 Description of the problemIt's us again!!! On our vacation to ga, about 250 miles or less, our engine check light came on. We went to the nearest ford dealer in lumbngton, nc and had an engine diagnostic done. The ford dealer was said they fixed the problem. Codes p1150, p1151, and another code. However the engine check light came on again while in ga and then went off. I called the ford dealership back in nc and he stated that we should be okay and should make it back home safely. On our way back home the check engine came on again aroound nc-va and s no warning lights came on, nor did the engine overheat and it was driving okay. We decided to pull over at a rest stop and thats when the car hesitated to move and then smoke came out from the tailpipe and underneath the hood and leaked out all the transmission fluid including all over the back door and windows was greasy from the leak. . This is the second time something like this has happened to us while driving long distance. Thee vans are very unsafe to drive and ford needs to do a recall on these vans. We have put more money into this van then i can imagine in a lifetime. These incidents has also cause us unneccesary strain. In addition, our door ajar lights comes on, cruise control don't work, our gears do not shift correctly and gets stuck between gears, overdrive light starts blinking when we try to use it, the air conditioner makes strange noises when using it and driving,etc. It just does not work. I am very unsatisfied with this van and would appreciate a remedy and prompt solution. This is our only means of transportation and we still owe more than what the vehicle is worht. Please help us and contact me when you have receive this. Thanks and i look forward to something being done to take care of us ford windstars owners. We would also like reimbursement for our emergency expenses,tow charges to freedom ford from emporia, virginia. We also had our oil changed by freedom ford before we left and a 15 point multi inspection done. *ak
