NHTSA Complaint #10298763 — 2002 FORD EXPLORER

THE 2002 FORD EXPLORER HAS A SEVERE TRANSMISSION ISSUE THAT NEEDS TO BE RESEARCHED. MY FORD TRANSMISSION DISSENGAGES WHEN YOU BREAK. THIS IS A DEFECT AND A SAFETY ISSUE. SINCE I DON'T KNOW WHEN THE TRANSMISSION DISENGAGES I WILL REV THE ENGINE (THINKING THE CAR SHOULD GO FORWARD ) AND THE ENGINES REVS THEN AFTER A DELAYED RESPONSE WILL SLAM THE CAR INTO GEAR AND JERK THE CAR FORWARD. THIS JERK COULD CAUSE ME TO HIT SOMETHING OR SOMEONE SINCE I'M NOT EXPECTING THE CAR TO MAKE THAT RESPONSE. THERE ARE A LARGE PEOPLE EXPERIENCING TRANSMISSION PROBLEMS WITH THE 2002 FORD EXPLORER TRANSMISSION (SEE REFERENCE BELOW) I THINK NHTSA SHOULD DO AN INVESTIGATION ON THE ISSUE TO SEE IF THERE IS REALLY A SYSTEMIC ISSUE WITH THE 2002 FORD EXPLORER TRANSMISSION THAT SHOULD BE RECALLED AND POSSIBLE SAFETY ISSUE: REFERENCE: HTTP://WWW.CARCOMPLAINTS.COM/FORD/EXPLORER/2002/TRANSMISSION/ HTTP://WWW.LEMONLAWCLAIMS.COM/2002_FORD_EXPLORER_TRANSMISSION HTTP://WWW.FORDPROBLEMS.COM/EXPLORER/TRANSMISSION-FAILURE.SHTML. *TR
