SON OF 19 WAS GOING AROUND 60 ON HIGHWAY WHEN HIS FORD F150 SHIFTED ITSELF INTO FIRST GEAR . LOCKING UP REAR END AND SENDING IT INTO A SKID.. IT WAS ONLY THROUGH HIS EXCELLENT DRIVING THAT HE AVOIDED AN ACCIDENT. NEVER HAD A NOTICE OF A RECALL ON THIS TRANSMISSION PROBLEM AND FORD WILL NOT HONOR RECALL AS THE TRUCK NOW HAS 174358 MILES ON IT. SAID THEY ONLY HONOR 150K OR LESS. BOUGHT TRUCK FROM FORD DEALER AT 124571 IN 2-11-19 AND SHOULD BEEN ADDRESS THEN. THE COMPANY HEADQUARTERS SAID TO CALL A LAWYER! THIS TRANSMISSION "PROBLEM" COULD HAVE BEEN FATAL AND MAY HAVE BEEN FOR OTHERS!

WHILE TURNING THE STEERING WHEEL, IT IS MAKING A NOISE LIKE SOMEONE IS USING AN AIR TOOL UNDER THE HOOD. I WAS DRIVING INTO WORK AND THE STEERING WHEEL WILL CATCH AND HANG UP SO YOU CAN NOT TURN ALL THE WAY. THIS ISSUE COULD BE VERY DANGEROUS IF IT DID THAT WHILE DRIVING IN TRAFFIC. I FEEL THAT THIS COULD BE A SERIOUS SAFETY CONCERN.

REAR GLASS EXPLODED WHILE THE REAR DEFROSTER WAS ON CAUSING GLASS TO COME IN THE VEHICLE. HAS TO BE SOMETHING DONE ABOUT THIS TO MAKE FORD RESPONSIBLE FOR THERE DEFECTIVE PRODUCT BEFORE SOMEONE GETS HURT BY THE SHARP GLASS SHARDS. I WAS DRIVING TO WORK IN THE EARLY MORNING

VEHICLE HAS 64,000 MILES. PULLED OUT OF DRIVEWAY AND HEARD A SOUND LIKE AN AIR COMPRESSOR TOOL. POWER STEERING WENT OUT AND POWER STEERING FAILURE LIGHT CAME ON. VEHICLE WAS MOVING LESS THAN 10 MPH WHILE TRYING TO TURN AROUND MAKING A LEFT HAND TURN.

TRAVELING DOWN THE HIGHWAY AT 70 MPH (POSTED SPEED LIMIT) WHEN WITHOUT WARNING MY TRUCK DOWNSHIFTS TO FIRST GEAR. LOSS OF POWER AND SPEED RESULTED IN THE DOWNSHIFT. I WENT FROM 70 MPH TO 35 MPH ON A MAJOR HIGHWAY QUICKLY. MY ENTIRE DASH, BESIDES THE TACHOMETER, WENT OUT AS WELL AS A RESULT OF THIS DOWNSHIFT. I WAS LUCKY I WAS TRAVELING EARLY IN THE MORNING (ABOUT 530 AM) AND TRAFFIC WAS LIGHT. OR ELSE I AM SURE SOMEONE WOULD HAVE HIT ME DUE TO RAPID DECELERATION. THE TRUCK WAS TRAVELING STRAIGHT AND NOT IN A TURN. AFTER THIS DECELERATION, I WAS BARELY ABLE TO MANAGE TO GET OFF TO THE SHOULDER OF THE HIGHWAY BECAUSE MY TRUCK WOULD NOT SHIFT OUT OF FIRST GEAR. IT HAD NO POWER TO MOVE THE VEHICLE AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS. IT ALSO FELT AS THOUGH IT HAD AFFECTED THE REST OF THE POWER ITEMS ON THE TRUCK, STEERING AND BRAKES ESPECIALLY. IT FELT AS THOUGH MY POWER STEERING WAS NOT WORKING AND TOOK A LOT OF EFFORT ON THE BRAKE PEDAL TO GET THE VEHICLE TO STOP FULLY. THE FORD RECALL # FOR THIS SPECIFIC PROBLEM IS 19S07, THE NHTSA # IS 19V075000. MY VEHICLE IS NO LONGER COVERED UNDER WHAT FORD DEEMED AS A "VOLUNTARY SAFETY RECALL", REPAIR ESTIMATES ARE $1185. I FIND IT RIDICULOUS THIS PROBLEM IS A VOLUNTARY SAFETY RECALL, THE ONLY REASON I WAS NOT INVOLVED IN A SERIOUS ACCIDENT IS BECAUSE OF THE TIME OF DAY I WAS TRAVELING.

