2019 FORD F-150 Complaints

While driving on the highway at approximately 65mph the trucks display showed that the transmission shifted from 9th gear down to 1st gear, the truck however did not stall or shift hard. Shortly after the Ford pass sent a message stating there is a power train malfunction / reduced power. And that the transmission control module has detected a concern when trying to shift 4th gear. And a failsafe logic disabled 4th gear for the remainder of the key cycle.

Typical known issue with the 10speed transmission. Stall shifting between 3rd and 5th gear. When shifting under acceleration and shifting from 3rd to 5th the transmission hangs and then slams into 5th. Happens frequently.

When accelerating from first to second gear, there is a power boost into second gear whether I want the power or not. Example: if I am turning I am not accelerating but my engine will continue to go up in rpm’s and make me go into second gear. Dangerous

The contact owns a 2019 Ford F-150. The contact stated that while driving at various speeds and depressing the accelerator pedal, the vehicle hesitated. The contact stated that while attempting to reverse, there was a loud sound coming from the front of the vehicle. A dealer was contacted. The vehicle was taken to the dealer to be diagnosed; however, the diagnostic result was unknown. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the failure and informed the contact that the issue would be escalated. The approximate failure mileage was 35,000.

60,000 miles on a10R80 Transmission it slips and will not pull grinding noise going down the road then will kick back into gear. Dangerous going down road. Been a long issue with these transmissions Ford should have fixed.

Transmission It's is slipping, jerky harsh shifting that throws the truck resulting in stress on the neck and body.

The transmission will intermittently shift out of gear and sometimes in and out of gears at will when driving and slams into gears sometimes. This creates a massive liability when on the road.

I recently purchased/financed a 2019 f-150 xlt and told the dealer I was using the vehicle to tow a boat from XXX to XXX. The vehicle was inspected and released XXX and I left the morning of the third. Made it 2/3 the way and started experiencing dangerous down shifts and up shifts on the highway and off which almost caused me to get into a couple accidents. I managed to make it to my destination safely. Upon arrival the battery died and I thought that could be the problem. Purchased a new battery and this did temporarily help the issue and the vehicle ran more efficiently. Then on the return journey before I left I did a reset protocol for the transmission computer. That helped but eventually failed. I had more dangerous shifting towards the end of the trip just before getting home which also almost caused a accident. On top of all this my dog was thrown into the back of my seat from the issue. Im very upset and am considering legal action against the dealer and possibly Ford. I feel lucky to be alive. Ruined my vacation and has had me all worked up that I bought a lemon I still owe $24,000 in financing on. Thought my dog was injured too. Took him to the vet he was ok. Talked to a bunch of resources and spoke to a former Ford mechanic who admitted to me after becoming quite about my dog smashing into my seat. He admitted the same thing happened to him and his dog died. So there’s definitely a major issue with these transmissions which I have researched and found that ford was recycling foreign transmissions and putting their components in them and their failing left and right. Someone needs to further investigate this. I have been seeing some recent news reports of it. As well as every Ford dealer in the area is booked up in the transmission department for months. More than likely repairing these solenoid bodies and computer modules. Note: the dog was brought to the veterinarian to be checked out.

Vehicle initially had a delayed shift, then began to engage really roughly. Thereafter, going down the interstate while traveling at a moderate rate of speed it briefly locked up and then I lost forward movement. After taking it into a dealership several times and reporting the problem, they couldn’t find any issues. Now the transmission gets hot when I travel for more than a couple of hours at around70 mph. I took it into service center today and they told me that Ford knows about the issue on my truck. They can fix it for a little over 10k, but I didn’t expect to purchase the truck with a defect. I would like some sort of recourse since I now researched the issues and found out it’s a serious problem all over.

The front passenger brake caliper came completely off when I was driving.the only warning I had was when my brake pedal went straight to the floor when depressed.i was forced to pull into a gas station and keep driving in circles till the vehicle slowed enough to drive into a curb to stop so I could put the vehicle in park.i then had my vehicle towed home and replaced the part myself as I dont feel comfortable taking my vehicle to the dealership to be worked on because of past experiences. The other issue is when I accelerate my pcm goes into what I would call it as limp mode.the vehicle has no power to accelerate and it happens randomly.it will stay like that until the vehicle is turned off and key removed for atleast 15 minutes.when started back up it is back to normal but if the accelerator pedal is push to quickly it will go back Into limp mode if I put the vehicle in sport mode it happens almost immediately. Also the transmission has random down and upshifts and shifts very harshly at times.i drive over a mountain pass atleast 5 times a month and have been stuck on the side of the road multiple times waiting for my vehicle to go back to normal to make it over the pass.
