| Description of the problem | Continuing to experience problems with downshifting. Took to ford dealership, the acted like they had no idea what was going on or hadn't even heard of the recall of the 2011 or 2012 models and the open investigation into the 2013. Now for a third time, driving on sat. Oct. 20, the vehicle shifted into 5th speedometer fell to zero hand had to shut off and restart car to get it going again. Driving in a rural area with speed limits of 45-55 mph. I was traveling around 50mph at the time. We are very frustrated as this has happened with kids in the car 2 times now and we don't want them killed due to ford's inability to take responsibility and recall the 2013 models. We have submitted documentation via cell phone picture that is time stamped with my husbands watch in the picture to verify when it is happening. |
