Consumer Description

I took my truck, a 2020 Ford F150 (manufactured 11/19) to the Ford dealership to fix my AC (apparently a failed compressor) and to look at what could be causing a loud screeching noise from underneath the vehicle which began randomly happening a few months back. The truck had also started to lag when changing gears accompanied by a loud clunking sound. This was especially a concern when merging into traffic since the speed wasn't picking up normally. The dealership said I need a new transmission $8000 and a new AC compressor $1800. FOR A 4 YEAR OLD TRUCK!!!!??? I follow all upkeep such as oil changes and tire rotations.
