MY TRUCK HAD DOWN SHIFTED INTO 5TH GEAR, I SLOWED TO PULL OVER AND NOTED THE AIRBAG LIGHT WAS ON, THE WRENCH INDICATOR AND SPEEDOMETER WAS AT ZERO. MY TRUCK SUDDENLY DOWN SHIFTED TO 1ST GEAR AT APPROXIMATELY 25-30 MPH. I WAS ABLE TO STOP SAFELY AT THE SHOULDER AND TURNED THE IGNITION OFF AND RESTARTED. MY TRUCK STARTED NORMALLY. I WENT TO FORD HUNTINGTON BEACH AND DESCRIBED THE SITUATION. AFTER EVALUATING DEALER STATED TRANS FLUID FULL, POSS LEAD FRAME DAMAGE AND VALVES GETTING STUCK. $1600! I INFORMED THE DEALER OF THE PENDING RECALL FOR THE TRANSMISSION ON THIS VEHICLE AND WAS INFORMED THAT IT ONLY COVERED A SOFTWARE UPGRADE.

I TOOK MY TRUCK INTO RED MCCOMBS FORD IN SAN ANTONIO, TX BECAUSE I HAD ISSUES WITH MY TRANSMISSION. I CAN BE DRIVING AND IT WOULD REV UP TO 4K RPM WITHOUT MY FOOT ON THE ACCELERATION. THERE ARE TIMES WHEN I'M DRIVING AND IT DROPS INTO 1ST AND JARS ME WHEN IT BOGS DOWN. TOOK IT IN AND WE PAID ALMOST $1000 FOR REPAIRS TO FIX IT SINCE I FEARED FOR MY SAFETY. IT FELT LIKE I HAD NO CONTROL OF MY VEHICLE. THAT WAS IN SEPT 2018..HERE WE ARE MARCH 2019 HAVING THE SAME ISSUES. I TRIED TAKING IT IN, BUT THEY DID NOT HAVE THE OFFER OF A LOANER VEHICLE WHILE THEY FIXED AGAIN, SO I HAVE HAD NO CHOICE BUT TO DRIVE MY TRUCK STILL. I LOVE MY TRUCK...BUT THIS IS SCARY DRIVING LIKE THIS. I DON'T HAVE A CHOICE BECAUSE I HAVE TO GET TO WORK DAILY. I NEED A RELIABLE VEHICLE PER I HAD MAJOR SURGERY LAST SEPT AND HAVE HAD 2 EMERGENCY ROOM TRIPS SINCE AND CANNOT AFFORD TO GET IN A WRECK OR HAVE MY TRUCK GO OUT WITH MY HEALTH ISSUES. I'M AFRAID ALL THE JERKING IS GOING TO CAUSE ME ISSUES WITH MY BACK AND SAFETY OF MY FAMILY. I HAVE HAD TO PULL OVER AND RESTART TRUCK TO GET IT TO QUIT REVVING UP, AND NOT REAR ENDING SOMEONE.

WIDELY REPORTED- PLEASE READ CAREFULLY! VERY SIMILAR TO EXISTING RECALL*, BUT NOT THE SAME. POTENTIALLY DEADLY. CURRENT RECALL DOES NOT ADDRESS THE SUDDEN UP-SHIFTS MENTIONED HERE. 2013 FORD F-150 MFG DEFECT: MOLDED LEADFRAME ASSY IN 6R80 TRANSMISSION SYMPTOMS: INTERMITTENT LOSS OF SPEED SIGNAL CAUSES SUDDEN/UNEXPECTED SLAMMING UPSHIFT FROM 1ST GEAR TO 5TH WHEN ACCELERATING FROM A STOP, CAUSING A COMPLETE AND UNEXPECTED LOSS OF ALL ACCELERATION. INDICATIONS: 5TH GEAR SUDDENLY INDICATED ON DISPLAY, DASHES REPLACE NUMBERS ON SPEED/MILEAGE RELATED DISPLAYS (MPG, ODOMETER). SPEEDOMETER MAY READ 0, AIRBAG SYMBOL POPS ON, LARGE ORANGE WRENCH SYMBOL MAY BRIEFLY APPEAR. PRESSING ON ACCELERATOR DOES NOT CAUSE DOWNSHIFT. MOTOR MAY STALL. REMAINS IN 5TH GEAR WITHOUT SOME OTHER CORRECTIVE ACTION. TURNING ENGINE OFF AND BACK ON WILL RESET THE COMPUTER, AND VEHICLE OPERATES NORMALLY UNTIL NEXT OCCURRENCE. DANGERS: THIS COULD BE FATAL WHEN PULLING OUT INTO ONCOMING TRAFFIC, BOTH FROM THE SIDE (PULLING OUT IN FRONT OF ONCOMING TRAFFIC FROM SIDE STREET) OR FROM REAR (SUDDEN, UNEXPECTED LOSS OF SPEED/ NO BRAKE LIGHTS). FORD CANNOT FIX THIS BY RE-PROGRAMMING THE VEHICLE TO IGNORE THE FAULTY SENSOR ANY MORE THAN YOU CAN IGNORE AN ONCOMING CEMENT TRUCK OR TRAIN. REPAIR IS APPROXIMATELY $800. IF NOT RECALLED, OWNERS MAY TRY TO LIVE WITH THE RISKS OR TRADE TO AN UNKNOWING PERSON, ENDANGERING LIVES OF OTHERS. *THIS DEFECTIVE PART IS ALSO THE ROOT CAUSE OF FORD RECALL #19S07, INVOLVING SUDDEN VIOLENT DOWN-SHIFTS (NOT UPSHIFTS). FORD IS AVOIDING THE PROBLEM BY RE-PROGRAMMING THE ECU TO IGNORE THE INTERMITTENT SPEED SIGNALS, ALLOWING THE TRANSMISSION TO FAIL MORE GRACEFULLY, DEFECTS TO BE REPAIRED AT OWNER'S EXPENSE. THIS APPROACH WILL NOT WORK FOR THE UP-SHIFT PROBLEM. THE DEFECTIVE PART SHOULD BE IMMEDIATELY REPLACED AT FORD'S EXPENSE TO CORRECT BOTH PROBLEMS.

TRUCK THEN JUMPED TO 3RD GEAR, BACK TO 1ST, THEN BACK UP TO 5TH GEAR. PULLED OVER TURNED OF TRUCK, TOOK OUT KEY, RE-STARTED TRUCK AND ISSUE WAS GONE. THIS HAS HAPPENED MULTIPLE TIMES, HOWEVER, I WAS AT 10-20MPH. ONCE AT 55MPH SHIFT TO 3RD GEAR, BACK TO 5TH, THEN TO 1ST, UP TO 3RD. EVERY TIME THE TRUCK WILL END UP AT 3RD GEAR. THE TRUCK WILL NOT SHIFT DOWN TO FIRST MANUALLY, YOU MUST TAKE OF IN 3RD GEAR WITHOUT ANY POWER. THERE WAS A RECALL FOR 2011-2012 FORD F150'S.

