| Was Vehicle Towed: - | Description of the Complaints: Purchased a 2007 ford edge sel plus on 8/31/07. had less than 50 miles on it. for the last 3 weeks since i've owned this vehicle, i've been seeing red fluid on the ground where i've parked. my husband brought the car to ford this week and the repair receipt shows "ck red fluid leak, right center firewall area. a/c drain dripping on exhaust bracket causing red rust". it turns out the bracket is rusted from the a/c. the service guy at ford said he's never seen anything like it. he told us we should avoid the rusting by not parking on an incline. that isn't a very good resolution. this is obviously some defect in the ford edge. parking on an incline should be something you can do with your own car - especially since my driveway is on an incline. *tr |
