Diagnostic code was P0316. Service tech recommendation was to replace engine for $14,000.00 including parts and labor (declined recommendation). Brought vehicle to another dealership but found no codes. Instead replaced engine motor mounts, sparkplugs, and air filter due to noticeable vibrations. Dealership service tech inspected engine but found no abnormal findings. Went to another Ford dealership on 10/08/2026 to check Code P0299 that appeared on OBD test and for further inspection due to sluggish acceleration from full stop and slows down going uphill. Ford's guidance stated that torque converter failing due to mileage, acceleration/power loss from dead stop. Recommended fix was to replace the transmission for $8,461.03 (declined recommended service). On 10/23/2026, I picked up my vehicle from the dealership. During my return journey from the dealership, I encountered the same sluggish acceleration. A safety hazard that is attributed to a malfunctioning torque converter, a know problem for Ford. Consequently, Ford dispatched CSP 20B27 to assist in safeguarding the transmission converter from overheating. Regrettably, this intervention proved ineffective in mitigating the problem. Ford issued CSP 20N07 to extend warranty coverage of the automatic transmission torque converter for 12 months from RO date which in my case, RO date on CSP 20B27 was 03/19/2021. Despite the 12-month eligibility period not being met, my vehicle should have remained covered. Initially, Ford was aware of a transmission torque issue and was attempting to resolve it through CSP 20B27 and CSP 20N07. Currently,  mileage is at 85K miles but I'm hesitant to drive due to safety concerns.","products":[{"type":"Vehicle","productYear":"2017","productMake":"FORD","productModel":"EXPLORER","manufacturer":"Ford Motor Company"}]}]}
