I was driving on a road, approaching a 4way intersection; the car engine stopped. The screen stated transmission failure. Service immediately. My car restarted and the screen cleared. I proceeded on and within approximately 100 yards the screen repeated the transmission message. I then turned around to return to my home as the dealer was closed. I attempted to contact Ford motor company. But it was Sunday. Monday I again called and was told that I had extended coverage on the transmission, to take it to the dealer. I have had repeated work on this vehicle's transmission since I purchased it in 2015. I have not been charged for these repairs, but the inconvenience and the potential for failure of the vehicle have not been addressed. I had slid through the intersection when the car came to a stop. Luckily there was no oncoming traffic.
Transmission module failed for the third time. Lurches, engine revs, no power, fails to go. Ford parts are on backorder for 30 days or more.
Driving on the highway at 65 mph car looses power you cant accelerate it hesitates and wants to shut off at times it does it wont go up hill and when approaching a stop light hesitates and shuts off you start it back up fine and it wont go transmission fails its automatic transmission does it once transmission warms up.
