The two driveshafts that connect together with the center boot broke apart while driving. Luckily when this happened I was only traveling 3 miles an hour. This is a major safety issue that should be addressed, either have a one piece drive shaft or the sleeve should be better secured. I feel that if this had happened while I was traveling on the expressway, my family and others could have been in serious danger.
Cab leaks after rain can be a mold issue some time when turning going off curbs or hitting months you hear a banging noise the driveshaft it will pop when take off I had it grease by Ford little bit better once in awhile still does. All this still go on.
Reoccurring issue with transmission fluid leakage. My 2010 Ford F-150 XLT supercrew engine 4. 6 l at 89k miles with all its maintenance done like clockwork and driven like a baby required its automatic transmission seals replaced (transmission fluid leakage around the transmission bulkhead connector sleeve) 01/02/17. The dealer said that the current repair is not covered under warranty as the truck is passed its 60k power train warranty that previous repair completed back on Feb 2015 (completed under warranty as the truck had 57k miles at the time). Even though they have to do the same thing as back in Feb 2015 where they have to bring the transmission down and re-seal it in addition to the new repair of the transmission bulkhead connector sleeve. I can not understand why Ford and its techs whom are aware of the TSB 14-0069 (attached) *a known issue prior to 2014* did not "replace repair" this part back on Feb 2015 so that the customer would not find himself in this situation with a $721. 04 repair bill. I'm highly disappointed and dissatisfied with the purchase of my truck I have never owned any vehicle that within 6 years or less the transmission and drive shaft had to be repaired so often (this f150 is not used commercially and its well cared for maintained). My family and I have owned Ford's and Honda's in the past and never has anyone in my family and I had to replace or repair so often a transmission. This is not the 1st issue I have had with the automatic transmission of my truck I had taken it in to doral Lincoln while it was still under warranty as it was jerking on gear changes they lubricated the transmission and draft shaft additionally I had the drive shaft coupler/boot replaced at sawgrass Ford as well it was out of warranty this repair cost me $185. 90 on 09/17/2016.
The truck misses at an idle and we also had to have the drive shaft replaced.
