Description of the problem | I was traveling approximately 30 mph on a paved road when the vehicle experienced a hard jolt, the rear tires locked up and came to a sudden stop. At first i thought i had been hit from behind by another vehicle but there were no other vehicles behind me. As soon as the vehicle came to a stop i applied brakes and put the vehicle in park and turned off the engine. I then restarted the vehicle at which time i noticed a orange wrench warning light on the instrument panel. I put the vehicle in drive but it would not move. I put the vehicle back in park, turned the engine off and called a wrecker service to take the vehicle to my local ford dealership. My f 150 had approximately 53,000 miles on the odometer when this occurred. Hadthis occurrd a few minutes later i would have been on a major interstate highway and there would have been potential for this causing a dangerous accident. I have not used this vehicle to pull trailers or carry any heavy loads since new. I have not experienced any transmission, brake or other power train issues since owning the vehicle new. |
