While driving ,the trans. drops into neutral while downshifting gears and stays there up to 1-2 seconds. It is a common problem while driving in the city at low speeds. 35-25 mph.
Is anyone else having this problem ?

 

go back to the dealership right now! Honestly, dont bother trying to diagnose it, stick it to the dealership and bank your warranty...and demand a loaner! Something with the words Powerstroke and King Ranch on it.

 

I agree with obus use your warranty and let the dealer fix it.

 

Yea take it to the Stealership.

 

Go to the dealer. That what a warranty is for. And keep us posted.

 

I have something similar as well. When driving along around 25-30MPH the engine will rev up to somewhere around 2000 RPM and then shifts for no reason. I guess its down shifting. I didn't know what to think about that. Its an 08 so i assumed it was fine, being that its new. Let me know what the dealer says.

 

2008 f150 4000 miles. Slips in and out of gear at around 15-30 mph. Has done this since I rolled off of the lot.. Took to ford service, they told me that engineering knows of this and as soon as there is a reprogram ready they will call me. Well 2 months and 3500 miles later still doing it and no call. Just wondering if any one else has had the same issues with ford. Now it has become a safety issue because when i was turning off of a highway i became stuck in an on coming traffic lane for a second. Almost got hit!!!!!!!!!!

 

I am having the same problem, only when slowing down. Have not noticed a shifting problem on acceleration.

 

I am headed down to Ford right now ....I have the exact same hesitation and when on the highway running 70-75 with cruise if I suddenly shut the cruise off it seems to go into 3rd or something and revs up...with my foot off the pedal!! I will repost after todays events!!

 

I have the same issue when accelerating slow between 25 and 30 MPH. Have had the problem ever since I drove the truck off the lot 2 months ago. Have not had time to take it back to dealer.

Has anyone had any luck with the Ford fixing this? Is this just a problem with the 2008 F150 ?
