NHTSA Complaint #11361665 — 2012 FORD F-150

MULTIPLE TIMES WHILE IN MOTION 45MPH + (SPONTANEOUSLY) , ORANGE WRENCH COMES UP ON MY DASH, SPEEDOMETER DROPS TO ZERO, ENGINE POWER IS CUT TO ALMOST NOTHING, AND A FEW TIMES AT HIGHER SPEEDS 60MPH +, THE WHEELS LOCK DUE TO TRANSMISSION DOWNSHIFTING OUT OF NOWHERE. THIS HAS HAPPENED ON THE LOOP, CITY STREETS, HIGHWAYS, IT'S RANDOM. I CAN ONLY LIMP MY WAY TO A SAFE SPOT TO PULL OVER, TURN ENGINE OFF THEN BACK ON AND EVERYTHING GENERALLY STARTS WORKING AGAIN. LAST NIGHT ON A CITY ROAD DOING ABOUT 55MPH IT LOCKED UP AGAIN BUT REFUSED TO DROP OUT OF 5TH GEAR THOUGH I WAS AT A DEAD STOP. EVEN TURNING THE KEY OF AND ON WOULD NOT RE SET IT. IT FINALLY GOT TO 1ST AFTER MESSING WITH IT AND I GOT IT HOME, HOOKED IT TO MY OBD2 READER AND IT IS THROWING A P0720 OUTPUT SPEED SHAFT SENSOR MALFUNCTION CODE AND MY CHECK ENGINE LIGHT WILL NOT GO OFF. I HAVE ATTACHED A PICTURE OF THE CODE IT IS NOW SHOWING, AND DATE OF MALFUNCTION IS MOST RECENT.
