 Description of the problemTruck never had a problem until i took it in for a oil change and to fix a recall problem. After recall fix the next week several times while driving on freeway at 60+mph the car suddenly downshifts in to a low gear and car almost co. Es to a dead stop on the freeway. I pulled over and started the truck again and car worked fi e for a trip. Then the next trip on the freeway the car did it again, this time i noticed a wrench pop up on the display and my speedometer moving up and down. Eventually the speedometer went straight to zero, but still allowing me to drive after placing truck in (fake standard mode. After arriving home i parked car. Turned off engine, restarted and speedometer worked again. Call local ford dealership and drove car to shop. After having the car for 3 days they're telling me nothing they did on a software update would cause the problem. Yet i never had it happen before and the recall was for the exact problem i'm having. Also it looks like there was a recall on previous years that replaced more than just software. This is a serious issue. I don't believe the claims of only causing 5 accidents with no injuries. This has probably been the cause of 1000s of accidents and also deaths. But people probably are not realizing what's actually happening when a accident acurrs. After research it looks 5o be possible lead frame or speed sensor. Idk but my family will park this truck and never drive again until fixed again the recall fix caused the problem, differently did not fix. 1. 5 million f150 owners are on the road. I will never be behind a f150 again in case the have the same problem i did.
