Yeah, I just replied to another person who got a transmission replacement as well--mine was replaced last week and unfortunately it's still exhibiting some low speed noises. It's noticeably better with the new transmission, but alas, these mystery sounds are still lurking. Are you taking yours...
I've been driving a good deal since the transmission replacement...while the obvious whirring noise is less obvious, I'm still hearing some subtle rattles/noises at low speeds. Still hearing low speed noises? Was hoping with some driving time, things would shake themselves out or maybe I'm...
Sorry to hear--I had my transmission entirely replaced and it did fix the whirring noise (only hear a very faint noise at low speeds occasionally--but it's not bothersome/alarming like it was before) Unfortunately, even my garage foreman and the Ford engineers that he worked with, couldn't...
Hi yes, I actually decided to accept Ford's settlement cash and extended warranty--so I'm keeping the BS. Have you had any further problems with yours now that the new transmission has been in for a bit?
Hey Bronco fam--was wondering on people's opinions/advice. Ford offered to buy my BS in full, however, also offered me a cash/keep option where they kick some money over to me as a settlement for the problems/wait time I've experienced along with a 5 year/75,000 mile Premium CARE warranty. I...
Yeah, I read on this thread there are dealerships that are gaslighting folks and making people think it's not a problem. These are brand new vehicles that we all paid good money for and while I understand these vehicles are considered to be louder and more rugged--there are some noises that...
Would def. keep an eye on the noise as my dealership/garage foreman confirmed that the noise is a legit problem. Had the shifter cables replaced, but noise still remained and then Ford approved a new transmission replacement. At this point, the BS has been in the shop for almost 2 months--in the...
I'd drive it a bit less if you can. Unfortunately, if it's the same issue, you'll be waiting a while for the new transmission. I'm still on backorder and there is no ETA as to when my dealership will get the part--service said it'll probably be another month but did provide a loaner until they...
Appreciate you sharing! Will tag you to see how your BB is doing a few months from now. I probably won’t get my BB back for another month and also requested Ford pay for the insurance (have to keep insurance rolling due to loan requirement) and Ford may cover this as well—you probably could...
Thanks for this update--this gives me a bit of hope that this issue will be resolved. When you first got it fixed, what was the problem that occurred after the new transmission was placed in as I think I remember you said that more problems occurred? I actually just got off the phone with...
Oh wow, I'm sorry to hear this. This is the first time I've purchased a Ford...Not sure I'll buy another Ford after this experience. I would ask your service manager what you can arrange in terms of what other confidence boosters Ford can offer. These are brand new vehicles that we all paid a...
While I'm still waiting for a new transmission, my service department did play around with the shifter cable and also reported some improvement but that it didn't fix the problem. It sounds like we are all having the same exact issues. Unfortunately, my trust/confidence in this vehicle is quite...
How goes it w/your BB? My service dept. now says the new transmission is on backorder--there is no ETA as to when they'll receive and they were saying it will likely be another month.
My new transmission's ETA is not until June 7...I dropped the car off on May 6. I asked about Ford covering the insurance until I get my vehicle back (the least they can do to compensate for this situation) Fortunately my dealership is great and they're on top of everything and opening a...
Same here--one of the service f
Welp, just a call from my service department...they had replaced the transmission cooler, test drove, only to find that there was no change (engine rattle remained)...they have now confirmed that they've put in paperwork to Ford to replace the transmission all...
That's wild that your dealer blew you off like that....would def. go to another dealer. And yes, that's the same noise I was experiencing and it's been hands down confirmed by the garage foreman/service writer at my service department that there is a legitimate problem.
Thanks for the update--yeah, the garage foreman at my Ford said he's pretty sure it's transmission/cooler related. He ordered new parts which should be coming in tomorrow. He also said he was already talking directly with Ford and still running several other diagnostic tests. Maybe will find out...
