Description of the problem	After owning this vehicle for one month, the transmission had to be completely replaced. About a month after the new transmission was placed, i started having problems with the car not wanting to accelerate. I would be merging onto the freeway or pulling into traffic and the car would not accelerate. The rpm's would go way up, but the car would not move. I am fearful anytime i drive this car that it may not accelerate when i need it to and i'll end up in a vehicle accident. I have had my escape into the dealership 5 times for this same issue. The last time i had it in, ford put in a flight simulator. After ford evaluated the simulator findings, ford engineers said this was "normal"; they will no longer evaluate the issue. I am truly scared in this vehicle and i've only owned it for one year!!! Help!
