 Description of the problemWas pulling onto the highway with my daughter in the backseat shifting from 3rd gear to 4th i experienced a sudden down shift to 1st gear then erratic shifting then the yellow wrench light came on "limp mode" and i only had 1st 2nd and 3rd gears to get home i dropped the car off at a ford dealership thinking that the 19s07 recall unintended downshift was the issue the service manager called later that day and said the software upgrade had been performed the truck was road tested and ready for pickup i took it off the lot and the same thing happened down the road i brought it back to the dealer and mentioned the molded lead frame they later told me that the truck wasnt throwing the right codes for that and i needed to rip and replace the engine i did some research and found that thousands of other f150 owners had the same issue some had the right codes for the repair to be covered some did not and had to pay out of pocket but everyone has the exact same issue!!! This needs to be taken care of immediately thankfully no one was behind us it could have caused a serious accident i am disgusted with the way the dealership and ford customer service has handled this and think they should compensate myself and others!!!
