[QUOTE="RaptorNewbie, post: 1643600, member: 20437"] I have a 2017 Raptor and I have owned it new since Dec 2016. I have experienced issues with the transmission fluid about 5 times now and it is always when I am on a road trip or long drive. The vehicle spudders which I have now learned that its the Limp Mode kicking in. It usually results in trans fluid spraying out from underneath and the dealers fix is to top off the fluids but apparently this truck is extremely sensitive to overfilling as much as being under filled. In the past, I can usually get by but last week I took an 11 hour road trip from CA to Utah and it decided to peter out 30 miles from Vegas. The trans gauge turned on and showed a temp reading of 256, limp mode started and an orange wrench symbol popped up. It was 113 degrees outside but I turned off the A/C and slowed to 60mph to get myself to civilization. I was able to contact a Ford dealer in Vegas that took the car in but their only fix was to clean the undercarriage, verify fluid level which it took 2 quarts and replace oil pan gasket. I was able to continue driving with no further issues but now I feel like its just unreliable on road trips. Anyone else experience this? [/QUOTE]
