Description of the problem | I've not had a fuel gauge since my 4th warranty repair (turbo replacement turned catastrophic and incurred warranted engine replacement as they blew it in shop and had it for almost three months) and i am not happy at all. And i am now gonna have to go back and get it fixed as this is dangerous for me. I keep a gallon of fuel i'n my car, so i'm basically huffing fumes all the dang time im in my car.. I must keep a gallon of fuel in the car due to the sudden stalls and the subsequent crank, wont start issues. Up until after my car was "repaired".. I didn't have issue until id done run out of fuel and or run out of outa fuel and stalled in most precarious places whilst in motion and driving down the road. I'd run out of fuel and my car would sputter and die. I've walked up to 12 miles to get to a gas station luckily. I am not cool with this [xxx] cause i bought it with lil to no mileage and new off the lot.... [xxx] has a ring to it if anyone could help... To an erratic at best case i've been stranded with no phone, no food nor water at least three times. And they think i'm gonna bring it in for service and allow them to screw me over again? Don't think i have a lot of trust for ford no mo.... I hope they stop playing around with people's lives as seemingly expendables and wasting our valuable time and money. I've lost a job from it and that's no joke. Information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u. S. C. 552(b)(6). |
