Consumer Description

2001 LS LINCOLN TRANSMISSION I BELIEVE MY LINCOLN LS IS UNSAFE TO DRIVE DO TO THE FACT THAT THE SHIFTING IS ERRATIC. THIS CAR HAS ACTUALLY CUT OUT ON ME ON THE HIGHWAY ALL LIGHTS POWER STEERING EVERYTHING AND GAVE ME AN ERROR MESSAGE. THE MESSAGE STATED GEAR SHIFTING ERROR. I BOUGHT AN AUTOMATIC TO ELEVATE MY BAD SHIFTING AND NOW MY AUTOMATIC DOES NOT KNOW HOW TO SHIFT GEARS C'MON!!!!!!MY DEALER DOESN'T KNOW WHAT TO DO WHY ARE THEY REGISTERED AS A LINCOLN DEALER IF THEY CANT FIX LINCOLNS. THIS CAUSED AN ACCIDENT WHEN OUR DAUGHTER DROVE IT ON WET ROADS. THIS ALSO CAUSED MY WIFE TO LOOSE CONTROL ON A SNOW COVERED HIGHWAY. VERY LUCKY IT STOPPED AND SHE REGAINED CONTROL. I PERSONALLY THOUGHT IT CANT DO SUCH A THING BUT IT ALSO DONE IT TO ME ON DRY PAVEMENT AND CAN REALIZED HOW BAD IT CAN BE ON WET OR SNOW CONDITIONS. *TR
