| Description of the problem | 1. While driving at highway speeds (around 70 mph) the vehicle suddenly down-shifted into 2nd gear. The rear tires briefly locked up, but control of the vehicle was managed. 2. While driving, both in town and on the highway, the vehicle would downshift from 6th gear to 5th. The vehicle would then not shift below 3rd gear when brought to a stop. Turning the vehicle off and on again would reset the problem. The maintenance light and airbag light illuminated. The speedometer went to 0. The odometer and other digital readings in the center cluster on the dash showed all dashes. After several of these events, the check engine light also illuminated. 3. After one of the events described in 2 above, the vehicle was stopped, shifted into reverse, and then returned to drive. The vehicle would not move and acted as though it was in neutral. Shutting the vehicle off and on again corrected the problem. The local ford dealership is aware of the problem and has scheduled an appointment for a diagnosis. Ford safety recall notice 19s07 was performed in march 2019. Ford safety recall notice 19s19 was performed in july 2019, after the first event, but did not correct the issue. |
