THE TRANSMISSION IS SHAKING AND RUMBLING ON THE WINDSTAR. WHY ARE THERE SO MANY PROBLEMS AND RECALLS WITH FORD? PEOPLE WORK TOO HARD TO PUT THEIR HARD EARNED MONEY INTO FORD'S CRAP VEHICLES.I GUESS ITS TRUE WHAT THEY SAY FORD STANDS FOR -FIXED OR REPAIRED DAILY/FOUND ON RAODSIDE DAILY...SPELL IT BACKWARDS AND IT STANDS FOR DONT RELY ON FORD...PAINFUL LESSON LEARNED!!!

Windstar SEL 3.8L

  • Automatic transmission
  • 92,000 miles

When driving at highway speeds and going up a incline it seems to kick out of overdrive but instead of being smooth it is a more of a shutter. Any ideas?

Windstar LE

  • Automatic transmission
  • 65,000 miles

Two gears went out on our Windstar transmission so I chose to replace the entire transmission with a rebuilt one.

(reported on)

Windstar LX

  • 40,000 miles

Well the mini van starts shaking over 40 MPH and rumbles between 60-80 mph. One guy told me that could be the transmission torque converter, I really don't know about the solution, and I will like to fix as soon is possible!
