Tl* the contact owns a 2015 ford f-250. While the brake pedal was depressed, the vehicle accelerated without warning. The contact managed to keep his foot on the brake pedal and place the vehicle in park. When the vehicle was turned off and restarted, it resumed normal operation. The vehicle was taken to bill utter ford (4901 s interstate 35 e, denton, tx 76210, (940) 321-7400) where it was diagnosed that the power train needed a software update. The vehicle was repaired; however, the failure recurred multiple times. The contact referenced the federal safety agency campaign number: 14v204000 (power train). The manufacturer was made awre of the failure and provided a case number. The failure mileage was approximately 47,800.
My truck only has 79100.3 miles on it its a 6.2 l gas a/t the problem that I have is first when the trans is warm it has a one to two second delay shifting into reverse then in drive it also has a delay shifting from third to fourth gear about a second delay then shifting from fifth to six gear it has a longer delay about two second are more delay and the RPM rise up to about three thousand before shifting with a hard shift almost like it goes into neutral . This all happens no matter what street your on going straight are turning .
Exhaust cleaning cycle causes extremely rough running conditions. Severe engine knocking seems as though a piston will fly through the hood soon. Significant loss of power at any speed during this time. Brand new truck purchased from dealership and this has happened from purchase point all the way through 27500 miles so far. In reading I have found thousands of others that experienced the exact same issue.
During the epa mandated exhaust regeneration cycle the vehicle begins to shudder uncontrollably along with power loss. This behavior began at around 5,500 miles and now does it at least every other exhaust regeneration. It happens on multiple lane country roads and city roads at around 50 to 60 miles per hour. It seems more specific to the regeneration cycle than any other driving condition or input. Temperature is between 40 and 70 degrees outside so far. Each time it happens is worse than the last. The experience is scary and could be very dangerous. I no longer let my wife drive this vehicle for fear that it may shudder her off the highway.
Re: 2015 f250 sold to [xxx] VIN #[xxx] a few months after purchasing a new 2015 f250 diesel, I began to experience something wrong. When traveling at a constant speed, the engine began to knock loudly and the entire truck began to vibrate. After taking my foot off the gas pedal and coasting for a short period (there is no power to accelerate during this time), the truck seemed to function normal again. There were no warning lights or messages on the dash. The problem is getting worse and more frequent; lasting longer and loss of ability to accelerate interrupts flow of traffic behind me. I held up traffic going up ms river bridge, and this past incident lasted for a 15 mile stretch. It is extremely unsafe.......

Exhaust regeneration causes engine shake and loss of power. The last incident occurred when towing uphill and a semi almost took out the back of my trailer. Ford indicates this is normal, however, it did not do this when new. It occurred after approximately 6,000 miles and continues to happen. The dealer indicated they have not seen this before, so I don't believe "normal" applies here. If this is "normal," then ford engineers need to go back to school.
Exhaust region caused extreme rough running engine and loss of power when towing up hill and passing a semi. This caused the semi to almost hit the back of my trailer. This continues to occur with every exhaust regeneration on the 6.7 powerstroke diesel.
Tl* the contact owns a 2015 ford f-250. The contact stated that the gears failed to upshift and downshift and the rpms and transmission were not properly functioning each time the failure recurred. The vehicle also hesitated to pick up speed each time the failure occurred. The vehicle was taken to the dealer twice and they were not able to replicate the failure. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 8,000. The VIN was not available.
