    I've got a 2015 Chevrolet 1500 4x4 High Country Crew Cab and at approximately 61500 miles the transmission started to shutter! The dealer was very aware of the problem but quickly let me know that it was out of warranty!! I took it to a recommended transmission shop that did a complete trans fluid flush and refill with the newly recommended Mobil 1 transmission fluid and they also changed the filter and flushed the lines ECT. I was very fortunate because mine had just started to get the shutter! It cost me almost $400 but I've put another 30,000 miles on it with no problems thus far! IMHO, Chevrolet should recall every dang one of the problematic transmissions!! Thanks Kenny

      Recalls happen when it’s the most cost effective option to manage the issue. If it will be out of warranty by the time it fails for the majority of their products a recall isn’t likely. The problem is the manufacturer policies on vehicle ownership. They used to want everyone to pick their vehicles so you would get the best they could provide. Now they want you to choose to buy every 1-5 years so quality must be low.

      Get it tune asap... remove the tc lock on 1sr 2nd and 3rd.... if you ever pull it appart put a triple billet torque converter and again... GET a tune for the transmission it's a must. Add an extra transmission cooler too.. I put the mishimoto one efty expensive but I went from 100°c to max 57°c while towing. Any cooler will do just don't stay with the oem one. 2016 mine gave up at 110k km my 2nd one I manage to push it to 270k before having to open it.

    my wife bought a 2015 escape. after the dealer kept messing up simple things i took over. i pulled the plug on the trans and burned liquid came out. and not much. my thoughts are that in the 81k miles that service had never been done. they told my wife they put a new motor in the car ( it failed 2 days after she brought it home) so i pulled the oil plug. also burned black and less that spec. yeah they totally put a new motor in it. i think its not always a lazy owner. sometimes its a shady big box dealer service center

    I have a '94 F-150 I could have sworn was torque converter shudder because it only seemed to do it under load at certain speeds. I flushed the transmission fluid and found it was very clean. I then checked the spark plugs and they were in really bad condition. I ended up deciding to replace the wires, plugs, ignition coil and distributor, since I didnt know the history of the truck, and ever since then it runs just fine.

    It would probably be a good idea to check for TSB's on this one. We have issues with the map sensors on 2019 Edges, and when it acts up if feels exactly like a transmission problem. Once there's a few miles on them, the trans fluid is never red. I can't guarantee the map sensor is the issue, but most independent shops don't check for bulletins and they just throw a new trans in only to find out later that it just needed a map sensor.
    If you don't have access, the TSB number is 19-2212, and the updated part number is AA5Z-9F479-E.

    Had a friend had the same problem and the dealer gave them the run around until the warranty was out and wanted to replace the converter for 3500.00 . They were able to get it fixed for a $1000. 00 by going to ford and complaining about it . Would like to know what was wrong and how much time it took to fix .

    My brother, little Kenny, first comment is to note that Car Max is not what it once was. It is horrible now with overpriced vehicles that where once they would not even sell a vehicle that has an accident history (this can be checked by using the VIN number and getting a Car Fax (not to be confused with Car Max) or another business that will check by use of the VIN no. for not just accidents but also service history. Sadly, it has become a real crap shoot for a buyer these days, especially an ignorant buyer not having a professional pre-purchase inspection ( for those who don't know better, that is before you sign to buy the car). waiting until you have already signed to purchase the car is generally too late given that most used vehicles come with NO WARRANTY!
    No disrespect to anyone reading this but 'ignorant' buyers or ones that just don't know any better often also fall into the notorious trap of paying for a service agreement as well (another moneymaker for the selling dealer) when if they had done a pre-purchase inspection that what they learn from it that they might not even buy the vehicle. Buying a brand new car is expensive but at least you have a factory warranty. I'm not recommending buying a new vehicle. I recommending that you do your research for such a major purchase decision and that's all,
    Kenny, once again I find you knowledgeable, honest and always looking out for your customer's best interest. I only wish you worked within 5 miles of where I live so that I could bring any and all of my vehicles to you for inspection (including pre-purchase inspections) and service (both scheduled 'severe' service and needed actual repairs)!!
