Description of the problem	My unit is suffering since day one from the exhaust issue, almost textbook to the typical description in the news; upon acceleration with the a/c on, the exhaust of the vehicle get in presumably through the back of the vehicle, which are then sucked into the a/c by it's suction units on the back and you end up smelling the exhaust gases for a while. The issue is specially present while the day is cold (mornings and nights), on climbs (inclined upwards roads) and specifically upon acceleration; it doesn't have to have the a/c max button on, the road type has no influence and its relative speed is not a factor but rather just acceleration. I took it three times to the dealer, specially after i read about the issue happening to other vehicles and they said with the modifications they did should be corrected (extension of the muffler, re-sealing the trunk door, other procedures), but it didn't!. Now i'm paying for an expensive car which has fouls and probably unhealthy odors getting into the car by its own design and have no recall or real solution to my problem. Please issue a recall or demand a real solution to the problem by ford. If i would have the time and money i would have filed a lawsuit as i find almost a racket that you pay for a vehicle with such a bad design flaw and no real action to solve it from ford. Also, it is not the only flaw as have had to repair the links of the front suspension (still under warranty) almost on every oil change visit, three times already, and the vehicle has less than 30k miles. Please help!!!!

What is Recall?
A recall is when a product is removed from the market or a correction is made to the product because it is either defective or potentially harmful.
What is Failure?
Failure is the state or condition of not meeting a desirable or intended objective, and may be viewed as the opposite of success. Product failure ranges from failure to sell the product to fracture of the product, in the worst cases leading to personal injury, the province of forensic engineering.
