NHTSA Complaint #11479437 — 2016 FORD EXPEDITION

3 times now, My 2016 ford expedition has randomly down shifted at high speed. first time truck down shifted to first gear and was stuck in first until I used the manual gear shift button. The second time truck downshifted from 6th gear to 4th gear on a freeway, and it was stuck in 4th gear. The engine was over revving, I had to use the manual shift button to get truck out of 4th gear. and off the freeway. Third time I was on a freeway driving at freeway speeds and it downshifted/lost power, I was nearly hit by a motor home coming up behind me and I luckily pulled off on the shoulder before being hit. Thankfully I did not have any of my 4 children in the vehicle. Once again, no warning lights or codes, just random downshift, The truck has also slammed into gear when it downshifts when I am on surface roads. That too, is random and intermitent The truck has become unsafe to drive. It has been inspected twice by AAMCO they have not found anything, no codes and could not replicate. I asked them to check the lead frame on the transmission. The truck is now at the ford Dealer, to see if they are able to find anything and replicate the issue. It has been completely random when it happens but extremely dangerous. The day I dropped off the truck at the dealer, there was a guy behind me who had the exact same issues on his ford truck. this could easily become a deadly issue if Ford does not remedy the problem. If the Dealer does not provide a solution I will sell the truck, it is not worth risking my family's life and safety.
