MY 2021 F-150 LIMITED HAS TRANSMISSION ISSUES!?!?!

[@cwqrpportable]

If it's any consolation, my 2018 XLT F150, 3.5 ecoboost with the 10 speed had similar issues in the first month of ownership. A quick trip into the dealership and some monkying around with the software and it has operated smooth as silk now for 3 years and 65,000 kms. I pull a 5000 lb RV long distances and it has been a dream transmission. Good luck with yours man.... I'm loving my truck. Don't let anybody tell you that other brands never have issues........... yes even Toytota.

[@ramolifee]

Thank you! This is very assuring for me, it’s been good since so far for me too

[@XTraFull]

Appreciate the information. I bought a 2021 XLT Sport in March of 2021. Initially loved it. I bought it 3 hours from home, so the interstate ride home was a dream. However, as days went on, I started noticing little things I didn’t like on everyday roads, shifting being one of those complaints. I’m not rich, so I don’t get to buy new often, and I know a first year model always has problems, but for a $57k sticker (paid $46k), I expected some of the basic problems to go away. (1) Shifting is very annoying and “clunky.” Not clunking sounds, but like the transmission doesn’t know where to go. And it’s very pronounced on hilly roads and at lower gears. To the point I worry about a shortened transmission lifespan. On hills, it’s definitely something I can’t just ignore. Why does quality have to go backwards? My 1984 F-150 shifted smoother. And the dealership says, “I didn’t feel anything that you don’t get from those 10-speeds. Keep an eye on it because you have plenty of warranty.” I only have 4,000 miles on this. (2) Sliding rear glass leaks at car washes. I know, I know, don’t spray it directly, but is that really the answer for a $57k truck? Don’t use automatic car washes? And worse yet, they replaced the complete back glass once and the new one does the same thing. (3) Interior noise, I believe coming from the passenger door. I believe where the armrest meets the door panel, it’s such a tight fit between two different materials that it constantly rubs. So, since I can’t make it go away, I turn the radio up louder. (4) Apple CarPlay has to cycle through any music app before it stays running. Regardless the app (I use Amazon Music), the music starts and runs for a bit before shutting the music off and I have to manually restart the music app. Not always the same amount of time before it does this, either, so it’s hard to troubleshoot. (5) Front end clunking. I’ve recently noticed an audible “clunk” when turning onto or off of any incline, such as a parking lot entrance/exit. Nothing crazy as far as the incline, but the clunk is unnerving. I’m sure there are more things to come, but if I could find something affordable to trade into, I’d drop this truck back into the market today. The dealership I purchased from is nearly 3 hours away and they know this, so they don’t reply to my emails. My local dealership just says, “well, that’s just how these things do…” Ford trucks used to be the standard. I could never afford a new Ford, so I’ve always wanted a new F-150 at some point in my life. I researched for over a year before I bought this and obviously should’ve researched or waited longer. Some days I feel like I’m just overreacting. Then, I think about the money and the fact that I bought this truck so I could enjoy driving again. There isn’t much else to do during a pandemic. I end up cussing this thing every time I take it out now. Probably not the epitome of enjoyable driving. Reckon they’d settle with me if I develop depression or end up gaining all my weight back?

[@ramolifee]

Man sorry to hear this. I’d consider looking into your states lemon laws or speaking to an attorney I’ve seen the manufacture buy back vehicles from too many issues.

[@markmarkyyy5632]

So sorry to hear your story. I bought my very first brand new Ford F150 (Roush Nitemare 2019) and live in fear and regret every day. I can't get anywhere NEAR the 60K I paid for this rip-off from Ford. Found out after the fact that these Roush's are valued ONLY at the base model that they were built up from. In other words my XL is worth only 28K-35K the KBB of ANY XL. They totally 100% disregard the Roush supercharger and every other add on that Roush did in conjunction with Ford! I'm consigning this over to used car dealer on Saturday. Once again; my sincere condolences to you!

Same problem in my 2020 stx 4x4. Started at 20k miles after stop and go on the highway. Babied it for a couple thousand miles and almost went away but returns after every road trip. Took to dealer in fear of tearing up drivetrain and kinda knew what it was. Small town dealer confirmed but didn’t have a tech on staff that day to get into computer. Unfortunately I am waiting for an appointment at another dealer. Thanks for the vid, at least we know there is a simple fix.

[@jukeboxsteveinindy]

I have a 2020 Ranger, love the truck but the same transmission doing the same thing AGAIN. Took it in they reflashed it and it worked great for awhile and now it's back to doing the same thing. I'm no engineer or mechanic but I bet if they got rid of the "adaptive" learning and skipping gears these transmissions would behave much nicer. It's interesting when I put it in tow/haul without towing anything it works great, shifts smooth and no gear hunting. Put it back in normal drive mode and it acts up. Since it is still in factory warranty I take it to the dealership where I bought it at for oil changes and every time I go in I make sure they enter on the service ticket that I complained about the transmission. Might not get me anywhere but if it does blow up it's on file that I complained about it every visit. The 2018 F150 that I traded had much worse transmission issues but it was a lease so I wasn't as concerned about it lasting.

