 Description of the problemWas driving 2013 ford f150 fx4 with ecoboost engine about 60 miles per hour when truck suddenly shifted into 1st gear and caused truck to rev rpm's and rapidly and unexpectedly to decrease speed due to shifting to first gear almost causing an accident on a city street. After the speed decrease, unable to get car into higher gear and drove at very low speeds to exit road. Turned car off and on and it not help. After about 5 minutes, car was able to drive but experienced the issue several more times driving to mechanic. Another family member experienced the same issue the day before, but did not realize the truck was shifting into 1st gear. Took truck to mechanic and ran diagnostics for $100 fee and was told me to take to dealership for a known issue. At the dealership, a "fix" was implemented, but the fix caused another issue and when the air conditioning started, the whole dash vibrates and make loud noises. Dealership still has truck trying to figure out issue of loud noise when turning on ac. Did not have issue with vibrating until the "fix" was issued. Nor did the mechanic notice the issue with the ac when it was taken in for a diagnostic before taking to dealership.
