Description of the problem | While driving across oak island 2 lane bridge at approx 45 mph, my edge started revving at a high rpm, one loud clunk & car was still running, but lost all transmission. I tried to shift in another gear, but no power transfer. Traffic was heavy & shoulder was small. Drifted to stop in shoulder & called 911. Police came & protected my vehicle which was in an extremely bad position. I had nowhere to go if i wanted to move to a safer position. I had to wait in vehicle until police came. It was sunday, tow truck operator was on call. All total i was in that location for more than an hour. Had car towed to local mechanic who diagnosed it to be shattered flywheel at least. Probably more damage, but recommended to have it serviced at a ford dealership due to their internal service bulletins noting this issue. Bulletin #19-2236 8/6/2019 |
