Both my 2003 Crown Vic and my sone 2002 Mercury Grand Marquis (same car)continuall have transmission shudder and hesitation problems. The Dealer said these transmissions are touchy and need trans flushes and replacement fluid every 25-30,000 miles. The Ford book says every 40,000mi. The problem is very irritating and I know will lead to early trans failure. I now have to go in about 25,000 intervals to have flushes done for about $150.00 each time. This car, while very nice riding, has had more than its share of problems including ball joints going out (both my and my sons Merc) front springs breaking, loosing axle's every 45,000mi. We are both easy drivers with mostly highway miles.
