Consumer Description

BOUGHT THE CAR IN 2008 W/ 65,000 MILES. WITHIN A FEW MONTHS OF PURCHASE NOTICED VERY VIOLENT UPSHIFTS WHILE ON THE FREEWAY AND OCCASIONALLY THE CAR WOULD SLIP INTO NEUTRAL WHILE TRAVELING @ 65-70MPH (VERY SCARY). TOOK CAR TO DEALERSHIP WHILE UNDER USED CAR WARRANTY AND WAS TOLD NOTHING WAS WRONG AND IT WAS THE WAY I WAS DRIVING. WE STARTED FILING COMPLAINTS WITH FORD BUT THEY WERE OF NO HELP AND THEY HAVE TOLD US THAT THE TRANS NEEDS TO BE REPLACED. TWO YEARS LATER (@75K MILES) THE TRANSMISSION COMPLETELY FAILED WHILE DRIVING (VERY DANGEROUS). TRANS AND TCM MODULE NEEDS TO BE REPLACED (APPROX: $5000) AND NOT EVEN SURE IF THAT WILL FIX THE PROBLEM. *TR
