Transmission issues that where addressed by factory recall: Here is the summary: Although the truck has high miles it has been running and driving very well. A couple of months ago, the truck developed a transmission issue that was covered by the recent recall. The truck was experiencing 2 main issues. A. The transmission would suddenly and unexpectedly downshift from a high gear to a low gear or even 1st gear. B. the transmission would go into LIMP MODE and although the truck was in gear, it would barely move and the WRENCH service light would appear on the dashboard. This would happened 1x per week for the last several months. After receiving the recall notice, I took the truck to my local Ford dealer, they performed the update. After picking it up and driving it, I soon realized the issue has not gotten worse. Within the first few hours and 100 miles, the experienced the issue 5 times and that happened for the next couple of days. I called the dealer, they told me to bring it back in, they checked it, verified my issues and said they could not do anything to help. The software was updated and if it is worse, then its permanent. I called Ford corporate and they told me the same thing. They are not offering any help. The truck has now become a hazard to drive and it is a safety concern. What can I do?

My 2014 Ford F150 was recalled for an intermittent failure of the output speed sensor (OSS) in the transmission. The recall was performed by Crossroads Ford of Apex (North Carolina) on [XXX]. When I made the appointment (which wasn't until 2 weeks from the time I called), I was told it would take approximately 3 hours however it was ready in 30 minutes. Since the recall was performed, twice the "orange wrench" has appeared on my dash for 15 - 20 seconds. I contacted Crossroads Ford and was directed to speak with the Service Manager Tony (no last name given). I explained about the wrench and he said I I would need a diagnostic performed, that it sounded like the 'mainframe in the transmission' was bad. He redirected me to the scheduler and I was given November 19, 2024 as the first available date. I was told my other options were to try another Ford dealership to see if they could see me sooner or just drop my truck off at Crossroads and they would work it in as soon as they could but that could take 5 -6 days and if it needed repairs they were not sure how long they would have my truck. I called 2 other Ford dealerships and was offered sooner dates however I would have to pay for the diagnostic and any repairs as deemed necessary. I asked even if it was related to the recall and was told yes because the recall for my truck had been closed by Crossroad Ford. My only recourse was to go back to Crossroads Ford and see if there was a warranty on the recall they performed. I called Crossroads Ford on Tuesday, August 22, 2024 and relayed the information I had received from the other dealerships. I was informed that Tony said I would have to pay for the diagnostic and repairs, there was no warranty on the recall. Per my recall letter dated July 2024, "and to check for the presence of certain diagnostic trouble codes (DTCs). This service will be performed free of charge (parts and labor). Ford Motor Company said I should file this complaint. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA

I received a recall letter 24V-444. My 2014 F-150 has repeatedly shown the symptoms described in the recall letter. Truck will downshift to 1st gear at various speeds, and the rear tires will slide when it occurs at a higher speed, and has done so on several occasions. On [XXX] I took vehicle to Auto Gallery Ford in Gaffney SC. They supposedly did the fix recommended. They told me to bring it back if it downshifted again. On the way home from the dealer, it downshifted again on the highway and almost caused an accident. I took the vehicle back and was told that Ford would not pay for the new part needed because a certain code was not showing up upon inspection, regardless of the fact that it has downshifted many times while I was driving. It is progressively getting worse and also showing an illuminated wrench symbol when the downshifting occurs. This is my only vehicle so I have to drive it in this unsafe condition.

I took my 2014 Ford F-150 to liberty Ford in Maple Heights for the current recall and to also check out why the engine light was coming on intermittently. They advised there was a timing chain issue and contacted my extended warranty company, endurance. Endurance does not want to cover the cost to repair the vehicle. From my investigation it appears that the timing chain should last up to 100,000 miles and my vehicle currently has 60k plus miles. My question is could this possibly be a recall situation?
