May 2019 received an additional notice from ford motor co. Customer satisfaction program notice #19n01, received saferty recall the federal safety agency 19v‑075/srn 19s07. Seems to me that once ford motor co decides to affect the safety recall, they should also check out this new problem as well while the vehicle is at the dealership. Ford knows this is going to be an issue, so instead of offering to extend warranty to 150,000 miles or until nov 30, 2019. They should automatically inform dealerships to inspect and perform corrective measures to maintain their "quality one" matrix as they profess.

While driving on 6/2/2019 at about 40 miles per hour I suddenly felt like I had been hit in the rear end by a truck. The transmission down shifting also caused the failure of the u-joint on the truck. When taking it to my local repair shop there was also metal found in the bottom of the transmission pan now resulting in a need to replace or repair the transmission at considerable expense $4000+. In looking up to see if there are any recalls I found what had happened. 'ford recall number: 19s07 'recall description: on your vehicle, an intermittent failure of the output speed sensor (oss) in the transmission may result in an unintended downshift to first gear. 'risk to safety: an unintended downshift into first gear can cause an abrupt wheel speed reduction, which could cause the rear tires to slide until the vehicle speed slows down. This condition could result in a loss of vehicle control, increasing the risk of a crash. Along with this recall was this field service action items ' 'fsa title: transmission molded leadframe extended coverage 'field service action number: 19n01 however I can not find anything out about getting the repairs that were caused by this to be covered.
The federal safety agency rcall #19v‑075/safety recall notice 19s07. Fmc issued recall notice march 2019.body of notice indicated software fix to be available 2nd quarter 2019, coming into 3rd quarter. So far no action from fmc, regarding fix. Have contacted my local ford dealership numerous times, they indicated fmc has not sent any software fix.
Vehicle keeps dow shifting and up shifting have called dealer numerous of times with no information of when it will be fixed and I have came close to being in an accident as well dealership will not give out a loaner vehicle either and I need this fixed now it a danger to me and other people on the road
Tl* the contact owns a 2013 ford f-150. While driving 70 MPH, the vehicle downshifted into first gear without warning and the speedometer was not functioning properly. The contact stated that the vehicle seized and the engine shut off. The contact was able to restart the vehicle, but it continued to downshift while driving to park on the side of the road. The vehicle was taken to laird noller ford topeka (located at 2245 sw topeka blvd, topeka, ks 66611) where it was diagnosed that the transmission needed to be repaired. The following day, the contact received a recall notification for the federal safety agency campaign number: 19v075000 (power train). The contact called the dealer and notified them of the letter. The vehicle was repaired for the recall, but the failure recurred on may 9, 2019. The vehicle was towed back to the dealer who stated that they needed to follow protocol to complete the manufacturer recall, including a new wiring harness and lead casting. The vehicle was not repaired again. The manufacturer was made aware of the failures. The failure mileage was 128,000.
I have file with you about this before and it has been a recall for this problem but the ford company has not taken care of this problem nor have they taken care of a second recall for another problem with this truck both of these problems together have almost cause 3 very near accidents for me the most recent I was pulling a trailer and entering and on ramp to interstate I-94 on entering as normal I tried to exhilarate to highway speed when all of a sudden all power to the drive train stopped and the truck went into a natural mode (like pushing the clutch in on a standard shift transmission) at that point I was in the drive lane right side but 2 semis one passing the other were barrowing down on me I had to cut sharply to the right and off the shoulder of the highway to keep from being hit buy one of the semi's the ford company stated they would have the parts and the soft wear to fix this problem by the 2nd quarter of 2019 it is now the second half and the problem continues to get worse it now clucks when shifting up from 3 to 4 and sometimes down shifting and when taken your foot off the gas pedal for a few seconds then then push on the gas pedal again the trans will clunk again when I test drove this truck before I bought it I told them there was something wrong with the drivetrain and they told me there was nothing wrong with it that I needed to learn how to drive a six speed transmission the thing about that and they don't know me before I retired I was the floor and operations manager for the community garage of battle creek mich. I have had this truck in to them 2 different times and 2 different dealerships plus I.ve taken it in 3 other times but after making and appointment and telling them I would need a loner which the warranty covers then when I get there no loner plus I would have to pay a $100 fee on the warranty for the thing they never fixed (19v‑075)
I have stopped driving my 2013 ford f150 and can't believe they have not been pulled of the road. They are unsafe to everyone around them. My vehicle has downshifted on 6 occasions ranging from 6th gear and 4th gear down to 1st gear. My vehicle locked up rear wheels until I was able to get down to 5mph. Had to pull off the road and turn off vehicle and it worked again. I am disappointed in ford and the federal safety agency for allowing this to happen. My ford f150 has sat in my driveway for over a month now. What does it going to take to have this fix?
As I am driving in motion on highway or street the truck will down shift by its self causing me to skid to a stop, as I try to accerlearate it will not upshift, for a minute or two. This has happened many times! Causing many near crash conditions.
