| Nar 2/10/2003. the vehicle required transmission replacement after only 32,000 miles. when the vehicle was service at 29,566 the mechanic noted that oil was in the transmission and therefore they would not honor the warranty. the consumer had the repairs done by a independent mechanic who found that the bearing on the transfershaft was falling apart, burning the transmission fluid which caused the brown color. the left front window would not roll up. *jb | |||

| In december, 2000, with only 5000 miles on the car, the transmission locked up and needed to be towed back to the dealer. since then, the car has had nothing but transmission troubles. the transmission has gotten stuck in 2nd gear while out on the high way. when slowing down, it has suddenly jerked into first gear, causing the car to not accelerate. it has jerked into 2nd gear, feeling like the car has been rear ended. each time it has been back to the dealer, they can find nothing wrong with the car. presently, at 45,000 miles, it is getting another new transmission. | |||

| Car continues to overheat. this is the fourth time it has happened; sometime the problem can not be duplicated and i am sent on my way even though it has happen before. the cylinder heads, water pump, thermostat, sensor and many others are only a few of the things that have been replaced on this problem. the car shuts-off without warning, and drives like a desiel engine (rough), you almost have to floor it to make the car stop and the dealer says it is normal; even though i hit another car going about 5mph because the car jerked foward and smashed my hood (i hit a ford:excrussion so he had no damage) and the transmission does not shift correctly. sure the dealer ship tries to fix the problem but there have been times i have been out of my car for a long as 7 to 8 weeks and many times there don't even know whats wrong. i have tried to contact rick case the dearlership owner and i never reiceve a call or email. *ak | |||

| There are two problems, i am not sure if they are related or not 1) car will not shift out of park if on an incline. in order to get it out of park, you must force the shifter. 2) car has problems with initial acceleration after a stop. will not go into first gear, transmission will thump into gear. transmission fluid level is adequate | |||

| I t started around october 25,2001,while driving on the expressway.i was driving in 5th gear around 65 mph when suddenly the stick jumped out of gear into neutral by its self, i looked down to see what had happened,. ther e was nothing attached to the stick, in other words nothing was hanging (no garbage bag or anything.this has happened at least 6 times.the car growls and i have to put it back in gear, now i'm anervous wreck.i took it into the the dealer twice and they couldn't find the problem.it has happened 3 more times since. i'm afraid to drive past 40mph or take the expressway. it seems to be a problem with the gear-shiftgas pedalcluth, you can feel when its going to happen because th pedal moves under your foot and the shift gear moves if you put your hand on it.*ak | |||
