NHTSA Complaint #10775412 — 2011 FORD FIESTA

AFTER BEING IN PARK AT A GAS STATION, I GO INTO DRIVE AND START TO GO WHEN THE CARS SHUDDERS, SCREECHES, HALTS, AND THEN LOSES POWER. I WAS ABLE TO START THE CAR AGAIN, BUT WHEN I PRESSED THE GAS THERE IS NO POWER. I TRY TO PUT THE CAR IN PARK, AND THOUGH THE GEAR IS IN PARK AN ALERT COMES UP TELLING ME TO PUT THE CAR IN PARK. CAR WILL NOT GO INTO PARK. KEEPS ROLLING. HAVE TO USE MY EMERGENCY BREAK TO STOP THE CAR. PAID OUT OF POCKET TO HAVE THE CAR TOWED TO THE NEAREST FORD DEALERSHIP. THEY SAID THEY WERE "PRETTY SURE" IT WAS THE TRANSMISSION CONTROL MODULE. 5 DAYS AFTER BRING IT TO THEM I CALL AND FIND OUT THAT THEY HAVE REPROGRAMMED THE TRANSMISSION CONTROL MODULE AND SOMETHING WITH THE CLUTCH. THE PROBLEM IS STILL NOT FIXED. I HAVEN'T EVEN BEEN ABLE TO TALK TO THE MECHANIC PERSONALLY, BUT THE LADY AT THE SERVICE DESK SAID "IT'S REALLY THROWN HIM FOR A LOOP. IT DEFINITELY SEEMS TO BE SOMETHING WITH YOUR TRANSMISSION, BUT DIAGNOSTICS SAYS NOTHING IS WRONG WITH THE CAR". THIS IS GOING TO KILL SOMEONE. PERIOD. IT COULD'VE KILLED MY BOYFRIEND, MY FRIEND, MY UNBORN BABY AND MYSELF. I'M AM FURIOUS WITH FORD. I HAVE READ HUNDREDS OF COMPLAINTS FROM OTHER PEOPLE HAVE THE SAME PROBLEM WITH THE SAME CAR. HOW HAS THIS NOT BEEN RECALLED???
