Description of the problem | Sometimes when i have driven the car and get back in it within an hour or 2 it the car will start but will not hold an idle. In order for me to get the car going i have to have my foot on the clutch and gas at the same time and after 10-15 min it will 'catch' and stay running. The problem has been there since the car was new and i took it in to waldorf ford and they looked at it when it was under warrenty and they said their was no problem at all. I was wondering if this falls within the lawsuit that in pending in maryland. Please contact as soon as possible to see if this can be resolvedthank you |
