2014 F150 Tranmission Leak
Just an FYI.
I have a 2014 F150 3.7 ecoboost that developed an oil leak at 7K miles. I took it to my dealer and they replaced a transmission pump. I have since driven it up 12K miles with drops of oil forming on the transmission housing and sway bar. Today I was informed that the transmission housing has a hole in it from the casting process. Ford will only authorize a new housing with the internal components being swapped to the new housing. I have read several reports of oil leaks, don;t always assume it's a seal or gasket leaking.

I do not have a picture of it anymore, but when I first found it the bottom bolt was damp with a drop of oil on it, the sway bar had oil drops and you could see a stain on the pan. After they replaced the pump, an oil drop would always be on the bolt and bell housing. the dealership put dye in the motor and transmission to determine which component the oil was coming from the first time.
It looked a lot like the pictures in the following link and thread.
