Consumer Description

I WAS PULLING OUT ONTO A MAIN HIGHWAY AND MY CAR JERKED AS I PRESSED ON THE ACCELERATOR AND NEXT THING I KNOW I AM IN THE MIDDLE OF THE HIGHWAY AND MY CAR DOES NOT GO FORWARD, JUST STOPS AND STILL RUNNING WHILE TWO HUGE TRUCKS ARE COMING FROM BOTH DIRECTIONS, THINKING QUICKLY, I THOUGHT THE CAR MAY HAVE REVERSE. WELL, THANK GOD IT DID AND REVERSE I WENT. I HAD TO DRIVE HOME IN REVERSE AND CALL CHAPMAN FORD TO COME AND PICK IT UP. MY VEHICLE IS STILL THERE AND THEY HAVE TO TAKE OUT THE WHOLE TRANSMISSION. I AM VERY SHAKEN AND AM TOO SCARED TO GET BACK INTO THE CAR. I HAVE NEVER FELT LIKE THIS BEFORE AND HAVE ALWAYS BOUGHT A FORD FOR SAFETY REASONS, BUT THIS HAS MADE ME FEEL VERY, VERY UNSAFE. *TR
