The display screen (back up camera, clock, audio, etc.) will at times freeze up, other times be blank, other times show the rear view when in drive. This is affecting my safety as I cannot use the rear view camera in some instances and others the rear view shows up while driving causing confusion. I have not had this looked at yet by a dealer as I believed it was a known issue and a recall was coming, but as of now a lot of other vehicles are being recalled for what appears to be similar issues, but not this vehicle. No warnings.

Refusing to supply a vehicle for Powertrain control module pcm reprogramming Recall repair
I am made a formal demand for reimbursement of repair costs I incurred due to a known and recalled defect in my 2019 Ford F-150 3.5L EcoBoost (VIN: [XXX] ). Ford issued an official safety recall for defective cam phasers on this vehicle, classified under NHTSA Campaign Numbers 21B10, 21N03, and 21N08. These recalls specifically addressed the cam phaser rattle and required PCM reprogramming to adjust cam phaser control strategy. Where the reprogramming failed to resolve the defect, Ford authorized full cam phaser replacement under the recall. Despite my vehicle falling squarely within the scope of these campaigns, I was forced to pay $6,908.18 out-of-pocket to have the cam phasers replaced in order to restore safe and proper operation. The defect presented a significant safety concern, and the expense was directly attributable to Ford’s failure to address this issue. I am enclosing the following documentation as evidence: •Repair invoice showing the total paid ($6,908.18) •Proof of payment (credit card receipt / cancelled check) •Vehicle registration verifying ownership •Invoice from Enterprise Rental ($1,522.69) •Proof of payment (credit card receipt) Under the Magnuson-Moss Warranty Act, state consumer protection laws, and Ford’s own recall obligations, I am entitled to reimbursement for repairs covered by a safety recall. Accordingly, I demand full reimbursement of $6,908.18 and rental car, $1,522.69 within thirty (30) days of receipt of this letter. I have reached out to F
Driving at highway speed the original transmission down shifted by it self At 70 m.p.h. The truck made a clunk and skid for a few seconds, then transmission fluid started spewing all over the place. Hade too take to dealer in Mount Vernon iowa they replaced transmission at 100,053 miles. Now the remanufactured transmission from ford is doing the same thing with only around 2,000 miles on it. This time it happened I was scared that we were going to wreck. The truck actually bounced in the rear and skidded again. I think there should be something done before my self or someone else gets killed with this issue. As of now my truck is at the shop again for the transmission problem. Thanks [XXX] .