[@big10hunter42]

My 2020 has been in the shop 7 times and had the transmission replaced with a brand new one and it is having issues again. Would be a great truck if it didn’t have a junk transmission. I want to get rid of the truck and get something else.

[@Rskitalll]

Had a 2018 f150 with cam phaser issues and a really bad shudder. It felt like I was driving on the rutted shoulder, it would shake my teeth. Bought a new F350 diesel and it is a beast. I am extremely happy with the truck

[@ramolifee]

Nice! Thankfully the transmission has been good since they did this, hoping it stays that way

[@ghanvass]

Same issue with my 2021 Limited Powerboost. Never happened on my 2019 Platinum Ecoboost so I figured it was due to the hybrid system (transmission transferring power from electric to gas engine). Guess I need to take mine in too.

[@ramolifee]

Definitely take it in mine has been great since

[@bleednate]

Mine has a 8-10 second delay from 2nd to 3rd gear. My workaround is to place the transmission in Manual as soon as I feel the power delay, once I get back to speed with other traffic, or out of a safety problem situation, I put it back in Auto and it's good to go. This happens about once a day when driving it, sometimes 2-3 times a day when driving it. I will definitely be taking this to the same or a different dealer soon.

[@mightyangelopenbook8555]

I have been having hard shifting in 2nd and 3rd, I am being told to have the dealer turn off adaptive learning.

You’re right about these 10 speed transmissions having a bad rep. My 2018 is at the dealership currently getting checked (2nd time for same reason and still under warranty). The gear gets stuck in 7th at random at a stop sign or traffic light…If Ford is unable to resolve this issue and it does it again, I am considering to reach out to a Lemon Law contact. Sorry to hear about your truck man.

[@ramolifee]

Yikes sorry to hear about your truck as well! Hope they get it sorted or if not definitely pursue the attorney. Thank you and good-luck as well

[@wardski11]

I have the same issue with my 2018 5.0. Already had it in the dealership once, told me they did a TSB bulletin update but I don’t think they did it correctly because it shifts terribly. Nowhere near the smoothness of my 2019 Camaro with supposedly the “same transmission”.

[@alejandini3133]

Update: I got my truck into the dealership for the second time. Ford this time acknowledged and confirmed that my truck’s 10 speed was broken. Turns out that a drum inside needed a replacement…Ford replaced it and as of today my truck has been running great. They also reimbursed my rental fees (powertrain warranty) since they have no loaners (chip shortage/vehicles).

[@alejandini3133]

@@wardski11 if it continues to shift terribly, see if you can find a video on KZbin that duplicates the behavior of your truck. I found one vid of a Raptor owner who experienced the same exact behavior as my truck (stuck in 7th gear at 0 mph). I sent the video link to the Ford rep (for my second visit) so they can have a visual reference of the problem. They were unable to duplicate the problem in my truck at the time but the video gave them the visual reference (Ford rep said it helped).

Ford does not know what the HELL they are doing. I've owned 6 in my lifetime and currently own a 2019 F150 Roush Nitemare. AC went out at 3200 mi. They refused to give me an extended warranty (although they offered me one on the day I bought it). They said that ALL high performance Fords including the Shelby and Saleen are exempt from having extended warranties! Ridiculous! I only have 4800 mi. on this truck but I am consigning it to a used car dealer while it still has 25 months left on the original warranty (bought it 9/2020). The older F150's were perfectly fine but the new ones are 100% trash. Not a hater, just speaking the truth!

[@romainecox479]

Is your it still shifting smoothly, I brought my 2k21 lariat in to the dealer here is BC CA and I just think they don't care about the issues their customer brought up. I understand the smart transmission jazz but as I said to the transmission tech, I drive standard and automatic and if I lift my foot off the clutch too quick that jump/jilt is expected, but this is an automatic transmission, it shouldn't feel like that, he ignored the whole thing playing off as if I was talking something stupid. Not ranting just happy I get to see this video and I think I'm gonna have bring this up with ford Motors directly. It's the same issue upshift from 1 to 3 is causing this very unbearable jilt/jump. The dealer say it's normal I don't think so and this video confirm it, thanks.

I just complained about the hard shift at times, I was told at the dealer that it’s a 10 speed and designed to be that way? It shifts down depending on how fast I’m going and how quickly I want to stop. It can shift from 10th to 6th or 8th gear to 3rd. When it drops down a few gears that’s when it clucks or shifts hard into a lower gear! Just told yesterday that it’s designed that way, I even spoke to there Transmission guy ( was going to say tranny guy) and he said exactly the same thing. It’s better lately and never happened when I’m towing, but it’s concerning, 2021 with 42,000klm on it. Love the truck, real quiet ride 3.5 has serious power as well.

