Consumer Description

WHEN I BOUGHT FIRST BOUGHT MY 2004 FORD TAURUS IT WOULD SHIFT WITH A JERK AND MAKE A BRIEF NOISE. FORD SERVICED IT AND IT WAS BETTER. BUT IT STILL WOULD OCCASIONALLY SHIFT HARD. ABOUT 2 YEARS AGO WAS THE FIRST TIME THAT WHEN I PUT IT IN DRIVE IT DID NOT ENGAGE IN GEAR, I WENT BACK TO PARK AND THEN SHIFTED TO DRIVE AGAIN AND IT DID NOT GO IN GEAR AGAIN. SO I SHIFTED TO LOW TO FINALLY GET IT GO. THEN IT FINALLY WENT TO DRIVE WHEN I SHIFTED AGAIN. IT HAS BEEN DOING THIS OFF AND ON SINCE THEN, ONLY LATELY IT HAS STARTED TO DO IT MORE AND IS SHIFTING WITH A JERK SOMETIMES ALSO. I HAVE BEEN KEEPING UP WITH THE PREVENTATIVE MAINTENANCE, FILTERS, FLUIDS, BELTS, PLUGS, ETC. *TR
