| Description of the problem | I own a 2004 ford f250 diesel crew cab 4x4. We have the lariet package along with the camper and off road packages. Current miles are 3600. Ehaven't towed anything behind this new truck yet. On sunday aug. 1,2004, my wife was driving and noticed that the transmission would not shift into overdrive. The tow/haul light on the dash was flashing. I took the truck to mike davidson ford the next morning aug. 2,2004. They dropped the pan off the transmission and found metal shavings along with a bad sensor. The truck is still in the shop. I wanted to know if other new ford trucks equiped the same way were having simular problems. The dealership said this was a rare condition for this type vehicle. *ak |
