2015 FORD F-150 Vehicle Speed Control Problems

1. System Failed: Power Train (Transmission). Component Failed: The 6R80 6-speed automatic transmission, specifically the internal lead frame and the direct drum. Inspection: No, the failed unit was replaced on December 19, 2025, but itemized diagnostic reports and repair invoices from both a Ford dealer and an independent shop are available for inspection. 2. The vehicle experienced sudden, unexpected downshifting and a temporary loss of power while in motion. These incidents occurred frequently and randomly, particularly while accelerating or traversing inclines, creating "unsafe driving scenarios" where the vehicle could have been rear-ended or lost traction due to abrupt gear changes. Furthermore, the vehicle eventually entered "limp mode," where it would "buck" during shifts and fail to accelerate under load, leaving the driver vulnerable in traffic. 3. Yes, by both. Independent Center: Super Tech Automotive confirmed on December 11, 2025, that the transmission line pressure dropped from 158 psi to 20...

While driving at normal speeds, the transmission hesitates and pops when shifting into 4th gear. The vehicle slows down unexpectedly before shifting and will suddenly downshift without warning. This causes abrupt deceleration and creates a safety concern, especially at highway speeds. The issue occurs intermittently and without driver input. Even when I’m in normal gears it will downshift and cause me to slow and lose control even when I am not breaking. It occurs at just 35 mph- highway speeds.

I have had 2 instances of my F150 downshifting at highway speeds to 2nd gear while driving. I was not towing a trailer, just driving normally in both cases on my daily commute to work. The first instance was resolved by coming to a stop, shifting to park, and shifting into drive again. The second instance, I released the accelerator completely, shifted the gear selector to neutral and back to drive while coasting and it seemed to correct. Neither have led to loss of control but it is startling and not a great thing for the longevity and safety of my vehicle. I see how it could become a problem. After instance number 1, I thought perhaps it was a fluke. I now have learned that there have been prior model years of this truck transmission that also have had issues and I am more concerned that this get resolved....

gears dropped fast on the highway, rpm's went up because my foot was on gas because I was on the highway, rear end locked up and I skidded going from 60MPH to 30 in a second.

A mechanic confirmed the truck has an issue with the speed sensor. On the daily, the truck will experience shifting issues, gets stuck in 3rd, and will not go past 5th. I have to turn off the vehicle and restart and it resets. I've read this is a known issue, and F150s for model years prior to and after 2015 have been recalled for this same thing. I also believe there are already a significant number of complaints for the 2015 model year for this exact issue. Please issue a recall.

Transmission randomly down shifts and then shifts back up a gear. Then speed control randomly drops and won’t respond

The contact owns a 2015 Ford F-150. The contact stated that while driving 75 MPH, the accelerator pedal was depressed; however, the vehicle failed to accelerate as intended. In addition, the check engine warning light illuminated, and the vehicle stalled. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired by an independent mechanic or dealer. The dealer was made aware of the failure; however, the contact was requested to pay a diagnostic fee. The contact stated that due to the persistent failure, the contact was fearful of driving the vehicle. The contact stated that the failure had occurred four times. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure, and a case was filed. The contact referenced an unknown recall; however, the VIN was not included in the recall. The contact was advised to contact the NNHTSA Hotline to report the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 80,000.

Today, [XXX] while driving at highway speed this vehicle experienced a unrequested transmission downshift, from 6th to 3rd, causing unexpected rapid vehicle deceleration. I was located in the center lane of an Interstate and travelling at 70 mph when this incident happen which force the traffic behind me to take rapid accident avoidance actions. I did not hear any audible or see any visual warnings that this incident was about to happen. This vehicle will be taken to Starling Ford located at 3000 Cheney Hwy, Titusville, Fl 32780 on June 16, 2025.

The transmission jumps gears at any speed, I was researching the topic and saw the NHTSA is probing some F150s for a similar problem. And I was wondering if my vehicle was in the affected line of production.

