The speedometer dropped to zero while traveling 50 mph and the truck downshifted to 1st gear causing the tires to squeal, fishtail, and the rpm's redlined.i was almost rear ended. this has happened several times in the past couple weeks.

I placed the vehicle in park. i left the vehicle running got out walked up to the gate to open it and the vehicle started moving on its own. this happened twice. the first time my wife was in the front seat and was able to stop the truck. the second time the truck pinned me between the truck and fence post. a friend was able to jump into the truck and get it turned off. the vehicle was stationary on flat ground sitting in open land not on a road.

When driving down the road transmission will down shift from 6th gear to first gear it did it on the interstate at 70 miles an hour. did it when it was raining. was the second time it did it. take it to the ford dealership they said they couldn't do anything unless it was showing a code. did some research there is a recall on ford f150.for 09-13 but mine has the same transmission as the 2013. more year's should be added to the recall. thank you

2014 f150 w/~55,000 miles- (1) 7/30/19- carrying light load in bed (200 lbs+/-) & 2 people including driver, on major highway during rush hour accelerating up hill, had driven 15 minutes without issues. vehicle suddenly lost all power and tachometer red lined. did not notice if any warning lights on as was trying desperately not to be dead due to 18 wheeler right behind me. just as suddenly resolved after about 10 seconds. (2) 7/6/19- truck in park with emergency brake engaged, facing uphill on boat ramp with lightweight boat trailer in tow & in "tow/haul mode". (no boat, only driver & 200-300 lbs load in bed) disengaged emergency brake & vehicle rolled backward while still in park. braked. put in drive & vehicle rolled backward before finally engaging & able to accellerate up ramp. (3) frequently, since truck brand new, hear a "thunk" when shifting from park to drive (on flat surface) & especially loud, every time i shift from park to reverse (also on flat surface) & always doing either if on a hill. took to dealer when still under warrantee who says this is normal. i live in a very flat ...

I am experiencing symptoms like those outlined in the recall affecting 2011-2013 f-150 trucks (among other vehicles) with the 6r80 transmission. it shifts erratically and abruptly, and today, i had it downshift from 6th to 1st on the highway as i was changing lanes. thankfully the tires didn't lock up. the engine revved freely all the way to redline when this occured, given the history of these documented and reported issues, i'm unsure if the second wave of recalls from earlier this year managed to include all of the affected vehicles.

Tl* the contact owns a 2014 ford f-150. while driving approximately 45 mph, the vehicle downshifted into first gear without warning. the contact stated that the ignition was cycled off and on and the vehicle operated as intended for approximately 20 miles of driving before the failure recurred. the contact used an odb code reader to perform a diagnostic test on the vehicle, which indicated a p0722-output speed sensor failure. the vehicle was not repaired. nick mayer ford (located at 6200 mayfield rd, mayfield heights, oh 44124, (440) 449-1000) was contacted by phone and notified of the failure. the manufacturer was informed of the failure. the approximate failure mileage was 131,000. piir= y.

Periodically speedometer starts moving erratically at constant speed. as a result of this the engine starts shifting gears rapidly. this week while driving 60mph on the highway, the engine shifted abruptly from 6th to 1st gear causing a very dangerous situation.

Tl* the contact owns a 2014 ford f-150. while driving approximately 40-50 mph, the vehicle vibrated uncontrollably. the vehicle was taken to crown ford (located at 256 swain st, fayetteville, nc 28303, (910) 920-9614) where it was diagnosed that the driveshaft needed to be replaced, and the brake calipers, rear brake drums, front brake pads, and front brake rotors needed to be resurfaced. the vehicle was repaired; however, the failures were still evident. the manufacturer was not notified of the failures. the approximate failure mileage was 158,000.

This vehicle has shut down during operation on several different occasions. the first, was a minor repair. the second, caused over $11,000 in damages, and now it has happened again. each time it occurs, the loss of power causes a decrease in the ability to steer and all systems shut down. with our children in the vehicle, we have been in fear for their lives as we have had to quickly steer the vehicle out of the lane of traffic and hope that we are able to come to a complete stop.

Transmission down shifts while moving, from 6th gear down to 1st, all gauges go to zero but truck does not power off. can accelerate but does not pick up speed. similar symptoms for the 2011-2013 f150 recall out now.
