Description of the problem	The car is unsafe to drive and it has gotten worse since i purchased it new. As i pulled out into traffic the car suddenly lost power requiring me to quickly push the gas peddle to the floor to avoid getting rear-ended. The car only slightly accelerated, then jerked forward into a hard acceleration and sounded like the engine was going to explode. Even though i know about this behavior, (and try to take steps to avoid scenarios like this), the occurrence of this behavior it is very regular, (several times a week), yet erratic and unpredictable, meaning i can not take measure that guarantee it will not happen, nor should i have to. I have spoken with the dealership about this erratic behavior only to be told it will get better as i drive it as the transmission learns my driving habits and will adapt. I have driven many cars and trucks for over 40 years and have never had a problem driving any type vehicle. I can emphatically state that this transmission has not adapted to anything. At all. My concern is that the more miles i put on the car waiting for it to adapt, as per the dealer, the further away i get from being protected by any type lemon law. My basic complaint is that this car is unsafe to drive because of the transmission and it has gotten worse since i purchased it new in february 2015. And, i am told by ford to just drive it because this is normal!?!
