Consumer Description

BOUGHT THIS CAR AND 2 MILES DOWN ROAD CHECK ENGINE, ABS, AND THE BRAKE AS WELL AS THE OVER DRIVE (ONLY ONE FLASHING) CAME ON. THE CAR GEAR SHIFT LEVER POPS OUT OF GEAR. THE VEHICLE HAS A NEW TRANNY. THE VEHICLE STALLS, AND IS BLOWING TRANNY FLUID. IT HAS HAD THE COMPUTE REPLACEE ON A RECALL. EVERY ISSUE I HAVE FOUND RELATES TO RECALLS, YET FORE TOLD ME NOPE ZERO RECALLS ON THIS EVEN AFTER I SHOWED HIM PROOF OF A RECALL ON THE ENGINE ITSELF. SO RECALLS; 07V156000, 15V606000, 12V005000, AND 04V165000 SOMEHOW DO NOT APPLY? SO I HAVE TO CRASH BEFORE FORD WILLL EVEN LOOK AT THE CAR. IT POPS OUT OF GEAR! CLEARLY AN ABS MALFUNCTION OR NOT?
