| Description of the problem | Just under 60k miles and truck jumps gear at random from 1st to 5th while coming to a stop or while at a stop and vice vera while accelerating through 4th-5th gears the truck will drop into 1st gear resulting in a temporary loss of control. Had it happen to me 6 times over several weeks until the dealership was able to diagnose and obtain the molded lead frame to replace. Twice while on a city street at a stop sign making an uphill turn, several times while attempting to exit a parking lot. Ford has acknowledged this problem by issuing a recall for 2011-2012 f150s and issuing a tsb for 2013s but will not include 2013s as part of the recall. These recalls include # 16n02 and #12c23. This issue was an expense of nearly $500 to me, fortunately it did not cause an accident and cost a lot more. Ford |
