It's a type of car problem that’s not hard to notice. Ford F-150 transmission problems can present themselves as shifting delays, grinding when accelerating, a feeling of shakiness, or whistling noises or a burning smell coming from beneath the hood. If you ignore Ford F-150 transmission issues you might notice your fuel economy decrease or find that your F-150 isn’t working at all.

Questions About 2013 Ford F-150’s Transmission

  • What happens if I "ride" my Ford's brakes? Riding the brakes (keeping your foot lightly pressed on the brake pedal for a long time) can lead to transmission issues over time. Remember that when you’re driving down winding roads, and opt for engine braking when possible.
  • What can I tow in a Ford? Think twice before volunteering to tow your friend's moving trailer, no matter how small it is. The added load can mess with your transmission system if it exceeds your F-150’s towing capacity. Always consult your owner's manual before towing or hauling something.
  • How often does my F-150 transmission fluid need to be checked? Caring for your Ford F-150’s transmission fluid is a great way to help it perform. A general rule of thumb is to have your transmission fluid checked and changed about every 30,000 to 60,000 miles, but that timeline can change if you're hard on your Ford. Leaks or low transmission fluid are easy to spot and affordable to repair.
  • Can Ford F-150 transmission fluid leak? Yes. Ford F-150 transmission fluid can leak over time and potentially cause transmission issues. Worn or damaged seals, a loose or damaged transmission pan, a cracked transmission housing, faulty transmission cooler lines, or an overfilled transmission could cause transmission fluid leaks.
