Description of the problem | Vehicle going on lower gear (1st to 3rd gear) will slip. The transmission will jerk and choke.

Brought it back to ford dealer and they said all test is normal but can't do any other repair to test because i am under warranty and ford don't authorize them to do further repairs. |
