I was driving 70mph on hwy 290 when my car suddenly downshifted to first gear and then the wheels totally locked up. This caused me to start sliding sideways down the road until i came to a stop. It turned out that a computer module regulating shifting had gone bad. This also caused my transmission to go out and need replacing.

We were able to get off at the exit that was immediately upon us and safely pull off on the side of the road. We did not have any flat tires. The vehicle would still turn on and run (so we knew it wasn't the alternator), but it wouldn't accelerate. The ford dealership informed us it…

After the vehicle hit 5,000 miles, we started noticing a decrease in our fuel efficiency. Around that same time is when we also began having problems with our transmission. When driving at low speeds, between 30 mph and 40 mph, the rpms oscillate up to +/- 250 rpms. Between those speeds, the engine is constantly revving up and down while driving. We have had our vehicle serviced by ford on six different occasions,…
