This is what the mechanic has sent me. I have to proceed to get the car repaired as I have no other option other than scrapping it.  

Selling with the fault declared might be another option depending how much that will get you. Paying for the repair might not be cost effective if you can then buy another car for less than £5000 + the sale price

Thought it might be worth signing up in order to clarify that incorrect information has been given to the OP by some people.

The veh is a Mondeo Hybrid, thus an Atkinson  petrol engine and electric motor, but it is NOT a German manufactured Getrag Powershift ransmission, nothing like it, and does not require an oil change etc.
The Hybrid Mondeo models have an ECVT (which means a "Continuously Variable Transmission"), it is only used in Mondeo Hybrid models but CVT trans are also used in other makes of vehicles. Officially it is a sealed non repairable unit.

Hi TreborB, 
Apologies for resurrecting an old thread - I arrived upon this post from google as am helping my brother who has had the same problem, and you appeared to have an insight into the problem. Low mileage 2015 Mondeo Hybrid - Ford have advised full gearbox replacement as both driveshaft seals are leaking. Do you know if there has been any progress or developments in the 4 years since regarding these problems? Google has surprisingly little as maybe there are so few of these cars around. 
If anyone knows of someone who works on/ repairs these gearboxes, all advice appreciated. Based in East London/ Essex borders. 

Thanks,

I would suggest joining one of the many ford forums that cover your car & asking there. As you will get far greater coverage 👍
