I think it was mentioned a few posts back. Ford customer service is telling people, including myself "late 2nd quarter" which means by the end of June. Time will tell ...

Sniff, I thought my truck stopped doing the uphill shudder, nope, still does it. Seems like it does it when going uphill in 6th under 1200 RPM's. Seems like the whole truck is shaking. Is this what others are having?

Exactly the feeling. My eco never had the bog and loss of power, fortunately. Just this feeling like the truck was gonna fall apart.

If I knew about the shudder problem before, I never would have looked at buying a new truck. When it does arrive, I will likely not take delivery. I get upset just hearing you'all having problems.

Sorry if I am off topic, but I got a 5.0 FX4 on order and am very curious how your 2012 FX4 is running. Why did you go and buy another F-150? I mean after knowing the trans (shuddering) has problems?

I do have the steering popping feeling on this truck, but absolutely no stuttering like the eco. I know its not the tranny and is directly related to the ecoboost, so I wasnt worried buying another F150. The engine misfire codes on cylinders 4, 5 and 6 on my eco also solidified that it was an engine thing for me.
