Description of the problem	I hade been driving the van for approximatly 125 miles, came to a stoplight close to my home. Stopped at the light, and when i tryed to go forward ehrn the light turned green, there was no power to thee transmission, the engine only reved up. I was facing downhill, and rolled into a store parking lot. Had to have it towed to my house. Doing research online, i found very similar cercumstances with many other freestars. Ford had issued a recall on the torque converter for the 2004-05 freestars, but not the 2006, which has the same part. All freestars with this same part shuld have been recalled, not just 2 out of 4 years. I feel very cheated and now i am facing a very large repair bill.
