  • Automatic transmission

At times, it is very difficult to shift to 1st,2nd, 3rd, or 4th gears after the vehicle is stopped. This is an intermitent problem that seems to be getting worse very quickly. I bought the vehicle new and within a few months had to take it back for this exact problem. I was told that the synchronous mechanism was replaced; however, the problem never went away. I took it back after a few weeks of the original repair because there still existed the same problem. The technician I spoke to said that this would go away once the gears wore a little. This has never happened. And here we are.

F-150

  • Automatic transmission
  • miles
The transmission(aode) shifts extremely harsh from 1st to 2nd gear about 75% of the time. Occasionally it will shift smoothly, it doesn't matter what amount of power is applied it shifts either harsh or smooth when it wants to. Changed fluid and found course aluminum shavings in pan, but only extremely fine ferrous metal particles on magnet. After initial fluid changes(I have done several) the transmission operates smoothly for about the first 20 to 30 miles then begins shifting harsh again.

Loose transmission carriage. I contacted Ford and they would not repair under the existing warranty. The transmission, had I not paid to get it fixed, could have caused a major accident. This problem does not occur all of a sudden as this was a factory assembly error.
