Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: A fuse blew & the windows wouldn't go up. when i replaced it smoke started pouring out from under the hood of my ford expedition 2002, eddie bower which was parked in my garage. i took out the fuse & tried to back the expedition out of the garage but i couldn't take it out of park. i put the fuse back in & flew out of the garage smoke again coming out from under the hood. i took out the fuse & open the hood. the smoke was coming from a senor on the master cylinder. i sprayed the fire extinguisher on it and unplugged it. i put it in the shop & they change the cruise control brake switch. the same part was recalled on my f150 xlt 2000 pick-up. my cruise control & horn won't work now & the shop doesn't know what is wrong to fix but i can put the fuse in & the windows go up & down, & we can drive it. the shop said that when this part goes out it lets a charge feed back to the ground side & can cause fires. it is the same part as was recalled on my pick-up! *nm
