| Was Vehicle Towed: - | Description of the Complaints: There have been numerous problems with this car. the alternator has been replaced four times in six months. the battery has been replaced. something is still draining all of the power away. the front-seat three-point seat belts go slack while driving and do not retract after use. ford says it is not a problem. the front and rear air suspension system is defective. when the car is being driven the back end goes way down then back up. the front often has one side to go all the way down while the other side goes all the way up. this makes it difficult to control the car. the air conditioner has been completely replaced. still, it cannot keep the car anywhere near confortable. the windshield gets an oily film on the inside that won't go away. finally, the speed control sometimes starts accelerating for no reason and/or will not deactivate when "off" is pressed. ehh, i guess that's about it for now. thank you for taking the time to read these comments.*ak |
