Consumer Description
TRANSMISSION OR TORQUE CONVERTER CAUSES THE TRUCK TO SHAKES AND SHUDDER. IT ALSO DOWN SHIFTS AND IS A KICKING FEELING. AT TIMES FEELING LIKE SOMEONE HAS REAR ENDED YA. THROWS HEAD BACK IT'S SO VIOLENT. THE SHAKING AND SHUDDERING TYPICALLY STARTS AT AROUND 38-54 MPH. THEN FOR NO REASON AT DIFFERENT SPEEDS UP TO 80 MPH. ANYTIME THERE IS A UPHILL GRADE IT CONSTANTLY DOWNSHIFTS AND SHAKES EVEN MORE. THE SHUDDERS ARE SO VIOLENT THE MIRRORS CAN'T BE USED TO SEE ANYTHING. I CAN FEEL IT IN MY TEETH. THIS HAPPENS ON CITY STREETS AND ON THE HIGHWAY. HAVE TAKEN IN SEVERAL TIMES FOR THIS PROBLEM SINCE IT WAS NEW. EVEN WHEN TALKING ON BLUETOOTH PHONE- OTHERS HAVE SAID THEY COULD HEAR IT OVER THE PHONE. FORD HAS REFUSED AND NEVER FIXED THIS PROBLEM AND TOLD ME THIS IS NORMAL FOR THE TRANSMISSION TO PROTECT ITSELF. WHAT BS. I'VE NEVER HAD A VEHICLE THAT DID THIS ON PURPOSE. THERE ARE THOUSANDS OF COMPLAINTS ABOUT THIS FROM BEFORE 2010. WHY ISN'T MY YEAR MODEL TRUCK COVERED AND THOSE BEFORE MINE?? NOW THERE'S A RECALL FOR THIS VERY THING FOR 2011-2013 YEAR MODELS. MY TRUCK IS DANGEROUS AND A PAIN IN THE BUTT TO DRIVE. FORD NEEDS TO FIX ALL OF THE VEHICLES PRODUCED WITH THIS PROBLEM NOT JUST 3 YEARS. 🤬 I'M DOING THIS ON MY PHONE. I HAVE RECORDS AND IF NEEDED YOU CAN COME DRIVE WITH ME AND SEE FOR YOURSELF. SURE HOPE ME OR ONE OF MY FAMILY MEMBERS DOESN'T GET HURT DRIVING THIS TRUCK BECAUSE OF THIS CRAP. SORRY, REALLY PISSED THAT FORD IS GOING TO CONTINUE TO GET AWAY WITH SCREWING FOLKS OVER. HAPPENS FROM 2010- TO PRESENT. (2019)
