    2000 windstar only goes in reverse

    2000 SEL with 44K. Fluid level ok. My question is do I take it to a
    transmission place or back to the dealer where I bought it used less than a
    year ago?
    TIA

    is it a possible linkage problem? does not have park or neautrel gears?

    is it easy to move the shift arm.. with no feedback friction?

    what happeneds when you go to drive..?

    I had the same problem on a plymoth horizon where reverse would not move.. i
    floored it and it slammed into gear (do this with your foot applied fully to
    the brake)

    is it possible that you might be able to repair this yourself if its
    something simple? or if your after having someone else do the job then take
    it back to where you bought it and (depending on the warranty if any you got
    with the vehicle) demand that it be repaired at no cost to yourself, however
    if it was sold as seen etc, or limited warranty than shop around for anyone
    that might be able to repair it and the best possible price / quality etc..

    Purchased "Ford certified used" whatever that means. However I did not
    purchase the Ford extended warranty at that time.At the dealer's as we
    "speak". Waiting to hear what the problem is and how receptive they are to
    fixing it for me. We shall see. I can't do it myself, I know that much!
    Thanks

    I have an AAMCO guy getting it from the dealer tomorrow. To get another
    estimate. See "I'm angry at Ford!" for more details.
    Thanks Ken.
