Description of the problem	2006 eddie bauer ford explorer, i was pulling out onto a main highway and my transmission started slipping and causing sputter/non engagement and my children and were so scared cause we almost got hit by a semi from the transmission not engaging while crossing traffic. I was 7 mos pregnant as well. What would i have done if their father lost all of us for this highly reported and ignored issue!? There needs to be a recall before something devastating comes of this.

What is Recall?
A recall is when a product is removed from the market or a correction is made to the product because it is either defective or potentially harmful.
What is Failure?
Failure is the state or condition of not meeting a desirable or intended objective, and may be viewed as the opposite of success. Product failure ranges from failure to sell the product to fracture of the product, in the worst cases leading to personal injury, the province of forensic engineering.
