Consumer Description

While driving at highway speed of 55mph, the vehicle went into limp mode. Large gear icon came on the dash, speedometer went out as well as mileage indicator. The vehicle lost almost all power and started to slow rapidly. Pressing all the way down on the gas made the truck go maybe 30mph as a guess. This was a very dangerous situation as there was no where to pull over and cars were coming up behind me quickly. I finally was able to get off an exit ramp and pull over. After restarting the vehicle it moved properly. I scanned the vehicle and received the output speed shaft sensor fault code P0721 and P0722. There is a recall for this problem, but since I proactively brought my truck into Ford in July, all they did was a reprogram instead of fixing the actual cause of this, which is the lead frame in the transmission. Had I waited to bring my truck in for recall until those codes were thrown they would have fixed it. So now I’m stuck with a dangerous vehicle unless I pay for something Ford knew was already a problem.