My ford dealer updated the power train: automatic transmission control module as per safety recall (the federal safety agency #19v075000). My transmission still is shifting erratically, especially hard shifting from 5th to 4th. Dealer told me that the software update for this recall did not work as expected for the 2013 model f-150 and ford has not issued an new software update to resolve.
Ford has yet to fix my recall. I drive 100 miles everyday and have almost have had several wrecks due to the issue. Safety recall- 19s07
Relating to the ford 19s07 recall. The truck will shift into 1st gear while driving on the highway causing the rear tires to lock up and a sudden unexpected rapid deceleration and temporary loss of control of the vehicle. The recall was announced in february of 2019 and it is now may 31st of 2019 and no remedy has been provided for the 3.5l ecoboost f150's. This is a massive saftey hazard that could cause severe injury or death.
Receives a couple notices from ford/autonation stating to schedule my truck for repairs. I did so and then dealership tells me that there is no fix as of yet. So what happens now just wait for truck to shift into reverse or park by itself? Why even send me these notices if they cannot fix them and waste my time by scheduling when they don't have a software yet to fix it? Will I be notified again to get this fix? Am I supposed to call every day to see if the software is in? Do they provide me a loaner truck in the meantime until they get the software? What is a consumer supposed to do, just drive it until hopefully they get the software and or have a wreck.
Traveling highway at approx. 60 MPH when truck downshifted to lower gear causing rear wheels to jump until truck could be stopped. Pulled to side of road and shut vehicle off. After brief period, started truck and was able to drive awhile normally. Truck did the same thing again and I pulled to side of road and shut vehicle off again. Let stand for awhile, then started vehicle and was able to get home. Took the vehicle immediately to ford dealership and they replaced the "throttle body assembly as possible cause". My truck had just recently gone out of warranty period per dealership, and I had to pay for the repair. I have not had the problem since this fix (approximately 3 years ago) however I am taking it in for recall to update software specifically for failure of oss. My truck is a 2013 f150 4x4 crew cab with echo boost 3.5l engine.
After the last recall for the programming of the trans where it could downshift into first gear at any speed the trans shifts really hard into second gear from first gear I just thought it would have to relearn it's self from the last recap but it keeps happening and sometimes it's a pretty hard shift and I recently had the trans fully serviced so I know it's not a maintenance issue
My 2013 ford unexpectedly downshift into first gear while the vehicle was in motion. I was traveling 40-45 MPH. No accident or injuries. This also happened last yea, I was unaware of a recall or issue. I am worried about transmission damage, the current recall doesn't cover transmission service or inspection if you experiences this downshift. Until the recall software is resolved I will not drive my truck on the highway or high speeds as I'm worried it will happen again.
Tl* the contact owns a 2013 ford f-150. While driving approximately 45 MPH, the transmission downshifted into first gear on its own, the rear wheels seized, and there was a loss of power steering. The vehicle veered to the right into a ditch and then veered back onto the road towards oncoming traffic. There was no crash or damage. The vehicle was driven to the contact's residence. Poage ford (1110 us-61 bus, bowling green, mo 63334) was contacted by phone and the contact was informed that the parts were not available to perform the recall repair for the federal safety agency campaign number: 19v075000 (power train). The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The approximate failure mileage was 47,423. *as consumer stated after the downshift it seemed as if all electrical power also failed. Car was traded in.
I received my ford recall notice on the need to reprogram power train module on or about april 1st 2019. My first instance of my 2013 f150 stx supercab, going into sudden downshift mode and then limp mode (blue wrench signal) occurred around april 12, 2019. I was driving at about 30 miles an hour on a city street when my truck when the truck downshifted by itself and the blue wrench light appeared. My truck went into limp mode and I was unable to drive. After pulling over to the side of the street, I turned off my truck, waited a few minutes and then the issue resolved itself. I took my vehicle into the ford dealership on april 18, 2019 where recall 19s07 6r80 (reprogram power train module) work was completed. On may 17, 2019, while driving about 30 miles an hour on a city street (without notice or cause) my truck again went into downshift mode, limp mode and the blue wrench light came on. Same as the first instance, I pulled over to the side of the street, turned off my truck, waited a few minutes and when I turned on the truck again the issue was resolved. It was clear that this issue was electrical and no mechanical and the original recall work completed by the dealership did not resolve the issue. On 05/19/2019, I again took my truck to the ford dealership where this time the module lead frame was replaced after code p0722 was identified. I want the record to reflect that the first recall, reprogramming of the power train module did not work, and left me at risk of a second downshifting incident occurring. My truck had a second incident and after returning to the dealership a second time the leadframe was replaced. I also want to note that the dealership's data that the original recall work was completed on 04/26/2019 is inaccurate. The original recall work was performed by the dealership on 04/18/2019.
Tl* the contact owns a 2013 ford f-150. While driving 50 MPH, the vehicle downshifted on its own. In addition, the wheels seized and caused the contact to lose control of the vehicle. The contact received notification of the federal safety agency campaign number: 19v075000 (power train). The contact stated that grapevine ford (located at 801 e, tx-114, grapevine, tx 76051, (817) 756-6642) exceeded a reasonable amount of time for the recall repair. The manufacturer was notified and stated that the part was not available for the repair. The failure mileage was 64,950. Parts distribution disconnect.
