Consumer Description

MY CAR'S TRANSMISSION HAS NOT WORKED CORRECTLY SINCE I PURCHASED IT NEW IN 2014. THE SALESMAN TOLD ME THAT THE JERKING WHILE ACCELERATING WAS THE COMPUTER GETTING USED TO MY DRIVING STYLE AND WOULD STOP AFTER A FEW WEEKS. THAT NEVER HAPPENED. IT JERKS, STUTTERS, STALLS, SURGES WITHOUT WARNING. IT'S DANGEROUS. I'VE HAD NEAR MISSES AND HE. I PULL OUT INTO TRAFFIC AND IT STALLS OUT. DRIVING AT LOW RPM IS THE WORST. THIS CAR IS A HAZARD AND SHOULD HAVE BEEN RECALLED YEARS AGO. BETTER YET FORD SHOULD NEVER BEEN ALLOWED TO CONTINUE TO SELL CARS WITH THE DPS6 TRANSMISSION AFTER THEY KNEW IT WAS DEFECTIVE. I WANT TO MAKE IT CLEAR THAT THIS PROBLEM IS ONGOING
