#678 of 951 I have not recieved any letter or emails from NHTSA. by anabel Jul 14, 2009 (1:48 pm)
I have not recieved any information from NHTSA because I don't think they have a way to get ahold of me.   Do I just need to get on a list of some type to be advised?   Thank you, Anabel   Replies to this message: chopps1 (Jul 16, 2009 9:49 am) anabel (Jul 18, 2009 9:47 pm)

Replying to: amfam203 (Jul 14, 2009 7:26 am) I got an email from the NHTSA asking for more information about my transmission failure. It has been over a year since I filed a compliant. That goes to show be patient, they are investigating!

Replying to: mgcoop (Jul 11, 2009 8:24 pm) Please send all the information you can to www.nhtsa.dot.gov.... National Highway Transportation safety administration.   Over150 people have filed complaints about the free star transmission. The D.O.T. has been in contact with me about the transmission failure and is sending me a mailing label so I can send them the torque converter and out put shaft. I’m guessing they’ll be inspecting them? The free star transmission problem has now gone from just people complaining to a preliminary investigation and information should be available on the Nhtsa.dot.gov website (Now or soon)   Transmission failure with out warning is the problem because of a piece breaking off in the transmission running threw and tearing it up (can’t remember what piece it was)   Just start sending Info and making complaints on the above website and hope we can force ford to make a recall.   MAYBE we can get some of our money back… …??????????????????????

Replying to: msq1224 (Jul 08, 2009 5:03 am) the complaits started buiding up and more people are now involved so its more of a problem and got their attention.

Replying to: chopps1 (Jul 16, 2009 9:39 am) They also asked me to send my Torque Converter and transmission parts but the Ford dealership said that they needed the parts to return as a core. I have the invoice where it states that the inside of the transmission was full of shavings from the torque converter and shaft.
#686 of 951 Disclosure of information by nadineb Jul 16, 2009 (12:51 pm)
Ford is required to release information to NHTSA under Federal law. If they have not been honest with the release, they should be heavily fined by the government.   The risk of being injured in one of these vehicles is so great. Ford has the responsibility to correct this situation, and their lack of action in these vehicles is criminal.

This is great. Im going to notify the NHTSA again to be sure they have my complaint. Thank you all for the support& information. Had to replace my tranny inNov.08.Im sooo in fear of it happenning again. Husband now retired, low $$$$, could never repair again or purchase another car. Also the way it happens is scary. NO WARNING.
