 As you can see, i have not owned the vehicle for six month or 6,000 miles, when this problem arose, i have tried to contact ford motor company with an assurance of a return call. it never came my job limits me from making phone calls durning regular business hours, but i intend to call tem again, my feeling is that this sould not have occurred to this truck with such low mileage. i am also aware of a technical service bulletin put out because of this problem, and other transmission related problems. thank you for your time, you provide a valuable service.
