Description of the problem	2006 ford fusion: when driving after the car gets warm up it is starts slipping and shifting someone harshly like it just got kicked. I was on the freeway and couldn't speed up almost got rear ended. I see others have the same issue after doing a search i found different answer as what could be wrong. Found out what the issue is with the aisin transmissions slipping which were used in the 2006 fusion. It is due to valve bore wear in the main control. If the trans fluid isnt burnt (meaning there is internal trans clutch damage) then you are looking at $800-$1000 to replace the main control. If the clutches are burnt the whole trans will have to be replaced cost??? Something like $4000-$5000. The problem is that when ford bought the aisin trans, ford did not buy the service rights. So there are no service parts available or training avail on how to service this trans. The issue with the main control has been so common that aisin has agreed to supply ford with service main controls. There has been a technical service bulletin out there. See below tsb bulletin date: feb 2007 various driveability/transmission symptoms - pcm/tcm calibration updates 3. 0l - aisin f21 auto trans. ( nhtsa item number - 10021277 ) as one person posted. Ford needs to make this right!!! Very unsafe*** our car is parked in the garage we can not afford to fix it or sell it with a bad transmission . Ammco said needs new transmission.
