Transmission Problems......and parking?

 
Jan 13, 2009 By: DUSTINMAN626
I bought this truck, used @ 40,000 mi. It seems when you come to a stop, it slams or bounces. Even when you creep to a stop. And when you accelerate, it hesitates, jerks, hesitates again, then goes. I took it to the dealer, and they couldnt find anything wrong with the trans, (the computer cant find anything either..of course) but they said it was the throttle cable. After they fixed that it was worse then before. I keep getting dicked around by them like they dont want to fix it because they kn

I also had a leak coming out of the domelight (the ************ AND the buttons on each side)and when you would make a turn, it would "pour" out of either button depending on which way you tur

STAY AWAY FROM THIS MODEL - HORRIBLE TRANSMISSION

After about 4000 miles the 6 speed transmission in this V8 AWD Mountaineer began slipping and hesitating. Then around 8000 miles the tranmission would slam into 1st gear when slowing to a stop. It would slam so hard it felt like I was being hit from behind. The dealer has tried to fix this problem now for the past 13,000 miles, but Ford Motor Company has yet found a "fix" that will work. Now the vehicle will shift abrutly from 1st to 2nd gear when starting up from a stop. This harsh
