Consumer Description

DPS6 POWERSHIFT. I WAS AT A VERY BUSY BIG INTERSECTION..RIGHT IN THE MIDDLE OF IT THE CAR SLIPS/JERKS LIKE IT PUT ITSELF IN NEUTRAL AND WOULD NOT ACCELERATE AT ALL..A TRANSFER TRUCK WAS COMING AND BARELY GOT STOPPED ALMOST T BONED ME ON DRIVERSIDE WITH MY SON IN THE CAR. PLEASE TELL ME HOW THIS IS NOT A SAFETY CONCERN?? DOES SOMEONE HAVE TO DIE FOR THE NHTSA OR FORD TO TAKE THIS SERIOUSLY?? THIS HAS WENT ON FOR WAY TO LONG FOR NOTHING TO BE DONE ABOUT IT. NO MATTER HOW DANGEROUS IT IS TO ME, MY FAMILY, AND OTHER DRIVERS I HAVE NO CHOICE BUT TO DRIVE IT. IT'S OUR ONLY VEHICLE AND WE STILL OWE 11,000 ON IT AND IT'S ONLY WORTH 3,000. I HAVE TO LEAVE A HOUR EARLY FOR EVERY TRIP BC I KNOW I'M GOING TO BE STUCK ON THE SIDE OF THE RD LITERALLY EVERY 5 MIN...OR WORSE IN THE MIDDLE OF AN INTERSECTION. SOMETHING NEEDS TO BE DONE ABOUT THIS...I AM BEGGING YOU!!!