I noticed in the fall of 2024 that my transmission stared shifting hard between 30-40 mph during acceleration. I had the local Ford dealership check out the issue and they stated I needed a new transmission and included an estimate. I decided to seek information from 2 independent transmission shops and they could not confirm that I needed the transmission replaced at that time. The vehicle has been driving fine and I recently started to notice the hard shift again at 30 mph. Every once in a while, when the hard shift occurs, it seems like I lose power to the drive train and my vehicle slows down to about 15 mph and vehicles need to go around me. It only lasts for a few seconds and then the acceleration will continue to drive normal. I do notice an increase in RPM's from time to time as well while shifting...

I was traveling [XXX] near Liverpool, PA at 60mph, the truck flashed a quick code on the dash and then suddenly downshifted from 6th gear to 1st almost spinning the truck as the rear wheels locked up momentarily. It would not upshift past 3rd gear and had to travel 35 miles home like that. I called my local Ford dealer (Parsons) and they said bring the truck in for diagnostic testing, so I did. Meanwhile I searched the internet to see if others had the issue. Turns out they did, BUT my 2015 with the 6R80 was NOT in the recall notice. Ford said it was the lead frame and needed to be replaced. IF it was a known problem, why not inform owners of these trucks. That said, Ford wanted $1500 to fix it, BUT they did not have the part. So I drove the truck (never with my...

[XXX]: check engine light was on and codes P2196 and P2198 were present. The dealer suspected it was the purge valve, causing the problem so they replaced it and reset the codes. 10/10/24: I brought the truck in to have it looked at due to the check engine light being on again. I was told the lead frame needed to be replaced but was on backorder. The bill to diagnose this was 196.80 and I was told I could still drive it. On [XXX], I had to bring my truck in to be inspected because while I was going about 70 mph it all of a sudden downshifted and jerked me forward like it was going to abruptly stop. The check engine light came on and I had to drive pretty slow to avoid a breakdown on the interstate. Very scary to have this happen in interstate traffic It could...

It's the same issue as Recall Notice 22S02/NHTSA Recall 22v011. The replacement part is MR3Z-7583-A 1X ($2-$5 part with 30 second install), but they do not show it under parts for my truck, they would prefer to sell me the whole brake pedal assembly ($50+ part and labor probably diagnosis charge in addition to part replacement). The part becomes brittle and breaks. This caused dead battery, 5 hours from home, due to lights staying on, allowed me to start and put truck into gear without touching the brake, lost acceleration between 45 & 50 mph, cruise control would not turn on and message presents that hill assist is not available.

I was driving at 65 mph when my 2015 F150 shifted into 1st gear. I started skidding sideways and almost flipped but was able to run through the gears quickly and got it into Neutral. This has happened a few other times since the initial incident. I constantly receive codes related to lead frame assembly issue: P0720, P0721, P0722, P161B, etc. I am in desperate need of a new lead frame assembly so my vehicle does not crash on the highway. Thanks!

The Lead Frame in my truck went bad. I was driving on the highway doing 70mph, the truck downshifted to 5th and I lost control of what gear I was in. When I came to a stop the truck was still in 5th gear and it died. I was unable to restart the truck and had to get it towed.

i was driving on the highway at 50MPH in 5th gear. the truck goes in neutral on its own and then 1st gear for about two seconds and then back to 5th gear. the ground was wet and the rear tires skid. i believe that's what prevented the tires locking up and getting out of control it was a very scary situation that could have ended very bad.

What component or system failed or malfunctioned, and is it available for inspection upon request? Transmission lead frame - error P072 - traveling on the interstate at 65mph and transmission downshifted in 1st gear nearly causing the car behind me to rear-end me. Lucky i wasnt killed or serioiusly hurt. How was your safety or the safety of others put at risk? yes Has the problem been reproduced or confirmed by a dealer or independent service center? yes Has the vehicle or component been inspected by the manufacturer, police, insurance representatives or others?yes Were there any warning lamps, messages or other symptoms of the problem prior to the failure, and when did they first appear? no

