you said the dealer said it was low RPM Misfire did you change plugs and did it work
any imfor would be helpful thanks
any suggestions - on what this could be? tranny bad or mabye something came loose . please advise . ( Automatic Transmission)
Ford Dealership representative said this F-150 does not have a filter to replace, is this true?
Would it make a difference to replace filter?
Truck is no longer under warranty, so would anyone know what this repair would cost?
Would there have to be complete replacement of the transmission?
Thank you for the replys.
We changed the oil regularly and there was only 2000 miles since the most recent oil change. Of course Ford didnt want to help at all, but after much discussion and telling them they could have the truck, Ford said they would help with repair if when they opened up engine they could tell it was not an oil change issue. Guess what , they helped with the repair and would not/could not tell me why this engine failed. I feel it was a DEFECTIVE engine, otherwise they wouldnt have covered a penny of this repair. It was fishy when they said they couldnt determine why the engine failed and this model year engine has problems, just look on internet.,
36,100 miles: transmission gave out. New transmission. Ford did a 50/50 split on price because it was only 100 miles.
77,000 miles: another transmission destroyed itself. New transmission, I was at my 3 year one month mark on the warranty and Corp. Ford told me they will not pay anything because I was out of warranty by a little less than a month. $3,200 later I have a new transmission.
82,000miles (3 months later): transmission is slipping in O/D at approx. 43 mph. Dealer and corporate will not admit there is an ongoing problem with the truck and will not stand by their product. This transmission is obviously under warranty but it’s pointless to get it fixed if it’s just going to burn up.
Best action: Call local Better Business Bureau Office and make a complaint. If they get enough complaints, they have to investigate it. Also they can help you get mediation between corporate. I personally will never buy Ford again. They cannot seem to stand by their product.
Any suggestions? Thank you
Anyway, after making a trip up North My O/D light came on when I started after jumping the starter. (Note I did have to jump the starter to get it to start and I still can't get it to start with just the key!). I now have to use a push button start that I installed myself. I have looked at all the relays, fuses and wires that could cause a no crank problem, and found nothing of concern. I am wondering if anyone else has had this problem and if they figured out what it was.
Symptoms:
NO Engine CODE
O/D light only when engaged in park
Starter has to be jumped via push button to start
No shifting problems at all (shifts perfect and smooth)
:confuse:
The trucks rpm's are high the truck runs fine. Also doesn't like to
Spit out a code. If this is in fact the issue replace them all because they
Will start to go one by one. Good luck.
Would the TCC Pressure Control cause the problem? And also someone may have put the wrong fluid in it, would this maybe be the cause?
Thank you for your comments.
