Just bought a used 2010 Ford Fusion SE with 171k miles. When we test drove it it ran smooth. When I checked the tranny stick it was dry. No leaks though. Dealer added tranny fluid when we purchased it. Since we bought it, we have noticed shifting from 1st to 2nd and to 3rd feels a little hard or kicks...like a manual. Is this normal? I have read a few topics here about it and most say it is normal. I had my mechanic check it our before we bought it and said everything looks good. When I recently checked the tranny stick (after dealer added fluid) I noticed the fluid is dark pink but does not smell burnt. Is that normal too? Thinking on getting a tranny flush and new fluid to see if that helps. Any ideas or suggestions?

2010 Ford Fusion SE 4DR SEDAN - Automatic nearly 70,000 When it shifts, its slightly hard. Is this a Transmission Fluid issue like Autozone told me? Luckily I have a 3 year/30,000 mile warranty with my dealership. No other issues I have seen.

I've noticed that under a heavy acceleration there is a smell of exhaust going into the car. This only happens when the vehicle is accelerated hard. Could there be a loose seal? Why it only happens when the car is pushed hard? Really enjoy the ride in my Sport 2012.
