I started experiencing a sluggishness and jerking sensation upon acceleration. I took my van to starling Ford who diagnosed it to be a transmission issue. An estimate was given for either replacing or repairing the transmission. Shock. I took the van to premier auto care, for a second opinion. They then referred me to quality transmission after driving the van. I asked Ford for some assistance since the quote was so much and it was out of warranty at 60,784 miles due to "wear and tear". After about a week, Ford responded with $5,984. 37. I decided to have quality transmission replace the transmission after hearing from 2 mechanics that they had seen other Ford Transit Connect vans, with more mileage than mine, having the same transmission problems. I find it hard to believe that a transmission had to be replaced before 100,000 miles, which seems to be the magic number for miles. My van is used for personal use only.
Vehicle operator was traveling too fast when merging, 65 mph, then lost control and struck a safety barrier. A few minutes after the crash, a fire started from the front of the vehicle. See attachment.
Failure with the transmission with only 8000 miles.
