Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: Traveling in the slow lane and went to pass another vehicle when pressing on the gas the rpm just raced but the truck did not? turns out with only 70,000 carefully and pampered miles i need a new transmission. how is this possible with all proper services at sugested milage? $2000 is a big expense at such low milage- waranty out at 60,000 so ford told me im out of luck- they did not take any blame in faulty parts or engineering! ford has a very bad reputation and now i know why. *ak
