Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: The vehicle stalls without notice during several different scenarios and the braking and steering become difficult. the vehicle was taken to several different repair shops, including the local ford dealership and although the stalling was eveident, no one coul;d clarify why and how to repair the problem. i am reproting this problem on behalf of my elderly mother, who has had this stalling problem since she purchased this used vehicle and has not been able to find anyone to successfully repair the vehicle. the tempo is her only means of transportation and she has had to cope with the stalling problems because she can not afford a new vehicle. she recently struck a utility pole when the vehicle stalled while she was making a turn and damaged her vehicle. she desparately needs some assistance in having ford make her vehicle safe. i have contacted ford at their 1.800.392.3673 number and spoke with a representative by the name of selvin, who basically said that ford will not voluntarily do anything to assist at this time and he would not provide any additional contact information. please help!*ak
