Ford Faces Class Action Lawsuit Over Vehicles Equipped with 10R80 Transmissions

Owners report Ford vehicles equipped with the 10R80 10-speed transmission of delayed shifting, jerking and power loss, but say the manufacturer has done nothing to fix the problem.

  I have a 2018 F-150 with 2.7 engine an 10 speed transmission. Had early transmission problems and went through the reprogramming scenario multiple times with no satisfaction. Clunking. hard shifting, hard downshifting, and skipping gears when downshifting. High revving and slamming into gear from park. Now finding out about the class action lawsuit.

  2016 F-150, 2.7L Ecoboost is in the shop for a rear differential replacement...repair will cost $3000.

  Transmission issues with my 2018 F150. Took it to the dealership and they advised me i would need a new transmission. The service tech told me he had seen this issue a lot. Hoping to join in on any class action lawsuit. In WV

  2019 F150 transmission damages were repaired but occurred again 6 month later, now waiting since 4 weeks to have there warranty opening the transmission to further repair or replace ( Endurance Elite Membership paid $8750 so far) driving a enterprise rental for a month, where can I join the lawsuit ?

• JeffMarch 17, 2024 at 3:16 pm

  Just had valve box replaced. But still having the same problem and more. Shifts between 3rd to 5th are very clunky/jerky. Now on highway I would lose acceleration due to transmission. Rough shifting in one thing but the lost acceleration is safety hazard. Will see would Ford says on Monday. Any updates on lawsuit? 2018 f150 3.5 eco boost

Eitherway it's not acceptable. What if i roll 1/4 of a car length into a car, or even worse, a child. The engine is effectively disconnected from the transmission for say 7-10 seconds during this roll back (like a manual with clutch in) and that is effectively loss of control.

Dealer now wants me to pay to have the clutch replaced (that’s what is causing the shuttering). Warranty is long expired. Transmission was the next to falter. There’s a recall for this, but the dealership refused to replace it several times (starting June 2023). The car finally stopped running- it wouldn’t turn on - so they had to fix it. I had many close calls on the highway because of the transmission before it was finally fixed mid February 2024.

Last week on 200-mile road trip tranny overheated and lost power. let it cool for 30 min and made it to the destination. then drove home 3 days later with no problems, except 2 loud tranny thuds during the return trip, but babied it. Took to Gosch Ford in Temecula, CA and the service writer was visibly nervous and asked if i had an extended warranty. He made me nervous as well, but i agreed to leave it for the diagnostic. Called 3 hours later and said they think its the tranny solenoid or computer and they need 28 hours of labor to change parts to try and get it repaired, but suggested he may not be able to fix it. Then told me he suggests a new 10R80 tranny for $9,400. I lost it, then he said that's not all your water pump is gone, and its another $1,700. I have now done the research and see all the complaints, lemon law forums and lawsuits related to this 10R80 tranny. During my research I found out that n=my truc which I bought used with 29k miles has a transferrable 100k warranty purchased by the orig owner, but was never transferred to me. This is BS! I am going to talk to the GM and Service Manager tomorrow. I am looking into CA Lemon laws and class action lawsuits as well. I won't be spending the $11k. This is my 8th ford vehicle and I am truly disgusted. I bought the top of the line platinum with the intention of keeping it for at least 10 years. I love my truck, but am appalled at Ford right now!!!

Since the cam phaser job I've been experiencing dangerous transmission issues which have left me unable to accelerate at times in dangerous traffic situations. The ford dealership is trying to scalp me another 11,000$ due to a bad transmission which is obviously a lie given the transmission had no issues before the faulty cam phaser repair. Ford needs to pay for this fix, they produced known faulty parts, and expect the customer to pay top dollar for the vehicle and the repair. Regardless this will be the last Ford product I will buy.

  Loud clunk when I warm remote start it causes the transmission to engage the driveshaft at the rear axle. Was told that’s a characteristic of the truck. Sometimes when I accelerate the truck doesn’t shift out of gear and just jerks back when I let off the gas. Throws everyone in the truck forward.