O FEEL THIS IS AN ONGOING PROBLEM WITH A HUGE SAFETY CONCERN WITB YOUR VEHICLE GOING FROM 70MPH DOWN TO FIRST GEAR CAUSING THE WHEELS TO LOCK UP AND SWERVE ALL OVER THE HIGHWAY. DO PEOPLE HAVE TO DIE BEFORE FORD WILL RECOGNIZE THIS IS A PROBLEM WITH MANY YEARS OF THE MODEL!!!!! I'M HAPPY MY FAMILY WAS NOT IN THE TRUCK WHEN THIS HAPPENS. I CAR POOL KIDS EVERYDAY ON THE HIGHWAY. WOULD YOU FEEL SAFE DOING THIS KNOWING THAT FORD KNOWS ABOUT THIS ISSUE FROM PAST YEARS. PLEASE MAKE THESE TRUCKS SAFE!!! I TOOK IT TO A FORD DEALER AND THEY HOOKED UP THE COMPUTER TO MY TRUCK, AND THE COMPUTER SHOWED 0 CODES FOUND.

THE FRIGHTENING ISSUE I EXPERIENCED ON JANUARY 7, 2019 IS IDENTICAL TO THE REPORTS I HAVE SINCE READ REGARDING THIS VEHICLE AND THE FREQUENT ISSUES THAT LED TO THE RECALL FOR 2010-2012 FORD F-150'S FOR UNEXPECTED TRANSMISSION DOWNSHIFTS [NHTSA RECALL NO. / MFR RECALL NO. : 16V-248 / 16S19]. WHILE DRIVING 65-70 MPH ON THE INTERSTATE, SPEEDOMETER SUDDENLY AND RAPIDLY FLUCTUATED BETWEEN 40 AND 70, THEN TRANSMISSION ABRUPTLY DROPPED FROM 6TH/5TH GEAR TO 1ST GEAR. AS A RESULT, MY WHEELS LOCKED AND CAUSED THE VEHICLE TO SKID INTO THE LANE TO MY RIGHT, FORCING OTHER CARS TO SWERVE OUT OF MY WAY TO AVOID A HIGH SPEED COLLISION. IT HAPPENED SO FAST, AND WITHOUT WARNING, THAT IT WAS DIFFICULT TO UNDERSTAND WHAT WAS ACTUALLY OCCURRING. ONCE STOPPED (IN THE MIDDLE OF THE INTERSTATE), I DROVE TO THE MEDIAN, TURNED THE ENGINE OFF, SAT FOR A FEW MINUTES TO GATHER MY THOUGHTS, RESTARTED THE VEHICLE AND DROVE IT SLOWLY TO MY FORD DEALERSHIP (NOT ON THE HIGHWAY). AFTER INSPECTING MY TRUCK, THE FORD DEALERSHIP VERIFIED THE ISSUE AND STATED THE FOLLOWING (WRITTEN REPORT ATTACHED): RAN KOEC GOT CODE P0720 OSS SENSOR CIRCUIT FAULT, RAN PINPOINT TESTS, FOUND OPEN IN OSS SENSOR WHICH IS PART OF THE MOLDED LEAD FRAME ATTACHED TO THE VALVE BODY, REMOVED THE VALVE BODY, DISSASEMBLED, CLEANED AND INSPECTED THE VALUE BODY, ALL VALVES AND BORES ARE OK, REASSEMBLED VALVE BODY WITH NEW MOLDED LEAD FRAME ASSEMBLY AND NEW REVISED SEPARATOR PLATE GASKET, INSTALLED NEW CLUTCH FEED TUBE SEALS AND SEAL BETWEEN VALVE BODY AND FLUID PUMP, INSTALLED NEW FLUID FILTER AND PAN GASKET, FILLED TRANSMISSION WITH NEW FLUID REPROGRAMMED PCM AND CLEARED DTCS, VERIFIED REPAIRS. DESPITE PARALLELS TO THE PREVIOUS RECALL ISSUE, FORD INFORMED ME IT IS NOT COVERED (THERE IS NOTHING I COULD HAVE DONE TO PREVENT IT) AND THE TOTAL COST TO ME WAS $1,418.83. PLEASE EXPAND THE RECALL - IT WILL SAVE LIVES.

WHILE DRIVING THE VEHICLE IT WILL DOWNSHIFT FROM HIGHER GEARS AND THEN NO LONGER SHIFTS OR REGISTERS SPEED - WRENCH LIGHT WILL ILLUMINATE ON DASH. THE SPEEDOMETER WILL ALSO DROP DOWN TO ZERO AND NO LONGER REGISTER ANY SPEED EVEN THOUGH THE TRUCK IS MOVING. THE DIGITAL DISPLAY WILL DISPLAY DASHES AND THE AIR BAG LIGHT INDICATOR WILL STAY LITE. WHEN YOU UNBUCKLE THE SEAT BELT THE INDICATOR LIGHT WILL NOT ILLUMINATE. TOOK IT IN TO HAVE BATTERY TESTED AND HAD 100% CHARGE BUT READING INDICATED A BAD BATTERY SO HAD IT REPLACED BUT ISSUE STILL PRESENTED ITSELF AN HOUR LATER. ISSUE OCCURS INTERMITTENTLY AND WITHOUT WARNING. TOOK IT TO MECHANIC AND THEY HAD IT FOR TWO DAYS AND UNABLE TO REPLICATE SITUATION. ALSO TOOK IT TO DEALER AND WAS TOLD THEY COULDN'T DO ANYTHING IF THE ISSUE NEVER PRESENTED ITSELF WHILE THEY HAD THE TRUCK.

THE VEHICLE IS THEN STUCK INTO A SINGLE GEAR AND THE SPEEDOMETER AND MILEAGE COMPUTER GO BLANK SO I NO LONGER KNOW HOW FAST I'M TRAVELLING. MY VEHICLE ISSUE SEEMS VERY SIMILAR TO THE 2011-2012 FORD F-150 TRANSMISSION DOWNSHIFTING RECALL FROM BELOW. 'FEDERAL SAFETY REGULATORS ARE INVESTIGATING WHETHER TO REOPEN AND EXPAND A PREVIOUS FORD RECALL BY MORE THAN A MILLION VEHICLES FOR UNEXPECTED DOWNSHIFTING. THE INITIAL 2016 RECALL AFFECTED MORE THAN 153,000 FORD F-150, FORD EXPEDITION, LINCOLN NAVIGATOR AND FORD MUSTANG VEHICLES FROM THE 2011-12 MODEL YEARS.

TRUCK WAS HAVING ISSUES WITH RANDOMLY DISENGAGING FROM CRUISE CONTROL, LOSS OF POWER FROM A STOP, AND ERRATIC DOWNSHIFTING. ON THE HIGHWAY THE CRUISE CONTROL WOULD DISENGAGE, SPEEDOMETER WOULD GO TO 0 THEN BACK TO ITS ACTUAL SPEED. FROM A STOP SIGN/STOP LIGHT, WHEN THE LIGHT WOULD TURN GREEN THE TRUCK WOULD SPIT AND SPUTTER, SHIFTING ERRATICALLY, RPM WOULD GO UP BUT NO POWER. WHEN CRUISING AROUND 45MPH TRUCK DOWNSHIFTED FOR NO REASON CAUSING A LOUD CLUNKING SOUND, THIS HAPPENED TWICE CONSECUTIVELY. TOOK IS TO SIMMONS ROCKWELL TO GET IT DIAGNOSED, AFTER I HAD ALREADY RESEARCHED THE ISSUE AND KNEW WHAT IT WAS, AND THEY REPLACED THE MOLDED LEAD FRAME IN THE TRANSMISSION. THIS WAS EXACTLY THE ISSUE THEY HAD THAT CAUSED THE RECALL ON THE 2011/2012 MODELS. THE REPAIR COST WAS @ $500.

