Tl* the contact owns a 2010 ford escape. On july 1, 2014, the contact stated that the driver was involved in a vehicle crash while driving approximately 25 MPH. The driver drove over a speed bum and the vehicle became abnormally uncontrollable. The driver then struck a parked vehicle. The driver was not injured. The vehicle was taken to a storage facility. The approximate failure mileage was 44,000. The VIN was not available.
I was driving on a service road and was entering the freeway when the transmission started slipping. This caused my vehicle to start jerking. The vehicle behind me almost ran over me as I was loosing speed due to the transmission slipping. I managed to pull over and after a couple of minutes the transmission started working again and I was able to pick up speed and continue driving. This incident also caused my braking and steering to be erratic. This happened 3 times on dec 9, 2014.
