Consumer Description

THIS COMPLANT IS DIRECTED AT FORD MOTOR COMPANY,AFTER ALOT OF RESEARCH ON THE INTERNET AND TALKING TO TRANSMISSION SHOPS IT IS A ON GOING PROBLEM WITH THE FORD TRANSMISSION.I FEEL IT IS WRONG FOR A MAJOR COMPONENT LIKE THE TRANSMISSION TO GO OUT ON A 1998 AUTO. IT IS EVEN WORSE TO STILL BE PAYING ON IT.I CONTACTED BOTH THE DEALER AND FORD MOTOR COMPANY AND THEY COULD CARE LESS.WITH ALL THE PROBLEMS WITH THE TRANSMISSIONS THERE SHOULD BE A RECALL OR AND OFFER TO OFSET THE COST JUST LIKE WHAT THEY OFFERED FOR THE 91-95 CARS WITH THE 3.8 ENGINE AND COVER THIER MISTAKES IN DESIGN.ANY ADVISE WOULD BE HELPFUL. SIGNED KEVIN ROBINSON. NLM
