The Ford F-150 has had notable transmission problems during certain model years:
- 1995: Some models from this year faced recurring transmission issues that prompted recalls and free repairs by Ford.
-
2004 to 2008: Reports of transmission slippage, failure to engage gears, and hard shifting were common, particularly in the 2008 model year.
-
2011 to 2013: Issues with the 6-speed transmission included harsh or erratic gear shifts. Some models experienced sudden loss of power while driving.
-
2017 to 2020: The 10-speed 10R80 automatic transmission faced problems like rough shifting, slipping, and delayed response. These issues led to a class-action lawsuit in 2021.
For buyers or owners, regular maintenance and checking for recalls or service bulletins can help mitigate potential problems.
