Did you purchase it new or pre-owned?

You might need the truck flashed.

I have a 2018 with minor issues with the transmission as well. Mine locked in 4th gear leaving the office one day. Took it to the dealership and they reprogramed it. Seemed to help some.

Also noticed that on cold mornings, unless I start the truck and warm it up, that it really shifts hard in lower gears. Around 3-4 up and down.
talked to Ford last week and said Ford was aware of the problem.

Mine wasn’t that bad but I had it reprogrammed and it got better. Go to the dealer and tell them it doesn’t shift right and they’ll update the software.
