Description of the problem	On december 27, 2001, i was pulling out of my driveway when i lost power. I couldn't go forward or backward. My husband came out to see what the problem was. He didn't understand why it would do that. We called ferrario ford. No answer, just an answer machine. I took our truck and drove to the dealership. They told me to call a tow company, but they couldn't get it in until the next week. Well, it sat there for a week and when the machanic called he said it was moisture. He dried it out and then called and said he had to do a flush. A few days later he called and said he would have to check the torque box and it would be a seven hour job. The next call was "it was the radiator had a crack in it". Then it was the transmission. He already has us at $1820. We said no. Then i find out that there is a recall. My husband when and talked to them. At first they said they didn't know anything about it. Another guy said yes. My husband talked to ford in michigan. Turns out to no avail as to what has already been done. When i bring it home tomarrow it will sit in the drive way with a sign that says "lemon" no more fords for this family.
