i'm new, just picked up a new F150 XLT 4x4.. and i love it... ive never owned a ford. I thought i've read somewhere in this forum about a 1-2 or 2 -3 hard engauge in gear?.. almost like its slips then slams into gear. Or did i read this wrong.. if not. i'm haveing the same problem.. and looking to see what i can do about it.. I'm assuming the trucks are to new to have any TSB's out there yet. .but i could be wrong.. also has anyone experenced when cranckin .. it does not crank.... you turn the key it acts like its about to crank then dies.. .. happen to me in the parking lot twice yesterday.. cranked again, then it did not turn over... finally after some love talk.. she cranked.. . i'm takin it into the dealer about this and about all the HAIL damange they are going to fix, as i recieved when signing the papers!.. that night!!

thanks guys.. i'm glad to be here!

i had the same problem with mine today. it took 2 or 3 tries before it would start.

i thought i'd felt something with my transmission when it goes from 1-2 but i thought i was imagining it. glad to hear i'm not crazy........

theres also a website called www.infotraxx.com
you have to pay, i think it was 12 dollars for a month. it has all the TSB's listed.

 

thanks guys for all the info!..
