[QUOTE="Gerald Pierce, post: 602547, member: 54639"] Seems that while we have many issues with the tranny here, you dont here much about it other than on these types of boards. There are many vehicles out there with these tranny's and I would venture that the total percentage of failures is not as high as we think. I think there is a design issue, but for the average driver, it may not be as widespread as it seems. I'd be interested in seeing data from an impartial third party, but we never will. My 93 Mustang with the 2.3L and auto tranny crapped out on me Friday. A bad solenoid was causing the TC to stay locked up... 512.00 to fix. I elected to go the route of having the entire tranny overhauled and a new TC installed for 1250.00 as I get a warranty on the entire thing for 12mo/12k. this car has 140k miles, and I am sure there has was minimal maintenance done before we aquired it a year ago. I hope I get at least that out of the ST, but I wont put any money on it. [/QUOTE]
