Ford Freestar Class Action Filed
In June 2010, this law firm and co-counsel filed a nationwide class action alleging that the 2004 and 2005 Ford Freestar and Mercury Monterey models have defective transmissions, that the transmissions failure is manifested by a sudden loss of power, that repairs cost $1,000 to $3,000, and Ford typically has refused to cover any of the cost.
The complaint lists various remedies due affected owners.
The federal safety agency has received over 227 owner complaints of transmission failures in these models. Ford reported to the agency that it had received 2,791 warranty claims involving a loss of power.
The case is civil number 8:10-cv-01505-AW and is pending in the federal district court in Greenbelt, Maryland.
