Consumer Description
THE CAR SLIPS GEARS WHICH MAKES IT DANGEROUS TO DRIVE UP ANY SORT OF HILL. MY CAR HAS STALLED OUT GOING UP HILLS AND MADE IT DANGEROUS NOT ONLY FOR ME, BUT THOSE AROUND ME. THE CAR ALSO HAS AN INCREDIBLE JERKY MOTION WHEN DRIVING THAT CAN CAUSE THE CAR TO SUDDENLY JERK FORWARD. SOMETIMES WHEN I PUT MY CAR INTO DRIVE OR REVERSE THE CAR WON'T EVEN MOVE. VERY VERY DANGEROUS CAR! FORD ISSUED A RECALL ON PARTS OF THE TRANSMISSION ABOUT 4 YEARS AGO, BUT THIS DID NOT FIX THE PROBLEM. I AM AFRAID TO DRIVE THE CAR LONG DISTANCES OR AROUND TOWN WHERE THERE ARE HILLS. THIS HAS BEEN AN ISSUE EVER SINCE I BROUGHT THE CAR.
