Description of the problem | "takata recall" even though i no longer have the car, had them repossessed it. I made very clear when buying i wanted a car i would have no problems with. I hah just filled my tank with gas on my way to see my pain med doctor 80 miles away fuel system quit, at station, this is an in closed system not supposed to go out because my car was still in shop i missed another appointment with this dr. Which resulted in me being put into withdrawals from medication, had i driven there any system had gone out i would have lost control on highway 287 towards wichita falls tx which is extremely heavy traffic. Two times my life was placed in danger because of a recall i was not informed of. Now ford what's me to pay for what they didn't get from auction i'm not paying for a car that nearly got me killed twice and i don't think they should put this against my credit. I'm considering suing as they cost me my doctor, through me into withdrawals which at the time was life threatening because of health, and possibly losing control on highway at 70 miles which could have cost me my life, now there is another recall about engine fires. Stationary failure with far reaching consequences. |
