2010 ford edge trasmission. After driving at highway speeds for about an hour and then come to a stop. When you start to go again the transmission feels like it goes to neutral and then slams into drive. Sometimes it takes less than a second to correct itself and sometimes its 2-3 seconds before it goes. It has happend almost every time we drive at highway speeds. Dealer cannot replicate the issue.

March19, 2017 while driving 20 MPH from our neighborhood to church with my wife, there was a loud clunking from front passenger side. We turned onto the main road and as speed increased to 55 MPH, the windshield cracked and I noticed the hood of car was raised up about an inch above the fender. We immediately turned around and drove slowly back to the house. The attached photos show what had happened. There is considerable damage to the sheet metal body components, windshield, plastic parts. There are many similar examples of the strut tower spot weld failure reported on the internet. All seem to be on the passenger side.

Vehicle developed a clanking / clunking sound. Felt like it was dragging something very heavy, automatic transmission shift points seemed to be delayed and shifting to a higher gear happened at a very high RPM. Stopped vehicle and turned it off. Noises went away after restarting, but acceleration was very sluggish and it didn't shift to a higher gear until a very high RPM, the gas pedal had to be pushed to the floor. Took it to a repair shop and it was test driven and put on the lift. Checked for any malfunction codes. The mechanic could find nothing wrong. This has happened twice.

I've had the transmission violently engage while riding along at a normal steady pace. One time was on the highway going about 60mph. The peddle was solid but the car decelerated like I took my foot off the gas. About 5 seconds later the tranny slammed into gear and resumed speed. It slammed so hard it felt like we got rear ended. I immediately called the dealership and they said "if it wasn't doing something when I brought it in, they wouldn't be able to find the problem". It also happened on a backroad at 30 MPH and also pulling out of a parking spot.
