There is a looming problem among owners of the well-loved Ford F-150<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

At least one owner reported experiencing serious problems with the shifting gears of the vehicle and now he intends to sue the company.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In particular, the problem involves the 10-speed automatic transmission in the latest generation of the Ford F-150.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In a lawsuit filed by an owner of a 2018 F-150 SuperCab, the complainant claims the truck’s occupants are at risk for possible whiplash due to hard and erratic transmission shifts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"
Allegedly, “all F-150 trucks with 10-speed transmissions made the same noise” and the slipping and jerking, according to technicians, were “normal.”<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

The owner says he bought the truck in September 2018 with just 10 miles on the odometer. When it reached 6,000 miles, the truck started “making a loud clanking noise from the 10-speed transmission, causing rough shifting and shift times much too long.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The suit alleges that the automatic transmission<\/a> caused the truck to decelerate while driving, creating additional safety issues for the occupants. Moreover, the owner claimed bringing the truck to a Ford dealership was not helpful despite it still being under warranty.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Technicians reportedly told the owner there was no fix for the F-150’s transmission problem “because all F-150 trucks with 10-speed transmissions made the same noise” and that the slipping and jerking were “normal” for the transmission referred to as 10R80.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The lawsuit also refers to a 2019 recall issued by the automaker covering 1.5 million 2011-2013 Ford F-150s equipped with a 6-speed automatic transmission. The recall was prompted by reports of the affected trucks suddenly downshifting into first gear, leading to potential whiplash to passengers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The unnamed plaintiff is demanding Ford to pay damages to all affected customers and issue a recall.<\/p>\n<\/body><\/html>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
