The transmission cooler line was corroded and leaking. It's not surprising considering the amount of salt we have on the roads here. The salt water collects in the plastic clip that holds the line and never gets a chance to dry out. After twelve years of that it failed. |

2006 Ford Fusion 4-door
6-cylinder automatic 2WD
| 11000 mi | Upon starting the car, the gear shifter would not come out of park. This was accompanied by a strange combination of lights on the instrument cluster.
