Patricia Posted March 29, 2018 Share Posted March 29, 2018 Hi there! Recently, my car had transmission failure. It has less than 60000 but over the 5 year guarantee period by a month. My car was fixed by a 3rd party. I found out that Ford had issued earlier a technical service bulletin acknowledging that the 2010-2013 transit connect may exhibit an upshift flare or lack of 3rd and or 4th gear along with burnt automatic transmission fluid. They have a direct clutch repair kit available to address these concerns. I feel that Ford should have informed me of this issue so I can have it fix before my guarantee was over. Also, the NTSA has recalled several 2013 models with the same transmission failure issue. Unfortunately, Transit Connect is not among them. Has anybody in this forum had the same problem with the transmission? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jiquay Posted March 30, 2018 Share Posted March 30, 2018 (edited) You might want to post this elsewhere on the forum, under the "recalls & service bulletins." This header is for troubles with the forum itself. There's also a "transmission" thread. GK Edited March 30, 2018 by Jiquay additional evidence has come to light...

G B L Posted March 30, 2018 Share Posted March 30, 2018 Not sure where you are located, but you might want to check with your attorney generals office, You might have some recourse it there was a TSB on your issue especially considering the timing.
