Description of the problem	On 1/27/12 while heading out of town with my family on a busy highway at a speed of 72mph my van lost all power. The van was suddenly dropping speed with no prior warning at all. There were semis all around and thank the lord i was able to pull the van over to the side of the road out of harms way. Once on the side of the road i turned off the iginition and waited a few minutes before trying to start again. The van started but, would not go into gear at all. I had to call a tow truck which costs me money i did not have and now to find out that there are many others out there with the same make,model and year vehicle that are having the same exact problem and nothing is being done about it by ford is crazy. This could have cost me and my family our lives and others that were driving around me. When is something going to be done.?! To have ford recall the '04 and '05 models for this exact reason, should make them realize there is something extremely wrong with this make and model vehicle. I purchased this vehicle for the family thinking of safety all along but am now scared to drive it once it gets fixed. This is death trap as far as i am concerned. *tt
