Speed sensor and transmisson were failing, causing gears to shift erractically and resulting in vehicle to violently shake as it deaccelerates. Dealer has replaced speed sensor at 64,000 and 77,000 miles, and transmission was replaced at 70,000 miles, problem still reoccurring. Provide any further details on this matter.

Appears to be another case of early transmission failure due to defective components. Danger at time of failure was that from a stop I put my foot on the gas to move forward and the engine just raced. Had I anticipated accelerating to avoid oncoming traffic there would have been trouble.

When traveling transmission operated erratically/ jumps out of gear, and engine races.

Cruise control cable would stick. Has happened twice before. Had set cruise control on 62mph going uphill, auto shifted down. Was going downhill and pressed on brakes to release cruise control. Vehicle picked up speed. Cruise control failed to disengage. Put on brakes and turned vehicle off to disengage cruise control. The dealer sent a hazardous condition report to the manufacturer upon consumer's request.

Vehicle accelerates on its own when backing up or at stop lights. Engine revves, and vehicle takes off.

- Columbus, OH, USA

At 90,000 miles while driving I came to a stop on a hill. When I removed my foot from the brake to give the van gas it began to roll backwards!! almost hit the car behind me. I revved the engine with my foot on the brake and eventually the transmission engaged with a thud. It was if the engine had gone into neutral. Went to aamco to have the transmission check and was informed that it was the aluminum forward clutch piston that was cracked and that Ford was replacing them with new steel forward clutch piston. Apparently this a common problem with Ford Windstar minivans. I asked Ford if this was a recall issue and they told me that it was only a service bulletin. I would consider this a safety problem if you are on a hill with other vehicle behind you.

Engine cooling system: Overheating; interior heating system inoperable; pipe of thin metal continually ruptures causing coolant and water to spew out.
