Transmission shifts erratically, especially in 3rd, 5th, and 7th, as well as all the od gears. Mechanic shop says its very likely CDF drum failure as this is a very common issue around 70,000 miles. In fact, this is so common he recommends everyone with this issue to report it here so there can be a record and possible recall soon.

Transmission problem .10R80. Vehicle would not move from stop in 1st or 2nd gear.

Every time that the vehicle is started the sink system defaults to where no memory is saved. The menu becomes an operative where no buttons on the touchscreen can be pushed, as well as the rear camera will get stuck on the screen while and drive trying to reset the system makes it somewhat operable, but a master reset cannot be performed as the screen freezes.

No check engine light before, during, or after the incident. Pulling on to road in traffic, transmission started slipping, not allowing me to get to speed of traffic. This almost caused a rear end collision. It is absurd to have paid this much money for a vehicle and so many people have this same issue. (CDF drum and valve body). Consumer has to pay $6,000 to $10,000. Ford needs to be held accountable for this garbage they produced. Absolute worst and unsafe issue ever encountered in all my years of owning vehicles. It’s ashamed and sad, I’ll have to continue to drive my vehicle this way because i don't have $10,000 to repair what should be recalled. This transmission has shifted horribly so many times almost creating fatal crashes, it’s a death trap. Where is accountability these days?

-10-speed 10R80 transmission in 2019 F150 it felt unsafe (jerking, loss of power) -takes a long time for truck to get up in speed after making a stop -vehicle has been inspected by a shop -truck has not showed any warning lamps

This complaint is specifically about the transmission. The problem has been fixed, sort of, through Ford’s extended warranty. However, I think it’s still worthy of a complaint. My transmission was slipping out of and slamming into 4th and 8th gear. Turns out there is a TSB related to the issue. After multiple trips to the dealership, I finally received a completely rebuilt transmission. All new internals. Apparently my CDF drum and a pressure band had failed. Even with the fix I am not beginning to feel slipping and slamming into 4th gear again. Something tells me the slam into 4th will eventually leave me stranded at about 30mph somewhere.

The 10 speed 10R80 shifts hard, down shifts hard, loses power\like in neutral. This issue is going to cause an accident and\or death - if it hasn't happened already. These issues have been reported to NHTSA since 2017 and NOTHING has transpired. NHTSA is culpable in any accidents, death\injury by not requiring Ford to issue a recall for a known defect in a critical system.

2019 F-150 2.7L EcoBoost, 10-speed. Intermittent unintended acceleration: while coasting or braking at low speed (10–25 mph) the engine suddenly revs to 3–4k RPM with a strong lurch forward against the brakes. Requires hard braking and shifting to Neutral to stop. Happens year-round, warm or cold, no warning lights. This is a known issue covered by TSB 19-2135 and SSM 49240 This problem started in 2020 at about 10K mileage. Has occurred about 10 times since with about 82K mileage now. The service dealer at Acton Ford tried to reproduce the problem a couple years ago by driving it, but acceleration problem didn’t happen. The problem occurred today, Dec 6, 2025 while braking for a stop light when I had to stomp on the brakes and shifted into Park. This could be dangerous if I pulled through the red light into cross-traffic.
