When driving my transit 250 it vibrates a lot and I was told that the transmission is going out. After I researched I find that this is a common problem with this Ford vehicle. It cost about $4000 to fit and Ford is not helping customers with their vehicle. Why is there no recall on this problem?

Vehicle will randomly shift into first gear typically while going down hill on interstate at speeds of 70 mph or greater. The resulting shift causes the engine to rev far past red line and causes severe unintended deceleration. Situation happens without warning and after a few more harsh shifts goes back to normal. Contacted multiple Ford dealers with no answer to problem.
