Description of the problem | Death/safety risk!! Once again driving my focus on rainy weather, and it sputtered and stalled. Had to pull off to the shoulder to avoid serious rear end collision. Car would not start for approximately 15 min. Finally started and roughly idled enough to get off the highway shoulder. Very frustrating. Especially after spending appx $1300. 00 to get this repaired and supposedly 100% fixed. Completely unacceptable- never buying a ford again. Glad my wife or daughter wasn't driving this vehicle. Nhtsa please make ford recognize this issue and fix it!! Contact me with any questions - as a quality engineer in the automotive industry, i know this is wrong!! A potential walk condition is the worst condition from a safety stance. |
