Ford Explorer Transmission problems?

Question:
Has anyone with a 2002 Ford Explorer had to get their transmission replaced with 75,000 miles or less? My O/D light was flashing so I took my car in to get it checked hoping it wasnt a serious problem. I have seen hundreds of complaints on other websites about the 2002 Explorer transmissions, yet when I called Ford itself, they said they haven't heard that many complaints and unless more people call or write and complain, it will never be on recall. Of course my warranty expired and $2600 later, I am livid. The mechanic even said they have seen more 2002 Explorers than any other car out there. He also said that Ford admitted they were having problems with that year transmissions yet wont do anything about it. Is anyone else having this problem?
