Consumer Description

MY 2005 FORD FREESTYLE IS SURGING AFTER I PUT IT IN REVERSE AS TO BACK UP IN THE PARKING LOT. IT LUNGES VERY FAST AND FORCIBLY SO THAT IF I DO NOT HAVE A STRONG HOLD ON THE BRAKE IT WILL MOVE. IT ALSO HAPPENS IN FORWARD POSITION IF I AM NOT MOVING OR MOVING VERY SLOWLY SAY IN A PARKING LOT OR DRIVE THRU. THE AIR CONDITIONING AND OR TURNING SEEMS TO MAKE IT WORSE. IT DOES NOT HAPPEN EVERYTIME BUT HAPPENED VERY FORCIBLY THE OTHER DAY. I AM VERY CONCERNED THAT IT WILL LUNGE OUT OF CONTROL AND HIT SOMETHING OR SOMEBODY. I HAVE CHILDREN IN MY CAR OFTEN INCLUDING MY INFANT. IT SEEMS TO ME TO BE SOME SORT OF SAFETY DEFECT WHICH NEEDS TO BE LOOKED INTO. *TR