MY TRUCK DOWNSHIFTS WITHOUT CAUSE, SOMETIMES TO 1ST GEAR, AND ON ONE OCCASION MY WHEELS SKIDDED (WHICH WAS WITNESSED BY MY NEIGHBOR WHO WAS WALKING HIS DOG AND WAS STARTLED BY THE SKID). THE SPEEDOMETER GOES TO ZERO EVEN WHILE MOVING - I HAVE VIDEO FROM MY CELL PHONE OF THIS HAPPENING WHILE GOING APPROXIMATELY 75 MPH ON THE FREEWAY. WHEN THIS HAPPENS ALL OTHER GAUGES GO TO DASHES, INCLUDING THE MILEAGE, MPG, ETC. THE TRANSMISSION WILL SLIP INTO 2ND AND 5TH GEARS AND WILL NOT GO TO ANY OTHER GEARS. IT SOMETIMES REMAINS IN 3RD GEAR EVEN AT A DEAD STOP. TURNING THE TRUCK COMPLETELY OFF SOMETIMES "RESETS" THINGS, BUT ONLY TEMPORARILY. I HAVE CONTACTED A DEALER ABOUT THIS AND THEY LOOKED UP MY VIN AND TOLD ME THERE ARE NO RECALLS FOR MY TRUCK YEAR - EVEN THOUGH THE SAME TYPES OF THINGS WERE OCCURRING WITH 2011-12 F150'S, AND THOSE ARE THE SUBJECT OF A RECALL. THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE: IT HAPPENS WITHOUT WARNING, SOMETIMES ON THE FREEWAY TRAVELING AT HIGH SPEEDS, SOMETIMES WHILE SITTING AT A STOP LIGHT AND IT SHIFTS TO 3RD GEAR AND HARDLY WILL GET GOING. I CALLED FORD CUSTOMER SERVICE AND EXPLAINED EVERYTHING AND THEY SAID THEY WOULD REPORT TO NHTSA BUT SINCE IT IS OUT OF WARRANTY AND THERE IS NO RECALL, I WOULD MOST LIKELY BE RESPONSIBLE FOR THE COST OF REPAIR. I POINTED OUT A LETTER SENT BY NHTSA TO FORD ON JANUARY 18, 2018 ADDRESSING ISSUES WITH MY TRUCK MODEL AND YEAR, BUT THAT DID NOT CHANGE ANYTHING IN THE REPRESENTATIVE'S MIND. I BELIEVE THERE NEEDS TO BE CONSUMER PROTECTION ON THIS, BOTH FROM A SAFETY AND FINANCIAL ASPECT, BY NHTSA. I HAVE VIDEO OF WHAT HAPPENED ON THE FREEWAY WITH THE TRUCK DOWNSHIFTING TO 5TH GEAR AND REMAINING THERE, AND WHEN TRAFFIC SLOWED THE TRUCK DOWNSHIFTED TO 2ND GEAR AND WOULD NOT SHIFT TO ANY OTHER GEAR. I HAD TO PULL OFF THE FREEWAY WITH HAZARD LIGHTS FLASHING AND TURN OFF THE TRUCK AND RESTART IT TO TRY TO "RESET" THINGS.

MY TRANSMISSION HAS BEEN ACTING ERRATICALLY FOR THE PAST 30 DAYS. AT FIRST THE VEHICLE WOULD LOSE ACCELERATION AND THEN THE RPMS WOULD JUMP 2000, AFTER A COUPLE SECONDS I WOULD HEAR A LOUD THUMP AS THE TRANSMISSION REENGAGED; THE SPEEDOMETER ALSO REGISTERED 0 A COUPLE TIMES WHEN THIS HAPPENED. OTHER TIMES THE TRANSMISSION WOULD REFUSE TO LEAVE FIRST GEAR OR I WOULD LOSE POWER WHILE IN FIRST GEAR FOR APPROXIMATELY 10 SECONDS. THE WORST ISSUE HAPPENED WHEN I WAS DRIVING THE VEHICLE AT APPROXIMATELY 35 MPH WHEN THE TRANSMISSION SHIFTED INTO 1ST GEAR AND LOCKED UP MY REAR TIRES! THANKFULLY I DIDN'T GET REAR ENDED, OR WORSE, BEEN DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY; THERE IS NO WAY I COULD HAVE CONTROLLED THE VEHICLE AT HIGH SPEEDS AND COULD HAVE SERIOUSLY INJURED MYSELF OR OTHER DRIVERS. UNFORTUNATELY THESE TRANSMISSION ISSUES ARE INTERMITTENT AND DO NOT GENERATE ERROR CODES. I'VE BEEN TO TWO FORD DEALERS, THE FIRST COULD NOT REPLICATE THE ISSUE AND THE SECOND WAS ABLE TO DETERMINE THE ISSUE IS CAUSED BY A FAULTY ELECTRONIC CONTROL ASSEMBLY IN THE TRANSMISSION; THEY HAD TO SEARCH SERVICE BULLETINS IN ORDER TO FIGURE OUT WHAT IS HAPPENING. WHILE THIS SEEMS TO BE A COMMON COMPLAINT WITH FORD OWNERS, 2013 VEHICLES ARE NOT INCLUDED IN THE RECALL AND THEY WANT TO CHARGE ME $1412.75 TO FIX THE ISSUE. IN ADDITION, THIS IS A MAJOR SAFETY ISSUE.

Mileage: 100,000

WHILE DRIVING ON THE CITY STREET THE TRANSMISSION JUMPED FROM HIGHER GEAR TO A LOWER GEAR FOR NO REASON. TRANSMISSION SEEMS TO BE UNABLE TO DECIDE WHAT GEAR IT SHOULD BE IN AFTER STOPPING AT RED LIGHT. TRANSMISSION WOULD BE IN A HIGH GEAR AND ALMOST UNABLE TO TAKE OFF FROM A DEAD STOP. AFTER TURNING VEHICLE OFF AND CRANKING UP AGAIN IT SEEMED TO WORK FINE. THEN WHEN PULLING OUT ONTO THE HIGHWAY FROM A SIDE ROAD I ATTEMPTED TO GO AND MY TRUCK WOULD BARELY MOVE, I WAS ALMOST HIT BY AN ONCOMING VEHICLE BECAUSE MY TRUCK WOULD NOT GO INTO THE PROPER GEAR AND TAKE OFF AS DESIGNED TO. I AM AFRAID TO DRIVE IT ANYMORE BECAUSE I MAY GO TO TAKE OFF AND NOT BE ABLE TO AND GET HIT BY ONCOMING TRAFFIC. I ALSO AM AFRAID I MAY BE GOING DOWN THE ROAD AND THE TRANSMISSION JUMP INTO A LOWER GEAR AND CAUSE ME TO LOSE CONTROL AND HAVE A WRECK. THIS IS A VERY DANGEROUS PROBLEM TO HAVE.

