POWER TRAIN
Transmission shudder, feels like driving over rumble strips, reducing power and causing vehicle to slow, sometimes causing engine to stall. When it occurs in traffic and/or at highway speeds can cause dangerous rear-end collision. The vehicle is at the dealership/service department now. No warning light, symptoms began suddenly and have increased in frequency and severity since first occurring less than 100 miles ago.

POWER TRAIN
Harsh shifting especially from 7th to 8th gear. Delayed shifting which causes a problem cause of the truck slowing down while in motion. It puts me at risk of getting hit from behind when it does this. There's also a vibration that happens randomly while driving. It has started jerking forward upon start up

POWER TRAIN
The 10R80 transmission on the F150 has extremely erratic shifting, which occasionally results in delayed shifts or what feels like no acceleration when gas pedal is pressed. Turning left through oncoming traffic, I've had the transmission hesitate for moments before engaging, resulting in almost being hit by oncoming traffic. I've also had the delayed shifting AT SPEED cause the vehicle to temporarily slow down which almost resulted in being rear ended.

ENGINE
At 68000 miles I noticed the engine is burning through oil at a rapid pace. A quart of oil a week is bad. If this happens to someone who doesn't keep up with their vehicle, and check it regularly it could be a devastating outcome. It's time Ford fixes this issue.

ENGINE
My transmission jumps or skips or sometimes simply doesn't engage between gears, resulting in upshifting for a slow performance when I need to cross a busy intersection, or staying in low gear and revving up when trying to get on the highway. Some days it works okay, some days it doesn't; but rarely does it work right.

POWER TRAIN
At about 80K on my truck I noticed severe slipping of the transmission while accelerating. Most noticeable when getting on the freeway, or accelerating to pass someone. I called our local dealership and the service person said there was no recall, but they could take a look at it. I saw online many reports of the same issue. They give possible fixes, fluid levels, reset adaptive tables, software updates, but it seems none of that works. I am a senior on a fixed income and a new transmission cost would be terrible. I have been very careful while accelerating and back off every time it slips. Just would like to get on a list.

POWER TRAIN
While driving my truck hard shifts from 3-4-5 and also at 8-9. It seems it misses shifting from 1-2-3 missing 2nd gear all together. At high speeds the transmission has slipped out of gear. I have called Ford and reported the issue as I was looking to see if this issue was recalled. Ford stated they were aware of the issue but no recalls were issued. I was forced to seek help from a transmission shop and incurred a huge bill replacing the CDF drum and rings.

At 70k miles cam phaser is starting to go bad and ford will not honor prior recall or TSB tn2103 and recall 21B10. Ford has issues a 40% repair coverage and does acknowledge the issue but does not think it's their fault now. Would like ford to issue a full recall on this issue.

POWER TRAIN
The 10-speed automatic transmission (10R80) in my 2019 Ford F-150 has failed and now requires a full replacement costing. Transmission failure while driving can cause sudden loss of propulsion or power, resulting in a dangerous loss of vehicle control on public roads. This is a known safety defect affecting many 2017–2020 F-150 models.

UNKNOWN OR OTHER
Transmission and Timing Chain Failure. John Vance Ford inspected F150 Jan 26, 2026 and Mar 2, 2026. On Mar 2, 2026 it was determined transmission ($8,740.85) and timing chain ($4,948.86) needed to be replaced. I experienced the vehicle slipping into neutral and lunging forward to find a gear while driving. The delay in gears could have easily caused a rearend collision...but did not...as vehicles behind me had to slow down without notice. John Vance confirmed faulty transmission. No warning lights or messages were displayed associated with the failure.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, ENGINE, POWER TRAIN
You can smell something getting hot the gauges jump everywhere and the 12 volt outlet constantly flashes red or orange. The screen goes out for long periods of time and the transmission shifts down so hard and then misses gears shifting up causing the person driving to lose momentum. I can not believe this truck has not been recalled yet. It’s been at the dealers shop 20 times for electrical issues. They knew it was a lemon and still sold it to us. I hope y’all do the right thing before someone gets killed.

Windshield wipers are only working on the slowest setting, regardless of the position of the speed. Safety is put at risk as it cannot keep up with the rain. The dealer has reproduced the issue. The vehicle has not been inspected by the manufacturer, police, or insurance. There are no warning lamps.
