Consumer Description

TODAY (8-9-11) WHILE ENTERING I-95 SB AT GA EXIT 107, I WAS IN THE ACCELERATION LANE TO BLEND WITH TRAFFIC WHEN MY 2004 FORD FREESTAR COMPLETELY LOST ALL FORWARD POWER AND SPEED. THE ENGINE RUNS FINE AND WENT TO IDOL. I WAS ALMOST STRUCK BY A TRACTOR TRAILER, TRYING TO COAST ONTO THE SHOULDER. I/VE BEEN ADVISED THAT FORD'S 2004 FREESTAR HAS A 'TORQUE CONVERTER' PROBLEM (BY THE TOW DRIVER) AND IT SIMPLY STOPS PROVIDING FORWARD MOVEMENT WITHOUT WARNING. ADDITIONALLY THIS VEHICLE DOES NOT PROVIDE ANY POWER-DOOR 'AUTO-STOP' WHEN AN OBSTRUCTION IN THE OPEN DOOR. (IT BRUISED MY ARM TRYING TO CLOSE AND THE PASSENGER HAD TO HELP PULL THE DOOR BACK). *TR