10R80 transmission in the 2019 Ford F-150 is defective and dangerous. Hard/delayed shifting and shuddering causes vehicle to speed up, slow down and jerk unexpectedly while shifting gears.
During driving, the transmission began hesitating when shifting from 4th to 5th gear. Then in stop and go traffic, it would shift hard from 1st gear to the point my head would slam into the headrest. I would then get a notice on the dashboard of a power train failure. Once I turned the vehicle off, the notice would disappear and the vehicle would begin to shift normally for a while, before the hard shifting would continue. On the freeway, sometimes when the vehicle tried to down shift, it would hesitate and I was concerned I would be rear ended as it would not speed up. I brought the truck into 2 different ford dealerships and they both said it needed a new transmissison. There is 123,00 miles on this 2019 Ford F150. I had also related to the dealerships that there was a rattle when starting the vehicle and they said it is due to the cam shifters or more and a complete engine tear down was recommended. At the same time, the electronic screen would sometimes freeze, turn off when driving or not turn on initally. The dealerships said this needed to be replaced. The estimates for repair were from $16,461 to $13,686.
The contact owns a 2019 Ford F-150. The contact stated while driving at various speeds, the vehicle made an abnormal banging sound, and the transmission was slipping. There was no warning light illuminated. The contact stated that while at a complete stop, the vehicle failed to shift into gear for an extended for a while. The contact waited for the vehicle to respond as needed. The dealer and the manufacturer were not notified of the failure. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The failure mileage was approximately 125,000.
The contact owns a 2019 Ford F-150. The contact stated that while reversing, the rearview camera image was intermittently blank or distorted. The dealer and the manufacturer were not notified of the failure. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The failure mileage was approximately 50,000.
On May 5th 2025 I had a routine oil change tie rotation on my 2019 f150, 77,000 miles. There was no visible signs of transmission fluid leak or transmission issues. The week of May 15th 2025 i started experiencing hard shifting random downshifting without notice.So I immediately contacted crossroads ford of sanford NC to bring it in. There Was zero transmission fluid, so they did a full transmission service at only 77,000. Which made the problem worse Turns out, it was a bad CDF DRUM. My endurance warranty denied my claim.Which should have been covered. This cost me $8,600 out of pocket. It came out of nowhere, the downshifting with no notice a warning is extremely dangerous!
The coil spring on the front end suspension snapped on my Ford F-150. The truck is a 2019 with just over 43,000 miles. The truck has not had any performance or suspension modifications over the life of the vehicle. Coil springs are an essential component of the suspension system, absorbing impacts and maintaining vehicle stability. As the coil spring snapped completely, this is a hazard to the driver of the vehicle and anyone driving alongside the road. The vehicle is now at a independent service center, once they identified the coil had snapped, they contacted me immediately noting the vehicle is no longer safe for driving. There were no warning lamps or messages that arose due to the issue. The only warning sign was a "squeaking noise" at low speeds which I requested the mechanic review when doing a routine oil change.
-front, passenger side door will not lock -cannot secure truck -has not been inspected at the dealer yet -security alarm has been activating intermittently with no obvious cause for a couple of weeks prior to this incident
Vehicle has just over 62,000 miles on it and is just out of warranty. On [XXX] I was driving home from Colorado and the 10r80 transmission hesitated downshifting for a few seconds when climbing a hill and let out a very loud banging sound which shook the whole truck. Shortly after, the transmission tried to downshift and upshift on it's own repeatedly and would not transfer power at all. I quickly shifted it into neutral and pulled to the side of the road. This was really sudden and happened with no warning at full highway speeds(75 mph) on [XXX] southbound. If my wife would have been driving, I am not sure she would have been able to react as quickly. She wouldn't have realized what was happening. This could have easily resulted in a serious or life threatening accident. The leaking fluid also caused a sigificant amount of smoke on the underside of the vehicle as it dripped on the exhaust system. I quickly shut the vehicle off realizing it could catch on fire, but someone may not realize this as a possibility in the moment. I currently have the vehicle at a local transmission shop who has rebuilt several of these Ford 10r80 transmissions. His opinion, which will be verified by the teardown process as he rebuilds it, is that there are several common failure points which should have already been recalled by Ford in these transmissions. #1. The CDF drum which holds the clutch packs is machined in a way which allows the seal to slip and cause falure. #2. The valve body is know t
The 10 speed transmission had two occurrences where it failed. The first was while driving the transmission went into neutral on its own and would not go into any gear. The vehicle was towed to the dealership for a new computer part before it would operate again. The second time was when I was pulling the truck behind my motorhome but this time it went from neutral into gear in its own. The vehicle was towed this way for the previous 4 years without incident. The vehicle became a safety hazard because it broke down both times where it could not be moved. A tow truck was used both times to get the vehicle out of the road. There was no warning before this happened both times. Ford had to replace the computer module the first time and the whole transmission was replaced the second time. Warranty covered the first and I had to pay $10,000 for the second repair. Since I had this happen I have talked to several people that have had the same happen to them.
Transmission slipping in multiple gears, and early shift shudder. Random acceleration in low gear shift point
1)It was determined to be a defective CDF drum in the transmission was replaced by an independent service center. 2)The defective CDF drum started causing erratic and hard shifting. The most dangerous issue was when it would try to shift into 9th gear but indicated a shift for first gear on the display. It acted like it was deciding whether to shift to 9th or 1st but doing neither. The wrench icon would pop up on the display and I put on the brakes. If it would have shifted to 1st going 55 MPH it could have caused injury to myself and others. 3) No accident happened so I did not report it to any authority. I capped the shifting to 7th gear max. 4)I had the service center inspect the vehicle and they determined the CDF drum was bad and the transmission needed to be repaired or replaced. 5)a warning light wrench icon lit up on the display after it indicated a shift to 1st gear instead of 9th gear going approximately 55 MPH. Other symptoms were harsh shifts from 1st to 3rd gear skipping 2nd gear and other rough shifting throughout the range.
Rearview Camera and Information Screen are not functioning properly. Screen will come up to a Black Screen after starting the vehicle and the camera will not function or the camera will stay on while driving forward and will go black after driving down the highway a short distance. This problem has been occurring for a year or more and is starting to occur more often. System is up to date and local ford dealership is stating there is no problem with it. Video has been taken of the issue in which the dealership stated the video proved nothing and that was not just cause for a repair being made.
Timing chain and gears need to be replaced. Check engine light came on. This should not be happening to a newer vehicle with 100,000 miles on it. I looked up other complaints and multiple people have filed complaints about the timing chain going out on their vehicle.

