TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2010 FORD F-150. WHILE REVERSING, THE VEHICLE SHOOK VIOLENTLY AND THE CONTACT HAD TO DEPRESS THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL WITH FORCE TO GET THE VEHICLE TO MOVE. CONSUMER STATED SHIFTING INTO SECOND GEAR BEGAN TO JERK THE TRUCK LIKE. I WAS BEING HIT FROM BEHIND. THE SAME JERKING SENSATION WAS FELT WHILE THE TRUCK WAS IN REVERSE. THE ACCELERATOR NEEDED TO BE PRESS FAR DOWN FOR THE TRUCK TO MOVE IN REVERSE. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO LIBERTY FORD OF MAPLE HEIGHTS (5500 WARRENSVILLE CENTER RD, MAPLE HEIGHTS, OH 44137) WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE TRANSMISSION NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS CONTACTED. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 78,189. *TT*JB

SOMETIMES WHILE DRIVING, USUALLY IN MOUNTAINOUS TERRAIN OR PULLING A LOAD, THE VEHICLE WILL DOWN SHIFT MULTIPLE GEARS. INSTEAD OF A PROGRESSION OF ONE GEAR AT A TIME, IT IS A SUDDEN SHIFT FROM LE. FOURTH TO SECOND OR FIRST. I DON'T KNOW THE EXACT REDUCTION AS MY VEHICLE DOES NOT HAVE A GEAR INDICATOR. IT OCCURS SPORADICALLY WITH NO WARNING. THIS ACTION HAS NEVER CAUSED A DANGEROUS SITUATION BUT IS CONCERNING. THE ENGINE RPM HAS JUMPED TO THE RED LINE WHICH I FEEL MAY CAUSE ENGINE AND/OR TRANSMISSION PROBLEMS.

TAKATA RECALL. WHEN PULLING OUT INTO TRAFFIC ON A VERY BUSY HIGHWAY AS THE ON COMING TRAFFIC SPEED LIMIT IS 50MPH, I'M PULLING OUT ON THE HIGHWAY WITH A SAFE DISTANCE BETWEEN CARS ON THIS BUSY ROAD AS I ACCELERATED MY 2010 F150 FX4 SUPER CREW CAB "WITH MY FAMILY IN THE TRUCK I MIGHT ADD" THE TRUCK JUST DOWN SHIFTS AND IT SLAMS ME AND MY FAMILY FORWARD "LIKE I HIT A TREE GOING 30MPH" THE TRUCK SHUTS OFF COMPLETELY AND A SYMBOL OF A WRENCH POPS UP ON THE DASHBOARD. WITH NO POWER STEERING, NO POWER BREAKS, NO WAY TO SAFELY MOVE THE TRUCK OFF THE ROAD AT THIS POINT DUE TO THE TRAFFIC I WAS TRYING TO AVOID WAS PASSING ME GOING AT LEAST 50MPH ALMOST GETTING REAR ENDED BY SEVERAL CARS AND SEMI TRUCKS, I PUSH THE FLASHERS ON AND PRAY THAT NOTHING BAD HAPPENS AND COAST UNTIL THE TRUCK FINALLY COMES TO A STOP AFTER ABOUT 30-45 SECONDS. I GET OUT OF THE TRUCK AFTER THE GROUP OF VEHICLES PASS BY AND INSPECTED TO SEE IF THE ENGINE OR TRANSMISSION WAS BLOWN UP OR LEAKING FLUID AND NOTHING AT THIS POINT SO I'M STRESSED OUT BECAUSE MY FAMILY AND I COULD HAVE VERY WELL DIED AND THERE IS NO PROOF OF THIS WHEN I RESTARTED THE TRUCK NO SYMBOLS WAS PRESENT WHEN INSPECTED BY A MECHANIC. I KEEP TELLING THE MECHANIC THAT IT HAS NO POWER ANY MORE, IT SOOOOO SLUGGISH I CAN'T EVEN DRIVE THE TRUCK MUCH ANYMORE, ONLY ON SHORT TRIPS TO THE STORE. WE HAD TO CANCEL OR VACATION AND CANCEL THE PURCHASE OF A CAMPER FOR OUR VACATION. I'M SORRY BUT IF FORD WAS A REAL SYMBOL OF SAFETY AND SECURITY OF ITS OWNERS THIS WOULD HAVE NEVER HAPPENED IN THE FIRST PLACE. THIS NEEDS TO BE FIXED ASAP!!!

