And yes, I get it...this is a Camaro forum and we will take every opportunity to take a stab at the Mustang...the only REAL competition. All's fair in love and war. I just hate to see everybody get so defensive.

I agree. Except for the fact that the transmission in question has also been in use since 2006 in a Land Rover and in the Ford Transit Connect and they reported the same issues and Ford did nothing about it. It took a rabid group of pissed off performance car enthusiasts to get the Feds involved so they will finally fix it. It seems as though Ford knows there is a problem and either has no idea how to fix it or doesn't want to spend the money to make it right. At least they will HAVE to fix it now. I feel bad for those guys. At least now they have some hope.
