What Are the Most Common Issues with the Transmission in a Ford S-Max?

I recently purchased a Ford S-Max and I've noticed some strange behavior with the transmission. Occasionally, when I shift gears, there is a delay and the car jerks before finally engaging. Is this a common issue with Ford S-Max transmissions and what can I do to prevent it?

It sounds like you may be experiencing a problem with the transmission solenoid or valve body. It's a common issue with Ford S-Max vehicles, and can easily be fixed by a certified mechanic. I would recommend taking your car to a trusted mechanic to have it diagnosed and repaired.

I had the same issue with my Ford S-Max and ended up having to replace the transmission control module. It's a bit pricey, but worth it in the long run. I suggest taking it to a dealership or reputable mechanic to have it diagnosed.
