On [XXX] while attempting to take a trip to WV we were traveling on [XXX] nearing Waynesboro, VA. While driving up the mountain on [XXX] near the Rockfish Gap overlook I noticed our F-150 seemed to mis-shift or slip. As we-??d experienced issues during a previous trip that required the transmission to be serviced under warranty I switched the display to the transmission temperature near 245 degrees. I attempted to put the truck in eco mode and slowed below the speed limit to the top of the mountain. While going down the west side of the mountain I left the truck in cruise. Past the [XXX] exit I noticed smoke which began to increase. I then checked the temperature again which reported 267 degrees. The wrench warning light came on indicating reduced power. I also received the notification on the Fordpass Application. The truck quickly slowed down and would not accelerate forcing me to hastily move to the shoulder in heavy traffic. We pulled over at stopped right in front of mile marker [XXX]. A large amount of transmission fluid observed pouring out from above the bell housing onto the exhaust. It appeared and smelled like it was possible to catch on fire so I did not park over grass, remaining on the concrete shoulder. After a dealer tech simply reset the computer and stated it was fine we drove the truck home, but did not feel safe or sure that it would make the trip. The transmission temperature remained below 220 the trip home but did have delayed shifts. The next day I had three incidents after exiting the interstate of a failure to find a gear for a moment as I attempted to take a turn. Our dealer that we trust has already completed two TSB actions related to the transmission. The other dealer cleared the computer and did nothing to repair the issue. They also attempted to charge me for a diagnostic fee, even though it-??s under warranty and clearly had issues to include gear ratios being wrong and ECM/PCM and BCM communication failures.

The transmission slips when giving it gas. I lose power when I excelerate Sometimes. Sometimes the truck excelerates when I'm not giving It throttle. Transmission jumps all over. The transmission seems to be very rough shifting back and forth

- Paso Robles, CA, USA

When the truck is trying to change gears, there would be a long hesitation before it can move up to the next gear while accelerating. The truck would sometimes lose power and speed while trying to find the gear. It would sometimes jump from gear 1 all the way gear 10 and then randomly bounce between the other gears before actually settling. At the moment it does find the right gear, the truck would launch forward violently. I took it to a ford dealership to be diagnosed, where I was told a new transmission is needed. I reached out to the manufacture regarding the issue and was told that there is no assistance for the issue. The quoted cost for the new transmission is $8400. I did some research and found that a lot of recent model Ford trucks a having the same problem with the transmission. Most report I read encountered the problem before 100000 miles. The truck is currently at the Ford dealer waiting to repaired. I find this is unfair to consumers to deal with an issue of this expense on what I consider to be a new truck.

- Douglasville , GA, USA

My 2020 F150 transmission is having serious issues related to accelerating and decelerating, and rough shifting (causing jerking forward and backwards) which are now a major safety concern. The transmission gets stuck in gear, sometimes shifts from 4th to 1st gear, gets stuck in 7th gear, or will not shift out of 1st gear. Earlier this week with my wife driving the vehicle (with my children in it), it would not accelerate due to this issue and getting on the highway, she had to quickly pull over narrowly being missed by a cargo truck since the vehicle would not accelerate. I took over driving the vehicle, and I've observed the gear changing issues noted above and also had to pull off the road to avoid stalling the vehicle in the middle of a busy road. I've addressed these issues with Ford corporate, and their official position is that I have to have the issues diagnosed with a Ford dealer, which is telling me diagnosis is 8-12 weeks out. I don't know what else to do, but I am very concerned about the safety issues this is presenting

- Gray, GA, USA

-10R80 Transmission began malfunctioning at 86,000 miles. Per Ford dealer, the shift strategy was cleared which did not resolve issue. Internal transmission failure was suspected and transmission was replaced. -From a complete stop, the truck would not want to shift from 1st to 2nd gear unless driver let off the gas causing unnecessary risk. From there, truck would shift extremely hard while under acceleration. Additionally, there were instances where truck would not downshift while slowing down to a stoplight. Truck remained in 7th gear at the green light and could only be moved by switching truck to manual shift. -Issue was verified by an independent shop along with a local Ford dealer. -Unsure if the component has been inspected by manufacturer as it was replaced by them. -No engine lights, codes, or other symptoms.

- Blandinsville, IL, USA

Started having rough shifting from 1st to second at 99k miles. Quickly progressed to 3-4-5 gears shifts. Finally couldn-??t drive the truck in auto because it was having trouble finding/shifting into gears up to 60mph. I had two instances when driving in 8th gear around 55mph and the transmission randomly shifted to second. Caused the vehicle to lurch violently and over-rev the engine. I had several other instances when traveling above 60mph in 10th gear and the gear indicator flashed between 10th and first gear. Thankfully it didn-??t actually downshift. Tried taking it to a dealership near me but they were backed up two months on transmission work. I wound up taking it to a local shop and they rebuilt the transmission. They found the typical c-d-f drum bushing failure that is common in the 10r80 transmissions.

- Newfields, NH, USA

At about 32k miles the transmission quit working properly. It would go into neutral randomly and then slam back in gear. Took it to Ford and they did a warranty TSB repair. Then at 54k it started doing it again almost causing me to be in a collision with on coming traffic. Once again Ford performed a warranty TSB repair. Just got it back and it still doesn't work properly.

My 2020 Ford F-150 truck was recently serviced with PepBoys when my ABS light came on and another message on the dash that said my brake system has a malfunction along with messages in my FordPass app. It was evening when this happened I immediately took it to PepBoys early the next morning. They took a look at it they thought it was a sensor for the brake area it was not taking so they tried again and it once again still said the same problem. They took a deeper look and checked all tires and came across the rear left side tire upon removing it they were shocked to see that the axel was riding only on the caliber, the lock that is supposed to be on the axel was there but just dangling it wasn-??t properly on where it should have been. They let me know it-??s something rare they don-??t come across it was their first time and definitely could have been a safety issue and could have put my family and myself and other pedestrians around if my axel would have fallen off on the highway or anywhere. I was very concerned and do not feel my truck was put together properly. It-??s only a 2020 and it-??s my family vehicle it does not get driven heavy at all just for pleasure my axel should not be holding on by a string. People should feel confident in driving their vehicles. I have only had this truck for a year and a half it was bought at Shamaley Ford. I did report this incident to them but they don-??t seem to care. I hope this will help anyone else having issues as I believe it could have been a major safely issue.
