 Description of the problemBeginning in 2017, as i was on my way to work and stopped at a stop light on a city street, the light turned green and i pressed the gas pedal. After the rpm meter was passed "2" the car jerked back and slowed down for a few seconds then went back to the previous speed. This continuously happened every time i would press the gas petal to speed up for several days. I took the car in a mechanic shop and my car was no longer jerking back and they found nothing wrong; however, i have the documents from this mechanic stating what was happening at this time. At this time the vehicle was well under 100,000 miles. Again in 2018 i was on my way to work and the same thing began again. The car seemed to lose power for a few seconds every time i would speed up the vehicle. I took it to yet another mechanic shop where they found nothing wrong again. Soon after my car began acting normal again. Finally, in may 2019 the same issue began again. I would press the gas pedal and my car would start to go, then it would jerk back for a few seconds as if losing power, then gain power back and speed up. Also, several times in 2019 i would turn on the car, put the car in drive, press the gas pedal and the vehicle wouldn't move. It seemed to have no power. I then took the vehicle to a third mechanic and they informed of a transmission recall for my year and model car. I was unaware of this recall up until this point and i do not know the recall number. I was a college student and my mail was sent to my home address rather than my college address. This mechanic then rebuilt the vehicle's transmission for $3,000. The mechanic then sent my vehicle to a ford dealership where they replaced the transmission control module for no cost.
