My 2019 Raptor down shifts randomly on the display from 10 gears to other lower random gears for no reason. Has anyone else experienced this problem?

I understand however; the when the gear reduces it locks out as if I was manually shifting myself on the shift knob. There have been times I'm traveling at 70+ mph and I look down and I'm limited to 4th or 5th gear until I manually shift back to having all 10 gears available. This has been happening ever since I purchased the truck and the dealer could not identify the problem.
Ford has a Technical Service Bulletin out that pertained to abrupt downshifts on my GEN1. I don't know if that TSB pertains to GEN2, but it would sure be worth verifying one way or the other.
Ruger, can you share that TSB. I just spent $1700 replacing a valve in my 2014 transmission. It downshifted from 6th to 3rd at 60 mph, then the truck acted like 1-3 gear wasn't available Ford told me the recall for this issue only covered prior years for the Raptor. Now I have a PCM issue for the trans that is going to take another $1440 to fix. For 2013 and older models: Recall #19S07 6R80 "SUDDEN TRANSMISSION DOWNSHIFT POWER TRAIN CONTROL MODULE PROGRAMMING"
Are you having the dealer diagnose it?
It’s extremely unlikely that you had both a valve body and PCM failure at the same time. Sounds like gross misdiagnosis.
Do you have details such as DTCs and the diagnostic steps that were performed? Sounds to me like a lead frame issue causing a loss of speed sensor input to the PCM.