135,987 MI. 2013 FORD F 150 ECONOBOOST POWERSTEERING ASSIT WENT OUT! NOTICE A TRACTION FAULT COUPLE DAYS AGO AND IT WENT AWAY AFTER I SHUT OFF MY TRUCK. THE STEERING NEVER DID THIS AND IT HAPPENED IN A PARKING LOT MAKING A SHARP LEFT TURN! AND THEN WHILE TRYING TO DRIVE OUT OF THE PARKING LOT TURNING OUT TO THE INTERSECTION NO POWER STEERING???? JUST LAST YEAR I HAD TO REPLACE MY THROTTLE BODY BECAUSE MY TRUCK WOULD GO LIMP WHILE DRIVING! WHY ISN'T THERE A RECAL ON THE STEERING FOR THIS YEAR?

WITHOUT WARNING MY REAR WHEELS & DRIVETRAIN LOCKED UP WHILE DRIVING. MY VEHICLE SUDDENLY LOST CONTROL AND I HAD TO DRIVE INTO THE GRASSY SHOULDER AT AROUND 35 MPH TO AVOID BEING IN TRAFFIC. AS THE PROBLEM WAS OCCURING, THE SPEEDOMETER WENT TO 0 MPH AND THE AIRBAG LIGHT ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE MILEAGE IN THE CLUSTER SHOWED ALL DASHES. THE TRANSMISSION FELT LIKE IT WAS DISCONNECTED FROM THE ENGINE, AND TRANSMISSION WAS STUCK IN 5TH GEAR AT LOW VEHICLE SPEEDS. I CYCLED THE IGNITION, AND TRUCK DROVE NORMALLY AFTER THAT. THIS IS AN INTERMITTENT PROBLEM AND VERY DANGEROUS TO DRIVE WITH AS VEHICLE WILL LOSE POWER AND TRANSMISSION CAN SHIFT TO 1ST GEAR AT HIGH VEHICLE SPEEDS. MY VEHICLE HAS THE 6R80 FAULTY TRANSMISSION WITH THE SAME TYPE OF 6R80 MOLDED LEAD FRAME DEFECT PROBLEM REPORTED IN PREVIOUS F150 MODEL YEARS. UPON CONTACTING DEALERSHIP THEY SEEMED LIKE THEY NEVER HEARD OF THE ISSUE BEFORE. FORD SHOULD ISSUE A RECALL FOR ALL VEHICLES WITH P0722 OUTPUT SHAFT SPEED SENSOR DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLE CODES. A SIMPLE ELECTRICAL ISSUE ON A $100 PART SHOULD NOT CAUSE THIS TYPE OF DANGEROUS REACTION. SEE FORD TSB 13-4-9 AND 13-2-3 AND RECALL #16V248000 THAT SHOULD APPLY TO ALL 2013 F-150'S TOO.

WHILE DRIVING THE VEHICLE WILL DOWN SHIFT RANDOMLY. THIS HAS HAPPENED WHILE PULLING OUT INTO TRAFFIC AND WHILE DRIVING ON THE INTERSTATE CAUSING THE BACK WHEELS TO LOCK UP FOR A FEW SECONDS. I TOOK THE VEHICLE TO THE DEALERSHIP A FEW MONTHS AGO AND THEY SAID THEY DID NOT NOTICE ANYTHING WRONG. IT RECENTLY STARTED DOING IT AGAIN BUT AT A MUCH MORE FREQUENT RATE. UNFORTUNATELY, I AM NOT A MECHANIC AND HAVE NO CLUE WHY IT WOULD DOWNSHIFT FOR NO REASON. I STARTED READING ABOUT OTHERS HAVING THIS ISSUE AND EVEN RECALLS FOR THE YEAR PRIOR. THIS ISSUE IS VERY DANGEROUS AND I AM NOT SURE HOW MY LOCAL DEALER SENT ME ON MY WAY KNOWING THIS HAS BEEN AN ONGOING ISSUE.

TWO DAYS IN A ROW MY VEHICLE STALLED AFTER VIOLENTLY SHAKING THE STEERING WHEEL, I HAD A COMPLETE POWER LOSS. I COASTED TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD AND WAITED TO RESTART THE ENGINE. AFTER ABOUT 5 MINUTES I WAS ABLE TO RESTART MY VEHICLE. THE SECOND TIME IT HAPPENED I WAS ONE THE WAY TO THE DEALERSHIP. THE DEALERSHIP CALLED ME BACK TO INFORM ME THAT MY VEHICLE WAS DRIVEN FOR 26 MILES AND COULD NOT DUPLICATE. I HAVE BEEN RESEARCHING ONLINE TO SEE IF THERE HAVE BEEN ANY ISSUES. BACK IN 2013 AN INVESTIGATION WAS STARTED FOR THIS ISSUE. I SPOKE WITH THE DEALERSHIP AND THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT TOLD ME THEY COULD NOT DO ANYTHING BECAUSE THE CARS COMPUTERS DID NOT THROW A CODE. NOT ONLY DID NOTHING HAPPEN FORD DID NOT MENTION ANY TSB THAT WOULD HELP OR FIX THIS ISSUE, AFTER I ASKED ABOUT ANY TSB THAT WOULD HELP OR FIX. STILL I GOT NOTHING FROM THE DEALERSHIP.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 FORD F-150. WHEN THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL WAS DEPRESSED, THE VEHICLE FAILED TO PICK UP SPEED AND STALLED. THE CONTACT HAD TO COAST THE VEHICLE OVER TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD AND RESTART THE VEHICLE. THE SECOND TIME THE VEHICLE STALLED WHILE DRIVING OVER 50 MPH, AND THE OIL INDICATOR ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS UNABLE TO BE RESTARTED AFTER COASTING OVER TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO A DEALER (LEVITTOWN FORD, LLC, 3195 HEMPSTEAD TURNPIKE, LEVITTOWN, NY 11756, (866) 421-1288) WHO REPLACED THE FUSE AND RE-WIRED THE FUSE BOX PER A TSB. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED AND STATED THAT THEY WOULD FOLLOW UP WITH A RESPONSE WITHIN 48 HOURS. THE CONTACT WANTED TO KNOW WHY A TSB HAD BEEN ISSUED AND IF THE DEALER STATED THIS WAS A KNOWN ISSUE, BUT THERE WAS NO RECALL ISSUED YET BY THE MANUFACTURER.

WHILE TRAVELING ON INTERSTATE AT APPROXIMATELY 70 MPH, SPEEDOMETER SUDDENLY WENT TO ZERO AND TRANSMISSION SHIFTED FROM 6TH GEAR TO 1ST GEAR CAUSING THE REAR WHEELS TO SLIDE FROM THE SUDDEN DECELERATION, NEARLY CAUSING AN ACCIDENT. VEHICLE HAD PREVIOUSLY BEEN TAKEN TO DEALERSHIP FOR SERVICE DUE TO A SIMILAR ISSUE WHERE THE INDICATED SPEED WOULD SUDDENLY CHANGE WHILE TRAVELING AT CONSTANT SPEED AND THE TRANSMISSION WOULD DOWNSHIFT 2 OR MORE GEARS IN RESPONSE. PCM WAS REPROGRAMMED AT THAT TIME BUT THE ISSUE WOULD STILL OCCUR PERIODICALLY. DEALERSHIP IS NOW REPLACING THE TRANSMISSION MOLDED LEADFRAME AT A COST OF OVER $1000. THIS DEFECT IS IDENTICAL TO FORD SAFETY RECALL 16S19, BUT THE RECALL ONLY COVERS YEAR MODEL 2011 & 2012 VEHICLES. THIS IS A MAJOR SAFETY ISSUE THAT NEEDS TO BE COVERED BE A RECALL.

