WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2009 Mercury Milan and 2009 Ford Fusion. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
NOTE:
Some transaxle conditions can cause engine concerns. The Turbine Shaft Speed (TSS) not disengaging will stall the engine.

- Hot or cold vehicle operating temperature
- Hot or cold ambient temperatures
- Type of terrain
- Vehicle loaded/unloaded
- City/highway driving
- Upshift
- Downshift
- Coasting
- Engagement
- Noise/vibration - check for dependencies, either RPM dependent, vehicle speed dependent, shift dependent, gear dependent, range dependent or temperature dependent
