New update today. Spoke to the dealership today. they confirm what i told them the sports trac is doing after the new "program"' I am now being told the sports trac with the V8 4.6 is suppose to shift at 6000 rpm at hard throttle (60mph) WOT and they also told me it should go to 8000rpm (80 mph)! When is the 4.6 set up to handle that kind of daily abuse? I guess they couldnt fix the problem so they changed everything so it would not show up to most people? Can you say wore out motor? Oh by the way I can now do burn outs from a stop light if I am not careful. I never could make the sports trac do that before, even when I tried to show off the V8 in it. It barely chirped if I started it in L1' I guess this is the way to not have to due a buy back? Just thought I would give heads up. I am waiting to see what my rep tells me on Wednesday.

Well I am new here, but i have reading your posts for about 3 weeks. I have a 07 Sports Track - Bought 4-17-08. I now have 15040 miles. After two weeks I felt a problem. Many items you guys wrote sound like I wrote them. I got my track back Friday morning after this "NEW Fix" My truck can now spin tires like my 05 GT! But if you punch the gas to pass or get on the interstate to merge it stays in a low gear. The shift points are way too long. Like 5500 to 6000 rpm! Friday I got on the gas to go up the ramp and merge in and i was hitting 6000 rpm and doing 57-60 miles an hour. When I let off the gas the truck sounds like it goes into neutral. I was told it would take several days for the tranny to adjust? My wife could feel the truck pulse while doing 45 on our home road and every once in awhile if feels as though it can't find the right gear. Guess monday I will be talking my "My freindly" Ford Cust. rep (whole nother story) I will let you know what I find out. Any body know when the recall will be listed? I had a hard time finding out I really was not nutts about my sports trac. They kept telling me that was just the way it was for the first few months. I am hoping for a buy back (cross fingers) I would get a 07 f150 if they will help> Other wise I will lose almost 8000$. Any other info would be of great help. Thanks 07alerotaz.
