I'm hoping that this Forum community can help me.
I have a 2001 Mustang GT that makes a clashing/grinding noise when shifting into 3rd gear. Ford has a TSB (technical Service Bulletin) for the 5 speed manual transmission TR3650. This problem is covered in the TSB. There is a kit available to fix this problem for ONLY $2,800 installed. I only have 55,500 miles on this car. The dealer, as well as the 1-800 Customer Service Representative, refuses to fix the problem free of charge. In fact, Customer Service will provide "no assistance at this time". While I have no extended waranty, I believe that this is a manufacturer defect due to the fact that there is a TSB, and a repair available. This transmission replaced the T45 transmission mid-year 2001. My car was built in July. This is a brand new product and as with most, if not all, new products, there are bugs to be worked out.
I want to fight this.
Any and all help will be greatly appreciated.
