Description of the problem	Initial start off starts in 5th gear 50% of the time. The only way to get it back to 1st is to shut the truck off, this usually takes several ignition cycles to correct the issue. Erratic shifting throughout driving the vehicle 100% of the time. The vehicle shifts between 6th and 4th for no reason during a normal drive on the interstate 75% of operation. Hard down shifting at speeds above 50mph. Often while going down the interstate at over 50mph the truck will shift into 1st or 2nd locking up the tires. The only way to get it out of the lower gear is to shut the car off and turn it on. I have slid sideways on the highway and almost been hit in the back several times. The dealership i purchased the truck from will not even touch the vehicle for less than $115 for a diagnostics fee. They said if it is the tsb13-04-09 as they suspect it will be $1,029. 00 to repair in addition to the diagnostics fee. A local transmission facility has quoted $615. 00 to repair. I have almost wrecked several times and have had to stop the traffic on the interstate at least once a week, most of the time twice a week. This too is dangerous for not only me but the entire interstate as the traffic halts due to the ford transmission. I have video of the transmission shifting down and up shifting.
