When shifting vehicle it feels hard. Has contacted dealership. Dealer said that warranty has ran out. Transmission pan was loading metal shavings. Transmission had to be rebuild. Transmission is okay now. *ak at 40-45 MPH the transmission does not shift to over drive automatically. The transmission was rebuilt at the owner's expense.

Transmission downshifts out of over drive at highway speeds then goes back into overdrive, vehicle surges forward at this point. Almost lost control of vehicle, taken vehicle to dealer. Dealer cannot duplicate problem or retrieve fault codes from unit. Vehicle still has the same problem taken to dealer 5 times with no luck of finding problem.

Torque converter causing vibration under light acceleration.

Filed Dec 31, 1998 · Transmission · MA

Transmission fails to engage when coasting at 33 MPH and accelerator gradually applied. Rpm's go up before slamming into gear. A transmission flush done under warranty at about 20,000 miles. Two additional transmission flushes done at personal expense at about 45,000 and 60,000 miles. Problem is intermittant, but frequent. This problem happens when vehicle coasting (accelerator not applied for a short time) at specific speed (aprox 33 MPH) with engine near idle speed and gradual acceleration applied (happens frequently when taking highway offramps and accelerating to merge with traffic on new road - very scarry when no power to rear wheels, then a sudden slam into gear occurs.) other 1994 owners spoken to claim they received a new torque converter at no charge when they have had similar problems. My vehicle serviced by ford dealer for 99% of all service, but not receptive to this problem.