Mileage: 80,000

I AM EXPERIENCING THE EXACT SAME PROBLEM WITH MY 2013 FORD F-150 XLT AS THOSE THAT HAVE BEEN RECALLED IN THE 2011 AND 2012 MODELS. MY TRUCK WAS ALSO BUILT IN DEARBORN, MICHIGAN AND HAS THE 6R80 TRANSMISSION. I TOOK MY TRUCK INTO THE DEALERSHIP THIS WEEK TO FIND THAT THE LEAD FRAME NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE DEALER IS REPLACING THE POWERTRAIN CONTROL MODULE SOFTWARE AND THE LEAD FRAME AT MY COST OF $1,362 . THE PROBLEM: A PROBLEM WITH THE OUTPUT SPEED SENSOR ON THE VEHICLE'S TRANSMISSION LEAD FRAME COULD CAUSE THE TRANSMISSION CONTROLS TO FORCE A TEMPORARY DOWNSHIFT INTO 1ST GEAR. DEPENDING ON THE SPEED OF THE VEHICLE AT THE TIME OF THE DOWNSHIFT, THE DRIVER COULD EXPERIENCE AN ABRUPT SPEED REDUCTION THAT COULD CAUSE THE REAR TIRES TO SLIDE OR LOCK UP, RESULTING IN LOSS OF VEHICLE CONTROL AND INCREASING THE RISK OF A CRASH. EARLIER THIS WEEK ON MULTIPLE OCCASIONS, MY TRUCK WILL NOT SHIFT OUT OF FIRST GEAR AFTER COMING TO A STOP. I WAS NEARLY INVOLVED IN AN ACCIDENT DUE TO THIS PROBLEM WHEN I WAS UNABLE TO ACCELERATE FROM A STOP LIGHT AND THERE WAS NO PLACE FOR ME TO PULL OVER. THE PROBLEM ONLY CORRECTS ITSELF WHEN I SHUT THE ENGINE OFF AND RESTART IT.

AS I AM DRIVING THE 2013 FORD F-150 RAPTOR 6.2L THE GEARS SEEM TO BE OFF, IF I AM DRIVING ONLY 30MPH THE GEAR IS AT 6. ALSO THE MORE DANGEROUS AND SCARY THING IS THAT IT SHIFTS DOWN WITHOUT ANY WARNING, I WAS TRAVELING ABOUT 35MPH AND THE GEAR SEEM TO SHIFT DOWN TO 1 LOCKING MY REAR TIRES AND MAKING ME SKID ALMOST CAUSING THE VEHICLE BEHIND ME TO RUN INTO ME. THE TIRES LOCKED ALMOST AS IF I PUT THE BRAKES ON. I'M GLAD I WAS ONLY GOING 35MPH BUT WHAT IF I'M GOING 80, THIS WOULD BE A MORE DANGEROUS AND SCARY SCENARIO. IT ALSO HAPPENED WHEN I TURNED ON TO A STREET AND AS I STARTED TO ACCELERATE IT DROPPED MY GEAR TO 1, LOCKED MY WHEELS AND ACTED LIKE IT DIDN'T WANT TO SHIFT OR ACCELERATE , I PULLED OFF TO THE SIDE OF ROAD, I SAT THERE FOR A FEW MINUTES WONDERING WHAT HAPPENED AND WENT ON MY WAY NERVOUS IF IT WILL HAPPEN AGAIN, WHICH IT DIDN'T AND MADE IT HOME. NEXT DAY I TOOK TO FORD AND THEY SAID THEY CANT DUPLICATE THE ISSUE SO THERE IS NOTHING WE CAN DO. THIS IS SCARY , I DON'T FELL SAFE WITH ME AND MY SON IN THIS VEHICLE. WHAT COULD BE CAUSING THIS DANGEROUS SITUATION? WHAT IS MY NEXT OPPOSITION TO GET THIS FIXED. THANK YOU

DRIVING ON INTERSTATE AT ROUGHLY 70 MPH WITH CRUISE CONTROL ENGAGED, TRUCK LOST POWER AND STARTED TO COAST. SPEEDOMETER SWEPT TO 0 INDICATED SPEED, TACHOMETER INDICATED ENGINE AT IDLE SPEED, AROUND 1000 RPM, WHILE COASTING FROM 70 MPH SLOWING TO ROUGHLY 40 MPH. VEHICLE REGAINED POWERED DRIVE BRIEFLY THEN AGAIN LOST POWER AND COASTED. AFTER RESUMING COASTING, THE BACK TIRES THEN BREIFLY LOCKED UP, VEHICLE SHUDDERED, THEN RESUMED COASTING. EXTREMELY DANGEROUS AS VEHICLE BEING DRIVEN IN TRAFFIC ON INTERSTATE AND BECAME NEARLY UNCONTROLLABLE. EXPLANATION FROM DEALER SERVICE DEPARTMENT WAS THAT THE WIRING HARNESS FROM TRANSMISSION TO ECU PASSES THROUGH FIREWALL THROUGH A GROMMET THAT IS KNOWN TO FAIL. THE WIRING CHAFES AND CAUSES A SHORT AND THE TRANSMISSION TO MALFUNCTION. APPARENTLY A TSB IS ISSUED FOR REPAIR AT CUSTOMER'S EXPENSE PER DEALER BUT I HAVE NOT BEEN ABLE TO FIND IT. THIS APPEARS TO BE A PROVERBIAL TICKING TIMEBOMB FOR F150 OWNERS AND SHOULD ABSOLUTELY BE SUBJECT TO A RECALL.

Mileage: 72,000

THE VEHICLE DID NOT SHIFT TO THE APPROPRIATE GEAR AND ACTED ERRATICALLY. THE RPMS MIGHT SPIKE BUT THE TRUCK DID NOT ACCELERATE. OTHER TIMES THE RPMS DROPPED TO ZERO EVEN WHEN I DEPRESSED THE GAS PEDAL. AFTER FIRST REPLACING THE SPARK PLUGS, THE DEALERSHIP REPLACED THE LEAD FRAME FOR A TOTAL OUT OF POCKET COST OF APPROXIMATELY $1,100. I WAS LUCKY THAT THE PROBLEM MANIFESTED ITSELF AT LOWER SPEEDS IN TOWN. THIS COULD EASILY HAVE BEEN A SERIOUS SAFETY PROBLEM UNDER OTHER CONDITIONS SUCH AS TOWING A CAMPER/TRAILER OR AT HIGH SPEEDS. I SEE THERE WAS A LEAD FRAME RECALL ON THE 2012 F150S. IT SEEMS APPROPRIATE THAT THIS RECALL WOULD ALSO BE APPLICABLE TO THE 2013S.

