01/04/10 3.00 The tranmission appears to be in drive at a very low rpm on highway when accerator is pressed car shifts to passing gear but does not find it and revs up dramatically when you back off gas it clunks to a lower gear but engine appears to be luggingbeen to dealer he updated the pcm with latest updates could not roadtest due to snow covered roads. Said everything should be fine computer shows no fault codes. On a trip 3 days later accerated to pass a slow moving truck transmission could not fine passing gear reved up to 6500 rpm then violently downshifted. I was almost wiped out by a following vehicle who had a passing gear. I could have been killed.Not happy with the solutions so far.There have been 10 separate incidents the last one the engine reved to 7000 rpm and violently shifted to to low gear. The dealer is now pulling transmission for a full inspection as per Ford Consumer Relations.

10/06/09 3.00 Banging noise in rear when left rear tire goes over a bump. Dealer said it was the spare tire, but that's not it. I came home, removed the spare and drove, and the noise is still there. I'll be taking it back for the problem below and I'll have them check it again. Driver's side window screeches when going down. They had to order a part.
