Do you have a Ford F-150 from 2017 to the current production year with a 10R80 10-speed transmission — and have you experienced problems with it? If so, you may be just one of many vehicle owners in the same situation.
Following on lawsuits in the U.S., in April a Canadian class action lawsuit was filed in Vancouver against Ford over allegations of transmission failures.
According to the legal firm behind the suit, there are reports of owners experiencing a number of different types of problems.

Croptimistic’s SWAT Cam has mapped more than one million acres, using sprayer-mounted cameras to generate crop and weed maps that support in-season analysis and future management decisions.
Those include “unintended lunging when shifting from park to drive, shimmying and shuddering while in motion, difficulty shifting gears, premature wear of clutch plates and transmission components and sudden gearshift that has not been initiated by the driver.”
Originally, the 10R80 was the result of a joint engineering effort between Ford and GM. Each brand now manufactures its own version at its own assembly plants. The lawsuit applies only to Ford.
The 10R80 is also used in Ford’s Mustang, Ranger, Expedition and Lincoln Navigator.
The law firm handling the case has an information page online.