WHILE DRIVING DOWN THE HIGHWAY, THE VEHICLE FLASHED SERVICE ADVANCE TRAC, DOWN HILL DESCENT CONTROL FAULT, TRAILER BRAKE MODULE FAIL AND A COUPLE MORE CODES. ALL ELECTONICS IN VEHICLE WENT BLANK, INCLUDING ALL CONTROLS/GAUGES. BEFORE DOING SO, LAST CODE READ, SHIFT TO PARK. ALMOST CAUSED ME TO HAVE AN ACCIDENT, BECAUSE THE POWER STEERING WENT OUT AND NEARLY PULLED ME INTO ANOTHER VEHICLE. THE ACCELERATION IS BAD TOO, FEELS LIKE IT IS NOT FIRING ALL CYLINDERS AGAIN. HAVE ALREADY TAKEN IN FOR A NUMBER OF ISSUES, INCLUDING CRANKSHAFT SENSOR ISSUES(WAS LOSING POWER TO DRIVELINE); BRAKES LOCKING UP (HAVE REPLACED THE ROTORS AND PADS SIX TIMES AND LAST TIME I REPLACED BOTH CALIBERS AS WELL; POWER STEERING HAS BEEN REPLACED ONCE BEFORE, FRONT AXLES AND BEARINGS REPLACED. AS WELL AS, AC PROBLEMS. WHEN THE FIRST ISSUES AROSE, I WAS TOLD BY SERVICE TECH AT DEALERSHIP I NEEDED A NEW ENGINE, (LATER HE COMPLETELY DENIED TELLING ME THIS) INSTEAD THEY FIXED SOME THINGS AND GAVE IT BACK TO ME. PROBLEMS HAVE CONTINUED SINCE, LIKE I SAID HAVE TAKEN IT IN AT LEAST 6 TIMES TO A DEALER AND ONCE TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC. AT FIRST THE PROBLEMS WERE COVERED BY WARRENTY, NOW THEY ARE NOT, THERE IS ONLY 78,000MILES ON THE TRUCK AND HAS BEEN IN SHOP AT LEAST 6 TIMES AND IS ONLY 4 YRS OLD. NOT SURE WHAT TO DO, AS THE PROBLEMS RESEMBLE RECALL ISSUES, BUT DEALERSHIP SAYS THEY AREN'T PART OF ANY RECALLS. CONCERNED FOR MY SAFETY ON THE ROAD.

THE TRUCK WILL DOWN SHIFT WHILE DRIVING. IT HAS HAPPENED A FEW TIMES NOW. I WAS DRIVING ABOUT 30MPH AND EXPERIENCED A DROP IN POWER AND THE GAUGES STARTED JUMPING ALL OVER. IT ALSO DROPPED TO 1ST GEAR WHEN I WAS ON THE HIGHWAY DOING 70 MPH. IT FELT LIKE SOMEONE THREW THE E-BREAK. QUICK JERKING MOTION. I HAD TO PULL OVER AND SHUT THE TRUCK OFF. THANKFULLY MY FAMILY WAS NOT IN THE VEHICLE AND NO ONE WAS DIRECTLY BEHIND ME. THE FEW OTHER TIMES IT HAPPENED I NOTICED SOMETHING GOING WRONG SO I QUICKLY PULLED OFF THE ROAD AND SHUT IT DOWN. TURNING IT OFF SEEMED TO "RESET" THINGS AND LET ME GET HOME. I HAD A DIAGNOSTIC RAN AND IT CODED #4 SPARK PLUG AND #4 COIL. I HAD BOTH OF THOSE REPLACED - AND EXPERIENCED THE SAME ISSUE THE VERY NEXT DAY! RAN ANOTHER DIAGNOSTIC AND IT CODED THE SAME WAY! TOOK IT TO A FORD DEALERSHIP TO CHECK IT OUT AND THEIR FINAL ANSWER WAS "NEEDS A NEW ENGINE". IT HAS 110K MILES ON IT AND I BOUGHT IT LESS THAN 1 YEAR AGO AND IT NEEDS A NEW ENGINE? I HAVE $700 WRAPPED UP IN REPLACING PARTS THAT DID NOT NEED REPLACING AND DIAGNOSTICS THAT DID NOT GIVE ME A REALISTIC SOLUTION. THIS DOES NOT SOUND LIKE AN ENGINE ISSUE- SOUNDS VERY SIMILAR TO THE RECENT RECALL ON THE 2011-2012 MODELS. TRUCK IS PARKED IN THE DRIVEWAY. NO ONE IN MY FAMILY WILL BE DRIVING IT. HOPE TO HEAR THAT FORD RECOGNIZES THE BIGGER ISSUE HERE AND STEPS UP TO TAKE CARE OF THIS.

ON TWO OR THREE DIFFERENT OCCURRENCES, WHEN ACCELERATING TO PASS OR MERGE, THE TRUCK ENGINE SHUDDERED AND FAILED TO PROVIDE POWER NECESSARY TO ACCELERATE. NEVER DID IT COMPLETELY STALL, BUT THERE WAS A NOTICEABLE SHUDDERING OF THE ENGINE AND THE TRUCK FELT LIKE IT WAS RIDING OVER ROUGH PAVEMENT. I HAD READ ABOUT THIS ISSUE WITH THE ECOBOOST ENGINE IN THE F150 (UNFORTUNATELY AFTER I BOUGHT THE TRUCK) BUT HAD NEVER EXPERIENCED IT UNTIL YESTERDAY.

2013- FORD F150 ECOBOOST: I WAS DRIVING ALONG AT HIGHWAY 100KM/HOUR HIGHWAYS SPEED. I CAME UPON A CAR GOING 70KM/HR. IT WAS SAFE TO PASS, AND AS I STEPPED ON THE GAS TO ACCELERATE, MY TRUCK LOST COMPLETE POWER AND DECELERATED TO ABOUT 40 KM/HR, EVENTUALLY SLOWING RIGHT DOWN. I TRIED FRANTICALLY TO PUSH THE GAS, AS THERE WERE TWO SEMI TRUCKS BEHIND ME TRYING TO PASS AT THE SAME TIME AS ME. THE TRUCKS BOTH ENDED UP HAVING TO PASS ME UNSAFELY ON THE SHOULDER TO THE LEFT OF ME, INTO ONCOMING TRAFFIC. I WAS ABLE TO GLIDE OVER BACK TO THE LANE I WAS IN, AND EVENTUALLY RODE THE SHOULDER. I CONTINUALLY TRIED TO GET POWER TO THE VEHICLE. MY ENGINE LIGHT WAS FLASHING. EVENTUALLY AFTER SEVERAL ATTEMPTS, MY TRUCK DID "GRAB" AND SHOOT FORWARD. THE ENGINE LIGHT THEN WENT OFF, AND FOR THE REMAINDER OF MY DRIVE, THE TRUCK WAS FINE. AGAIN, TWO DAYS LATER, THE TRUCK DID THE SAME THING, BUT AT SLOWER SPEEDS IN TOWN. AS I READ INTO THE ISSUE, I FOUND THAT THIS IS A "COMMON" PROBLEM???? MY SITUATION TOO WAS DURING RAINY/WET WEATHER, LONG DISTANCE HIGHWAYS THE FIRST TIME, AND WET WEATHER, IN TOWN, THE SECOND TIME. THIS IS A SEVERELY DANGEROUS ISSUE. I TOO BROUGHT MY TRUCK TO THE SHOP AND WAS TOLD THAT THIS ISSUE WAS BEING INVESTIGATED AND THAT FORD HAD SOLUTION TO TRY. WHAT BOGGLES MY MIND IS THAT THERE ARE "SOLUTION" TO TRY, WHICH MEANS THIS PROBLEM WAS KNOWN, YET WHEN I BOUGHT THE TRUCK THE DEALERSHIP DID NOT MAKE ONE SINGLE MENTION, EVEN WHEN I ASKED IF THEY HAD HEARD OF ANY ISSUES WITH THE ECOBOOST SYSTEM! THE SHOP JUST UPDATED THE COMPUTER, AN A DAY LATER, IT HAPPEN AGAIN! :) I'M NO LONGER DRIVING MY TRUCK ON THE HIGHWAY. NOT SURE WHO TO CONTACT TO RETURN MY TRUCK. I DON'T EVEN WANT IT ANYMORE! *TR

