There's a chronic hesitation when you push the accelerator from a yield/merge type situation at low-speed. It's not every time but many times. Today I was going around a car that was sitting in the road with it's flashers on (ie double parked) and there was a car in the other lane on the 2-lane one-way street and I stepped on the peddle to accelerate slightly and it totally choked and I thought I was going to get hit in the rear and then it kicked in. I noted this way back when I bought it and at that time I thought it had something to do with the gearing which it still could. I told service about the issue and I even took them for a drive but of course that time it didn't happen. I've tried over years to id the problem more but while I can see somewhat of a pattern it's not guaranteed. Although one of the most likely situations is going up a hill, turning slightly to the right while slowing for a yield sign but not stopping and then pushing the accelerator only to get a hiccup or choke or whatever you want to call it. There are also issues filling the tank because of a lack of enough space for fuel to replace air causing the self-shutoff of the pump to kick-in not filling your tank. I raise this up as this could be some type of pressurization consistency. There's also the aggressive accelerator where you push it a tiny bit and it wants to take off enough to squeal the tires sometimes.

The transmission would not go into overdrive on the highway so I pulled over and then the automatic transmission had to be manually switched from gear to gear and then drove fine. The the vehicle starts doing the same thing after warming up. Now reverse and 3rd are out when the vehicle is warm. Ive had sensors bands and other things replaced. Everything short of a new transmission has been replaced. Now I cant find a transmission repair shop that will rebuild it due to so many problems with these transmissions they do not want to put a warranty on it. Please look into this problem. It needs to be a recall. Something is clearly defective or licensed technicians would repair them and wouldnt care to offer a warranty. My vehicle has had transmission problems off and on since 2017. This is ridiculous that all the complaints have not resulted in a recall.

Ford oem part no.: 8r3z-7210-c - shifter assembly automatic console shiftier blind may bind up in the track or break completely like mine did. This can cause difficulty in the shifter going in to gears or park, or show proper p r n d 3 2 1 selection on selector. A broken blind can allow things to fall down into the gear sector, that could cause gear selection or park not to work properly. Stationary or moving I don't see how this is a this is a unsafe condition of the part. The whole part has to be replaced at $283 + labor unknown as they do not sell replacement rebuild parts to fix the automatic shifter. Https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xerutmnrwig https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=en5ijpmhwlk keep in mind people trying to fix the problem themselves generally leave themself with no gear section indicator because ford does not sell parts for rebuild, only to replace the whole thing.

The clutch is slipping at only 10,000 miles, the car cant even make it up a gentle grade with the cruise control on ! It cannot maintain speed it cant handle when you give gas to accelerate to freeway speed when entering the onramp to freeway. This has to be the slowest shelby on the road.

The vehicle while shifting gears is in 3rd gear is changing RPM's. The RPM's are moving vastly from lower end to top end. The car has very low miles and recently purchased 7 months ago and only placed 3000 miles since purchase. The warranty company will not cover the problem. I reached out to ford because there are some forums that state this part that is making car do this is the clutch and gives out very early after manufacturing of the car, they said they are unable to help me but if there is a recall they will let us know. We feel this part is defective to give out in 3000 miles since purchase and see there are several people with same complaints online.
