Description of the problem | Ford f150 4. 6lt stx lost all power at 45mph. Limped the truck home with the fear of getting run over. Truck is less then 5yrs old with 63k miles on it. If my wife would have been driving i'm sure she would have been hit from behind as i had to take action to keep from being in an accident. Dealership said the transmission failed. I had the vehicle to two different dealers for a stalling issue. To me it felt as if the torque converter was staying locked up stalling the engine. Both dealers were unable to diagnose the problem. This problem has been going on since new in 2010. Now that the transmission has failed 3k miles outside the warranty ford will not do a thing to help but offer a little money towards a 4600$ repair. This in my opinion is a safety issue. If i was not a technician for over 15yrs and a techline adviser for another car company for over 7 i might not have known what was going on. Ford will not stand by their product and rectify this issue and is passing on this failure to me. This is something that needs to be addressed as my wife since it stalled on her will no longer drive the truck even if i get it repaired. Lack of customer service and loyalty by ford motor company! |