I took my F150 to dealer for diagnostic this week and the trans does need to be rebuilt. on 12-1-2023 I had the adaptive learning tables cleared and trans reprogramed (BTW, dealership did not ask for my permission to do so). I was glad this was done when they told me the truck was running perfectly after this process. From there I asked them to change the trans fluid, since I was at 80,000 and this should be done at 60,000. All that cost $417.22, which I would NOT have had done if I thought there was a chance this would not be the fix. Reality is that the ALT clearing and reprogram is the first of 3 step repair process Ford is "recommending" as a plan to fix the issue. Back to the Diagnostic today. Transmission rebuild repair will cost $4,266,67 and Ford will cover $1,706.67, which has a remaining $2,560.00 for me to cover. Add that to the useless ALT reset and reprogram and trans fluid change, I will be into this repair for a total of $2,977.22 when all is said and done. If Ford didn't cover anything, I would have paid a total of $4,683.89. All that said, with Ford agreeing to pay what they will, my truck being out of warranty, and agreeing to this all very easily and quickly after quickly speaking with their customer care, I feel like Ford is clearly mitigating the cost to repair and this is clearly an admission of guild on their end. I am escalating my case to the next level at Ford Customer Care 1 (800) 392-3673. If you have this issue, start with this number and get something back. Hopefully we get more back when the class action suit is over.

As usual, couldn’t find anything wrong with it. Took it back to Ford this summer because the problem seemed to be getting worse and they changed the transfer case fluid. Now to December back at the garage with transmission leak. I have owned Ford F150 truck for years and I have to say this is a Lemon. With the price of vehicles these days how can Ford get away with not recalling? This is a safety concern. I was traveling on 71 is Ohio with my autistic daughter in the back when all of a sudden transmission slipped, vehicle seems to loose power and I lost 15 mphs in the middle lane of traffic going about 70 mps, needless to say I about got ran over and caused an accident. THIS IS UNACCEPTABLE FORD !

I wont take it to get fixed again until Ford pays for a new transmission and valve box. I lose power, jerking transmission and clunky gear shifting. The mechanic told me this was normal. I was a tank mechanic for the US Army. Tanks are clunky. $75,000 vehicles should work without issues. Ford should be ashamed.

  Mine started slipping and hard shifting at 63K right after I paid it off... a short time later a see manual wrench light came on. (But no recordable codes... now I slips and shifts from 10 to 1, 1 -4, 4 to 8. a new transmission is going to cost me 5K plus not considering the labor. Very disappointed.

Can’t really afford the huge extra cost, but for my families safety and to continue being able to pay the bills we need the transportation. So, I don’t have much of a choice or any other options!

When I’m at a complete stop it would stay in 7th gear and wouldn’t shift down to first gear and when I press the gas peddle it would just rev up in gear like it’s in neutral then slowly start to accelerate. At times when I’m around 25-45 miles an hour and press the gas peddle down to speed up to pass a car it would just rev up and not speed up then grab gear again and slowly accelerate which is very concerning. Luckily I purchased the extended the extended warranty and I contacted my local Ford dealer service department. When I spoke with the service department I told him I wanted to bring my truck in for transmission issue and started asking for my name, year truck and contact information and said he would call me once he can get me in. I asked him if he wanted to know the issue I was having to my surprise he was honest and said we know there’s been issues with the 10 speed transmission and describe all the symptoms i previously mentioned.

  I have a 2018 Ford max Limited expedition keep 10 gears Transmission, skipping gears and when you go to switch lanes to accelerate it jumps into neutral and loses power, I’m worried about getting rear-ended accident because of it, then it gives the loud jerk when it finally kicks back into gear & no engine light is coming on. Even had the transmission fluid changed and still no change.

• MikeDecember 6, 2023 at 10:48 am

  Same problem as every else. 2018 F150 XLT. 65k miles. Transmission slipping into neutral. Jumping between gears, clunking into 3rd gear. Ford dealer says I need a new transmission. Ford customer service says no help. To bad. 65k and a transmission needs replacement. Come on Ford. I would like to know how Tony got CS to cover.

I can't exactly keep driving it, so now I get to make payments on a truck I can't even drive?? How is this right? Come on Ford... Do better!

My less than 3 year old Ford Ranger with 68K miles needs a NEW transmission and they are telling me that it will be between $7-8K. I NEVER had any service lights or warnings prior to this. One week ago, I was driving on the freeway with my child and the truck started to decelerate and rev past 5rpm. I was able to get off the freeway but the truck wouldn't go past 20mph. I was able to park it but it wouldn't go into reverse. We were able to leave it at a Ford service center in the area but it's located 30 minutes away from home. Not only is the cost to repair outrageous but I am also learning that they can't work on the transmission until March/April 2024.

