Ford to recall 2004-2005 freestar!!

[Dan_J]

It is about time! Wonder if I will get my tranny replaced since they put a used tranny in my van when it crapped out at 50k miles.

"Ford is recalling 2004 and 2005 model Freestar and Monterey minivans because the torque converter output shafts in their power trains may fail and cause sudden loss of power."

I just seen it on the news. I wonder if I will be reinbursed for the $2000.00 I spent 4 months ago on rebuilding my tranny.

Is this just in the US or Canada as well? I know I'm 3 months behind but I was away for a bit!
