Automatic Transmission Torque Converter Problems of Mercury Mariner

On the freeway and car suddenly has overdrive light blinking, at the same time I began losing power, I was able to get off freeway but not after I open hood and nearly got run over. I was checking to see if there was overheating or smoke. But nothing. I have already replaced pcm, transmission, and torque converter. Consequently my shifter is broken and you can see down into transmission. Obviously no I can't drive, I will have to have vehicle towed. Why hasn't transmission been recalled on this vehicle. I could not think about if my child would have been with me and stood in front of car. He never would have been able to move that quickly or even worse with freeway driving I even could have been hit from behind.

The car stopped running as I exited the interstate off ramp. This was in high traffic with cars behind me. I was able to get the car restarted and coasted to the side of the road. A tow truck took me to a Ford dealer, where it was stated the torque converter had failed. The Ford dealer told me that a new "code" number had been issued because there were so many problems for Ford escape and Mercury Mariner from 2003-2008. My vehicle is a 2005 Mercury Mariner. I had no previous indications that this would fail and was traveling out of state. The cost was $1800 and the dealer stated that Ford and Mercury were not doing anything to resolve this other than issue an internal notice to all dealers. I feel a recall should be issued and my costs refunded, they are obviously aware of this issue.
