Default transmison DONE..... again.

well my third gear droped out of the car tonight. its only been about 6 months since ford fixed it. The car now has 42k miles on it, it had 34k when she broke the first time. Any chance ford is going to fix it for me?

Dude that really sucks. I don't see why Ford wound't fix it for you again if you have warranty. Those bastards better fix it.

Yeah those retards must've done a **** job. Dealerships are the worst, they rip you off and do half-assed work. Unless warranty covers something, I would never go to a dealership to get anything fixed.

Do you know if when they fixed it the first time they performed the ENTIRE T.S.B. on it ( thats what they should have done) or just a quick fix of third gear which will cause the same problem to come back. Find out what they did and pitch a fit either way to get them to do it again. The parts kit for the TSB is around 1300.00 but the techs don't want to do it because it only pays about 5.5 hrs. which is a joke and that includes the R&R of the trans, good luck.

P.S. Its TSB 04-15-6

If its under warranty just tell them that it is hard to shift into 2nd and 3rd, sometimes it jumps out of gear and that you KNOW about the TSB so you want your trans fixed the right way, good luck.