Transmission has erratic behavior. Several times it would not downshift or would hunt for a proper gear with the 10 speed automatic transmission at intersections and when making turns with oncoming traffic. Very dangerous. I have decided to park it. Dealer said it needs transmission replacement.
The transmission failed in October 2023 on my way home from work. Brought it to a transmission place and had another one put in. Cost $6k - The truck is now at another mechanic as it broke down again while driving home from work - transmission and engine this time. Mechanic says needs new transmission and timing chain kit - Cost $10k This is a truck that has 100k miles on it and only 6 years old. This will be the 3rd transmission. It is a safety risk as I have no control when the transmission gives out whether its on a highway or one of these country back roads.

Truck is stalling at low speeds or idle when in drive or reverse causing me to get stranded in turns or at stop lights. No check engine lights have come on and the dealership said to wait but it’s happening constantly. Occasionally the auto start stop will say it’s failed but the stalling occurs when it’s enabled and disabled
My truck started shifting hard and I took it to a shop and had to pay over $7000 due to my transmission going bad. I bought the car and had a lifetime power train warranty on it and ford stated they would not cover it still. So I had to pay over $7000 out of my pocket due to their mistake

Merging onto highway, the transmission stayed in-between gears and did not allow me to accelerate forcing me to ride the break down lane momentarily. I had to shift to N and then back to D to regain acceleration. As continued to the next exit the transmission shifted from 7 to 1 and then back to 7 causing a hard shift and a violent jolt of the vehicle. This happened in 9th gear as well before reaching my destination. A wrench icon was on the dash and the Ford app showed a "Powertrain Malfunction/Reduced Power" warning. There have also been countless hard shifts prior to the incident above. If there was no break down lane while merging, I would have been a hazard to the traffic on the limited access highway and may have caused an accident due to the low speed and no acceleration. I have a service appointment on Sept 04, 2025 with the dealership I bought the vehicle from. (Not a Ford Dealer)

In June we started having transmission issues. Collateral was taken to Lynch Ford in Mt. Vernon IA. When we would drive the unit the transmission would slip. The final incident was when we were driving down [XXX] at 70 Miles per hour the transmission began to slip again. We had to pull over off the side of the road as the truck went in to limp mode. We had to continue to drive to the dealer at a lower rate of speed because we could not get a tow truck to pick us up. Dealer informed us the transmission was out and needed replaced. We spent close to 8K to replace the transmission. The collateral had just turned over 100K for miles. Since installing the new transmission we continue to have transmission issue. Truck as been back to Lynch Ford for further a diagnostic. They flashed the transmission and told us to drive the unit 400 miles to see if the flash fixes the problem. We have only had the truck less than 8 months. Location Stanwood Iowa. There should be a recall on these transmissions and owners who spent money to replace the transmission should be reimbursed.

