Consumer Description

2003 FORD TAURUS TRANSMISSION JUST STOPPED PULLING. NO SLIPPING NO PROBLEMS WHAT SO EVER THEN NOTHING. IT ONLY HAS 43K MILES AND I'M NEARLY 80 YRS OLD. I CANNOT AFFORD TO SPEND $2000 ON A REPAIR THAT SHOULD BE REPAIRED AT NO COST BECAUSE THERE SHOULD BE A RECALL WITH ALL OF THE COMPLAINTS I HAVE READ FOR THE SAME PROBLEM. IT IS ODD TO ME THAT MOST RECALLS ARE FOR SOMETHING STUPID LIKE A TAILLIGHT MAY BE PRONE TO LEAKING BUT WHEN IT COMES TO LIFE THREATENING PROBLEMS IT IS OVERLOOKED. IT IS JUST A GOOD THING THAT SHE WASN'T HIT BY SOMEONE SINCE SHE HAD PULLED OUT ONTO THE HIGHWAY AND MADE IT TO HER LANE BEFORE THE TRANSMISSION JUST STOPPED PULLING NOT NOISE, POP OR ANYTHING!! WILL SOMEONE WITH A BACKBONE PLEASE STAND UP!!! *TR
