Description of the problem | I just bought the car in march 2017 and we took it on a trip to the beach. Almost there the car started jumping into gear when we took off at the red light. They started getting closer and more harder at each stop so we stopped at a store to check it. Theres no dip stick to check the trany with so we thought it might of got hot even though we stopped often. It seemed to help then it started doing it again after some time. We had already paid for the hotel so we went on and stayed with out going many places for fear of not getting back home. On the way home it still did the same but not on the interstate. Seems it only did it at stops and starts in towns at lights and stop signs. The ford company has had my car in the shop since i got back home and ive made the first payment with 2 weeks driving out of it. They say it needs a new transmission, but by the car fax paper it was just replaced a month ago . Its gonna be another month before i get it back, because they have to order it. Just hope i don't have to go through this any more. Love the little suv, just hate all this trouble i'm having out of it |
