Consumer Description

TRANSMISSION SELF DESTRUCTED AT 60950 MILES. WANTED TO ADD THIS TO YOU LIST OF FAILED WINDSTAR TRANSMISSIONS IN THE HOPE THAT A RECALL MAY SOMEDAY HAPPEN. FORD SEEMS TO KNOW ABOUT THIS PROBLEM BUT WANTS TO DO NOTHING ABOUT IT. I AM OUT $2300.00. THIS WAS THE COST TO HAVE MY TRANSMISSION REBUILT. AT THE PRESENT TIME I HAVE RECIEVED NO FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE FROM FORD. I WILL KEEP TRYING UNTIL I GET THE MONEY I SPENT TO GET MY TRANSMISSION REBUILT BACK, EVEN IF I HAVE TO USE THE LEGAL SYSTEM. THANK YOU FOR YOUR TIME.*AK
