  1. Major transmission problems at 5,000 miles

    Canuck yes that's exactly the same issue I'm having for sure. It's pretty devastating to me that Ford calls this unsafe condition "normal"... it's mind boggling and off-putting. I am also starting to have additional issues at higher gears (with the strong "thuds" happening while both upshifting...
  2. Major transmission problems at 5,000 miles

    Thanks for following up Johnnypedals. The dealer says they have indicated the problems to Ford, but the drive train is not throwing any codes, so Ford says they don't have a fix.

  3. Major transmission problems at 5,000 miles

Why? Because the loss-of-power issue almost resulted in an accident the other day. I didn't give all...
  7. Major transmission problems at 5,000 miles

    2024 XLT FX4 with 10R60 transmission began with harsh downshifting (3,2,1) when coming to a stop, then began to exhibit other issues: MPG dropped from an average of 17.5 to 15.3 (combined highway and city) Frequent slipping during acceleration at any speed Harsh engagement at random times --...
