Consumer Description

I HAVE A 2002 FORD EXPLORER AND THE OVER DRIVE LIGHT STARTED FLASHING AND THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT IS ON AND THE TRANSMISSION STARTED SLIPPING FROM 2-3 GEAR AND I FOUND OUT WITH MY 2YR AND 3YR KIDS IN THE CAR IF I NEED TO PULL OUT ON TO A HIGHWAY WITH CARS COMING THE SUV DON'T WANT TO DO SO AND WILL REV UP AND MIGHT SLAM INTO GEAR WHEN YOU LET OFF THE GAS. I LOVE MY EXPLORER GREAT FAMILY CAR BUT WITH THIS PROBLEM I WILL NOT HAVE MY KIDS IN IT AT ALL. AND NOT KNOWING IF IT WILL MAKE IT OR NOT. FORD DO SOMETHING ABOUT THIS. IM NOT THE ONLY ONE. *TR