THE FIRST TIME THE INCIDENT HAPPEN I WAS DRIVING ABOUT 30 MPH ON A BRIGHT SUNNY DAY ABOUT 70 DEGREES OUT. I TRIED TO GO AROUND A CAR AND WHEN PRESSED THE ACCELERATOR THE VEHICLE KIND OF STALLED AND SHOOK, DID NOT ACCELERATE AT ALL. I LET OFF THE PEDAL AND TRIED AGAIN AND IT ACCELERATED FINE. THERE WASN'T MUCH DANGER INVOLVED IN THIS MISHAP AS THE OTHER DRIVER AND I WERE THE ONLY 2 VEHICLES ON THE ROAD FOR A FARE AMOUNT OF DISTANCE. THE SECOND TIME THIS HAPPENED IS WHAT REALLY WORRIED ME. I WAS LEAVING A GAS STATION PREPARING TO CROSS A 4 LANE HIGHWAY WITH A SPEED LIMIT OF 55 MPH. THIS TIME IT WAS MORNING ABOUT 65 DEGREES AND SUNNY, I ROLLED UP TO THE INTERSECTION AND WHEN AN OPPORTUNITY TO CROSS WAS PRESENTED I PRESSED ON THE ACCELERATOR AND THE VEHICLE SHOOK PRETTY BAD AND THE ENGINE ABOUT DIED. I HIT THE BRAKE AND THE ENGINE WORKED ITSELF OUT OF THE SHAKE. THAT'S WHEN I REALIZED THIS ISSUE IS LIFE THREATENING. IF I WOULD HAVE PRESSED THE ACCELERATOR AND THE VEHICLE BROUGHT ME TO THE CENTER OF THE HIGHWAY AND STALLED THERE IS A VERY GOOD CHANCE I COULD HAVE BEEN T-BONED! AND TO TOP IT OFF ANOTHER ISSUE I HAVE BEEN HAVING WITH MY 2013 FORD F-150 PLATINUM IS THE BLUETOOTH IS RARELY CAPABLE OF SYNCING TO MY IPHONE, SO I WERE TO BE T-BONED THE VEHICLE WOULD HAVE BEEN INCAPABLE OF UTILIZING ITS 911 ASSIST FEATURE AND THE INJURED INVOLVED IN THE ACCIDENT WOULD HAVE TO RELY ON A WITNESS DIALING 911. *TR

I WAS DRIVING MY NEW 2013 F150 ECOBOOST IN THE RAIN AND I TRIED TO PULL TO THE LEFT TO PASS A SLOWER CAR ON THE HIGHWAY. AS I WENT TO GIVE IT GAS, ABOUT 90% THROTTLE, THE TRUCK FELT LIKE IT HIT A BRICK WALL, STUTTERED AND STARTED SHAKING. THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON AND I WAS UNABLE TO DRIVE THE CAR ABOUT 55 MPH. IF I TRIED TO DRIVE PAST THAT IT WOULD JUST SHAKE. THE TRUCK HAD NO POWER. I DROVE IT LIKE THIS FOR ABOUT FIVE MINUTES AND THEN THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT WENT OFF AND EVERYTHING WAS OK. ON THE WAY BACK ABOUT A WEEK LATER, ONCE AGAIN IN THE RAIN, THE SAME THING HAPPENED. SINCE THEN I HAVE TRIED TO DUPLICATE THIS IN DRY CONDITIONS AND THE TRUCK PERFORMS PERFECT. ONLY WHEN IT IS WET OUTSIDE DOES THIS PROBLEM HAPPEN. *TR

JUST BOUGHT THIS TRUCK FOR A GREAT DEAL OF MONEY. THIS HAS HAPPENED SEVERAL TIMES, WITH BOTH MY WIFE AND I. DRIVING AT LOW AND HIGHER SPEEDS TRYING TO MERGE OR PASS ANOTHER VEHICLE. AS WE APPLY THE ACCELERATOR TO PASS OR MERGE THERE IS A LOSE OF POWER AND THE TRUCK ALMOST STALLS. WE HAVE ALMOST BEEN IN 6 ACCIDENTS BECAUSE OF THIS ISSUE. I TOOK MY TRUCK BACK TO PHIL LONG OF COLORADO SPRINGS, CO. AND WAS TOLD I WAS LYING AND THEY HAVE NOT HAD ANY OTHER COMPLAINTS AND THEY COULD LOOK AT IT FOR $150.00 AS MY TRUCK IS BRAND NEW AND STILL UNDER WARRANTY, IM NOT HAPPY I CANT DRIVE MY TRUCK SAFELY AND FEEL LIKE FORD HAS LET ME DOWN. DON'T SEEM TO BE GETTING ANY POST SALE CUSTOMER SERVICE. PLEASE HELP. *TR

WHILE DRIVING IN RAINY CONDITIONS AT 55 MPH, THE DRIVER ACCELERATED WHICH KICKED INTO PASSING GEAR. AT THIS TIME THE STEERING WHEEL BEGAN TO SHAKE VIOLENTLY, THE VEHICLE LOST ALL POWER (THOUGH REMAINED ON) AND DECELERATED TO ABOUT 45 MPH ON IT'S OWN. THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT BEGAN BLINKING AND REMAINED LIT FOR APPX 1 MINUTE. ONCE IT WENT OFF THE VEHICLE REGAINED NORMAL OPERATIONS. HOWEVER, WHEN ATTEMPTING TO ACCELERATE AGAIN THE SAME ISSUE OCCURRED. THE NEXT DAY IN DRY CONDITIONS THE SAME SITUATION OCCURRED WHEN ACCELERATING QUICKLY TO PASS ONLY THIS TIME THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT STAYED ON. THE SAME SITUATION HAS NOT OCCURRED AGAIN, THOUGH THE LIGHT REMAINS ON. IT IS SCHEDULED TO GO INTO THE DEALERSHIP TONIGHT. *TR

