2019 FORD F-150 Complaints

10r80 transmission delayed shifting and hard jerks and rumbles and slips gear while I’m highway

At about 80K on my truck I noticed severe slipping of the transmission while accelerating. Most noticeable when getting on the freeway, or accelerating to pass someone. I called our local dealership and the service person said there was no recall, but they could take a look at it. I saw online many reports of the same issue. They give possible fixes, fluid levels, reset adaptive tables, software updates, but it seems none of that works. I am a senior on a fixed income and a new transmission cost would be terrible. I have been very careful while accelerating and back off every time it slips. Just would like to get on a list.

At 70k miles cam phaser is starting to go bad and ford will not honor prior recall or TSB tn2103 and recall 21B10. Ford has issues a 40% repair coverage and does acknowledge the issue but does not think it's their fault now. Would like ford to issue a full recall on this issue.

While driving my truck hard shifts from 3-4-5 and also at 8-9. It seems it misses shifting from 1-2-3 missing 2nd gear all together. At high speeds the transmission has slipped out of gear. I have called Ford and reported the issue as I was looking to see if this issue was recalled. Ford stated they were aware of the issue but no recalls were issued. I was forced to seek help from a transmission shop and incurred a huge bill replacing the CDF drum and rings.

You can smell something getting hot the gauges jump everywhere and the 12 volt outlet constantly flashes red or orange. The screen goes out for long periods of time and the transmission shifts down so hard and then misses gears shifting up causing the person driving to lose momentum. I can not believe this truck has not been recalled yet. It’s been at the dealers shop 20 times for electrical issues. They knew it was a lemon and still sold it to us. I hope y’all do the right thing before someone gets killed.

Transmission and Timing Chain Failure. John Vance Ford inspected F150 Jan 26, 2026 and Mar 2, 2026. On Mar 2, 2026 it was determined transmission ($8,740.85) and timing chain ($4,948.86) needed to be replaced. I experienced the vehicle slipping into neutral and lunging forward to find a gear while driving. The delay in gears could have easily caused a rearend collision...but did not...as vehicles behind me had to slow down without notice. John Vance confirmed faulty transmission. No warning lights or messages were displayed associated with the failure.

The 10-speed automatic transmission (10R80) in my 2019 Ford F-150 has failed and now requires a full replacement costing. Transmission failure while driving can cause sudden loss of propulsion or power, resulting in a dangerous loss of vehicle control on public roads. This is a known safety defect affecting many 2017–2020 F-150 models.

The contact stated that the transmission unexpectedly slipped out of gear and the vehicle unexpectedly jerked, and the vehicle drove roughly. There was no warning light illuminated. The contact received notification of NHTSA Campaign Number: 25E070000 (Power Train); however, the part to do the recall repair was not yet available. The dealer was contacted on several occasions and confirmed that parts were not yet available. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The contact stated that the manufacturer had exceeded a reasonable amount of time for the recall repair. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 97,019.

Since before my 60K warranty expired, I have experienced clunking when automatic transmission is espeically shifting down from about 4 to 3 of the 10 speeds. It has gotten worse, and it actually has good and bad days just like you and me. The other day it felt so severe that it seemed the entire truck would implode and then I would be sitting duck, or worse, hit something out of control or from quickly losing power steering. I know this issue is known, and there are now lawsuits. Date below is first onset. Dealerships have told me all sorts of crazy options to solve it over the years, from changing transmission fluid, to replacing transmission.

Windshield wipers are only working on the slowest setting, regardless of the position of the speed. Safety is put at risk as it cannot keep up with the rain. The dealer has reproduced the issue. The vehicle has not been inspected by the manufacturer, police, or insurance. There are no warning lamps.
