There was a guy here on FR who said he was on the design team of your Windstar’s transmission. You may be happy to hear that I thoroughly flogged him verbally when he claimed that it should never have had any problems.

Well done! And that designer’s arrogance/ignorance is a significant example of what’s wrong with American automakers.
My Windstar, an automatic, would at times just not go, as if it were in neutral. If you stopped at a light, and tried to go, once in a while the engine would rev and no go. Put it in park, drop back down to drive, away you go. The idiot dealer couldn’t fix it, I wrote a couple letters, then traded it off on a 2000 Grand Voyager. I still have that car.
I have no sympathy for Ford.
