Took our 2019 Max Platinum in at about 38k miles for harsh shifting (primarily 3rd and 5th), huge pause when engaging 5th in the AM, in July. Have ESP warranty. Dealer used the TSB that was out at the time and re-flashed the trans. It was better for a day or two, then back to the same old harsh shifting. Actually seemed like downshifting when coming to a stop was worse.
Took it back in last night at 41k and asked if we could skip the valve body replacement and just rebuild the trans, as I don't have time to keep running this back and forth to the dealer, which is an hour from home.
Dealer called this AM and said they're rebuilding the trans under TSB 23-2250, CDF drum failure. I've got a loaner from the dealer, so we're good. I'll keep everyone posted on this, I'd rather have a new factory trans, but am glad that they were at least able to skip the valve body and get it done. Here's hoping that a) parts are available and b) they do a good job on it.
Between the 10R80 CDF drum issues and the cam phasers, warranty costs have to be absolutely out of sight at Ford........ absolutely love the vehicle, hope that it's good to go after this.
