FORD RANGER 2023 POWER TRAIN

in normal drive mode the transmission downs shifts thru the gears and skips from 3 to 1. becuase of that skip it feels like you got rear ended by another car. if your not prepared for it you could let off the brakes which could cuase you to hit the person in front.  in sport mode it downshifts thru all the 10 gears properly.

Transmission. Hesitates from a stop to highway speeds and hard downshift upon stoppingâ¦either controlled or emergency stop. Seems hard to find a gear. Indecisive acceleration. I took it back to Ford and they drove it and said they could not replicate my complaint. No one has inspected it except when I took it back to my dealership. No warning lamps or issues. There is a definite problem with the shifting and clunking of this transmission. It hesitates & makes a hard noise when stopping. Iâm [XXX] and have always bought Fords. This one needs fixed!
