Consumer Description

I WAS DRIVING THE SATURDAY AFTER THANKSGIVING 2007, WAS STOPPED AT A STOP SIGN WENT TO PULL AWAY AND MAKE A TURN THEN CAR STOPPED MOVING. I WAS ON A TWO LANE ROAD, WITH CARS COMING BEHIND ME. I STARTED CAR BACK UP AND PUT INTO GEAR, WOULD NOT MOVE. HAD TOWED TO WORK (SUBARU, LINCOLN, MERCURY OF BEECHMONT). OUR TECH LOOKED AT ON MONDAY AND TOLD NEEDED A TRANSMISSION. FORD L/M WOULD NOT HELP WITH ANY COVER OF THE REPAIR. THE CAR HAD 83,412 MILES AT THAT TIME. I HAD TO PUT A USED TRANSMISSION IN, WHICH IS BAD AND PUT ANOTHER TRANSMISSION IN AND THAT ONE IS BAD BUT DRIVABLE.... I FORD KNOWS THERE IS A PROBLEM THEY SHOULD FIX IT BEFORE SOMEONE GETS HURT OR KILLED. I DID CALL FORD CO AND THE REP WAS NOT PLEASANT AND REALLY DID NOT WANT TO TAKE ME INFORMATION, THEY DID AND NOTHING WAS DONE.. *TR
