Description of the problem | I bought a used 2014 ford fusion from our local ford dealership with 34,000 miles on it, one owner, no history of any issues. As soon as i drove off the lot i could feel a hard shift between 2nd and 3rd and the engine revs up to 4500 before falling back down to around 2000. Then it's worse going from 3rd to 2nd when applying the brakes, the car jolts forward and the engine revs high as you apply the brakes. I've had the car for 3 days now and it has the worst transmission i've ever experienced. It's a very uncomfortable drive and i don't feel safe driving it when i know my car is going to shift so hard that the whole jerks forward. I've never been more unhappy with a car in my life. |
