NHTSA Complaint #10763391 — 2010 FORD TAURUS

I BOUGHT THIS CAR USED BUT AFTER RESEARHING THE VIN I FOUND THAT THE PREVIOUS OWNER HAD THE SAME ISSUES I AM HAVING. THE CAR WHILE DRIVING WILL LOSE POWER AND THE TACH WILL SHOW A RPM DROP IN SOME CASES OF ALMOST 1000 RPM. THE CAR WILL LOSE POWER AND AT TIMES AND THE TACH WILL SHOW THE RPM JUMPING ALL OVER THE PLACE LIKE THE COMPUTER DOESN'T KNOW WHAT TO DO. ONCE I TAKE MY FOOT OFF THE ACCELERATOR AND PUT IT BACK THE CAR WILL START TO ACT OK BUT AT TIMES I WILL HEAR A CLUNK FROM THE UNDER THE CAR, THE TRANSMISSION GOING INTO GEAR. THESE ISSUES OCCUR AT VARIOUS SPEEDS, FROM CITY DRIVING TO HIGHWAY. FORD DOESN'T SEEM TO BE ABLE TO FIX THIS AS WELL AS CARMAX.
