Description of the problem | My wife pulled out to make a right turn and the car bogged down,stuttered, hesitated. Long enough that she was scarred by the approaching traffic. This has happened several times. The stuttering, bogging down occurs all the time! We have had the car into kendall ford twice already and have another appointment scheduled for october 28th. The next available service time. Service manager stated he has 40 of these cars in need of this repair right now, and that is the reason for the delay. This car is unsafe in its current condition. We are reluctant to drive it, please press ford's to do the right thing and fix these cars. It should not take tragedies to make corrections!
