Description of the problem	I was stopped at a four way stop sign in my 2005 mercury monterey. Just as i pressed on the gas to move through the intersection, the transmission let go. I was fortunate that i could coast out of harms way. The car is now immoblie. This is the second catastrophic transmission failure on this vehicle. Transmission failed in july 2012 at 109k miles. Car was repaired according to ford specifications. Second failure on 11-8-2016 at 170k miles. Without warning the transmission disengages and the car does not move forward. A second failure related to the same issue 60k miles after the defect was allegedly corrected is unacceptable.
