Description of the problem | Trouble with transmission clutch assembly. Was told ford put in manual clutch in automatic cars. Hesitation upon acceleration, rolls backward when in drive on incline, does not shift right, "chugs". Purchased 2014 car in early 2015, used. Feel car sales business should have known and not sold car in this condition, or have had it fixed first. Per ford service station, parts are on backlog for 3-4 months. Even though they tell me is it not a dangerous condition, i feel it is dangerous on highway when trying to pass and not getting enough acceleration. |
