 Description of the problemI was making a left hand turn from the middle lane of a busy 5 lane highway when i lost all power to the drive train. Fortunately i had gained enough speed from the drive train to barely avoid on coming traffic. Three seconds earlier and this could have been a tragedy. There was no warning or indication of failure. There were no sounds, smells, or eradicate motions. I immediately had the vehicle towed to a ford dealership garage. After an inspection the service advisor stated that the torque converter had come apart and would need to be replaced. Since then i have done some investigative research into ford freestar torque converter failures. It appears that this is a problem that started with the 2004 freestar. I hope that ford takes care of this problem before injury or fatality. In my case, three seconds made the difference.
