Today was driving normally on the side road not towing & in overdrive when around 40mph the overdrive disengaged & starts reving like it's in neutral. I pull over & put it into park & then back into overdrive & start driving once again & same thing happened three times. Luckily there was a service shop close. I took the truck in & they said take it to a transmission shop. He also said it was fine to take it out of overdrive & that wouldn't cause it to do that. So, I took it out of overdrive & it didn't miss a beat. After reading the reviews it seems to be an issue with the overdrive servo retaining clip breaking. This is by far a major problem Ford needs to look into that could potentially put lives at risk. If it's a bad part why not fix the problem if there are hundreds of reports on this same exact issue? I've been a Ford owner all my life & am truly saddened that this could possibly be my last Ford I ever buy again. I'm holding Ford accountable on this & everyone else that has the same issue should do the same. It's a $2. 50 part, that's all. & when you bring it into Ford or any other transmission shop they want to do a whole rebuild which will cost thousands. We go by the saying built in America for a reason & that's not using crap parts. Build it right the first time & have no problems. If you start throwing parts & bubble gumming it to death, this is what happens. Fix it Ford! there are enough complaints on this already.
