Consumer Description

Hello, WE have been experiencing downshifting and slipping of shifting with our Ford f-150 that has 80k miles on it. This has caused us to loose power on the road thus putting us in an unsafe position with other drivers. WE have reached out to our local dealership where we purchased the vehicle and found that we need a new transmission. When researching this, we found that there are alot of Ford f-150 owners the same years as ours that have the same situation. We are concerned that this is not a recall. It is obviously a safety issue for drivers and others on the road.