HAVING VERY POOR BRAKING AND A HARD PEDAL FEELING WHEN STARTING TRUCK AFTER SITTING IN DRIVEWAY FOR A FEW HOURS. ISSUE OCCURS EACH TIME I START THE TRUCK. I CAN'T GET THE TIRES TO LOCK UP AND THE ANTILOCKS TO KICK IN NO MATTER HOW HARD I HIT THE BRAKES. A COUPLE OF TIMES WHILE BACKING OUT OF MY DRIVEWAY IT FELT LIKE THE POWER BREAKS WEREN'T EVEN WORKING AND I HAD TO JUMP ON THE PEDAL WITH BOTH FEET TO BRING HER TO A STOP BEFORE GOING OUT IN THE ROAD OR HITTING A CHILD.

7/25/2019: SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA -- NORTHBOUND HWY 101, HEADED HOME FROM GLENDALE TO OXNARD. SO-CAL TRAFFIC BEING WHAT IT IS, TRAVEL WAS STOP & GO, WITH BRIEF BURSTS OF ACTUAL SPEED-LIMIT TRAVEL. I WAS DOING ABOUT 55MPH, COMING TO A BOTTLENECK WHERE TRAFFIC WAS ACCUMULATING. I GENTLY PRESSED THE BRAKE PEDAL, WHEN MY TRUCK DOWNSHIFTED. I WAS EXPECTING A 5-4 DOWNSHIFT, BUT INSTEAD MY TRUCK SLAMMED INTO 1ST GEAR, TIRES LOCKED. I SKID TO A STOP, DUMBFOUNDED. DURING DECELERATION, THERE WAS A GRINDING NOISE, SO I PULLED OVER & CHECKED THINGS OUT. I'M NOT A MECHANIC, BUT I CHECKED ALL THE FLUIDS AND TRANS TEMP, WHICH WERE ALL IN OPERATING RANGE. I DROVE GENTLY THE REST OF THE WAY HOME, FEARING THAT IT MIGHT HAPPEN AGAIN, BUT IT DIDN'T. THE NEXT MORNING WHEN I LEFT TO WORK, THERE WAS A LOUD WHINE THAT SEEMED TO BE COMING FROM THE TRANSMISSION AT HIGHER RPM, JUST PRIOR TO UPSHIFT. I DROVE GENTLY TO WORK AND BACK HOME LATER THAT EVENING. THE FOLLOWING DAY WAS SATURDAY, 7/27/19: TOOK MY TRUCK TO A LOCAL SHOP, WHERE THEY TOLD ME THAT MY TRANSMISSION WAS SHOWING SIGNS OF RAPID FAILURE AND THAT IF I CONTINUED TO DRIVE IT THAT IT MIGHT LAST ANOTHER WEEK, IF I WAS LUCKY & THAT MY TRUCK WOULD ONE DAY SOON, LEAVE ME STRANDED ON THE SIDE OF THE FWY. THE FOLLOWING WEEK I ORDERED A REMANUFACTURED TRANSMISSION, TO THE TUNE OF ABOUT $3000. A MONTH LATER, MY MECHANIC BROTHER-IN-LAW & I SWAPPED OUT THE TRANNY, INCLUDING THE TORQUE CONVERTER & TRANNY COOLER. THEN I HAD TO HAVE IT TOWED TO THE MECHANIC S

