Ford Mustang Unknown Or Other Safety Report | Apr 23, 2011
Reported on Apr 23, 2011
| I WAS PROCEEDING FROM A STOP SIGN TO MERGE WITH ON-COMING TRAFFIC AND WAS NOT ABLE TO ENTER 2ND GEAR AND ONLY AFTER SHIFTING INTO 3RD INSTEAD WAS ABLE TO AVERT BEING HIT. IT WAS NOT DUE TO THE 1ST TO 4TH SKIP SHIFT FEATURE. THE CAR HAS ALREADY BEEN INTO FORD (FOR A TECHNICAL SERVICE BULLETIN REPAIR FOR THE TRANSMISSION) TO FIX THE SHIFTING PROBLEM, BUT THE VEHICLE IS STILL HARD TO SHIFT IN LOWER GEARS AND NOW HAS TRANSMISSION WHINE. THIS IS VERY DANGEROUS! MANY OTHERS ARE AFFECTED BY THIS PROBLEM. FORD NEEDS TO RECALL THIS TRANSMISSION. | |
