Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: My 2000 ranger has just 50k miles, which exceeds the warranty, and already has major transmission problems, which has cost me $3000 dollars to repair. according to the transmission shop whom repaired my transmission, said "the damage did not happen over night; it was due to poor quality parts used by the manufacturer of the transmission. the damage began several thousand miles prior to, then resulted in transmission failure." being that hundreds of others have experienced the same transmission problems as i have, and that it is obvious that ford is aware of these transmission problems, which explains their sad warranties, and continues to use them in their new vehicles, which will lead to more robbing of innocent consumers, ford needs to repair the problems at no cost to the consumer, and or stop using such poor quality parts in their products. since these transmission problems began at the mfg. level, i believe that ford should reimburse the cost to repair my transmission. *cb
