| Was Vehicle Towed: - | Description of the Complaints: Me and my family have been long time ford customers. i myself have owned 3 fords and many others in my family have had several ford vehicles. my grandfather was a long time ford salesman in bunkie, la. i currently own a 2001 ford explorer sport trac with 46000 miles. i recently experienced transmission problems with the 2 to 3 gear shift slipping. well to make a long story short i had to get a transmission overhaul to the tune of $1,800. this vehicle only has 46000 miles and has done very little light towing and no off roading etc. i have always loved ford quality, but it seems has dropped the ball on this transmission. there are technical service bulletins out on this tranny and i have researched and discovered many others that have the same problem. it seems ford knows this is a problem, and i think they should do something about before they lose another long time customer like myself. needless to say i will be purchasing a new car soon, but plan to take my business to other brands dealerships. *jb |
