Auto. Transmition failure on 2001 f350 superduty fords, this is the 4th one that I know of. The transmition fails to shift from 1st to 2nd gear. My truck has 58,000 miles, and I donot pull any heavy loads.ford said the repairs would be at my cost. If they are having so much trouble w/ them why isn't there a recall?
Engine failure in december of 2003 ford covered motor under warranty.transmission failure in feb of 2004. My truck has 37,700 miles on it and ford offered to pay for parts but not labor. I was told I should have bought the extended warranty, which tells me ford only stands behind their vehicles for 36,000 miles. I am very dissapointed.I have found many other ford vehicles same make, model and year with transmission failure. I do not feel I should have to pay for any of the repairs.
