2004 FORD FREESTAR TRANSMISSION FAILURE AT 63,000 MILES NO WARNING -- TRANSMISSION WOULD NOT ENGAGE - VAN WAS IN MOTION - THANK GOD I WAS NOT ON A HIGHWAY AND WAS ABLE TO COAST TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD. REVIEWING ALL THE COMPLAINTS THIS IS A HUGE SAFETY ISSUE -- SOMEONE NEEDS TO ADDRESS THIS BEFORE SOMEONE IS KILLED BECAUSE OF THE DEFECTIVE TRANSMISSIONS IN THESE VEHICLES! *TR

POWER TRAIN
WHILE DRIVING IN HEAVY TRAFFIC DURING A SNOW STORM WITH MY 9 YEAR OLD DAUGHTER ON THE FREEWAY MY 2006 FORD FREESTAR STARTED JERKING AND TRYING TO STALL OUT WHEN TRYING TO GET OFF THE FREEWAY TO SAFETY SPEEDOMETER WAS SHOWING I WAS DRIVING 120 AT A STOP LIGHT. THE RPM'S WERE AT A 3 WHILE SITTING STILL. IF THE VAN HAD STALLED ON THE FREEWAY THE INCIDENT WOULD HAVE BEEN HORRIFIC. THEN A SECOND INCIDENT HAPPEN ON MARCH 28, 2013 WHEN I WAS PREPARING PULL ONTO A SIDE STREET MY VAN STARTED JERKING AND STALLING OUT ON ME AND THE SPEEDOMETER SHOWED I GOING A 120 WHILE SITTING STILL AT A STOP SIGN. *TR
