Transmission failed - metal throughout. Replaced under warranty and excuses as to why it happened. Not acceptable at all. If everyone thinks fords quality has improved, think again - they are worse then ever. Trading the car now, first and last ford, ever !
To all who own these cars, trade them before the warranty runs out !

I buy a car in march 4, 2010 & after march 10, 2010 I found out the transmission is broken and almost cost me an accident on the highway. And the worst part is I have a DAUGHTER and ex -wife and her son in the car & coz the car won't go up up hill, I was driving 80km and suddenly dropped to 60 and 40 with 7000rpm. I pushed the gas to all the way & the car wouldn't speed up. According to the dealership, the car is under warranty but the car almost caused an accident. The dealership said sorry.
I was so upset and feared for my family as well.
I tried to give it back to the dealership. She said no return policy even though the car is broken.
But I worry for my family or people who might get killed. These people just sell the cars and nobody cares, just want your money!!!
The place of dealership is main and terminal in vancouver bc canda.

Driving locally seemed like no issue. but take car on a long haul and then back to normal in town driving it would start acting up. Put into drive and not move, put into reverse and no movement. Driving on highway one day and started acting up pulled off. Stopped car and finally after several attempts managed to get it to move in drive. Heading along highway again decided to take exit and turn back toward home. Got off highway and on busy side road and car starts clunking and then just stops in the middle of the road. Will not roll to the side of road in drive or reverse or neutral. Had to wait for tow truck and then he hauled me to closest dealer who refused me as I had had the car into my local dealer for the issue before. So due to that problem, the truck towed me to my local dealer and I had to dish out cash to cover that cost too. After 2 weeks I was told they would have to order me a new transmission. So after 2 months and 2 days and many courtesy cars and rentals my car is finally done. Still not the same - my radio is cutting out, my seatbelt light is coming on and next week it is up for sale.
