'14 Titanium Transmission

Hi Folks -

 

I have a 2014 Titanium FWD with approximately 12k on the odometer. Owned it nearly 18 mos without a single issue or regret - and unlike many of the complaints my gas mileage has been fantastic, averaging ~34mpg highway and ~26 city.

 

Over the last few months, though, I've noticed that the transmission has started shifting really hard. It doesn't appear to be slamming or slipping however you can feel a jolt each time it goes into/out of gear. More so I've found in the 3-4 shift and sometimes on other gears. It doesn't appear to be limited to when the transmission is cold/warm or anything else. I have an 04 Jeep Liberty that shifts smoother if that tells you something!!!!

 

I made an appointment at my dealer to get the steering bolt taken care of in a few weeks and was wondering if anyone else had come across this as well as if there were any thoughts on what to expect with the dealer since I did tell them and they are supposed to take a look

 

Thanks in advance -

Hi webibeay,

 

Heading to your dealer is always a great first step. I'll be happy to check into some additional assistance; what's your mileage?

You should try another dealership? Care to name who you are dealing with? I want to look up reviews on them. The 6F35 transmission is well known for issues, sometimes even this early.

 

Here is a list of Ford/Lincoln shops that may be of assistance to you:

BTW, I would also check the state of the car battery, it may be in weak health, which can contribute to the appearance of engine/transmission problems. Even if the car is garaged. Any aftermarket equipment like alarms/stereo systems, do you leave anything plugged into the power points?
