Description of the problem | Strong smell of exhaust inside the cabin. Vehicle has been back to ford three times and has modifications completed but has not corrected the problem. It happens more at highway speed with the air on recirculate. The lat time i picked it up from the dealer i was told to not put it on recirculate which is not up to my standard as i paid $30k for the vehicle i should be able to use it as i want. I have a three year old daughter and it is primarily driven by my wife. This is unacceptable and would like a new vehicle at this point. They told me they cannot test this as they do not drive the vehicles on the highway and it doesn't happen in their parking lot. |
