Description of the problem | The vehicle jerk and lunges at different speeds. Shifts hard during highway driving and lunges and jerks very violently during take-off at random times. This vehicles has been taken back to the ford dealership for repair on four different occasions with no success for repair. Even more aggravating is that when taken to the dealership for repair they expect you to replace the gas in the loaner which is not even close to as nice of a car that you are having repaired yet they do not replace your gas out of your car. Very frustrating. The mechanics act like they have no idea what is wrong with the vehicle and have tried various things to fix it to no avail. Sometimes the vehicle jerks so hard it gives you whiplash. |
