2020 FORD F-150- Stanwood, WA
Not really a safety issue, but Ford is aware there is a problem with their 10-speed transmissions. When we went in to ask them a question; they TOLD US what we were experiencing, before we could tell them. Ford has a 3 step process to fix. The repair staff told us that the 1st fix never works. The second fix may work. The 3rd fix is another transmission with the SAME possible problem. They have completed the 1st step; but they want the truck for weeks, without a loaner, to see if they can "duplicate" the problem. Clunking and shaking when it shifts. We know they have had "service memos" in regard to the trannies; but why should the consumer be put out if they know there is a problem?

2020 FORD F-150- San Leandro, CA
I've owned this F150 truck since 2020, purchasing it on Memorial Day. However, every year, I've experienced two to three instances where the car suddenly cuts off in the middle of a traffic light, accompanied by a yellow warning sign on the screen. I suspect it has something to do with the Auto Start-Stop technology. The most recent incident (1 month ago) while I was driving toward a traffic light direction that was turning red. I gradually slowed down until I came to a complete stop. When I lifted my foot off the brake pedal, the car simply shut off. This issue has become increasingly concerning, especially since it can occur in unpredictable situations. I'm hoping someone can provide some insight into the cause of this problem and suggest a solution.

2020 FORD F-150- Pearson, WI
The computer system would set off all the alarms and shut down truck. Yes i think it can be inspected. My safety was at risk when truck would shut down traveling down the road at highway speeds and losing power brakes, power steering overall control, and this would happen when raining and wet slushy conditions on the road way. Yes No not to my knowledge. Yes all the alarms would go off and a second later vehicle would shut down. It was always during wet conditions, sometimes alarms would all go off and truck would stay running i would pull over to side of road and alarms would go away i believe after drying out?

2020 FORD F-150- Oakland, MI
Unable to accelerate vehicle while driving on the freeway. The vehicle began making clucking sounds and jerking when trying to accelerate. You could feel vehicle shift harshly and was struggling to shift. While trying to merge onto the expressway, this became extremely dangerous when I was unable to accelerate. I was able to exit freeway and the problem stopped. A couple of weeks later while driving on the freeway the issue occurred again this time for a longer period of time, unable to accelerate another driver on the freeway flagged us down to inform us that smoke was coming out of the vehicle. We were not able to see or smell any smoke while inside of the vehicle. We were able to exit the freeway pullover and had the car towed to the Ford dealership. we are currently waiting for more information. This was extremely scary and could’ve been much worse. Luckily we were able to get off freeway and exit the truck.

2020 FORD F-150- Herkimer , NY
The automatic transmission jumps and tries to go forward when the truck is started. Even though it is still in park. I’m afraid that it will actually go forward and hit something or someone. My investigation online has found a lot of complaints regarding the 10 speed automatic transmission in this vehicle.
