Description of the problem	Transmission jerks and hesitates when pulling out since the day i bought it 2 yrs ago. Talked to the dealer and was told it was normal. Had a computer update done and still the the same. As of recently the problem got worse. I was at a red light in the middle of a busy intersection when the light changed i pulled out and then the transmission would not shift and i was stuck sideways in the middle of the intersection with oncoming traffic. I shut the car off and restarted it and was able to get off the road then it did the same thing again. I again shut it off and let it sit for about 15 min tried it and was able to make it back home. Since then it has happened a few more times with the same result. I have researched and seen alot of other people are having similar problems and ford is aware and yet nothing . My factory warranty has expired and i cannot afford repair costs that according to reports does not completely fix the problem anyway nor can i afford to replace the car because i owe more than it is worth. Any information or help would be greatly appreciated.
