Total loss of power, transmission 'shifts to neutral' under acceleration

[Michigan Michael]

Just wondering if anyone else has been having the same issues, or knows anything. Just picked up my '21 on Friday, and on Monday, and today, Tuesday, under light to moderate acceleration, the truck 'shifts to neutral', and I lose all power. Service transmission/4WD system message on Ford Pass, service engine icon on dash. Truck will rev, but won't go anywhere. I park, and it won't go into park for 3-5 seconds, shift back to Drive, or Reverse, and it gives a "Selected gear will be available at lower RPMS" but it won't shift into any gear at all. I have to shut it off, and restart the truck to get it to do anything.

First time, I chalked it up to a fluke, this time, I'm pissed, and have message to my sales guy. Will call him in the morning, but curious if others have any similar issues.

Take it to service----something is not right for sure

Good morning, Michael. Would you please send us a private message with your VIN and mileage so we can look into the Transmission issue for you? I'd love to help you sort this out so you can get back to driving your F-150 carefree!

My local dealership is trying to schedule it for dropping it off, they have no idea what it could be.

Some plug or sensor is not in all the way I bet…so much tech in these things. Sorry you’re dealing with that on your new truck I’d be rather upset as well. Hopefully it’s a quick fix and you can get back to enjoying the new ride.
