1 Transmission Stuck In Gear problem

Failure Date: 10/03/2019

In a nut shell, look up Ford tsbs: 13-4-9 and 13-6-8. 2013 Mustang, 65,700 miles, with 6-speed auto (6r80) transmission will suddenly get stuck in 5th gear when starting or when cruising at highway speeds. Very dangerous when pulling out into traffic or an on-ramp and suddenly stuck in 5th gear with no ability to accelerate. Not to mention potential road range from drivers behind a car that can't move when the traffic light turns green. The orange wrench, airbag, low fuel indicators illuminated, the speedometer needle drops to zero, odometer, trip meter, "miles until empty" meter all display dashes while driving. Symptoms will clear after an ignition key cycle, but return. Trouble codes (dtcs) p0720 is sometimes stored in the powertrain control module. I'm currently stuck with a >$900 repair bill to replace the lead frame attached to the valve body in the transmission. Please increase scope of existing recall for other years/models with the same 6r80 transmission problem. Ford csp 16n02 has already extended coverage for 10 years, 150,000 miles on other vehicles with this same tranny, so it's incomprehensible the 2013 Mustang isn't covered as well.