I will post again after I get into the dealer to get estimate from Ford CS. They told me it will typically be 40%-60% of what the "dealer cost" is to repair. This is supposed to be significantly LESS than the $5,500 I was told so 40%-60% of a lower than $5,500 number for a new trans sounds fantastic to me:) I will post again when I get the complete estimate.

  I have a 2020 Ford Ranger with 28k miles on it. Transmission shifts poorly buck's, Jerks, jumps, hesitates. Mostly between 30 and 40 mph but also feels like someone rear-ended me while stopping. Ford wants $7000 to replace since they can not fix it. A local repair shop wants $2500 to repair it.

Brought the truck to my local dealer and was informed that it should just need a relearn done. Was informed at this point that if the relearn didnt resolve the issue then parts would be ordered as per the TSB. Brought my truck back in for the same issue in May of 2023 and mentioned that the truck was continuing to shift roughly after the initial relearn. Truck was taken for a test drive and a second relearn was completed. The issue still remained so, once again, I brought the truck back in hoping that the dealership would honour what was stated the first time and begin repair work to correct the issue. No luck. Its now been 7 months of this back and forth regarding the same issue which has now gotten significantly worse. I have now had multiple near miss accidents due to the truck hesitating during aceleration, getting stuck in higher gears when coming to a complete stop preventing proper acceletation when leaving the stop and occasionally deciding to drop from 7th to first while cruising at highway speeds. All of this has been brought to the dealers attention and still nothing has been done to resolve the issues. An extended warranty was purchased for piece of mind but it seems like the dealership will attemt to drag things out in order to run out the warranty so that the work doesnt need to be completed. So now im driving a vehicle that coule leave me stranded, or worse. Due to the ongoing issues, this "reliable" vehicle is no longer used to commute with family which is a shame as this was the original intent of purchacing.

I went to the dealer and they didn't want to do anything or talk about it. I wonder why. I have had dozens of trucks and this is buy far the worst has far as the transmission.

My expedition is still in the shop today for these issues, it’s been 3 months. My lease is up in May. I called Ford to request a buy back, it was denied. I don’t know what else I can do at this point, but I did put in a complaint to the government to look into this issue, I believe through the state highway administration with the my VIN number and contact info with a description of the transmission issues in August. All should do the same so they look into it.

No acceleration, when trying to accelerate it will drop to 1st gear, act like it wants to stall out, then shifts into gear after grinding really bad. Sounds like a aluminum can going through a shredder. Upon my research, the CDF Clutch hub assembly has a bushing thar’s slipping out of place. Ford Motor Company has fixed this hub assembly design to include a “lip” so the bushing doesn’t slid out of place. I believe Ford Motor Company should be responsible for this fault design/part that released into the market.

The dealership touted its Blue Advantage and Gold Certified Used Vehicle Coverage. Now—less than two months after the trade, the vehicle is unsafe to drive because of transmission issues described by others in this thread. Getting the vehicle inspected at our local dealership (the one we bought it at was an hour away) or really any Ford Repair shop is a lesson in patience. We need the vehicle because we are now two working adults with only one car. The transmission person has a lot of vehicles before he can get to ours. I wonder why? I’m being sarcastic. Our Gold Advantage should cover at least one week of a rental, but it’s already been two weeks and so far we’ve had to pay out of our pockets for a rental and scramble when we don’t have a second car. It sounds like it’ll be another 3 weeks minimum to either rework or replace the transmission. This is absolutely unacceptable in a car we’ve had less than two months. Where is the customer service, Ford? I’d like to be part of this class action lawsuit too…

They indicate i have a Wrap warranty, the dealer doesn't want to deal with it. So i provide all the receipts i could get in 24 hours. The mechanic i used for most major stuff lost shop in Hurricane. I Bring to dealership. They inform me 24 hours later it was denied. I didn't provide enough service reports. I contact dealer that sold me truck. They tell me to bring truck to them, they would get it done. They give me a loaner. 3 weeks later they drive my truck back with no services rendered and picked up loaner. No paperwork with delivery. I call the service manager, he says, " because I called warranty company and asked if I needed to get a lawyer, they would not honor fixing" . Since getting truck back, not fixed, the sync screen is gone, back up camaera comes on randomly, no reset functions work. I feel robbed by ford. 4 year old 50k truck is technically trash.

