| I AM HEREBY LODGING A COMPLAINT ABOUT THE MT82 TRANSMISSION IM MY 2012 V6 FORD MUSTANG, AND YOU MAY ALSO INCLUDE MY 2011 V6 MUSTANG AS WELL, AS IT ALSO SUFFERED THE SAME PROBLEM. THE DATE GIVEN IS NOT THE 1ST, NOR WILL IT BE THE LAST TIME THIS HAS OCCURRED. 99% OF THE TIME..IT SHIFTS FINE, HOWEVER...SOMETIMES AT LOW SPEED THE TRANS WILL 'GRAB' THE TEETH OR GRIND WHILE SHIFTING AND SHIFTING AT SPEED(ENTERING A HIGHWAY OR PASSING SLOWER TRAFFIC)WILL RESULT IN GEAR 'LOCKOUT' AND OVER REVVING....MOSTLY ON UPSHIFTS, BUT SOMETIMES ON DOWNSHIFTING TOO. I KNOW I AM ONE OF A GROWING LIST(AND AN 18 YEAR FORD DEALER EMPLOYEE)OF MUSTANG OWNERS EXPERIENCING THIS PROBLEM...FORD NEEDS TO GET ON THIS BEFORE THEIR REPUTATION AND THE MUSTANG HERITAGE BECOMES TARNISHED!! *TR | |