6/25/24 I PUT MY 2015 F150 IN REVERSE AND GAVE IT JUST A LITTLE ACCELERATION AND IT IMMEDIATELY ACCELERATED FAST CROSSING THE STREET AND HITTING A UTILITY POLE TOTALING MY TRUCK. I DID SOME RESEARCH ON A FORD FORUM AN SAW WHERE OTHE PEOPLE HAD HAD RAPID UNEXPLAINED ACCERATION.ONE PERSON SAID IT WAS BECAUSE OF A FAULTY ACCELERATO PEDAL POSITON ALSO KNOWN AS APP. MY SAFETY AND ANYONE WALKING OR DRIVING BY MY HOUSE WERE GREATLY PUT AT RISK. THE PROBLEM HAS NOT BEEN REPRODUCED OR CONFIRMED BY ANYONE. THERE WERE NO WARNING LAMPS OR MESSAGES. THIS NIGHTMARE CAME OUT OF NOWHERE.

I am driving back to Florida on [XXX] and my engine light comes on and the wrench symbol on my dash, as I am going about 70 mph and accelerate suddenly my truck going from gear/speed 6 down to 5. I take my foot off the accelerate and it goes back to speed /gear 6. If i stay at one speed and do not accelerate its ok, the minute I accelerate it changes speed. I took it into the Ford Dealer in Daytona Beach, and they are fixing the problem, but I don't have all the details. I am wondering if this is related to your recall to the 2014 F-150 where the problem is exactly like mine. I have not gotten the truck back, only that it is costing around $2400.

The 2015 F150 shifted itself from drive at 60mph to 1st gear. I as leading traffic when this occurred. The rest of traffic went around me as, I went to shoulder of rd. The F150 shuttered and was unable to be steered safely off the road. Warning lights flashed but as a driver I was unable to watch as traffic behind me was more important then watching F150. As a Simi was also close to me. This was a very scary event! As my husband was with me and is [XXX] he doesn't drive. Smoke came from under the vehicle. I see this is a common accurate with the F series of 2014. I would suggest checking the 2015. We have since had it fixed and it now drives better. I noticed a marked difference, from when I purchased it a few mos. Earlier. Seriously it could have been a...

In 2022, while behind the wheel of my 2015 F150, I would be driving down the highway (70+ mph) and the transmission would suddenly downshift to 1st gear, then jump to 3rd, and then back down to first gear, all over the place. This happened on several occasions. It was erratic, I experienced sudden changes in speed, sudden and frightening revving of the engine (especially on the highway) and on several occasions I had to make sudden changes to my driving to ensure my safety as well as the safety of others on the road. After I was able to pull over and turn my truck off, the truck would either not turn back on or take a while to be able to turn on. I had no warning that the transmission was about to shift gears and only noticed a check engine light after the incident had occurred. After...

Vehicle speedometer working it radically

During normal highway driving, the vehicle abruptly went into "limp mode" with a complete loss of throttle control. The engine remained running, but I was unable to increase the speed of the vehicle. Once stopped, the vehicle showed several alerts on the dashboard: "Service Advancetrac," "Hill Assist Not Available," and "See Owners Manual." I was able to scan for fault codes and returned DTC P2112: Throttle Actuator Control System Stuck Closed. Upon further research, there is a Ford Technical Service Bulletin # TSB 16-0193 which states the vehicle may exhibit an intermittent loss of power and/or an illuminated powertrain malfunction (wrench) lamp with diagnostic trouble codes (DTCs) P2111, P2112 and/or P2119 stored in powertrain control module (PCM) memory." After restarting the vehicle, it returned to normal operation with the dashboard errors remaining. A Ford dealer is scheduled to look at the vehicle. I have been told they expect to diagnose...

No lights previous to incident. Sudden engine & speed malfunction . Yes, it happened multiple times heading to the ford dealer-2 mi away. We kept the hazard lights on. Sudden loss of power while driving, engine goes into limp mode, down hill assist light and altrack light comes on. Truck restarts but again limps unexpectedly. Took it to dealer -it was the throttle body that had been replaced 3 1/2 years ago by dealer.

accelator stuck to the floor a couple of times when gassing it to pass other cars on the roads. The pedal would actually will stay pressed down even when my foot is off the pedal, it will speed the truck up even when pressing down hard on the brakes. when i got it to stop and cut the truck off while in park and turning the key the rpms were going absouletely nuts. looking to see if this is a common occurance. thanks in advance!

