 Description of the problemTransmission gave out while driving on the highway. Had towed to dealership, who repaired with the same parts. The vehicle repair was completed and broke down with the same issue after driving 50 ft. Until today, the transmission is unpredictable and unsafe, and now the power steering assist went out, luckily i just got off the highway and back to work when this occurred. I've seem numerous reports on both of these issues, and ford wants $2500 to repair the steering, and says they cannot check the transmission until then. They also indicated that they aren't sure if the transmission would be repaired again, and it would depend on how 'bad' it is. This is a completely unsafe vehicle, which i am still paying for, and is unusable at this time, unless i decide to drive it in unsafe conditions. Ford is not concerned about their customers or safety.
