| Description of the problem | Stopped at a stop sign and the van would not move. No gears worked. Couple days later, it drove fine. Couple days later no gears again. (and the torque converter was replaced under recall in 2012) now won't start and dashboard goes crazy after the key is out. With all the transmission problems and the wet pcm problems, i can't believe ford doesn't have to recall these van because of the pcm!! This vehicle is a hazard to drive. |
