Tranmission/torque converter has a shudder when shifting at about 50 mph, I have done some research regarding this and have found 19 tsb's regarding the transmission/torque converter from Jan. 1995 to July of 2003. This is on my 1995 Mercury Grand Marquis. I have contacted Ford/Mercury and have been told the cost of diagnosis and repair is my responsibility. It would seem to me with so many tsb's on this problem there is a mfg. Defect involved, and should be fixed by the mfg.
