Consumer Description

THE TRANSMISSION ON MY 1999 FORD TAURUS GAVE WAY UNEXPECTEDLY WHILE I WAS DRIVING THE CAR DOWN MY ROAD. IT JUST STOPPED RIGHT IN THE MIDDLE OF THE ROAD. IF I HAD BEEN GOING AT A HIGH RATE OF SPEED ON A MAJOR HIGHWAY, THIS COULD HAVE CAUSED AN ACCIDENT. *AK THERE HAD BEEN NO WARNING SOUNDS OR LIGHTS TO INDICATE THAT THERE WAS ANY KIND OF PROBLEM . I HAD TO HAVE THE CAR TOWED TO AAMCO FOR TRANSMISSION WORK, AND PAID $2200.00 IN REPAIR COSTS. I ALSO DAMAGED THE FRONT END OF MY CAR AND MY FENCE TRYING TO ROLL THE CAR INTO MY DRIVEWAY TO GET IT OUT OF THE LINE OF TRAFFIC.
