  1. Finally a Ford TSB to Try and Fix our Transmission Problems (TSB 24-2046)

    So a really common problem I'm seeing with all of our rangers is ROUGH and Delayed clunky shifting. I'm also seeing that alot of ranger owners have to replace their transmissions before they reach 100K miles. This sucks. You can bet this harsh delay and clunky shifting is a contributing factor...
  2. 2020 Ranger FX4 Transmission / Diff / Axle vibration

    Hey all, I searched for posts on the problems I'm having but not sure if my issues are similar. I'm getting a vibration when the truck is cold coming from either the transmission diff or axle. It happens between 55 and 65KMH (~40 MPH). It goes away completely when the truck is driven and...
  3. Rolling in park

    So back in August, my parking brakes were seized… Which doesn’t even make any sense because I used them every day… But two mechanics said it would be around $300 to fix, and they both recommended that I don’t get it fixed and just leave it... However, that’s not the issue… The issue is that...
  4. 60k dealer or nah

    I currently have a 2020 Ford Ranger XLT FX4 that has 60,000 miles on it and the dealer is wanting me to get some service done and I’m trying to figure out what actually needs done at this mileage. My current driving conditions as far as temp and weather is central texas. I drive mainly city with...
  5. Another transmission thread (yay)

    Hey everyone, Longtime reader, first time poster. Figured I'd share my transmission story since it sounds like others are going through similar issues as well. Bought my Ranger last August with 27k miles on the odometer. I've been loving it so far, but I've definitely noticed some occasional...
  6. Transmission Horror Story (replacement/factory underfilled?)

    Hello 5g friends, Here's my story. In January I took my 2020 Ford Ranger XLT to my local Ford dealership to take a look at my transmission. In cold weather I was experiencing lag between shifts and hard shift until warmed up. I have put it in drive and have had to wait 20+ seconds for the...
  7. Is this normal

    The issue I have been having is when I accelerate the engine and or transmission has a faint to a little louder sound and the best that I can describe it is when you put a baseball card on your bike and it hits the spokes really fast is this normal? Had a service guy at a ford dealer do a ride...
  8. Shifter staying in sport mode

    Okay... I swear I saw a recall on this and I'm not real sure if this is an issue so I'm asking for some feedback as well. I usually am not in Sport mode for daily driving but I do pop into it occasionally. I noticed the other day that the shifter does not 'lock' into Sport mode. This isn't an...
  9. Seeking advice: Transmission temperatures, towing, and the transmission fluid vent

    I wasn't sure if this belonged under towing or general since I've got a couple of questions here, so if this needs to be moved, please do so. Bit of a backstory: We got our 2019 XLT FX4 supercrew w/ factory tow hitch back in September with only 10k miles on it, mainly as a replacement for our...
  10. Transmission Issue, When Cold (R To D)

    Hey Guys, 19, Lariat, with about 15k miles. I've started to notice, that when the truck has been cold\off for sometime and I reverse out of my garage\driveway I pull onto the street (in R) and shift in to drive, from a complete stop, the vehicle really "bucks\bangs" into gear, and the entire...
  11. Transmission Issues

    Has anyone else experienced rough shifts up and down, rumble strip feeling on decel, shudder on tip in acceleration and slight shudder at low RPM regardless of speed or gear? Probably the worse AT I have experienced. My dealer tells me it is normal for ten speeds to act this way. But...
  12. Truck slamming into drive

    When placing my truck in drive, the truck is lagging going into drive and when it finally engages a loud thud happens, the truck jumps forward and it goes into gear. This has happened both when the truck was cold and warmed up and only when going into drive, not reverse. Has anyone else had...
  13. Starting to get cold feet

    I have bought quite a few cars in my day and never gave it a second thought. For the most part never had any problems. This time is different. I ordered a truck and will have waited almost 6 months. The problem is now all if the problems are getting reported and there seem to be many...
