Product type code	VEHICLE
Description of the problem	Transmission disengages when you come to stop. You hear nothing. If you try to accelerate nothing happens but rpm's go up. Transmision then engages, tires spin and vehicle takes off like at a drag strip. Any car or person in front of you is in immediate danger of being hit. Problem is intermitent and you have no idea when it will happen. All you can do is leave as much room in front of you as possible and pray. I thought i was alone until i realized via the internet and from miller ford rep that this is common problem affecting this vehicle. I am afraid to drive the vehicle and can't afford to pay for another transmission, especially one that will have the same design flaw, whatever that may be. I am providing you with this information as i have had many close calls but have avoided accidents/injuries by narrow margins. Please address this problem before someone gets seriously injured or killed assuming nobody already has.
