Ford Escape 2003: Transmission fluid change to fix shuddering

AFTER reading about the problem Dennis and Helen Davis were having with their Ford Escape (carsGuide, October 2) I thought I would tell you about mine. It was a 2003 Ford Escape and it developed a slight vibration when changing in and out of overdrive. My dealer was able to rectify the problem with a change of transmission fluid as recommended by Ford.

THANKS for your input. It sounds like Ford had taken care of the problem and Dennis and Helen should go back to their dealer and ask for the fluid change.
