[QUOTE="Richard L, post: 1030257, member: 52972"] There was batch of Sport Tracs that Ford recalled for transmission problems because the wrong transmission fluid was installed at the assembly plant?? The only symptom they claimed was that the transmission would lose Reverse ? For vehicles effected by the recall but not having a problem with Reverse, the recall was to put a bottle of a Friction Modifier into the transmission to correct the incorrect fluid. If the transmission would not operate in Reverse, they would replace the transmission. I never believed that story since there has been a lot of transmission problems with Gen-1 Sport Tracs...mostly shift flares (slipping when shifting), no Reverse, or complete failures. ...Rich [/QUOTE]
