| Description of the problem | Drove car home day before, seemed fine. Went out next morning, car started fine, put into gear, car would not move. Check engine light, check transmission light, check traction control light all came on. Also the "wrench" light came on. Throttle will not work properly, won't let engine rev up. Saw the class action suit for these ford cvt transmissions online, want to sign up for it as these transmissions are dangerous and defective, a well documented fact. |
