A bit out there, but I've a friend who was diving to work, 2006 F150 with a 4R75E transmission.
On the highway and experianced sudden engine redline. No warning, no unexpected noises, vibration, nothing.
Pulled to the side of the road, and has nothing. No drive, no reverse, -- oh, Park works perfectly but there is absolutely no attempt at movement. Fluid level is correct, fluid is still clean, clear and bright red.
Closest Ford dealer is saying total transmission failure, $5400 to repair.
Any ideas on what could fail and cause such a total, complete and instant failure?
