So my mom owns a 2006 ford freestar and we were driving down the highway when all of a sudden the van just starts reving up and my mom noticed that the van had lost powertrain, (transmission slipped), i tell my mom to try to get to the side as safely and as quickly as she could but no luck van came to a slow stop on the second lane, note traffic was going at a steady 60-65 miles per hour. I get on the phone and call my buddy thats a tow-truck driver and luckily he was like five minutes away , five minutes that seemed like five years having cars swerving and almost hitting the back of our van. My mom was panicking and i tried my best to wave the cars from the window, so i am here because i have read many many similar complaints these vans have had with the transmission and from one post i read that the same van in 2005 and 2004 had a recall with the torque converter , same torque converter that is in the 2006 model yet no recall for the 2006, i suggest people having this same issue to go to the (nhtsa) website and file a complain, remember people the more complains the better chance we have the nhtsa to make ford do a recall on this dangerous problem the ford freestar has. Lets come together people and make a difference.
