Description of the problem	Very dangerous! Bought a new 2004 ford freestar mini van on jan. 22. Of 2005 leftover . I have 35,000 miles on it. Driving home with my family on the heavily traffic long island expressway i 495 at approx 10:30 in the evening. No warning the transmission dies. No power at all. I coast to the right lane and with no shoulder where i was i just prayed i would not get plowed into the rear with my two boys age 5 and 10 sleeping. This was extremely dangerous. After reading the forums on the internet i find this is a common problem with this vehicle. Check out this link which is one of a few i have found... Http://www. Carsurvey. Org/viewmorecomments_review_77118_1. Html what recourse do i have and why isn't ford made to redesign / repair this deficiency in their design. Some family will get injured if not killed. These vans were designed for families with young children. Very disappointed and concerned.
