DRIVING IN HIGHWAY PASSING LANE, THE CAR SUDDENLY BEGAN TO LOSE MOMENTUM. SPEEDOMETER RAPIDLY BEGAN TO DROP WHILE RPM'S WENT BALLISTIC, THEN DROPPED. I WAS FORTUNATE THAT I QUICKLY REALIZED THE CAR WAS COMING TO A STOP THAT I COULD NOT CONTROL REGARDLESS OF HOW HARD I PRESSED THE ACCELERATOR.  I WAS BARELY ABLE TO PULL OVER 3 LANES OF TRAFFIC  TO MAKE IT INTO THE BREAKDOWN LANE, WHERE IT CAME TO A COMPLETE HALT AND COULD NOT BE MOVED.    NOT ONLY DID I HAVE AN ISSUE WITH MY 2003 TAURUS AT 71K MILES, WE ALSO HAD TO REPLACE THE TRANSMISSION ON OUR 2001 FORD F-150 AT 110K MILES & 2005 FORD FOCUS AT 80K MILES, AT A COST OF $8300.00. ALL OF THESE VEHICLES WERE PURCHASED NEW AND DRIVEN BY THE SAME DRIVER.    GIVEN THE NUMBER OF COMPLAINTS POSTED ON THE NHTSA WEBSITE, I WOULD THINK EITHER FORD OR THE NATIONAL HIGHWAY TRANSPORTATION SAFETY ADMINISTRATION WOULD TAKE RESPONSIBILITY AND PERFORM AN IN DEPTH INVESTIGATION WHY SO MANY FORD TRANSMISSIONS ARE FAILING AND ISSUE A NOTIFICATION OF THESE SERIOUS ISSUES WITH THIS CAR AND THE STEPS TO REMEDIATE THOSE ISSUES BEFORE THE ISSUE CAUSES SERIOUS INJURY OR DEATH.","products":[{"type":"Vehicle","productYear":"2003","productMake":"FORD","productModel":"TAURUS","manufacturer":"Ford Motor Company"}]}]}
