Evidently as you all are probably aware, the 2011 F-150 6R80 transmission was recalled on a lot of trucks. The speed sensor or trans range sensor or lead frame is was/bad so a satisfaction program was initially made 'one free lead frame' offered for under 10 years or 150K miles. Now there is no recall on my truck but a. it's 2011 B. it was produced from the Kansas plant, one of two plants which initiated the recall. C. the infamous P0705 code is reading. Pretty much what I'm getting at is my head ache of a truck deserves a recall evaluation, at the very least a new lead frame please contact me asap. I think my truck slipped through the cracks and it needs fixing! by the way this causes my truck to drop to low gears(innapropriate gears) at high speeds and causes it to not work at all at times!!!

While driving my 2011 F150 I got of I99 at the tyrone exit. While slowing to a stop at about 35 mph the truck shifted from 5thgear to 1st which cause the wheels to squawk and slide almost causing me to lose control, I pulled over in the bk parking lot shut it off an restarted once I put it in gear to drive it showed I was in 5th gear so I shut it off again waited a few minutes S td started it again and this time it was in 3rd so I repeated. The next time it was in first so I drove home the back roads to be safe as I got up to speed it started to act up again the speedometer show I was going 0mph but I was going 25mph again the truck slammed in an out of gear I took it to my local Ford deal they diagnosed it as a lead frame hope this fixes the problem as I'm scared to drive my truck. I do have videos of when its acting up but I cant figure out how to upload them.

Vehicle downshifts while driving abruptly and without cause. This has occurred at highway and city speeds as well as with and without a trailer in tow. The front end still is all over the road, following tire replacement, brake replacement and alignment.

Truck will be driving at speeds of 50 mph or higher, and the speedometer will wave back and forth and drop to 0. transmission tries to compensate and downshifts drastically causing a very hard shift and slow down in traffic. Then the speedometer will go back to normal speed. Very easily could be rear-ended in a heavy traffic situation. Have taken to two different Ford dealers over the last month who say the same thing, that it should receive a molded leadframe replacement, but my VIN is not listed in the recall (16N02). My VIN matches the same year, make, model, manufacturing plant, and manufacturing dates with the recall. I understand that there may be different parts, but it is my firm belief that some vehicles were left out of the recall. Even when Ford employees are saying the fix is the same as those issued in the recall. Very big safety issue, and to charge someone $1,800 when it should be replaced for free, is beyond sad.

Car would be driving normal, and speedometer would drop off, dropping to 0 mph. Upon which time, the transmission would try and compensate, and downshift hard to match the speed. Speedometer would then go back up to normal speed and transmission would shift back. Matches identical issues with 16N02, but my VIN (despite being the same year, make, model, and manufactured during the same time frame and at the same plant as the others) did not show this as a recall.
