Consumer Description

I HAD JUST GOTTEN OF THE INTERSTATE WHEN MY 2006 FORD FREESTAR WOULD NOT DRIVE. I COASTED IN A PARKING LOT. THIS IS A VERY BUSY STREET. THE WOULD NOT DRIVE WITHOUT ANY WARNING OR ANY LIGHTS ON THE DASH. THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT IS STILL NOT ON. I CALLED A MECHANIC AND HE SAID THAT THEY JUST FIX A VAN LIKE MINE AND IT WAS THE TORQUE CONVERTER AND IT WILL COST 975.00 TO FIX IF THIS IS THE PROBLEM. THIS IS THE SECOND FORD MINI VAN I HAVE HAD THE FIRST ONE I HAD IT FOR 3 DAYS AND IT CAUGHT FIRE 3AM THIS WAS A FORD WINDSTAR. I HAD NO COMPENSATION FOR IT I EVEN HAD TO COME UP WITH AN ADDITIONAL DOWN PAYMENT BECAUSE THE INSURANCE COMPANY ONLY COVERED THE VALUE OF THE CAR NOT WHAT I BOUGHT IT FOR. FORD WILL NEVER GET MY BUSINESS. *TR
