Transmission slipping

We do not normally refer you to a shop. Instead we provide the information to allow you to decide if the repair is something you may want to do yourself or if you may want to take it to a shop/dealer.
In the case of a slipping transmission and the mileage you show it is likely that the transmission is due for a rebuild. As for a shop, any place that is able to handle a Ford transmission should be fine as that car is on the same platform as the Thunderbird and Lincoln LS and uses much of the same running gear.
