No warning lights the entire time vehicle kept down shifting and upshifting. Stopped vehicle in 87seconds or so to find safe pull off area. Little oil on dip stick. Refilled oil I.E. 3qts low. Coolant good? Who knows? Let things cool down for around 30 plus minutes. Went to start and no start. NOTHING. A good citizen lent us his portable jumper box. After several attempts it final started. I shut engine down ASAP!! Lifters knocking out of control. Towed to Ford dealership. Three days later informed that motor was blown. After reading recalls and know it was caused by the transmission. I ask the service department if there were any recalls. ANSWER? NONE. My insurance company was no help in knowing any recalls, plus I didn't see needing additional coverage on this vehicle. Need a starting point on this. Over $10 thousand to replace due to transmission failure.
