Failure Date: 05/03/2018

I was driving 70mph on hwy 290 when my car suddenly downshifted to first gear and then the wheels totally locked up. This caused me to start sliding sideways down the road until I came to a stop. It turned out that a computer module regulating shifting had gone bad. This also caused my transmission to go out and need replacing.

5 Vehicle Speed Control problem

Failure Date: 09/09/2012

We were driving on 95 when we heard a thud-type noise. We thought we had a flat tire, but then the vehicle would no longer accelerate. We were able to get off at the exit that was immediately upon us and safely pull off on the side of the road. We did not have any flat tires. The vehicle would still turn on and run (so we knew it wasn't the alternator), but it wouldn't accelerate. The Ford dealership informed us it was the mextronics electronic portion of the shift mechanism and valve body in the transmission. They said that this type of problem could not have been prevented and it does not happen often.
