Description of the problem | I have had issues with my transmission for awhile. I noticed it first when going up steeper hills if i have to come to a stop and continue up the hill the transmission would jump as if it couldnt get into gear. Then when traveling on the freeway through the mountains we were driving on cruse control when out of no where the rmp's jumped up to 5000+ i had to get the car off of cruse control and try and help it to stick back into gear. I now have taken my car into the penske ford dealership and they are saying that there was a recall on the transmission, but when doing the diagnostic on in they found the transmission control modual was covered under the warrenty but the clutch also needed to be replaced but that wasnt under the warrenty. But there is a recall on my transmission! And i should not have to pay 2k+ to get my clutch fixed, when my clutch is a part of my transmission. I have seen that there is many lawsuits about this, and i hope i dont have to do that. |
