This is a new car. When it was test driven, there was no problem. Now there is 1,500 miles on the car and the problem seems to be getting worse. Fuel economy seems to be taking a hit on this as well. I love the car otherwise. It is rather frustrating.

Transmission shifting is unsafe and unpredictable. The car can barely make it up a steep driveway, I have to backup and get a running start at it. This sometimes causes me to go too far and in to traffic which is unsafe. Ford has performed all current updates and all it has done has caused my mpg to drop by nearly 10!