The contact owns a 2015 Ford F-150. The contact stated while driving at low speeds and attempting to park the vehicle, the vehicle inadvertently went into reverse, then accelerated forward. The vehicle failed to stop and jumped the curb and abruptly stopped. There was an abnormal clacking noise detected. There were no warning lights illuminated. The vehicle was restarted and drove as designed. The contact called the local dealer who informed him to schedule an appointment. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The manufacturer was contacted but no assistance was provided. The failure mileage was approximately 153,000.

The contact owns a 2015 Ford F-150. The contact stated that while the vehicle was idling in the McDonald’s drive-thru pickup line, the vehicle suddenly experienced unintended acceleration and drove over the curb causing the driver to lose control of the vehicle and almost crashed into a wall. The cause of the failure was not yet determined. The manufacturer and local dealer were not notified of the failure. The failure mileage was 133,751.

While driving at posted speeds on open highway and in congested work zones, this F-150 experienced an Electronic Throttle Body failure 5 times between Rochester Hills, MI and Granger, IN on 9/13/2022. It happened again on 9/14/2022 in city two way traffic with no shoulder. In each incident, the vehicle went into limp mode with rough idle and had to be completely stopped, turned off and restarted in high traffic, hazardous stopping locations. This happened once before in the mountains in Utah, in a construction zone back on 5/02/2021. At that time, the check engine light did not stay on and Ford was unable to find a code. It did not happen again until 9/13/2022. These incidents put me and my family in danger with each episode. Ford is fully aware of this issue, has in the past and should notify owners of the potential issue and continue to make...

I was driving down the road like I always do, the cruise control just shut off. I tried to re-engage it and it would not respond, about 15 minutes later I engaged the cruise control successfully. This has happened numerous times over the last three weeks and now in order to engage the cruise control, I lift with my fingertips, the top left and the bottom left of the button and then it will engage. One occasion, the dash lights in trip 1 mode flashed. Then the control began working again.

ON 2-24-2021 THESE TWO THINGS HAD NEVER HAPPENED BEFORE 1. I NOTICED WHEN ARRIVED TO WORK THE P FOR THE GEAR SELECTOR STAYED ILLUMINATED AFTER VEHICLE IS SHUT OFF. A CO-WORKER POINTED THIS OUT ALSO THIS HAD NEVER HAPPENED BEFORE 2. WHILE IN A PARKING SPACE ON SIDE OF CVS DRUG STORE NO OTHER CARS NEAR AFTER STARTING THE VEHICLE AND PUTTING INTO REVERSE THE VEHICLE ACCELERATED ON ITS OWN WHILE APPLYING BRAKE DIDN'T STOP HIT A CEMENT POLE BARRIER, TRUCK KEPT TRYING TO JERK BACKWARDS AFTER 2-3 SECONDS IT STOPPED SHIFTED VEHICLE FROM REVERSE TO DRIVE TO MOVE BACK INTO PARKING SPACE VEHICLE ACCELERATED ON ITS OWN; QUICKLY SHIFTED FROM DRIVE TO PARK VEHICLE CONTINUE TO MOVE FORWARD WHILE BRAKE PEDAL APPLIED AND HIT A TREE AND TRUCK TURNED OFF IF NOT FOR TREE WOULD HAVE WENT DOWN EMBANKMENT ON TO A FREEWAY

WHILE IN MOTION AND ON THE FREEWAY THERE IS POWER LOSS, SHAKING, ENGINE SPUTTERING AND BARELY HAS ENOUGH POWER TO GET OFF THE ROAD, HILL START ASSIST DISABLED, DECENT CONTROL DISABLED, SERVICE WRENCH INDICATOR, SERVICE ADVANCE TRAC. I POWERED OFF THE TRUCK, WAITING 10 SECONDS AND IT STARTS AND RUNS FINE UNTIL IT DOES IT AGAIN.

WHILE ON OPEN FREEWAY WITH ADAPTIVE CRUISE SET AT 70MPH PASSED A SEMI TRUCK THE BRAKES WERE APPLIED VIOLENTLY. THIS OCCURED 3 SEPARATE TIMES.

