Consumer Description

2004 LINCOLN AVIATOR GEARS WERE SLIPPING AND WOULD NOT SHIFT; HAD IT CHECKED AND WAS TOLD THE TRANSMISSION WAS FAILING. 2 DAYS LATER WE HAD TO HAVE IT TOWED TO THE SHOP BECAUSE IT WAS STUCK IN "NEUTRAL". HAD TO REPLACE THE TRANSMISSION AT ONLY 63,000 MILES. NEVER HAD A TRANSMISSION FAIL WITH ONLY 63K MILES, ALL PREVENTATIVE MAINTENANCE IS KEPT UP ON OUR VEHICLE. LOUD NOISE AT STARTUP AND A/C DOES NOT WORK, I BELIEVE IT IS THE CLUTCH. NO HELP FROM FORD EVEN THOUGH THERE ARE MULTIPLE COMPLAINTS OF TRANSMISSION/POWER TRAIN PROBLEMS. ALSO, READ THAT THE EXPLORER WAS RECALLED FOR THE SAME PROBLEM AND THAT THE EXPLORER AND AVIATOR ARE BUILT WITH MANY OF THE SAME PARTS, HOWEVER, NO RECALL ON THE AVIATOR? *TR
