| Description of the problem | I experienced a sudden loss of power after accelerating from a stop light on the morning. I coasted to the side of the road, called my husband, did i mention it was 445 am, he came and towed me out of the way of traffic and had it towed to lithia ford dealership when they opened. We were told by the service adviser that a new transmission is needed, but they couldn't take it apart because to warranty company would not allow it. *dt |
