- Toledo, OH, USA

Vehicle is exhibiting issues consistent with the recalled lead frame part on previous year models, despite my 2016 having the same transmission as they do. Truck will randomly downshift into first at slower speeds causing engine to rev very high and not want to shift into next gear. Often times it will get -??stuck-?? in 3rd gear even when coming to a complete stop and leaving a stop in 3rd still. On one occasion the truck shuddered and began to decelerate even as the accelerator was being pressed on the highway causing a significant safety issue, I had to put in neutral and restart the truck while still driving to regain forward mobility of the vehicle. When these things occur typically a little gear wrench symbol will appear on the dash and on one occasion has raised a check engine light with code P0720.

I believe the recent recall for 2014 F-150 transmission issue are not limited to 2014. On Friday [XXX], I was traveling in my 2016 F-150 in Kingston On, Canada, when my truck violently downshifted. I was driving at approx 90kph when this happened. I was towing a lightweight utility trailer at the time the rear wheel of the truck fishtailed slightly and the rpm when to around 5000-6000rpm, I do not know what gear the truck downshifted too. I ordered and replaced the transmission Conductor (Leadframe) myself. Part: Dorman 926-149. See attached photo of engine codes recorded after the incident.

- Temple, TX, USA

My truck is downshifting to 1st gear while driving. If I happen to be in cruise control the truck will just coast and the dash display will flicker, then go back to 6th gear. If I give it gas, then it will almost come to an abrupt stop or if I am out of cruise, it will come rev up and almost come to a stop. I am afraid to drive it because it may cause me to get rear ended. This has happened several times usually in the same section of the road but not limited to it.
