- F150Transmission Failure - Reverse No Forward Gears - This is a know failure with the 2005 and newer 4R75W tranys in the F150. The forward gear drum fails due to design defect by Ford with respect to slot cut in the drum for the snap ring. Jasper Engines & Transmissions explains the problem and they have produced a replacement unit that they use in their re-built transmissions. Look at video for •Ford 4R70W/4R75W Heavy Duty Forward Drum Update

I never had any symptoms that the transmission was about to go out, it just happened I wasn't even towing anything and just like that it needed to be overhauled(1,650). I was never told about this problem or possibility of replacement, of course not why would the seller tell you something like that, that is why I have taken the time to tell everyone to do the research before you proceed to buying a ford or any vehicle in this matter, this could save you a lot of money and frustrations!!!!
