2011 Ford F-150 transmission complaints
Page 29 of 29: complaints 821 to 830 of 830, newest first, as owners wrote them.
Vehicle "shudders" or "bucks" slightly under light acceleration from 55 MPH on up. For a $45,000 vehicle and no fix yet this is totally unacceptable.
Transmission slams between gears and also does it while coming to a rolling stop. At times if feels like if you got hit from behind causing you to slam your head and body on the seat. It will do it at slow speeds and high speeds, but more noticeable while driving in and out of traffic slower speeds. At times it also feels like there is slippage when shifting gears.
Was told I would have to bring my truck to the dealer twice to have this recall done . One time for them to look at it and order parts . And the 2nd time for them to put the part on . They should have the parts in stock to fix recalls . My time is money . Recall 11c21 ford . Or the federal safety agency recall 11v‑582.
Multiple incidents of hesitation in first and second gear shifts causing stalling in the middle of intersections. No accidents occurred. I was told by ford " there is a factory defect in the manufacture of the torque converter seal."

Transmission fluid pours out of overflow when under load (pulling a trailer). This fluid dumps on exhaust system and starts a fire. This accrued at 2,500 miles on june 25, 2011. Truck is still at dealer, no resolution.
Transmission slams between gears and the drive train "acts" like it is sticking in four wheel drive when at slow speeds going around corners and starting out when you turn the steering wheel. It has become progressively worse and I am concerned that it will break or even worse when out of warranty then break.
