Shortly after buying this truck used, it started shifting hard from first to second. After having the transmission recall done, it got worse. Had it back to the dealer three times and they finally said there wasn't anything they could do. I took the truck to a tranny shop and had the fluid and filter changed. It still shifts hard from first to second but not as often. The guy that did the service said it's common and has seen lots of f150's do this. The only fix is changing the valve body but it's no guarantee. After some research, it seems there's lots of common problems with F-150's that Ford doesn't fix. For the best selling truck in the world, that's pretty disappointing.
Update from Nov 9, 2021: Finally took the truck to another dealership where they found the problem. A bad shift solenoid and plastic spacer block. (I think between the valve body and pump) seems to have fixed the problem. Still a little hard between 1st and 2nd but it's very rare a it's definitely not as bad as it used to be.