WHILE MERGING ONTO A HIGHWAY VIA AN ON RAMP IN RAINY CONDITIONS I WAS ALMOST INVOLVED IN AN ACCIDENT WHEN MY 2013 FORD F150 ECOBOOST EQUIPPED TRUCK LOST POWER AND WOULD NOT ACCELERATE. I WAS FORCED TO THE SHOULDER AS THE APPROACHING TRACTOR TRAILER WAS UNABLE TO STOP IN TIME AND THE IMPENDING COLLISION WOULD HAVE CAUSED SERIOUS HARM TO MY FAMILY. THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT FLASHED FOR A FEW MOMENTS AS WE DROVE SLOWLY ON THE SHOULDER AND THEN IT WENT OFF. NO FURTHER HIGHWAY TRAVEL WAS USED FOLLOWING THIS POTENTIALLY CATASTROPHIC INCIDENT DUE TO THE RAINY CONDITIONS. ONE ADDITIONAL INCIDENT OCCURRED WITH THE TRUCK ONE MONTH PRIOR BUT DID NOT RESULT IN THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT. WHEN PULLING OUT OF A PARKING LOT ONTO A BUSY STREET THE TRUCK HESITATED FOR A FEW MOMENTS BEFORE FINALLY ACCELERATING. WHEN THE TRUCK FINALLY RESPONDED A LARGE SMOKE CLOUD APPEARED BEHIND THE TRUCK AND THE ENGINE REVVED MUCH HIGHER THAN NORMAL. UNTIL THE RECENT EVENT WE THOUGHT IT WAS AN ISOLATED INCIDENT. THERE WAS NO RAIN OR EXCESSIVE MOISTURE IN THE AIR ON THIS PARTICULAR DAY. *TR

MAY 22, 2013- WHILE DRIVING SOUTH ON I-55 AND MERGING ONTO I-12, I WAS TRAVELING APPROXIMATELY 35 MPH WHEN I GAVE THE TRUCK GAS TO ACCELERATE INTO ONCOMING INTERSTATE TRAFFIC OF 70+ MPH. MY TRUCK COMPLETELY WENT LIMP AND I COULD NOT ACCELERATE AT ALL WITH THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT COMING ON. I WAS IN REAL TROUBLE AT THIS POINT SO I PULLED OFF WITH ONE TIRE IN THE GRASS TO AVOID A SERIOUS ACCIDENT AND POTENTIALLY BEING KILLED. APPROXIMATELY 1 MINUTE LATER THE TRUCK REGAINED POWER AND I CONTINUED TO MY DESTINATION WITH THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT GOING BACK OFF. MAY 23, 2013- I CALLED FORD DEALERSHIP WHERE I BOUGHT MY VEHICLE AND THEY EXPLAINED TO ME THAT NOTHING WAS WRONG IF THE WARNING LIGHT WENT OFF. STATING THE SYSTEM DOES THIS AS AN ENVIRONMENTAL PRECAUTION? MAY 28, 2013- I WAS TRAVELING IN GALVESTON, TX AT 25 MPH WHEN THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON AGAIN. I DID ATTEMPT TO GIVE IT GAS TO SEE IF THE SAME PROBLEM WAS OCCURRING AND IT ONCE AGAIN WOULD NOT RESPOND WITH THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT STAYING ON PERMANENTLY THIS TIME. I PARKED MY TRUCK FOR WORK UNTIL JUNE 11, 2013. I TOOK A PICTURE OF MY DASH TO DOCUMENT THE WARNING LIGHT. CALLED FORD DEALERSHIP @ 7:20 A.M. ON 6/10/13 EXPLAINING MY SITUATION. HE STATED THAT OVER THE PHONE IT SOUNDS LIKE THE INNER COOLER. HE EXPLAINED TO ME THAT IT IS NOT DANGEROUS AND NOT TO WORRY. HE SAID THE PART WAS AN UPDATED PART AND THEY WOULD HAVE TO RUN DIAGNOSTICS TO KNOW THE PROBLEM FOR SURE. DROPPED TRUCK OFF AT FORD DEALERSHIP @ 11:10 A.M. ON 6/12/13. RECEIVED PHONE CALL FROM FORD @ 3:20 ON 6/13/2012. THEY TOLD ME THAT IT WAS NOT MY INNER COOLER BECAUSE MY TRUCK HAS THIS SO CALLED UPDATED INNER COOLER AND THEY REPLACED MY CATALYTIC CONVERTER. THEY ASSURED ME THIS WAS FIXED AND WOULD NOT HAPPEN AGAIN SINCE THE SYSTEM WAS UPDATED. THE POWER LOSS HAPPENED TWO MORE TIMES SINCE AND HAS ME REALLY WORRIED TO DRIVE IT. *TR

6/08/13 WHILE TRAVELING FROM KINGSVILLE TO RIO HONDO AT 6 AM FOR A FISHING TRIP, I ACCELERATED HARD TO PASS A SEMI-TRUCK. MY F150 SHUDDERED VIOLENTLY IN THE BACK END, AND I FELT A SIGNIFICANT LOSS OF POWER. THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT BLINKED EXCESSIVELY BEFORE EXTINGUISHING. THE TRUCK RESUMED NORMAL OPERATION FAIRLY QUICKLY, WITHIN 5 SEC. I CONTINUED TO MY DESTINATION WITH NO FURTHER PROBLEMS, MAKING SURE TO LIMIT MY SPEED AND MAKE NO MORE HARD ACCELERATIONS. THE WEATHER WAS RAINY AND WET CONDITIONS. I INTENDED ON INVESTIGATING THIS ISSUE ONCE I RETURNED HOME. 6/09/13 THE TRUCK HAD BEEN PARKED AND NOT DRIVEN UNTIL MY DEPARTURE ON SUN, 2 PM. ON MY WAY HOME I WAS FORCED TO ACCELERATE QUICKLY ON HWY 77 ON RAMP FROM FM 107 TO KEEP UP WITH TRAFFIC. THE TRUCK ONCE AGAIN SHUDDERED VIOLENTLY AND THE A/C BEGAN BLOWING HOT AIR, THE LOSS OF POWER WAS MUCH MORE SIGNIFICANT THAN THE LAST EPISODE AND I WAS FORCED TO PULL ONTO SIDE OF HWY 77 TO AVOID BEING STRUCK BY TRAFFIC BEHIND ME. THE ENGINE LIGHT BLINKED AND CONTINUED TO STAY ON. THE TRUCK RESUMED NORMAL OPERATION; HOWEVER THE LENGTH OF TIME BEFORE THAT HAPPENED WAS MUCH LONGER THAN BEFORE. I WAS CERTAIN I WAS GOING TO BE STRANDED AND IT WAS NECESSARY FOR ME TO TAKE EMERGENCY MEASURES. THE WEATHER WAS HOT AND DRY. *TR

VEHICLE IS GETTING WAY BELOW ESTIMATED MPG. TRUCK IS BARELY GETTING 16 MPG WHILE THE FALSE ADVERTISEMENT SAYS THE TRUCK WILL GET 17-21 MPG. THIS IS A BRAND NEW TRUCK AND HAS THOSE FAR SHOWN FALSE ADVERTISEMENT IN GAS MILEAGE. ALONG WITH THE MPG, WHEN IN CRUISE CONTROL THE TRANSMISSION DOWN SHIFTS ALL THE WAY DOWN TO 2ND GEAR WHILE DRIVING AT 50 MPG LEAVING THE RPMS AT A HIGH RATE WHEN IT DOWN SHIFT. THERE IS SOMETHING WRONG WITH THE WAY THIS TRUCK DOWN SHIFTS IN CRUISE CONTROL. THIS NEEDS TO BE LOOKED INTO AS THIS IS NOT THE WAY A 50K PLUS TRUCK SHOULD BE DRIVING OR THE FALSE REPRESENTATION OF THE MPG THAT FORD HAS CLAIMED. IF I HAD KNEW THE MPG WOULD HAVE BEEN THIS BAD I WOULD HAVE CONSIDERED A DIFFERENT VEHICLE. *TR
