I’ve been very happy with it until recently when it started having difficulty finding and shifting gears.  There have been several instances where I have lost speed while it was searching.  This is an obvious safety issue and needs to be corrected.  I’ve even started planning my routes based on where there are less stops.  The truck has about 85,000 miles on it and should have a lot more life left in it.  I would like to try to explain what’s been happening.  •The transmission is slipping, can’t find gears and occasionally revs up in between gears. •The adaptive learning was reset on July 5 with no improvement. •When shifting 1-3 is ok.  3-4 sometimes it can’t find 4th gear.  It revs up as the indicator on the dashboard goes between gears 4-2-1-8-4 as it is going through this pattern the accelerator is not responsive.  Very embarrassing and unsafe.  As it is looking for 4th gear it takes about 10 seconds to find it, the whole time it is decelerating causing traffic back-ups. •When shifting from 4-5 it slips and engine revs up but finds 5th gear considerable quicker. •5-6 is a normal shift. •6-7 or 8 is normal. •8-9 it slips and revs up just as from 4-5 gear. •9-10 is the same. Slips and revs up before going into 10th gear. •When going up a gradual incline and truck downshifts from 10-9 or 9-8 it slams into the lower gear very harshly. •After the vehicle has been running for a while the shifting pattern will switch.  Instead of shifting from 1-3 it will shift from 1-2, which it cannot find 2nd gear for about 5 seconds, again creating a safety issue.  I’ve taken the truck to a local Ford dealership for evaluation.  They told me that it needs a new transmission and quoted me $8800 to get the work done.  I also understand that this is a common problem with the Ford F-150.  As stated before, this is extremely unsafe and must be repaired.  The wrench on the dashboard is lit up also.","products":[{"type":"Vehicle","productYear":"2018","productMake":"FORD","productModel":"F-150","manufacturer":"Ford Motor Company"}]}]}
