Description of the problem	05/10/2018 driving in a school zone at 20 mph the vehicle with out any input down shifted from 3rd to 1st gear. After which it refused to shift up until i pulled over and put the vehicle in park. No code was thrown. 5/09/2018 while picking up the kids from school the f150 felt like it was stumbling at 20 mph and then it kicked back in and spun the tires, no code was thrown. Prior to this incident while driving on the freeway the vehicle on several occasions acted as if it did not know what gear to be in while going at a steady pace, the speedometer was bouncing to various speeds and then it smoothed back out. I took the car to a ford dealership and had them change the fluid believing at 110000+ miles and no way to check the fluid...... The fluid may have leaked or just was worn out. A couple months ago on multiple occasions while driving on the highway for no reason the vehicle went in to limp home mode at 75 mph, and would only operate in 3 thru 5th gears until i could turn it of and then restart. It threw p0720 code with that code also pending showing the out put speed sensor. This truck is a dearborn truck with 6r80 automatic transmission ( see recall 16s19) but the dealership said it was a truck built in texas..... Ford customer satisfaction program 16n02, nhtsa action number rq17010. As in almost all the reports ford claims that a truck built at dearborn does not ( by vin even though the it falls in the recall time frame and has the affected transmission, and the dealership even told me the truck was built in texas)
