Explorer hybrid transmission shifting issue

I'm experiencing some odd behavior with my 2022 Ford Explorer Hybrid. It has 69731 km on the clock. Lately, the automatic transmission is acting up. Specifically, I'm noticing implausible shifting, the transmission indicator light is on, and the transmission isn't shifting as expected; it even went into emergency mode a couple of times. I suspect undervoltage could be the culprit. Has anyone encountered something similar?

That sounds frustrating! I had a similar issue with my old Opel Corsa a few years back. The symptoms seem awfully familiar. Was the shifting rough or just…off? Did you notice any specific gear where it was more pronounced?

The shifting is definitely rough, especially between 3rd and 4th gear. It's like it hesitates before finally engaging. With your Corsa, was it a gradual decline, or did it happen suddenly?

Ah, yes, the rough shifting… sounds very familiar! Mine was also most noticeable between gears in the middle of the range. To answer your question, it was pretty sudden, I think. I'd recommend getting it checked by a professional workshop as soon as possible.

Thanks for sharing your experience. I took it to the shop, and it turned out the automatic transmission oil was worn out. The oil replacement cost me 240€.