Very frustrated and needs to be made right.

Was given a warranty along with the purchase. It has been in the shop once already and was covered under the warranty. Now we are experiencing the issues as everyone else when dealing with the 10 speed transmission. Skipping gears, stalling when passing, sudden jerking while switching gears as well. Codes indicated yesterday that the transmission is shot. Was considering to having it rebuilt until we were told that the problem with that is parts cannot be found in order to do so. (So that tells us we have a major shortage of parts due to owners having problems with the transmission) Now we are looking $8,000 for a new transmission and of course our son being teenager and his first vehicle is heartbroken over it. We too would love to get in on this law suit!

September rolls around, still had the hard shift so I took it to my transmission shop that has done work on my other cars. He said the transmission looked great, pan was clean, issue was the motor was misfiring and I had a shutter that needed to be fixed. I had just spent $2200 at Ford two weeks before that for the shutter to be fixed and the transmission being re-programmed. Now in October, I take it back to Ford to get the shutter fixed again and they tell me that they fixed the shutter this time and the transmission now needs the CDF housing replaced and the part costs $805, requires 7 hours of labor and will cost $5800 total. And this is on top of the cam phasers being replaced twice under warranty and then once out of pocket in January.

  I paid over $8500 to have my entire transmission replaced on my 2018 F-150 XLT *one month* after my warranty expired and only around 41k miles. They wouldn't cover it because I hadn't brought it in for that before. Less than 5 months before that I brought it in for a routine service and it was OK. Been following a few of these lawsuits and hopefully I can recoup some, if not all, or my money soon.

Just picked it up from the dealership yesterday and it’s still not shifting correctly. We only had this for a year.. it’s not safe and am worried that someone in my family will get hurt if this continues on. This is my main vehicle and I always have my 3 year old with me. Get it together Ford. Fix this already or replace our vehicles.

When I checked my rearview mirror I noticed some cars coming up fast. I started to accelerate when I heard a loud noise and a complete loss of power. The transmission continued making noises but did rein-gage and I managed to get ahead of the other car and move back to the right lane. The transmission continued making noises and shifting from gear to gear with power loss. Fortunately I was only a couple of miles from an exit at Ardmore, Ok. We pulled off at a Love’s Travel and called Ford Roadside Assistance. To shorten the story, no tow truck till the next morning, had to stay in a motel overnight. The vehicle is currently at the Fort Dealer in Ardmore, they claim some type of clutch broke and should have it fixed this coming week.

There has been sounds under the truck while driving it, seems like you are dragging a big Tree limb but when you look there is nothing so it has to be in the truck somewhere, wheels, transmission not really sure. The truck has used oil from day one. Have had to add oil between changes. The dealership just gives us a run around like the transmission is made to do that because it is a ten speed, The truck uses the oil because it's being broke in, when it is gets more miles, it will stop using oil. They can never know what the sound that is being made while driving, underneath the truck is they have no ideal. ALL I CAN SAY IS WE GOT A BIG LEMON.

I went in today they're going to give me a loaner... My truck MIGHT be done by the 12th... but after reading this, I'm not real optimistic that this will be the end of the issues. Damn it!

They know they have significant design issues with this transmission but will not acknowledge it as the recall will be financially draining for them.

  Started having problems in 2020, addressed it with dealer and it seemed to resolve for a month after they “replaced a seal” only to have issues return.

Now that my 2018 F-150 is 6,000 miles and 1 month out of warranty, I just replaced transmission for $6700 from a transmission shop because the $8000 dealer cost didn’t seem like a deal and honestly have lost faith in them because of other issues that they did not fix. Hoping Ford makes this right and gives an avenue for reimbursement of a known flawed issue. Owner of transmission shop stated that mine wasn’t the first F-150 and wouldn’t be the last that he is replacing. He mentioned that Ford knows about the issue and that he is simply waiting for them to extend the warranty to help with repairs or have someone file a lawsuit to in order to get something done about it

  The first time my 2020 Ranger showed an issue it was on a road trip to Florida from NC last November. Total loss of power on interstate 95; very scary! Then, it didn’t want to find the right gears between 35-55mph. Lurching, bucking and hard shifting. It is horrible and Ford needs to make it right!

• StephenAugust 21, 2023 at 10:44 am

  I have a 2017 build date is late (almost 2018) I have been having issues with hard shifts, and power loss under load.

