Consumer Description

MY NEW 2012 FUSION'S 6 SPEED AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION, UNDER MEDIUM ACCELERATION, HESITATES FROM 1ST TO 2ND, AND HESITATES & OVER-REVS FROM 2ND TO 3RD UNTIL THE CAR HAS WARMED UP (DRIVEN APPROXIMATELY 10 MILES). I HAVE TAKEN MY CAR BACK TO THE DEALER THREE TIMES AND THEY EACH TIME THEY APPLIED THE SOFTWARE UPDATE, BUT DON'T FIX THE PROBLEM. THE HESITATION AND FLAIR FROM 1-2 AND 2-3 IS AS BAD AS EVER. THIS SHOULD NOT BE HAPPENING TO A CAR WITH 6000 MILES ON IT AND THE LOSS OF ACCELERATION COULD CAUSE AN ACCIDENT. IT APPEARS THAT FORD EITHER CAN'T OR WON'T CORRECT THE PROBLEM. *TR
