2017 explorer XLT
I wanted to see if anyone else has this issue with the explorers with the 2.3l ecoboost. My tranny has a delay when putting it into reverse and then it jerks into gear when it does. It has 8700 miles on it and has done it for a while. I already took it to the dealer once for it and they kept it for 2 days and after resetting the computer it seemed fine for a couple days and then back to the same. Its getting really annoying. It also has a slow acceleration when I stomp on the gas, the engine revs high but it doesn't down shift and take off....I usually have to let up on the gas and then go into it again if I need to really get going. Any suggestions or what to suggest to the techs to check? I saw a TSB on 2016's but I am not sure what tranny I have other than the 6 speed, it dealt with replacing some solenoids and cleaning the valve body.
