Good to know. The few times I've shifted back into drive have been pretty smooth, however, I usually shift back into drive at low speeds. I tried shifting back into drive once at about 45 mph (usually 4th gear) and the transmission was in 3rd gear. This made for an abrupt slowdown before the self induced up-shift and it didn't feel or sound very good to me.

Anyone else encounter a similar situation with Fords/Foci? P&G seems pretty impossible in this situation. It could be this was a fluke and next time it will work fine, but I'm hesitant now.
