2010 Ford F-150

WHILE DRIVING THE VEHICLE THE VEHICLE HAS VERY ROUGH SHIFTS, AND NOT ONLY THAT BUT WHILE STOPPING OR ACCELERATING AFTER A STOP AND THE VEHICLE HAS BEEN STATIONARY FOR SMALL TIME, THE VEHICLE JERKS WITH A ROUGH SHIFT. ALSO WHILE TRYING TO DRIVE AT AN ACCELERATED SPEED ON A HIGHWAY SUCH AS 55-70 THE VEHICLE BEINGS TO SHAKE MORE SO THE TRANSMISSION AREA AS THOUGH THE GEARS ARE NOT SHIFTING PROPERLY, AND AS THIS OCCURS MY CHECK ENGINE LIGHT COMES ON.

THE NORMAL CAMSHAFT PHASER ISSUES ARE OCCURRING. LOUD KNOCKING, VIBRATING WHILE IDLING, AND GENERAL RATTLING FROM THE MOTOR WHEN THE TRUCK ISN'T ABOVE 1000 RPM'S. WHILE THIS MAY NOT DIRECTLY CAUSE ACCIDENTS, IN INTENSE RATTLING AND KNOCKING CAN CAUSE OTHER ISSUES TO ARISE WHICH IN TURN CAN CAUSE MAJOR SAFETY CONCERNS FOR THE NHTSA. IF FORD DOESN'T DECIDE TO TAKE ON THIS ISSUE AND REPAIR IT, THEN IT CAN BE EXPECTED THAT EVERY 3 VALVE FORD MOTOR MADE SINCE 2005 WILL EVENTUALLY SUCCUMB TO THESE MAJOR ISSUES. AS WE ALL KNOW FORD HAS HAD ISSUES DESIGNING MOTORS IN THE PAST, PRIMARILY THE 6.0, 6.4 AND 5.4 MOTOR THAT I CURRENTLY OWN, BUT IT IS TIME FOR FORD TO STEP UP AND HANDLE THE MECHANICAL PROBLEMS THAT THEIR DESIGNERS NEGLIGENCE CAUSED. IT IS NOT TOO MUCH TO ASK THAT AN AUTO MANUFACTURER STANDS BY THEIR PRODUCT AND REPAIRS OR REPLACES THE FAULTY PART WHEN THE TIME COMES. ADDITIONALLY IN THE PART YOU WHEREIN YOU ASKED FOR THE DATE OF THE INCIDENT, I WILL PUT THE MOST RECENT OCCURRENCE BUT PLEASE NOTE THAT THIS ISSUE IS REOCCURRING AND YOU SHOULD EXPECT KNOCKING AND VIBRATION EVERY TIME YOU DRIVE.

THE TWO DRIVESHAFTS THAT CONNECT TOGETHER WITH THE CENTER BOOT BROKE APART WHILE DRIVING. LUCKILY WHEN THIS HAPPENED I WAS ONLY TRAVELING 3 MILES AN HOUR. THIS IS A MAJOR SAFETY ISSUE THAT SHOULD BE ADDRESSED, EITHER HAVE A ONE PIECE DRIVE SHAFT OR THE SLEEVE SHOULD BE BETTER SECURED. I FEEL THAT IF THIS HAD HAPPENED WHILE I WAS TRAVELING ON THE EXPRESSWAY, MY FAMILY AND OTHERS COULD HAVE BEEN IN SERIOUS DANGER

TAKATA RECALL: MY 2010 FORD RAPTOR WITH THE 6.2L MOTOR HAS BEEN HAVING A WRENCH LIGHT COME ON AND I HAVE HAD TWO QUOTES STATING THE NEUTRAL POSITION SENSOR OR TRANSMISSION RANGE SENSOR IS BAD. I'VE NOTICED THAT MANY RECALLS HAVE BEEN MADE ON THE FORD F-150 MODELS STARTING IN 2011-2014. WITH MY VEHICLE BEING PRODUCED MID YEAR OF 2010. I FEEL MY VEHICLE IS PART OF THAT RECALL. BUT DOESN'T SHOW IN ANY SYSTEMS. MY VEHICLE WILL STAY STUCK IN A CERTAIN GEAR OR NOT START AT ALL. I CAN BE DRIVING DOWN THE HIGH WAY AND THE VEHICLE WILL SHIFT DOWN TO FIRST GEAR WHEN THE VEHICLE IS STILL IN DRIVE WHILE GOING 60MPH. IT MAKES THE VEHICLE REACH REDLINE ON RPMS AND HARD TO STOP THE VEHICLE.

TAKATA INFLATORS. I WAS DRIVING BACK FROM CHARLOTTE WHEN MY TRANSMISSION GOT STUCK IN FIRST GEAR BE. AT 3000 TO 4000 RPMS AND WON'T GO DOWN AT 40 AND 50 MILES.I WAS IN MOTION AT THE TIME IT WAS AROUND 7:30 TO 8PM. AND IT STILL STUCK IN 1ST GEAR. IT START ON A CITY STREET AND I HAD TO DRIVE HOME ON A HWY AND IT WAS STILL GO RMPS AT 3000 TO 4000 AT ANY WERE FROM 40 TO 50 ON THE HIGH WAY. I DON'T WANT TO PUSH IT WITH MY TRANSMISSION.

MY 2010 4.6 2WD SHUTS DOWN WHILE DRIVING AT 40MPH ON THE STREET. I'VE CHANGED SO MANY THINGS AND NOW JUST ORDERED THOTTLE BODY YO SEE IF IT HELPS. NO ONE CAN DIAGNOSE THIS PROBLEM BECAUSE NO CHECK ENGINE LIGHT. I LOSE POWER STEERING AND ALL POWER TO THE VEHICLE. THIS NEEDS TO BE RECALLED BY FORD BECAUSE IT IS VERY DANGEROUS AND ALMOST CAUSED ME TO HAVE ACCIDENTS WITH MY KIDS INSIDE.
