Description of the problem	My daughter and i were traveling home from columbus ohio, we were traveling on sr 53. When our 2006 ford freestar engine started increasing rpm's. Without any warning the transmission just acted like it was in neural. We were able to get off road but was almost hit by semi behind us. We were stranded on a country road at 3 am. I finally contacted a towing servive and $120. 00 later we made it home. I contacted our local ford dealer and they said yes, we no whats wrong what is your vin number? I gave them my vin number and was told that it wasn't on their list????? It the same problem they know they have but since it wasn't on their recall list it was my respondsability. Thsi van only has 36,000 miles, ford knows they have a problemand won't own up to it financially. They are going to get someone killed if this problem isn't fixed. How can a company know they have a safety problem and not be liable for their pooly designed transmission.
