Upon starting the drive shaft is being twisted, causing a loud crack\bang from the joints. This noise\complaint is consistent with numerous TSB's and illinois class action law suit concerning these defective 10 speed transmissions. Further, both at a stop, shifting fwd. \rev. And operating at low speeds (maneuvering in parking lots) there is a definite clunk in the rear end as you accelerate \ decelerate; this coming from the rear differential yoke\joint. This problem has\is occurring since purchase, 03\2020 and is becoming more frequent. As of 10\07\2020 the truck has 10,000 miles.
I purchased a left over 2019 in June 2020. The vehicle has been back twice for transmission issues to the dealership. I was told that I have to live with it from a service advisor. The vehicle's powertrain is jerky when slowing down. It feels like a kick when is goes from gear to gear up or down shifting. There is also a loud bang upon start up. I video taped it, the drive shaft twist upon start up. Seems unsafe if the drive pin is the only thing hold a 7000 lbs vehicle or if you start in neutral. Overall the pcm needs new transmission strategy applied. Very poor on Ford's behalf.
10r80 10-speed automatic transmission / driveshaft makes loud bang or clunk noise when first starting the engine. The clunking noise continues when you accelerate (light or heavy) and take your foot off throttle the clucks/ bangs are so strong you feel like someone reared you. The automatic transmission jerks and slipped when shifting gears up or down. When city driving transmission / driveshaft clucks/ bangs more because of stop and go. On the highway transmission downshifts and up shifts for no reason and 4 to 6 second delay in throttle response. Have had it to dealership 5 times. First time dealer reset tcm program to "relearn"shifts. Didn't fix problem. Second time checked grease in yolk. Grease full. Still not fixed. 3rd, 4th, and 5th time dealership called Ford "hotline" for repair or fix. No call back or fix from Ford to date.
