1 Vehicle Speed Control problem

Failure Date: 12/03/2025

While driving my 2022 Ford Ranger, the transmission failed to engage drive. I started my morning as usual, letting the vehicle warm up and the rpms settle before leaving my neighborhood. As I pulled onto the main road, the truck began acting strangely—I noticed it wasn’t accelerating normally and felt constant gear shifting without gaining speed. To avoid blocking traffic, I pulled over at a local store and shifted into park. When I tried to shift back into drive, the transmission would not engage. Pressing the gas felt like the truck was in neutral. I turned the vehicle off for about a minute and restarted it, but the same issue occurred. I then called my local dealer, who suggested using sport mode and manually selecting gear 2. This worked, and I was able to drive home safely since I was only about a minute away. After that, I contacted the warranty company and arranged for a tow. Component/system: transmission safety risk: loss of acceleration on a main road created a risk of collision with other vehicles. Reproduced/confirmed: unknown until December 15th if the issue has been reproduced or confirmed by the dealer. Inspection: dealer is scheduled to inspect the vehicle on December 15. Warning lamps/messages: none appeared prior to the failure. None after. Until repairs are completed, I am without a vehicle and will only be reimbursed for a rental while repairs are worked on.
