I used to be quite impressed how well the Trac shifted.
Now the gears seem to "slip" sometimes while shifting. Other times the transmission gets "confused" and there is a hesitation while it finds the correct gear. Finally, sometimes there is a rumble or a shudder while shifting....usually when the car in front slows down to turn and then I accelerate.
I took to the Ford dealership, only 30k on my '04 model. They found NOTHING wrong with the transmission, and of course the Trac behaved for the test drive I took with the mechanic.
Since these are relatively sporatic issues that I cannot recreated on demand, should I just "hope" for complete transmission failure in the next 6,000 miles so Ford can fix it?
Should I let my local Goodyear store flush out the transmission? (like your supposed to at 30k)
I really like the Trac and hope to keep it a long, long time.
Any advice is appreciated. Thanks in advance.
