I have a very early production A10 2018 Mustang GT and when I first got it, there was some major lurching and hard, delayed shifts. I found out that the transmission software was weird on the early cars and a new one was sent out to dealers, so I brought my car in and got it updated. The problem went away, well, until a few weeks ago. After using the paddle shifters for about 1 minute, my transmission again started hard shifting and sometimes audibly bonking during hard shifts, as well as a minor (almost tremor) vibration when changing between park, reverse, etc. I am bringing it in again to be looked at, but I also want to know if maybe the transmission fluid recommendation was ever changed by Ford (because I have some thought that I read that somewhere) since some early cars also had low transmission fluid which can also cause a rough transmission.
Also this morning I lightly tapped the brake but then got back on the gas (very lightly, residential area) which caused the car to shift hard into 5th with almost a cracking sound, and shifting back into 5th the rest of the day was hesitant and caused bucking. Not sure what's up with that, Ford.
