1995 Ford Probe Complaints

I HAVE 3 OF THESE TIRES EACH LEAKS AIR AROUND CIRCUMFERENCE OF THE SIDEWALL, AROUND WHERE THE TREAD PORTION MATES WITH IT. *TR

TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 1995 FORD PROBE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE SERVICE INDICATOR CONTINUOUSLY ILLUMINATED. THE MECHANIC WAS UNABLE TO DIAGNOSIS THE FAILURE. THE MANUFACTURER ISSUED A RECALL PERTAINING TO LIGHTING FOR THE CONTACT'S TYPE OF VEHICLE. THE CONTACT WAS NOTIFIED THAT THIS VEHICLE WAS NOT INCLUDED IN THE RECALL. THE CONTACT FELT THAT THE VEHICLE WAS NOT PROPERLY CHECKED. THE CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 98,000 AND FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 70,000. *AK

THE CONSUMER IS HAVING PROBLEMS WITH THE ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, INVOLVING: THE CIGARETTE LIGHTER, INTERIOR LIGHTS, ETC. AS FAR AS SHE KNOWS THE BRAKE LIGHTS, HEADLIGHTS, AND DASHBOARD LIGHTS ARE WORKING. THE FUSES HAVE BEEN CHECKED AND THEY WERE FINE. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER JUST TWO DAYS AGO, AND THE PROBLEM WAS NOT SOLVED. THIS WAS THE SECOND TIME THAT THE CONTACT TOOK THE VEHICLE TO THE DEALER. *AK *SB *NM

O/D LIGHT STARTED FLASHING, TRANNY BEGAN SLIPPING WHEN SHIFTING FROM 2-->3 AND THEN ALSO FROM 3-->4. TOOK TO TRANSMISSION SHOP, DIAGNOSED WITH TRANSMISSION FAILURE. I HAVE NOW TOTALLY LOST 4TH GEAR.*AK THIS IS THE 2ND TRANSMISSION FAILURE FOR THIS VEHICLE

WE WERE MAKING A 500 MILE TRIP TO GO TO A FUNERAL AND WHEN CLIMBING A LONG, STEEP GRADE THE INTERIOR OF THE CAR FILLED UP WITH SMOKE. I STOPPED AT THE NEAREST SERVICE STATION AND OBSERVED TRANSMISSION FLUID LEAKING OUT FROM UNDERNEATH THE VEHICLE. I QUICKLY ADDED ENOUGH FLUID TO BRING THE LEVEL UP TO NORMAL. FOR THE REMAINDER OF THE TRIP, EVERY TIME THE TRANSMISSION OVERHEATED, THE SMOKE WAS QUITE NOTICABLE. WHEN I RETURNED HOME, I TOOK THE CAR TO A GARAGE AND AFTER MANY HOURS OF LABOR, THE MECHANIC TOLD ME I WAS IN DANGER OF TRANSMISSION FIRE ,AND ALL I COULD DO WAS SPEND ABOUT $3,000 ON TRANSMISSION WORK. I HAVEN'T HAD THE REPAIRS DONE YET.*AK
