sometimes the gears aren’t displayed on the dash

I believe there is a recall from Ford regarding this issue.

I am having the same issue...just suddenly the 10 numbers disappear. Several times this has happened and I have been able to use the paddles or shift the stick to "M" mode and then back up to D and they came back. Once though I tried all of these tricks and they did not come back for some time...in and out of park several times.



I agree, would like to know why this is happening in the first place.

Are you accidentally hitting the paddles while in automatic or the manual buttons on gear shift?

While in auto, one paddle can be used to lock out gears. The other paddle puts them back. When on 10, the left paddle can be tapped to make numbers disappear from display or put them back.

I tend to grab/rest my right hand on the gear shift a lot. First week, I kept accidentally hitting the manual buttons there and either locking out gears or making numbers disappear from dash. I kept fixing with paddle shifter cause it seriously took me a week to figure out there were buttons on gear shift. I had no clue they were there and I was hitting them.

I'll have to watch for that but even when you use the paddles the display will show an "M" and the number you are locked out at I thought.

recall info

I believe there is a recall from Ford regarding this issue.

And here is the recall:

2017 Ford F-150 Raptor 4WD SuperCab 5.5' Box Recalls and Information | NADAguides

Mine does the same and our Raptors appear to not be included in the scope of that recall.

Mine bland out and I have not touched the shift paddles. It does come back when I hit one of them though.

I think Ford will eventually extend the recall to include our trucks.
