I first told the dealer of a small leak. They said it was nothing. I've had nothing but problems with this car and Ford refuses to address the problems. I know of many people who have had similar problems. I should not be paying $3,000 for a new transmission for a car that only has 43,594 miles on it. The government should do something about this ongoing problem. The consumer shouldn't be raped by manufacturers lack of interest in making vehicles that will last past 50,000 miles when they ask for tens of thousands up front for their product. Please help!!!!!!

I feel that this vehicle is a lemon and I am not getting any satisfation from Ford or the dealership. I feel that legal action is the only solution.

The transmission just started slipping upon initial acceleration and the speedometer needle flipped over to zero and stuck. Took back to the dealer where I bought it used (weliever) who took it to wilcher Ford as an authorized Ford dealer. They initially said it was the transmission/vehicle speed sensor and replaced that. That did not cure the speedometer problem. So they are ordering a new speedometer cable. I will not know if this cures the transmission problem until vehicle is returned. But this failure seems similar to ODI id 513344 in your recall list. Could you furnish more information to me about this case and/or check to see if my vehicle is listed as still outstanding on any recalls?
