| Description of the problem | My 2010 ford f-150 transmission "slams" between gears. Ford is aware of this problem but alleges that it cannot do anything until the software issue is repaired. The transmission slams between gears, at times the 4 wheel drive seems to engage when going around a corner. This issue concerns me as if the 4 wheel drive locks up i could either lose steering control or stop dead in the middle of the road. Ford is not concerned but i am very concerned. |
