My 2006 ford freestyle is stalling out at low speeds and not responding to acceleration. the wrench warning icon comes on the dashboard when the worse problems are occurring. it is not the throttle bottle which has been replaced and been reprogrammed. the mechanic showed 4 error lights regarding the cvt transmission. the ford dealership was unable to diagnose or fix the problem. currently there is a mass class action lawsuit being filed in california, it is not a unique of isolated occurrence. |
