Automatic Transmission problems of the 2000 Ford Mustang

Consumer stated that while driving at any speed during warm weather and no warning the vehicle will stall and it will be hard for the consumer to control the vehicle. Dealer notified. Ts.

Took vehicle in for a oil change dealer stated to the consumer that the transmission had a leak. Also the vehicle is idling very high consumer states that the vehicle will go as fast as 15 mph without putting her foot on the accelerator pedal. Nlm.

Have had numerous problems with the power train and they replaced the transmission and is still doing the same thing. . . Will not replace the vehicle and says that it does not fall under the lemon law even though they have tried to fix the problem and have failed three seperate times. . . . All I want is another car without the problems.

Car was stuck in reverse on two separate occassions. Was able to work it out first time but had to have it towed to dealer second time. Dealer states they can not get a new transmission for vehicle since it has been modified and no 2000 transmissions are available. Ford field rep visisted dealership and has told them to put a "patch" on the shift assembly and "see if that will work". When I questioned Ford field rep who the next person in chain of command to speak with about problem, he indicated there was no one above him; that he resolves all problems. Dealership has bent over backward to try to help me; problem seems to be with Ford corp. Ford's customer care service dept. Has not responded to my e-mail.

Cpnsumer was traveling about 55mph on highway and applied brakes because he was coming to a stand still. Vehicle was in third gear, and the rpms started going down. Consumer shifted gear into neutral, and vehicle cut off without prior warning. Dealership was aware of problem.

Nhtsa item # 620988 - I have had this problem in my original new transmission and also in a Ford rebuilt transmission installed by reliable motors on 12/03/02.
