| Was Vehicle Towed: - | Description of the Complaints: I've read that late model years with the at have experienced random hard shifts while going at moderate speeds. i was accelerating gently from 35 to 40 mpg on a very gentle slope when i felt as if the car hit a large bump or ridge. curious and worried, i turned back and retraced my path to see if it would repeat. it didn't, but i am concerned that this will develop into a major problem later. i've read from other owners of late model proteges with the at that they may abruptly seize while in operation. blame is pinned on the ford-designed at. please look into this matter as it could easily result in accidents and casualties should this transmission fail suddenly in traffic. |
