Car failed to go into drive several times while in traffic. Was bought with zero miles and started making strange grinding and knocking noises immediately. When I reported it I was told I couldn-??t get it checked for a month and that it was safe to drive until appointment. I was soon stuck in the middle of busy intersections because car would not drive after I give it gas and it acted like it was in neutral. This happened every time I stopped until I made it safely home it was very scary because I could have caused an accident not being able to go when needed and was almost stranded in traffic. There were never any warning lights. After having it towed to the dealership I am now being told it could be transmission problems, but it doesn-??t seem there is much knowledge on this particular vehicles mechanics or electrical system. Ford has not been honest or in contact with me about situation. Should not be happening at under 1000 miles and after more research seems is a common issue they knew about that they did not fix before selling to me. It has been at the dealership for 3 weeks with little communication or explanation.