AFTER EXPERIENCING A SPEED SENSOR FAILURE IN MY FORD F-150, I TOOK IT TO A LOCAL DEALER TO HAVE THE RECALLED PART REPLACED (SPEED SENSOR/LEAD FRAME). THEY DID NOT REPLACE THE PART, INSTEAD FLASHED THE SENSOR WITH NEW SOFTWARE. THE NEXT DAY, ENCOUNTERED A RELATED ISSUE, AFTER TAKING IT BACK, THE SERVICE REP STATED THAT IT SEEMS TO BE THE LEAD FRAME AND WOULD BE COVERED BY FORD BUT DID NOT OFF AN ADDITIONAL APPOINTMENT, ADVISED TO CALL BACK IF THE PROBLEM PERSISTS. I HAVE CONTINUED HAVING THESE ISSUES. ISSUE: VEHICLE STOPS SHIFTING, LOCKS INTO THE GEAR THAT IT IS IN, SPEEDOMETER STOPS WORKING, ALL DATA GOES BLANK AND TRANSMISSION ACTS LIKE IT SLIPS. THEN, STOP THE VEHICLE, TURN IT OFF, RESTART, THEN RUNS FINE UNTIL NEXT OCCURRENCE. AFTER MUCH MUCH RESEARCH AND AGREED DISCUSSION WITH THE SERVICE REP AT 2 DIFFERENT DEALERSHIPS, IT DISPLAYS THE EXACT SYMPTOMS OF THE LEAD FRAME WHICH IS MENTIONED IN THE RECALL ISSUED RELATED TO THIS ISSUE. 2 DIFFERENT DEALERSHIPS HAVE NOW REFUSED TO REPLACE THE PART BECAUSE THE ERROR CODE IS NOT PRESENT WHEN I GET THE VEHICLE THERE AND THAT IS BECAUSE I HAVE TO GET THE ISSUE TO CLEAR SO I CAN CONTINUE DRIVING IT. I HAVE ALSO CONTACTED FORD MOTOR CO. CUSTOMER SERVICE AND HAVE HAD THE ISSUE ESCALATED 3 TIMES, EACH TIME THEY COME BACK WITH A RESPONSE "THERE ARE NO CURRENT PROGRAMS AVAILABLE TO ASSIST" EVEN THOUGH THERE IS A FORD ISSUED RECALL ISSUED IN FEB. 2019. I HAVE ALSO WAITED FOR A WEEK FOR A CALL BACK FROM THE SERVICE MANAGER BUT NO RESPONSE. T

TRIED TO SHUT VEHICLE OFF AND IT WOULD NOT SHUT OFF ONCE I DID GET IT TO SHUT OFF IT WOULD NOT RESTART.ALSO ALL THE WARNING LIGHTS ON THE DASH WERE ARE GOING OFF.

DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD EARLY THIS MORNING WHEN I HEAR A SUDDEN *POP* AND MY REAR GLASS SHATTERED. CAR WAS GOING APPROXIMATELY 45 MPH AND IN A STRAIGHT LINE, WITH NO OTHER VEHICLES OR OBJECTS NEAR. THE CAR WAS SITTING IN THE SHADE IN FRONT OF MY HOUSE OVER NIGHT. FROST HAD BEEN ON THE WINDOWS, SO NATURALLY THE HEAT AND DEFROSTERS WERE ON. NO IMPACT. NO OTHER SIGNS OF CONCERN WHATSOEVER. THE ONLY THING HOLDING IT TOGETHER IS THE WINDOW TINT FILM.

LOST POWER STEARING A YEAR AGO DASH WARNING READS POWER STEARING ASSIST FAULT. AT THE SAME TIME MY HEATER BLOWER STOPPED WORKING. MY MECHANIC WAS ABLE TO RESET THE FAULT AND STEERING WOULD COME BACK BUT USUALLY FOR A DAY OR TWO. IT WOULD FAULT OUT DURING THIS TIME BUT I COULD SHUT OFF AND RESTART THE TRUCK AND IT WOULD RESET THE FAULT BUT ON THE FOURTH ATTEMPT AT THIS WOULD NOT RESET THE FAULT . THIS WENT ON FOR A MONTH OR SO AS WE TRIED TO FIGURE OUT THE PROBLEM. THEN ONE DAY IT WOULD NO LONGER RESET AT ALL. SO I HAD THE STEERING RACK REPLACED. LAST APRIL. LESS THEN 5000 KM LATER IN SEPTEMBER THE STEERING FAULT HAPPENED AGAIN ALONG WITH TRACTION CONTROL FAULT AND DISINGRATED THE FRONT PASSENGERS SIDE BRAKE. AND THE HEATER BLOWER MOTOR WENT AGAIN. THESE RACKS AND THE LABOUR INTENSIVE REPLACEMENT ALONG WITH THE COST OF THE OTHER FIXES IS ASTRONOMICAL. I AM ABOUT TOO INSTALL THE THIRD RACK.WITH NO CONFIDENCE AT ALL THAT I WILL NOT BE BACK TOO SQUARE ONE IN SEPT AGAIN. THE SAYING GOES THE DIFFINITION OF INSANITY IS REPEATING THE SAME THING OVER AND OVER AND EXPECTING A DIFFERENT RESULT. SO SHE GOES FOR SALE WHEN FIXED.
