2007 Ford Freestyle Complaints

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 FORD FREESTYLE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE TRANSMISSION WAS NO LONGER FUNCTIONING. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO TRUCK CITY FORD (15301 I-35, BUDA, TX 78610) WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE TRANSMISSION FAILED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 100,000.

AUTO WAS REPAIRED 2008 BY NON FORD DEALER BEFORE THE RECALL HAPPENED FOR PROBLEM OF AUTO SURGING FORWARD AND BACKWARDS. THEN FORD REIMBURSED THE MONEY $700.00 OF REPAIR. NOW CAR HAS 110K MILES AND IS SURGING FORWARD AND BACKWARDS AGAIN . VERY DANGEROUS FOR ME AND FAMILY. I WOULD LIKE FOR FORD TO REPAIR MY VEHICLE AGAIN. ORIGINAL REPAIR WAS FOR THE CAR SURGING FORWARD AND BACKWARDS AND I FEEL THAT WITH ONLY 110K MILES ON IT, I SHOULD NOT BE EXPERIENCING THIS DANGEROUS ISSUE AGAIN!!!

TRANSMISSION MAKES A BUZZIN,WHIRRING SOUND IN PARK AND REVERSE...FROM WHAT I READ ONLINE FROM MANY OTHERS..THIS NOISE PRELUDES TRANSMISSION FAILURE WHILE DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD...MOST OF THE TIME CAUSING AN EMERGENCY SITUATION THAT COULD CAUSE AN ACCIDENT WITH PERSONAL INJURY...FORD IS AWARE OF THE PROBLEM, OR SHOULD BE BY THE NUMEROUS COMPLAINTS OVER THE YEARS, BUT HAS YET TO OWE UP TO THE TRANSMISSION FAILURES, CAUSING A MONETARY HARDSHIP FOR THE OWNERS OF SAID VEHICLES OR THE ALMOST TOTAL LOSS OF THE VEHICLES VALUE. IT IS THE RESPONSIBILITY OF THE NHTSA TO INVESTIGATE COMPLAINTS SUCH AS THESE, THEN DEMAND THE MANUFACTURERS START THE RECALL PROCESS TO PERMANENTLY REPAIR SAID TRANSMISSIONS ( CVT ) OR REPLACE COMPLETE UNIT AT MANUFACTURERS EXPENSE. START THE JOB YOU PEOPLE ARE PAID GENEROUSLY TO DO. U TUBE HAS MANY VIDEOS OF PEOPLE TELLING THEIR PROBLEMS, AND VIDEOS OF MECHANICS EXPLAINING THE PROBLEMS

WHEN THE CAR IS PARKED IT LIKES TO EXHILARATE AND IF YOU'RE ON PRESSING ON THE BREAK IT WANTS TO EXHILARATE

A DASHBOARD LIGHT REFUSES TO GO OFF. WE CANNOT PASS INSPECTION WITH THIS ON...