  I have 2020 expedition limited max with 60k miles, Does this exact thing!! Ford should have to recall this issue!!!

  I have a 2020 Ford Expedition XLT Max that l purchased (Jan 2020). I started noticing a problem with the transmission shifting gears around 50K. I returned the vehicle 3x to the service department and l was told that they couldn't feel or see anything wrong. As l got closer to my extended warranty expiration, l returned the truck once again to no avail.

As l got closer to my extended warranty expiration, l returned the truck once again to no avail. I took my SUV to AAMCO and they informed me that l had a sensor problem that controlled the transmission. I returned to the dealership with the information and once again l was told that there wasn't a problem with my vehicle. Fastforward and at 100K my transmission was losing power, burning excess gas, and jerking motion. I contacted the dealership and was informed that my numerous visits about my transmission was never recorded. I spend $6700 dollars to install a new 10-speed transmission. As an owner of four previous new Expedition, this will DEFINITELY be my last. I feel that FORD Corporation and my dealership knew about the transmission problems since they had a recall on all Fords (2015-2019) that were equipped with the 10-speed transmission. My next SUV will definitely be a Cadillac Escalade.

• LourdesAugust 14, 2023 at 6:25 pm

  I knew I wasn’t imagining it. I too have experienced scary moments while merging onto highways, losing power and almost causing an accident. Very frustrating and dangerous.

• JimAugust 14, 2023 at 10:45 am

  I have a 2018 F150 which has been immobile for over 18 months. The local dealership wants $8,000 for parts plus labor to replace. I am making payments for a lawn ornament.

• YuyenJuly 29, 2023 at 9:29 pm

  2018 f150 transmission problem , dealer said 8k to replace to new.

• RobertJuly 19, 2023 at 10:56 pm

  I have a 2020 Ranger with the transmission it sometimes seems like it wants to cut off when you step on the gas when you pull out of a drive or let your foot off the gas and back on again. It also jumps and skips sometime when it is shifting into the next gear.

• EarlJuly 14, 2023 at 4:24 pm

  Had this problem since I bought new in 2018. Been to 3 ford dealers and has not been fixed yet

• RichardJuly 14, 2023 at 12:25 pm

  I have a 2022 Ford F150 and my transmission does all the things mentioned in the class action suit. What is most concerning is the loss of power when I need to speed up quickly to merge, etc and my truck seems like it is stalling…where do I sign on with this class action lawsuit? Also, just getting some compensation for the faulty transmissions is not enough.

Also, just getting some compensation for the faulty transmissions is not enough. Ford needs to be forced to replace and/or fix the faulty transmissions. If not, any settlement Ford agrees to that is short of compensation that is short of a new transmission cost is going to bite customers who accept the settlement amount in the butt because they will have to sign a waiver for any future claims against Ford related to the transmission issue.

• ShirleyJuly 14, 2023 at 12:21 pm

  I have the exact same complaints with my Ford F-150. Nothing has been fixed yet after several trips to get it repaired. I’m scared this issue will result in an accident. Add me to your petitions.

• AmyJuly 14, 2023 at 10:43 am

  I have a 2018 F150. Have asked for it to be looked into several times and being told it's normal or could be corrected by a computer! It wasn't.

• ThomasJuly 14, 2023 at 9:16 am

  I’m the original owner of a 2018 F150 with the 10r80 transmission. It’s in the shop again now due to the transmission. It’s also had to have the cam phasers replaced and it’s on its second motor. The dealer has reprogrammed the trans 3 or 4 times. My truck 63 xxx miles on it, my issues started at 20k miles.

• DouglasJuly 13, 2023 at 10:03 pm

  I had a mustang GT 10 speed it lost power on the high BAMM locked in 3rd gear. The dealership said yep we have bulletin on that. The 2020 I traded into has a harsh jerk on the high end and slow pecking on the low end and has a overall constant whine once the trans heats up. Ford says all of that is normal for 10 speed. Scary is my answer not to mention distracting

• RossJuly 13, 2023 at 2:16 pm

  I have had many many issues with this terrible transmission. Situations like pulling a trailer going through Colorado at night and transmission is jerking, losing power ect. Even without pulling a trailer it jerks, shudders, throws codes. Many times it has had issues merging onto highways, losing power and almost causing an accident. Very frustrating and dangerous.
