| Was Vehicle Towed: - | Description of the Complaints: On 12/2/04 i brought my vehicle to ford for a repair. my cruise control was not disengaging from the steering wheel, i had to step on the brake to accomplish this. the repair was done. i had no further problems with this until aprox 12/14/05. the same exact problem recurred with the cruise control not disengaging from the steering wheel. when i contacted the ford dealer who did the original repair, i was told i would have to pay for the service repair since they only warranted for 12 months or 12,000 miles. i feel this is a safety hazard. clearly a repair such as this should not recur if new parts were used. either there should be a recall for this issue or faulty parts were used. when i contacted ford mfg i was told the same >>>my warranty had expired (by 2 weeks i should add)>>>so i was out of luck. no wonder ford is going under! anyway, that's my issue. please advise. *jb |
