 Description of the problemFord is aware of defective trasmissions in '95 windstar. Car lurches forward after not accelerating from a stop position, could cause accident if another car were in front, slipping transmission at 50,000 is unconscionable. Dealer checked and said i would have to have a new transmission installed at $2,400. Check online under "ford windstar automatic transmission problems" there are thousands of cusotmers with transmissions and head gaskets blowing at very low milage. Is there a class action suit regarding this defect? Apparently, ford is aware of the problem but won't do a recall because it's too expensive. I am single mom with 3 children whom i must drive to and from school every day and i am very concerned about our safety. Please help me! According to other owners, after their transmissions began to slip, it was only weeks before the whole thing blew. I do not have the money to buy a new transmission.
