 Description of the problemMy automatic transmission on my truck started not wanting to shift into the proper gear. It went from shifting into a higher gear as i was trying to merge into traffic, which caused me to lose pretty much all power. This could have cause a wreck in busy traffic. The most worrisome problem was that it started shifting into 1st gear when driving in normal traffic. It happened 3 times at speeds of 30 mph, causing the back tires to lock and a loss of all power. It happened a final timewhen i was traveling at 55 mph. It went from 5th gear to 1st causing my tires to lock again and almost causing the person traveling behind me to wreck into me. It was very scary. Even though i was on a curvy road i was able to maintain control, but i had lost all power and the rpms on the engine went extremely high. As soon as i could i took it to the dealership and they replaced a part in the transmission as well as reset the computer. This issue is very scary and could have caused a serious wreck at the speed i was traveling at, not to mention if it was a higher rate of speed. In researching this online, i found many similar issues affecing ford trucks
