Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: Without warning, the speedometer went flat and the engine stayed in low gear and the "check engine light" came on when i was trying to drive up a steep hill. i called my husband and he put a little extra transmission fluid in it. i was able to drive it home. we took it the following day for a oil & air filter change and transmission fluid flush. we only made it a few miles until it broke down again with the same problems. when we had it checked at the shop, we were told it also has a broken motor mount. we called a "transmission specialist" and were told by the description, it sounded like the speed sensor had gone out. we had this van custom-built, no one else has ever owned it. it currently has about 94,000 miles on it. it has had regular mainentence and has never been iinvolved in a collision. has ford recalled any of this, it seems more than the regular wear and tear?*ak
