NHTSA Complaint #10460910 — 2008 FORD EDGE

MY FORD EDGE HAS JERKED AND JUMPED A FEW TIMES BUT WAS TOLD THAT NOTHING WAS WRONG WITH IT. WELL ON FRIDAY JUNE 01, 2012 I TRIED TO PUT CAR INTO GEAR AND IT DID NOT WANT TO GO, IT STARTED JERKING AND JERKING. THEN IT STARTED GOING, LIGHTS STARTED GOING OFF SUCH AS THE WRENCH, TIRE PRESSURE, AND THEN ODOMOTER DROPPED TO ZERO AND IT SAID DATA ODOMOTER ERROR. THE NEXT DAY I TURNED THE CAR ON AND WAS MAKING A LOUD WHINING NOISE. I TOOK THE CAR TO GULF COAST FORD IN ANGLETON, TEXAS ON SATURDAY JUNE 02, 2012 AND THEY CALLED MY HUSBAND WEDNESDAY JUNE 06TH AND TOLD HIM THAT THEY HAD TO TAKE THE TRANSMISSION APART. SAID THEY HAD THREE CARS LAST WEEK WITH THE SAME PROBLEM AND THEY CURRENTLY HAD ONE WITH SAME PROBLEM RIGHT NEXT TO MINE AND THEY SAID THEY ARE NOT SURE WHY THIS IS HAPPENING. FORD HAS A SERIOUS PROBLEM WITH THIS CAR AND IT NEEDS TO BE FIXED. MY CAR IS AT 93,500 MILES AND THE TRANSMISSION SHOULD NOT BE GOING OUT ALREADY. I WISH THEY WOULD RECALL THIS CAR COMPLETELY. I AM READY TO GET RID OF IT. *JS
