Consumer Description

TRANSMISSION STOP WORKING IN MIDDLE OF BUSY INTERSECTION DURING RUSH HOUR. I WAS TURNING LEFT, CAR WAS STATIONARY WAITING FOR TRAFFIC TO PASS. THANKFUL I THINK IT QUIT IN NEUTRAL ALTHOUGH DASHBOARD WAS BLACK & GEAR SHIFT WOULD NOT LOCK INTO ANY GEAR; COULD BE PUSHED INTO CORNER BUSINESS PARKING LOT. IT WAS FIXED BUT NEVER COMPLETELY BETTER NOR DID I FEEL COMPLETELY SAFE. I HAD 2 CLUTCH REPLACEMENTS, WHICH WERE ALSO FIXED & PAID BY THEM. FORD DEALER REPLACE SOME RECALL ON SIDE DOORS, BUT NEVER FIXED THE RECALL ON FUEL TANK, NEVER INFORMED THAT THEY EVER GOT PART IN AS LETTER STATED.