When driving the vehicle it downshifts into first gear causing the vehicle to go into "limp mode." the first time this happened we had it towed and then discovered there had been a recall issued. Since then we have had multiple breakdowns of varying degrees. The last down shift almost caused an accident as the back tires completely locked up while driving approximately 45 miles per hour. An independent mechanic has declared the truck unsafe to drive, but our local ford dealership has stated they can not fix it yet and that the drivability of the vehicle is not their problem.
Vehicle shifted into 1st gear while I was going 60mph. Recall was issued customer satisfaction program 19n01 and dealership said there is a hold on fixing the 2013. I asked if I paid for repair out of pocket if they would fix it and was told that no that can't until hold is lifted sometime in 2nd quarter. I have three kids that are with me a lot and I'm concerned about this happening on the highway with a semi behind me. Was I given the correct info on a hold for this repair?
I have open recall with no remedy available. One dealer did repair when there is no remedy available!!! Another dealership confirmed about no remedy and no way to fix it. Now ford giving me hard time with buyback because if that 'repair' by their dealership. I attach info

The contact stated that gervais ford (located at 5 littleton rd, ayer, ma 01432, (978) 772-6600) exceeded a reasonable amount of time for the recall repair.

The transmission will get stuck in 3rd and 5th. Sometimes, it will go to first at highway speeds. Taken to dealer twice for there software patch. Both times it didn't work. I am fearful of driving my truck. I don't want to cause an accident. I took it in today. Ford sent an email last week to service dept. That update does not work on some 2013 trucks... No kidding! Waiting for an update to come through ford!!! Ford should provide.loaners b/c this car is unsafe.
Per recall notice 19s07, previously 19n01, transmission may downshift to first gear while moving at highway speed. I have had 3 instances of problems with and today 05/15/19 truck downshifted to first gear and locked up rear wheels. If another vehicle had been following it would have caused a serious crash with possible injuries. Ford stated they did not currently have a fix although problem has existed with ford 2013 f150 ecoboost 3.5 engine vehicles for serveral months. I was traveling on highway at approximately 50 MPH. This is a ford transmission problem that has been ongoing for several months with recall notices that were sent out by ford and they still have no fix.
Truck never had a problem until I took it in for a oil change and to fix a recall problem. After recall fix the next week several times while driving on freeway at 60+MPH the car suddenly downshifts in to a low gear and car almost co.es to a dead stop on the freeway. I pulled over and started the truck again and car worked fi e for a trip. Then the next trip on the freeway the car did it again, this time I noticed a wrench pop up on the display and my speedometer moving up and down. Eventually the speedometer went straight to zero, but still allowing me to drive after placing truck in (fake standard mode. After arriving home I parked car. Turned off engine, restarted and speedometer worked again. Call local ford dealership and drove car to shop. After having the car for 3 days they're telling me nothing they did on a software update would cause the problem. Yet I never had it happen before and the recall was for the exact problem I'm having. Also it looks like there was a recall on previous years that replaced more than just software. This is a serious issue. I don't believe the claims of only causing 5 accidents with no injuries. This has probably been the cause of 1000s of accidents and also deaths. But people probably are not realizing what's actually happening when a accident acurrs. After research it looks 5o be possible lead frame or speed sensor. Idk but my family will park this truck and never drive again until fixed again the recall fix caused the problem, differently did not fix. 1.5 million f150 owners are on the road. I will never be behind a f150 again in case the have the same problem I did.

While in drive my truck will downshift from 3rd gear to first without warning and the speedometer will show zero while im still rolling around 20-30mph. I have to pull over and turn off my truck in order to reset my truck. God forbid I hope this doesn't even happen when im on the highway with my family, ford will have 5 lives depending on their electronics not glitching out. While this happens there is no codes showing up.
I recieved a recall letter for recall number 19s07 from ford in march 2019. I have since contacted ford numerous times to fix this very dangerous condition. They have continued to say they can not help me. At least once a week my truck will down shift into first gear without warning. I have almost caused an accident when this occurs at highway speed. This is a very dangerous condition and ford needs to find a fix for this immediately before someone gets seriously hurt. 2013 ford f-50 xlt with 3.5 engine
Downshifts into 1st... Still...after the recall appointment. Reset, but continues and we have only had the truck a short time. It has almost caused a few wrecks and one with a trailer pulling machinery. We bought this truck to have a newer truck to haul our horses as well, and cannot do that. This needs to be taken care of! We have all ford f 150's in our family and hate to have to change to something else if this cannot be resolved. A new transmission/??? Is it going to take a death to fix what is wrong??? Truck is always in motion and at various times when this happens. No warning, can be fine for days then happens all of a sudden. Street, highway, doesn't matter. And now it's not wanting to come back down after shifting back up from 1st. Not sure what to do now. Can't sell in good conscious to someone, so it sits. Beautiful truck, just bad tranny. Oh, and also, the truck thinks the rear door is open and it's not, which keeps us from being able to lock it as well as the lights remain on for a bit after shutting off (using the battery). Not sure if this has a recall or not.
