Reported on Mar 14, 2011
| HEADING UP A HILL AND HEARD A LOUD GRINDING SOUND. CAR STOPPED IN PLACE AND WOULD NOT GO ANYWHERE WHEN PRESSING ON THE GAS. TRIED PUTTING THE CAR IN REVERSE AND WOULD NOT MOVE AT ALL. ALSO TRIED PUTTING IN NEUTRAL AND IT STILL WOULD NOT MOVE. HAD CAR TOWED TO FORD DEALERSHIP AND THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT CHECKED THE CAR OUT AND STATED THAT THE TRANSMISSION GRENADED AS IT STATED ON THE WORK ORDER. I GOT TO SEE WHAT THE TRANSMISSION LOOKED LIKE. IT HAD PIECES OF METAL EVERYWHERE AND THE LONG BEARINGS WERE ALL SHATTERED INTO PIECES. A NEW TRANSMISSION WAS ORDERED AND PLACED IN THE CAR. *TR | |
