Consumer Description

While driving, the clutch is beginning to slip in from 1st- 3rd gears. I feel as though this could be a safety issue if the transmission gives out all together in traffic. This problem has been inspected and confirmed by manufacturer. There were no warning signals prior to the failure and they began to appear around 130,000 miles. Ford has a recall for the SAME models with the EXACT same issue (recall number 18s07), but not with my 2.5 L engine. This seems completely unfair as I have the EXACT same transmission and obviously it will have the EXACT same issues. Therefore, I would like a total coverage for the repairs as it has already been identified as a manufacturing issue of Ford.
