Consumer Description

The transmission was violently jerking when accelerating to get on the interstate. Our Explorer is available for inspection upon request. It was dangerous in that we couldn't have a consistent speed when joining oncoming traffic on the road. The local Ford dealer did confirm the transmission needed replacement. Ford did an inspection on the original transmission and confirmed it was damaged. It was a sudden failure of the transmission and it included a wrench light on the dashboard. We had a rebuilt transmission installed by the local Ford dealer which cost us over $9,400. This is known issue by Ford, especially for the Explorers, but they are not standing behind their powertrains. I contacted Corporate Ford to see about any goodwill, but they were not interested in providing any assistance.
