Consumer Description

FOR AT LEAST THE LAST THREE YEARS THE VEHICLE EXPERIENCED SHORT PERIODS OF NON-STARTING. IN OCTOBER, 2019 THE CAR WOULD NOT START PERIOD. PREVIOUS IT WAS ABLE TO START AFTER MOVING THE SHIFTER FROM PARK TO DRIVE AND BACK AND SOMETIME USING THE REMOTE START. THE OCTOBER ISSUE REQUIRED TOWING TO NORTH COUNTY FORD IN VISTA, CA. AFTER FIVE DAYS, IT WAS DETERMINED THE TRANSMISSION HAD FAILED AND NEEDED REPALCEMENT. AFTER REPLACEMENT THE NON-STARTING ISSUE RESOLVED, BUT IN THE LAST THREE WEEKS IT HAS RETURNED. I HAVE NOT HAD ANY ISSUES WHILE THE VEHICLE IS MOVING.
