The contact owns a 2009 Lincoln Mkx. While driving 45 mph, the contact heard a noise coming from the front right side of the vehicle. The engine reduce power and maintenance wrench light illuminated.

I've replaced a starter / alternator/ battery/ coil packs/ tune up/and my truck is still having problems with staying started. . I have to push the gas in park because it seems like it will shut off.
Automatic transmission is slipping badly. Results in temporary loss of power & speed. Taking my foot off the gas pedal, for two-to-three seconds, seems to remedy the situation. It's quite scary losing control of the vehicle during that period. Below, I am identifying an "approximate date"; however, this issue has been ongoing for quite some time - at least one, perhaps two, years. A mechanic's remedy may be checking the transmission fluid, or having the fluid replaced. I ensure I keep the fluid at its' proper level and I'm not replacing the fluid. I don't believe any transmission fluid ever needs draining and replacing - I think that's a scam when it's suggested!.
