2013 Ford F-150 complaints

Had recall performed for downshift concerns and on [XXX] my truck tried to downshift while I was driving approximately 40 to 50 mph which was very scary. My question is why didn't the completed recall fix that concern and what can be done about this before it becomes catastrophic if not fatal to have this downshifting concern on my vehicle. Thank you sincerely [XXX] INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)

We had a recall for reprogramming transmission in March 2023 at ford dealer last week my son driving on highway and it downshifted to low speed almost caused a car to hit truck.

The contact owns a 2013 Ford F-150. The contact stated while driving at an undisclosed speed, the transmission unexpectedly downshifted and the service warning light illuminated. In addition, the vehicle lost motive power and the control panel display was inoperable. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired by an independent mechanic or the dealer. The contact stated that the failure had occurred twice. The contact stated that in July 2019, the transmission was replaced under the NHTSA Campaign Number: 19V075000 (Power Train). The manufacturer was made aware of the failure and the contact was informed that the repair was not eligible for repair under warranty. The failure mileage was approximately 85,000.

The contact owns a 2013 Ford F-150. The contact stated while driving approximately 60 MPH, the transmission unexpectedly downshifted from 6th gear to 1st gear, causing the vehicle to slow down dramatically as if the brake pedal had been depressed. The contact stated that the "WRENCH" symbol was illuminated. The contact stated that the failure was intermittent but had become a recurring failure. The contact had taken the vehicle to an independent mechanic who diagnosed the vehicle and determined that the transmission needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was informed of the failure. The contact researched online and related the failure to NHTSA Campaign Number: 19V433000 (Power Train) however, the VIN was not included. The failure mileage was approximately 210,000.

This is a longstanding issue and I've provided language from the Edmunds website to describe: " The defect has been traced to an output speed sensor on the vehicle's transmission lead frame. Under certain conditions, the transmission controls could force a temporary downshift into first 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. This condition could result in loss of vehicle control, increasing the risk of a crash. Affected vehicles are equipped with a 6R80 transmission." Around 2020, I brought the vehicle to a local Ford/Lincoln dealer, and the powertrain control module software was updated. The update only keeps the transmission from affecting the shift to 1st gear. If related diagnostic trouble codes had been present they would have replaced the lead frame at no cost to the customer. An additional dangerous condition occurs, for roughly 5 seconds, where the transmission will not transmit engine power to the wheels. The warranty extension was for 10 years or 150,000 miles from the warranty start date. The problem is there should not have been a time component to the warranty extension. If they were willing to extend to 150,000 miles no other limitation should have been allowed. Nearly anytime I need to accelerate to pass on the highway the transmission will try to shift into 1st gear. I'm forced to have to drive in manual shift mode as th

Not sure if it is the powertrain or the intercooler for the turbos but when you press the gas to get on the highway or at high speed on the highway and press the gas the check engine light blinks and the vehichal goes into limp mode. Easy to recreate and doesnt seem like ford has a recall for it or even a fix. Every eco boost truck ever made seems to have this issue and if you get rear ended because of it , that sounds like a safety hazard to me. The only fix I have seen from the f150 forums to youtube or anywhere on google is to drill a 1/16 hole in the intercooler and let sludge and condensation drip all over the place. Does not sound like a great fix to me.Not even sure if the intercooler is the culprit or if it's the power train.Any help with this would be greatly appreciated.

My 2013 Ford F-150 SVT Raptor experienced the failure condition described in TSB 15-0137 causing sudden and complete loss of power, with no previous warnings, due to the fuel pump relay fuse holder melting and the fuel pump abruptly shutting off. This occurred while my son was driving the vehicle and while he did an admirable job of getting the truck off to the shoulder with no power, he was nevertheless on a freeway onramp around a blind turn with a merge where drivers were attempting to accelerate to highway speed, thus placing him in a dangerous situation for the hour or so it took to get a tow to the Ford dealer for repair. This failure mode (and subsequent repair) has had a TSB for 9 years and clearly has the ability to cause a safety concern, as it did in this case. Had I known about this TSB, I would have implemented it proactively given the severity of the potential failure and the high likelihood for it causing a safety issue. There are already dozens of complaints on this exact topic in NHTSA's database. Please consider elevating this safety-related defect to a full recall.

Transmission issue? Vehicle is not shifting correctly. Shifting is very rough and we are afraid to drive the vehicle. Local dealer said we can schedule an appointment... it would be 3-4 weeks. No warning lights or messages. (We just had a recall taken care of on our 2014 F150 for a shifting issue but had no symptoms.)

Reference Ford program 19N01 This is an ongoing issue with Ford F150's. This program allows for coverage within 10 years or 100,000 miles. My truck has approximately 78,000 miles. There is a defective sensor in the transmission that when not properly working, causes the transmission to drop into 1st gear and stay there, in other words, not shifting. There are multiple warning lamps when this happens and it has happened multiple times. My vehicle has been inspected by a Ford dealer and they confirmed the issue. However, because the truck is over 10 years old, Ford will not cover the repairs which cost in excess of $1,700. Since this is an ongoing issue with over 1/2 million Ford trucks, this repair should be covered most importantly because it is a safety issue. I don't have a repair invoice yet as my truck is in the process of being repaired. Will provide upon receipt. Thank you!

Faulty leadframe and transmission filter.

Chain guide and tensioners are made not strong enough and the chain gets lose and rattle wen starting up

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 w

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.

While driving the vehicle, it would shift down to first gear. This happened at least 6 times, all a different speeds. No warning lights, except after it happened, the electronics on the dash would go out. Had to shift to park and/or shut off the vehicle, then shift back into gear.

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.

My 2013 Ford F-150 King Ranch suddenly downshifted while traveling at highway speeds. It downshifted into 5th gear, not 1st, luckily. This has occurred twice and I will take my truck to my local dealer tomorrow morning. A few years ago, I had transmission work completed because my truck was stuck in first gear and required tuning off the engine to get it back to shifting properly. At that time, I was unaware of the 2019 recall for the transmission control module and speed sensor, and spent money on the repair because my local ford dealer denied that this was part of the recall. I now suspect that was not true.

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.
