2012 Ford F-150 Power Train Problems, Complaints and Defects

Issue ID	1544350
Internal NHTSA #	11184897
Manufacurer	Ford Motor Company
Brand	FORD
Model	F-150
Model Year	2012
File date	07/03/19
Component	POWER TRAIN
Product type code	VEHICLE
Description of the problem	I recieved a safety recall notice 19s07/nhtsa recall 19v-075 concerning a recall to reprogram the powertrain control module to prevent unintended downshifit to correct intermittent ailures of the output speed sensor that may result in an unintended downshift to first gear. The proposed correction is inadequate, since it does not address the root cause of the problem, that is, intermittent failure of the output speed sensor. I request that the nhtsa require ford motor company to correct the root cause of the problem, that is, the defect existing in the output speed sensor that may cause unintended downshifts, since failing to correct the root cause of the issue and merely installing a software patch will not result in proper operation of the vehicle, potentially impairing fuel economy and/or proper function and safety during specific driving conditions.