TRUCK FAULT CODE FLASHES AND TRUCK SHUTS DOWN INTO SAFE MODE. THREE TIMES IT OCCURRED WHILE DRIVING ON FREEWAY AT 70 MPH AND THE FOURTH TIME IT HAPPENED IN AN A SIDE ROAD DOING 35 MPH. EVERY TIME THE SAME THING HAPPENED, THE TRUCK SHUT DOWN IN SAFE MODE SHOWING FAULT CODES. I WOULD STOP, IT WOULD IDLE VERY ROUGH, I WAS NOT ABLE TO MOVE IT AS IT WOULD NOT REV OR LET ME INCREASE RPM. I WOULD HAVE TO SHUT OFF TRUCK, TURN IT BACK ON, IT WOULD RESET AND DRIVE LIKE NORMAL. TOOK TO COURTESY FORD FOUR TIMES TO DIAGNOSE AND THEY COULD NOT FIND ANYTHING, I BOUGHT A CODE READY AND THE TRUCK WENT INTO FAULT CODE AND SAFETY MODE AGAIN, THE CODE READ P2112. FORD FOUND TSB 16-0139 APPLIED AND REPLACED THROTTLE BODY AND CHARGED ME $496.95 FOR REPAIR. 2015 FORD F150 WITH 58K MILES.

I WAS DRIVING MY 2015 F-150 ON A CITY STREET AT 35 MPH WHEN SUDDENLY MY TRUCK LOST ALL ACCELERATION POWER AND BEGAN TO SHAKE VIOLENTLY. THE ENGINE CONTINUED TO SHAKE AND SPUTTER AS I BROUGHT THE VEHICLE TO A STOP. THE SERVICE ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON ALONG WITH TWO CODES TO 'SERVICE ADVANCETRAC' AND 'HILL DECENT CONTROL FAULT'. I TURNED THE VEHICLE OFF, THEN RESTARTED. IT SEEMED TO TAKE LONGER TO CRANK, BUT IT STARTED AND I PROCEEDED DOWN THE ROAD. EACH TIME THE VEHICLE WOULD REACH 35 MPH THE SAME SEQUENCE WOULD OCCUR WITH THE VEHICLE SHAKING VIOLENTLY AND LOSING ALL ACCELERATION POWER ALONG WITH THE SERVICE CODES FLASHING. I RESEARCHED MY PROBLEM AND READ STORY AFTER STORY ON THE INTERNET OF OTHERS WHO OWNED 2015 F-150'S WITH THE SAME EXACT ISSUE HAPPENING. I EVEN FOUND A RECALL FORD ISSUED: 16B32 FOR A DEFECTIVE THROTTLE BODY, BUT WAS...

I OWN A 2015 FORD F150. I WAS DRIVING AT 60 MPH, THE VEHICLE ABRUPTLY DECELERATED. THE WRENCH AND LIMP MODE WARNING LIGHTS ILLUMINATED WHILE THE FAILURE CODE P2112 OCCURRED. I HAD TO COAST MY VEHICLE ON TO THE ROAD SHOULDER AND RESTART THE ENGINE. I HAD TO STOP AND RESTART NUMEROUS TIMES BEFORE I COULD MAKE IT HOME, OFF OF A BUSY HIGHWAY. WHEN IT STALLED ON ME THE NEXT DAY, I HAD THE VEHICLE TOWED TO THE DEALER AND PAID FOR A DIAGNOSTIC THAT LOCATED A FAILURE CODE AT THE THROTTLE BODY.

CRUISE CONTROL SHUTS OFF DURING OPERATION. INTERMITTENTLY WILL NOT TURN ON. ANALOG SPEEDOMETER WILL INDICATE SPEEDS IN EXCESS OF 40MPH SLOWER THAN REAL SPEED. STUCK AT 40MPH WHEN COMES TO COMPLETE STOP.

WHILE TRYING TO PASS A DUMP TRUCK ON THE INTERSTATE WITH ADAPTIVE CRUISE ON, VEHICLE SLAMMED ON THE BRAKES, AND CAUSING THE VEHICLE BEHIND ME TO SLAM ON THEIRS TO AVOID HITTING ME.. I NOTICED THAT THERE HAD BEEN A RECALL FOR THIS BEFORE IN 2015, BUT I NEVER RECEIVED ANY NOTICE OF THIS.. IT IS A VERY SERIOUS ROAD HAZARD!!