TRANSMISSION OR TORQUE CONVERTER CAUSES THE TRUCK TO SHAKES AND SHUDDER. IT ALSO DOWN SHIFTS AND IS A KICKING FEELING. AT TIMES FEELING LIKE SOMEONE HAS REAR ENDED YA. THROWS HEAD BACK IT'S SO VIOLENT. THE SHAKING AND SHUDDERING TYPICALLY STARTS AT AROUND 38-54 MPH. THEN FOR NO REASON AT DIFFERENT SPEEDS UP TO 80 MPH. ANYTIME THERE IS A UPHILL GRADE IT CONSTANTLY DOWNSHIFTS AND SHAKES EVEN MORE. THE SHUDDERS ARE SO VIOLENT THE MIRRORS CAN'T BE USED TO SEE ANYTHING. I CAN FEEL IT IN MY TEETH. THIS HAPPENS ON CITY STREETS AND ON THE HIGHWAY. HAVE TAKEN IN SEVERAL TIMES FOR THIS PROBLEM SINCE IT WAS NEW. EVEN WHEN TALKING ON BLUETOOTH PHONE- OTHERS HAVE SAID THEY COULD HEAR IT OVER THE PHONE. FORD HAS REFUSED AND NEVER FIXED THIS PROBLEM AND TOLD ME THIS IS NORMAL FOR THE TRANSMISSION TO PROTECT ITSELF. WHAT BS. I'VE NEVER HAD A VEHICLE THAT DID THIS ON PURPOSE. THERE ARE THOUSANDS OF COMPLAINTS ABOUT THIS FROM BEFORE 2010. WHY ISN'T MY YEAR MODEL TRUCK COVERED AND THOSE BEFORE MINE?? NOW THERE'S A RECALL FOR THIS VERY THING FOR 2011-2013 YEAR MODELS. MY TRUCK IS DANGEROUS AND A PAIN IN THE BUTT TO DRIVE. FORD NEEDS TO FIX ALL OF THE VEHICLES PRODUCED WITH THIS PROBLEM NOT JUST 3 YEARS. 🤬 I'M DOING THIS ON MY PHONE. I HAVE RECORDS AND IF NEEDED YOU CAN COME DRIVE WITH ME AND SEE FOR YOURSELF. SURE HOPE ME OR ONE OF MY FAMILY MEMBERS DOESN'T GET HURT DRIVING THIS TRUCK BECAUSE OF THIS CRAP. SORRY, REALLY PISSED THAT FORD IS GOING TO CONTINUE TO GET AWAY WITH SCREWING FOLKS OVER. HAPPENS FROM 2010- TO PRESENT. (2019)

I WAS DRIVING TO WORK ON 2/5/19, AROUND 6:45AM, AND HAD THE REAR WINDOW DEFROST ON. WHILE IN MOTION ON A CITY STREET, I HEARD A LOUD POP COMING FROM THE VEHICLE.THE SOUND WAS LOUD ENOUGH TO BE MISTAKEN FOR A GUN SHOT. AFTER TRYING TO FIGURE OUT WHAT THE NOISE WAS, I NOTICED IN MY REAR VIEW MIRROR THAT THE PASSENGER SIDE REAR WINDOW WAS COMPLETELY CRACKED. I WAS AMAZED THE ENTIRE WINDOW DIDN'T COLLAPSE INWARD. AFTER COMING TO A STOP AND INSPECTING THE WINDOW CLOSER, I WAS UNABLE TO SEE WHERE ANY FOREIGN OBJECT IMPACTED THE WINDOW. I BELIEVE THIS INCIDENT WAS CAUSED BY THE REAR WINDOW DEFROST HEATING THE WINDOW TOO RAPIDLY AND CAUSING THE CLASS TO EXPAND TOO MUCH, CAUSING THE FAILURE.
