Description of the problem	I've repeatedly taken this vehicle to the ford dealer. It has the stutter shift problem, sticking in either 1st, 3rd, or 5th gear. Shifting from 1st to 5th when accelerating, downshifting from 5th to ist with the resulting screech of the rear wheels and going into limp mode, remaining in 5th gear when stopping, the display going blank and the rectangle with wrench symbol occurring, etc. Etc. Iv'e read many of the complaints list ed on this site and it seems i've had them all. I've had to take serious evasive measures on three occasion. The only response i get from the dealer is "if you can't duplicate it, we can't fix it." i file a grievance complaint and received a call from the district supervisor who said we are not buying back your truck as there is nothing wrong with your vehicle. This was followed up by the factory ford satisfaction representative who was not interested in my problem but calling to evaluate the ford dealer and state if you can't demonstrate the problem we can't fix it. This is a serious safety hazard and judging from what i've read, it should be opened to recall investigation. My problems started around 12,000 miles and i now have approx. 17,000 miles with over 100 incidences. It seems once you stop and start the engine a reset takes place and it one usually can continue without incident. I personally feel this is a software issue and there are bugs in the so called adaptive driving(i. E. Artificial intelligence) and the trained service technicians are not equipped to solve problems of this nature. I've talked to these techs and they want to fix the problem, but unless they can retrieve a diagnostic code there is nothing they can do. This needs to be elevated to the upper levels of ford management.

What is Recall?
A recall is when a product is removed from the market or a correction is made to the product because it is either defective or potentially harmful.
What is Failure?
Failure is the state or condition of not meeting a desirable or intended objective, and may be viewed as the opposite of success. Product failure ranges from failure to sell the product to fracture of the product, in the worst cases leading to personal injury, the province of forensic engineering.
What is Defect?
Non-conformance of a car component with the specified requirements, or non-fulfillment of user expectations, including the safety aspects.
