Back in for the 6th time

It’s at another dealer so we will see what happens next. If they can’t find it here I will push for swap out.

Hopefully you went far out of the area. Strong suggestion is avoid All Star Ford both in Pittsburg and Tracy. Barely capable of oil changes

Oh great !

It’s at all star in Pittsburg they have had it for two days. Sounds like dealer don’t know what they are doing orrrrrrr they know there is a issue and don’t have a fix for the trans issues.
we will see what the verdict is lol

Hate to hear the problems your having.
I don't see how Ford can not have a fix for these problems and still be shoving them in everything including the Super Duties.

No change !

It has been back in the shop 2 times and going back March 9th it shakes and still clunks I started the buy back on it and just waiting to see if it’s approved or denied have about a week left to find out. I don’t know why they don’t just change the transmission and torch converter. They have torn apart so much to check everything I don’t even want the truck anymore.

Sorry to hear of your problems and thanks for the updates, my 2018 lariat5.0 has 13000 miles on the odo and am watching the transmission and oil problems carefully. I am seriously thinking about the 5 star tune since Florence SC is close to me . I would rather take the truck to let them tune it as being old school .I cant load music on an ipod ha ha ha Thankls TR
