Description of the problem | Vehicle has bad issues with the transmission shutters lurches and bucks. Ford will only warranty transmission slippage below 30% throttle any slippage above 30% is not covered by any warranty. This is safety hazard when pulling into traffic. And does not make for a very nice to drive car. No other ford transmission has that poor of standard. Slippage less than 250 rpm [per event] or over 31% throttle is still a broke car but ford wont fix it. |
