| Description of the problem | We purchased a 04 ford freestar in february 2009 thought we were getting a great deal. In october of 2009 we had to put a rebuilt transmission in it thank god it was covered under a warranty we purchased with the used car company. In may of 2011 guess what same problem and this time needed a brand new transmission at the cost of $3100. 00. Now we are currently having reverse problems with our vehicle. I am looking for help here with getting my transmission and new repairs paid for due to i have a family of six and barely getting by. I am still paying payments on this vehicle. This problem with ford has got to be solved somehow.... |