I have a 2021 5.0L with 28k miles and have the same rough shift but it got better once the new update got pushed out over the air…

[@vgaomar]

I’m dealing with the same issues, F150 2020 , only 10, 000 miles . How many days/weeks they kept your truck until you got it back?

[@ramolifee]

It was actually only a few hours, I had it back the same day

[@josephbrizuela6220]

Hi there I think I’m having the some issue with my 2022 f150 lariat just got only 500miles I might also taking it to the dealership for this issue first and second gear

[@ramolifee]

Yes take it and have them reset the transmission software thankfully mine has been good since and they did it very quickly

[@jmwlife2k]

Mmm now you make me want to take mine in. But I think mine was doing it when it was super new and has stopped. But I only have 1600 miles on it. I’m going to pay close attention to it again now

[@ramolifee]

Definitely take it in if you notice it. Mine came up after about 8k miles. They were explaining that the transmission learns your driving habits and adjusts to it but thankfully it’s been good since they reprogrammed it

[@jmwlife2k]

@@ramolifee Yeah that’s what I figured happened when the jerkiness went away. Either that, or I just got used to it and don’t notice it as much. But I’m going to see for sure tomorrow!

[@PlatinumPeasant]

Sorry to hear you are having issues with it man. Have you looked into the buy back process maybe?

[@ramolifee]

Thanks man, so far so good since they did the flash. Hoping it stays that way lol no I didn’t even know Ford had such a thing?

[@PlatinumPeasant]

@@ramolifee certain states have lemon laws. Good to know if things continue to act up. My 3.0 Powerstroke has been solid with the 10 speed. It’s a good transmission but it gets confused sometimes unfortunately.

[@martindriver6026]

Thanks, just got a powerboost Platinum so far have 1200 miles on it. If it starts to do that? I know what to tell them at the dealership its a software issue. This video very helpful. Thanks again.

No problem, Congrats man enjoy the truck!

Don't know why any customer gotta point out the problem for these idiots. They should know full well by now what is causing this multitude of problems with their trucks.

Almost at 2000 miles, still have not any issues. Will keep my fingers crossed. 😀

[@jamesvitale7132]

I have a 2018 & my issue is in 4th. Got the Trans "reprogrammed" good for a while & started doing it again. This 💩 10 speed Trans was a bad idea from the start!

[@ramolifee]

Exactly what I’m afraid of 😳

[@Shad0wC0mpany2]

First of all, nice looking truck! What percentage of film did you go with? Doesn’t look bad at all 😎 Second, I Hope the reflash/reprogram helps you, and others, and I guess me too once my 2022 Super Duty has been built… For the prices they charge for these vehicles, the least Ford can do as they laugh their way to the banks while we schedule appointments for transmission diagnostics would be to listen to their customers, and consider someday bringing in the ZF 8-speed to the 150/SD market.

[@ramolifee]

Thank you! I did 5% on rears and 35% on front windows. 3m ceramic So far since the reflash it’s been perfectly fine, hoping it stays this way.. I agree! I learned that these 10-speeds have been an issue for a while now smh

[@jamesbandy8866]

What did the dealership do? Same issue I'm having.

[@victor_beltran]

He said in video. Transmission relearn.

[@chrisholland2016]

Well all trucks have their flaws at least. Transmissions aren't really a competition anymore. Even GM trucks have it bad. Really gorgeous truck though I actually had a 2014 F150 Limited when I was 17-20 years of age. Really loved it now I'm really wanting another one. That big tip top of the line price tag is my biggest issue.

[@Travide]

I have issues with my 2021 now 2.7 L 1st to 2nd it almost stalls

Haha...that is a characteristic of that transmission. I have a '19 and have lived with the jerky 2-3-4 shift when the transmission is cold. I think it will be back...

Did it make a small ticking noise at slow speeds because mine has the harsh shifting and a small ticking noise as well

[@stevewu7555]

You have great taste in cars. Curious--between the Limited and your G63, which do you like better as a daily driver? They're vastly different in price, but wouldn't be surprised if you actually prefer spending time in the F150. I've driven an F150 for 10 years and will likely be in the market soon for either a new Limited, Range Rover Sport Autobiography, or possibly something Mercedes.

[@ramolifee]

Thank you! Crazy to say but I prefer the F-150 as my daily driver it’s a very spacious and comfortable place to spend time in. The G63 is definitely more fun with the exhaust and power

Great truck, but unless it is Toyota or Lexus, dont ever buy a first year production truck. Also, the 10-speed is pos!

Very doubtful there has been damage. As long as he drove normally he should be fine . I have had this ten speed since 2017. Mine has some harsh shifts up or down at times. I'm not easy on this truck. Way to much fun of a truck. 17 Raptor. 😀. Mine has 44,000.00 on it. Just get a reflash, for as many of these transmission's that are on the road not a major issue overall.