VEHICLE ACCELERATED OF ITS OWN ACCORD DRIVING STRAIGHT ON HIGHWAY. TOOK TO DEALER (VILLAGE FORD, OCALA, FL), THEY RAN BLACK BOX AND DID WARRANTY WORK. A FEW WEEKS LATER, VEHICLE ACCELERATED AGAIN OF ITS OWN ACCORD WHILE ATTEMPTING TO SLOW DOWN TO MAKE A LEFT TURN. VEHICLE COLLIDED INTO A TREE.

DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD TODAY BEING MINDFUL OF THE SPEED LIMIT SINCE I JUST GOT A SPEEDING TICKET TWO WEEKS PRIOR. I LOOKED AT THE SPEEDOMETER AND IT READ 62. I KNOW THE DIFFERENCE I SPEED VARIATION JUST FROM DRIVER FEELING AND EXPERIENCE. WELL I APPLIED THE BRAKES AND THE SPEEDOMETER DID NOT MOVE. WHEN I REACHED MY DESTINATION I PUT THE CAR IN PARK AND NOTICED MY SPEEDOMETER WAS FROZEN AT 40 MPH. SO NOW ACCORDING TO THE TRUCKS BRAIN 40 MPH = 0 MPH

WHILE ACCELERATING THE VEHICLE TO GET TO 55 MPH THE ENGINE SUDDENLY LOST THROTTLE RESPONSE AND BEGAN TO RUN ROUGH. SIMULTANEOUSLY THE DASH FLASHED THAT UPHILL ASSIST WAS DEACTIVATED AND FLASHED THE MAINTENANCE WRENCH. UPON PULLING THE VEHICLE OVER AND SHUTTING IT OFF AND RESTARTING IT THE VEHICLE RAN NORMALLY. THE FREQUENCY OF THIS INCREASED FROM ONCE EVERY COUPLE OF WEEKS TO NOW UP TO 5 TIMES IN 10 MILES. WHEN IT CAUSES AN OBD CODE IT IS P2112. IT OCCURS MOST FREQUENTLY WHILE ACCELERATING TO HIGHWAY SPEEDS BUT HAS ALSO OCCURRED WHILE AT HIGHWAY SPEED AND ACCELERATING TO VILLAGE SPEEDS OF 30 MPH. IT HAS EVEN OCCURRED ONCE WHILE USING CRUISE CONTROL AS THE VEHICLE WAS CLIMBING A HILL. AT THIS TIME IT IS UNKNOWN WHAT IS CAUSING THE FAULT. AN ATTEMPT HAS BEEN MADE TO CLEAN THE THROTTLE BODY AND THE PROBLEM PERSISTS. A NEW THROTTLE BODY IS...

I PICKED UP MY 2015 FORD F150 ON THURSDAY OF LAST WEEK BECAUSE THE MASTER CYLINDER WAS LEAKING AND CAUSED MY WIFE TO LOSE HER BRAKES WHILE DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY. I DROVE MY TRUCK TO OUR FAMILY REUNION ABOUT AN HOUR AND HALF AWAY ON SATURDAY WHICH WAS 2 DAYS AFTER I HAD PICKED MY TRUCK UP AND THE CRUISE CONTROL WOULD NOT SHUT OFF BY TAPING THE BRAKE. MY WIFE AND I WERE TRAVELING ON A HIGHWAY AND I WAS IN THE SLOW LANE WITH THE CRUISE SET AT 72MPH. I WAS APPROACHING THE VEHICLE IN FRONT OF ME, SO I LOOKED IN MY LEFT MIRROR AND NOTICED A CAR COMING UP BESIDE ME. I WAS UNABLE TO PASS, SO I TOUCHED THE BRAKES TO DISENGAGE THE CRUISE CONTROL AND I LOOKED BACK IN MY MIRROR AGAIN TO SEE IF THE CAR BESIDE ME WAS GOING TO PASS...
