| Was Vehicle Towed: - | Description of the Complaints: When it rains water leaks onto the gem module and fuse box under the dashboard left of the steering column. some of the effects are, windshield wipers stopping, transmission going into limp mode with od light flashing, battery going dead if raining overnight, speedometer not working, heater fan running while off, left front power window not working, and instrument panel warning lights flashing on and off. everything comes back to normal after it dries out. i had the windshield replaced. i had the new windshield resealed twice. i had to replace the battery. i still can see water dripping next to the parking brake. i have browsed the net and found that this is a common problem with expeditions and f150's. i would like ford to take responsibility and repair this defect. |
