POWER TRAIN

Potential Consequences:

This vehicle has an electronic shifting transmission and when shifting from drive to reverse, the system lags significantly (1-3) seconds before engaging reverse. This has been an issue causing several close calls. In addition to not being able to back up efficiently and being left hanging in limbo while waiting for the transmission to engage, the vehicle also continues to roll forward causing near collisions. Happens while maneuvering the vehicle in situations where a three point turn is necessary or when trying to quickly go from drive to reverse in an attempt to avoid another traffic unit or on coming hazard. Has been brought to Ford for them to check and they advised after a test drive that the vehicle shifts smoothly. The smoothness of the shifting was not the concern. It was the lag between drive to reverse. I believe it needs a software reprogram for the transmission.

ENGINE

Potential Consequences:

We were driving the vehicle when we experienced a sudden loss of power and acceleration. We also noticed odors of gas. We took it to a Ford authorized dealership and they said it was due to antifreeze in the oil from what they said was a leaking water pump. They recommended a new engine due to the difficulty of changing the internal water pump and the fact it leaked antifreeze into the engine oil, possibly damaging the engine itself. This was the explanation for the fault codes, random gas odors, and loss of power. It was explained this was normal when the sensors detect something wrong with the oil in the engine. Estimated cost provided by the dealership was $11,000 to replace the engine.
