Automatic Transmission Control Module problems of the 2019 Ford Ranger

The transmission "bucking" during speed acceleration. This causes the vehicle to DE-accelerate before accelerating to desire speed. Problem: programimg of the pcm for the transmission. According to the data collected on the Ford forum this problem affects all Ford Ranger for 2019 models.

2019 Ranger went into limp mode in traffic at the worst possible time. Error code appeared and referred to transmission fault at roughly 38k. Was taken to Ford and I was told pcm just needed updating. By 45k the transmission was right back to shifting rough with sudden shifts jerking the truck. Called Ford to say hey it’s not right still. It’s continuing to downshift from 10th gear at 65mph instantly down to 3rd gear nearly ripping the transmission out. Every Ford dealership within 3. 5hrs from me all told me the same thing. “we are told to say it’s normal for the 10r80 to do hard shifts. Ford knows they are a problem but want issue a recall, the only thing you can do it blow up the transmission while your under 60k warranty so they have no choice but to replace it. ” now at 80k I’m screwed and have to spend nearly 8k to fix the transmission Ford said was fine.

My vehicle transmission skips second gear going from gear 1 to gear 3 when accelerating from a stopped position. Issue cause jerking and a clunk when gear catches. When this happens, vehicle will temporarily stall until gear catches putting driver and passengers at risk of collision if turning at intersection, proceeding through 2-way stop intersection, or on hills/ on train tracks. My vehicle has never displayed warning lights on the dash. I had the vehicle inspected at a Ford dealer. Dealership was able to replicate the issue. Dealership related they flashed the tcm, but it did not resolve the issue and recommended replacement of transmission or rebuild. Vehicle is at 62,000 miles and is barely out of warranty. Researching the issue will lead to the Ford Ranger forum, where multiple other people are experiencing transmission issues with this vehicle.
