 Description of the problemMy 2017 ford f150 has problems with the transmission, but ford motor company has refused to honor the powertrain warranty and will not authorize the dealership to repair or replace it. The details of what has happened are described in one of two pdf files that i will attach to this submission. I believe that the problem i am having may be widespread and that ford dealerships all over the country may be refusing to repair or replace defective transmissions because ford motor company will not authorize their dealerships to do this warranted work. One of the problems i have had with the transmission is in my opinion potentially dangerous and lethal. On december 24, 2019, while merging on to a busy highway from the on-ramp, with the transmission in sport mode, my truck did not accelerate as i entered the lane adjacent to the on-ramp. When i stepped on the gas pedal, the rpm dial went up to about 6000, but nothing happened. The speed of my truck did not increase, causing the vehicle behind me in this lane to almost rear-ended me. Had this other driver not been paying attention and failed to apply his or her brakes, a serious accident could have occurred. Although the dealership has been very cooperative and has even offered to replace my vehicle with a newer and more expensive one (which i declined), ford motor company (with whom i have traded emails about this) appears so far to be unconcerned and content with the concept that an apparently defective transmission in at least one (possibly millions) of its f150s could compromise the safety of its driver. I am deeply concerned.
