Consumer Description

I WAS DRIVING MY CAR ON THE HIGHWAY AND THE RPM INCREASED AND IT STARTED STUDDERING AND EVENTUALLY CUT OFF. TOOK IT TO THE FORD DEALERSHIP AND NOW I NEED A TRANSMISSION. THERE IS AN ACTIVE RECALL REGARDING THE TRANSMISSION BUT ACCORDING TO THEM IT DOESN'T HAVE ANYTHING TO DO WITH THE ISSUES WITH MY CAR. I WOULD THINK ANY ISSUES WITH THE TRANSMISSION WOULD CAUSE MY TRANSMISSION TO GO OUT. THIS IS NOT THE FIRST ISSUE I HAVE HAD WITH THIS CAR. MY ENGINE CAUGHT IN FIRE FOR NO REASON AND HAD TO GET A NEW ENGINE. I HAVE HAD NOTHING BUT ISSUES WITH THIS CAR SINCE THAT TIME.
