Consumer Description

I OWN A 2004 FORD TAURUS SES V6 WITH AN AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION. I DROVE TO WORK WITH NO WARNING SOUNDS, SMELLS, OR WARNING LIGHTS, AND IT DROVE PERFECTLY. I ATTEMPTED TO GO TO LUNCH, AND THE VEHICLE STARTED JUST FINE, BUT WOULDN'T SHIFT INTO ANY GEARS/REVERSE ECT. I HAVE RESEARCHED ONLINE AS WELL AS THE TRANSMISSION SHOPS, AND THIS IS A KNOWN PROBLEM. AS FAR AS I KNOW SO FAR THE FORD FREESTAR HAS THE SAME ISSUE & A CLASS ACTION WAS FILED & THEN FORD FOLLOWED UP WITH A RECALL. PLEASE DO SOMETHING ABOUT THIS! I HAVE FILED A COMPLAINT WITH FORD WITH NO ACKNOWLEDGEMENT OR RESOLUTION. I FEEL SICK TO BE OUT SO MUCH MONEY FOR A KNOWN PROBLEM. OF COURSE I DO FEEL LUCKY I WASN'T DRIVING WHEN IT HAPPENED LIKE MANY OTHERS. FORD SHOULDN'T BE ABLE TO TURN A BLIND EYE TO THIS! *TR
