Was Vehicle Towed: - | Description of the Complaints: In our local paper on 8/31/2000, there was a story about the alameda county (calf) superior court judge's preliminary decision concerning a posssible recall of of ford vehicles in the model years 1983-1995 concering the thick film ignition (tfi) module being placed on the distributor near the engine block where it overheats and casues the car to stall. can you give me any updates as to where this situation is currently and will i be notified in case of a recall by ford. i saw this story after i spent over $700.00 getting my fuel pump and fuel pump module replaced by a local mechanic who thought that would stop the stalling. it didn't. once my car car reaches a certain temperature, it stalls. thanks for your help and if you need any further information, please don't hesitate to contact me. ken kelly |
