| Was Vehicle Towed: - | Description of the Complaints: For a few months now, my 2001 v6 automatic ford escape has had a problem trying to shift into the last gear at 45-50 mph. the vehicle's rpm's will be near 3000 for a good 30 seconds before it finally engages into the next gear. the problem is definitely worse on colder days, but it is still certainly noticeable on warmer days too. there is no smell emanating from the vehicle. i had a complete transmission flush at about 40k. the vehicle now has 65k on it. have there been any similar reports filed and if so, could you please notify me? thank you. *jb |