My ten speed transmission is shifting erratic and slipping. I have asked Krenzen auto dealer to please diagnose and advise about the problem. They ran codes and say nothing comes up. I requested a transmission flush and was told they don't have the tools. I afraid that this could become a safety hazzard if it gets worse.
In July 2025 my 2019 Ford F150 began to have hard shift changes, unexpected downshifts and other shifting issues especially in 4th and 8th gear. Then during the first week of August I pulled out at an intersection and when the truck shifted into 4th gear it lost all power however the engine was still running. Thankfully no one was behind me as this could have caused a serious accident resulting in the loss of life for those involved. It slowed down to approximately 20 mph then suddenly regained power and lunged and shifted up to 5th. This happened several times so I took it to the local Ford dealer and they said the transmission was defective and needed replacing. The truck’s mileage was 129,000 and they said it was not covered by warranty and that even though Ford was aware of the numerous problems with the 2017-2022 10R80 transmission they refused to issue a recall and instead issued several TSBs (Technical Service Bulletin) to the dealers. It costs me $8699.72 to have a remanufactured transmission installed and has the improved CDF drum which was part of the defective transmissions Ford used in 2017-2022 in their F-150, Ranger, Expedition and Explorers. Ford knowing and continues to endanger the lives of its customers that operate these vehicles built between 2017-2022 by refusing to issue a recall for the known 10R80 transmission problems and it is costing these customers thousands of dollars to repair what Ford should have done in the first place. NHTSA must investigate

There is, and has been, a consistent rattle sound from the waste gates and all I was told was that Ford knows about the issue and states that it is normal operation yet it can cause damage and reduce performance and could cause a safety issue if it fails and allows no power to be delivered especially if the failure occurs on an interstate. All I’ve been told is the issue can be addressed with a DIY fix of adding a spring but no support from Ford is given in regards to this issue. This is documented all over the forums and is a known issue plaguing the 3.5 ecoboost f150s. The next issue is in regards to the transmission shifting roughly, jerking and sometimes lagging when trying to accelerate. Currently my truck only has 88k miles and this issue has been present since roughly 60k miles and has not been addressed even though it’s been made known.
2019 Ford F150 began hard shifting and disengaging. I contacted the service center and was advised that it adaptive learning. Within a week while driving the transmission completely failed while driving. Dealership states a new transmission is needed. There was no warning nor lamps or messages that appeared prior to the failure.
The Ford Sync 3 "head unit" or whatever they call it nowadays locks up. When going in reverse the camera will either sometimes completely glitch and show "static", or sometimes a black screen and nothing. The rearview camera will also stay on when pulling away after reversing, which obviously can be very distracting. This has been glitching for almost two years, but has gotten worse and worse to the point now where it is almost every single time the rear camera is used. It will not factory reset, that locks as well. This is a very well known issue by Ford, and yet they do nothing about it. It is a very common complaint in online forums etc., someone needs to force Ford's hand to do these repairs, which can cost well over $1000, in many cases closer to 2k or more.
The contact owns a 2019 Ford F-150. The contact stated that while her husband was driving approximately 70 MPH, the transmission unexpectedly downshifted. The vehicle lost motive power and decelerated to 10 MPH, and while depressing the accelerator pedal, the vehicle failed to respond as needed.

Well, my motor has already been replaced with less than 80,000 miles because of an engine oil consumption issue. My transmission is not shifting correctly. It jerks and shifts hard. It’s been an issue since I bought it.
I am submitting this complaint regarding a serious transmission defect that has developed in my vehicle. The transmission exhibits repeated and worsening malfunctions, including surging, hesitation, jerking, lunging, and slipping between gears. These defects substantially impair my ability to operate the vehicle safely, create an unreasonable risk of collision, and endanger the safety of passengers, pedestrians, and other motorists. This matter requires immediate attention due to the significant safety risks posed. The transmission system of the vehicle has failed and exhibits repeated malfunctions, including surging, hesitation, jerking, lunging, and slipping between gears. The vehicle and its transmission remain available for inspection upon request. The transmission failure places both the operator and the public at significant risk by causing sudden, unintended, and unpredictable vehicle movements. These malfunctions substantially impair the driver’s ability to maintain safe control of the vehicle, creating an elevated risk of collision and endangerment to passengers, pedestrians, and other motorists. The failure was reproduced and confirmed by an authorized Ford dealership during the first week of August. The dealership initially attempted a transmission reflash procedure at a cost of $280, which failed to remedy the defect. Approximately two weeks later, following illumination of the wrench warning indicator on the dashboard, the vehicle was returned to the dealership w

NHTSA publishes every complaint as the owner wrote it and investigates only a fraction. Spelling, capitalisation and judgement are the filer’s own. What carries weight is repetition: the same component failing the same way across many filings, and whether the manufacturer eventually opened a recall for it.
