Consumer Description

THE VEHICLE LUNGES WHEN SHIFT LEVER IS MOVED FROM PARK TO DRIVE OR REVERSE UPON STARTING. IT DOES NOT HAPPEN EVERYTIME, BUT WHEN IT DOES HAPPEN, IT IS A MARKED MOVE, ENOUGH TO GO THRU A GARAGE, JUMP A CURB OR HIT A PASSERBY. IT SEEMS TO HAPPEN MORE OFTEN WHEN THE CAR IS STARTED, AND THEN WAITING A FEW SECONDS BEFORE MOVING THE SHIFT (TIME TO PUT ON SEAT BELT). PUT YOUR FOOT ON BRAKE, SHIFT TO GEAR AND WONDER IF IT WILL JUMP OR NOT. IT BECAME NOTICABLE AT ABOUT 65,000 MILES AND HAS BECOME WORSE. THE CAR HAS ABOUT 76,000 MILES ON IT NOW. IT SEEMS OTHER FORD 500 OWNERS ARE EXPERIENCE SIMILAR PROBLEMS. I WOULD HOPE FORD DOES SOMETHING TO RECTIFY THIS ISSUE. *TR
