| 2005 | POWER TRAIN:AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION | MY HUSBAND WAS THE DRIVER OF THE VEHICLE AT THE TIME OF THE PROBLEM AND HE NARRATES THE EVENTS BELOW. I WAS COMING OUT OF A BASEBALL GAME AND AFTER A STOP SIGN I STARTED MOVING OUT FROM AN INTERSECTION TURNING RIGHT WITH TRAFFIC FROM THE LEFT. SUDDENLY, THE 2005 FREESTAR MADE A NOISE AND ACCELERATED (AS I HAD MY FOOT ON THE GAS) AND LIKE SHIFTED TO NEUTRAL GEAR. I TRIED TO GET IT IN GEAR AGAIN ONLY TO NOTICE THAT IT WAS STILL IN DRIVE. I TRIED TO STEER IT TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD BUT AS I WAS JUST MOVING OUT DIDN'T ROLLED ENOUGH TO CLEAR THE TRAFFIC LANE. CARS FROM THE LEFT STARTED AVOIDING ME GOING CLOSE TO THE MIDDLE OF THE TWO LANE ROAD AS ONCOMING TRAFFIC HONKED THEIR HORN. REGARDLESS OF THE GEAR IT STOOD LIKE IF IN NEUTRAL. FINALLY AFTER A WHILE THE TRAFFIC SLOWED DOWN SO I GOT OUT AND STARTED TO PUSH THE VAN TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD. I HAD IT TOWED TO MY HOUSE AND COUPLE OF MECHANICS THAT HAD COME BY HAVE QUOTED ME OVER $2000.00 WHICH I CANNOT AFFORD SINCE I JUST GOT A JOB. I HAD TO RENT A CAR UNTIL I CAN FIGURE OUT WHAT TO DO. *TR |
