Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: Transmission problem: i have had my 2000 ford taurus for only 3 years and the car's transmission is no good! the exact mileage on the odometer reads 48,143 miles. i feel that i have been sold a lemon. my husband was driving our car on 10/7/07 while on our trip to atlanta, georgia and the car broke down in the middle of a major highway - jimmy carter boulevard. his life was in danger because another passenger's car almost crashed into the back of our vehicle. the car was running and suddenly stopped. the car note will not be paid off until december '2008. i feel that there definitely needs to be a safety recall on this particular ford model car. i feel that i will need to make a television appearance on consumer report and make the public aware of this problem. *tr
