2020 Aviator Transmission goes out at 71k Miles

[peterk9]

Hello - came here to read about 2020 Aviator transmissions. We have the same issues with harsh shuddering at low speed, 130k miles. We appreciate that but was just given a $11,000 quote to fix. Who do we contact to get some assistance. Definitely won’t be purchasing another ford/lincoln, this was a $90,000 vehicle. Any help is appreciated!

Welcome to the Forum.
I believe the phone numbers are shown in the Owner's Manual.

I have 2020 Lincoln Aviator AWD and I have the same transmission problem. It started at around 79,000 miles. I have been told that it is a known problem with many 2020 Aviators and Ford Expeditions. The Lincoln and Ford dealerships in the Central Texas area are so busy it takes 2 weeks to get an appointment to diagnose the problem and another 2 to 6 weeks to fix it! Non-dealership service departments have quoted $9,000 to replace the transmission with a new one ( not rebuilt but factory new with a complete warranty) . I am wondering if others are getting similar quotes or are getting repairs that do not require a new transmission
