Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: I have nothing but problems with this pile of junk. first the headlights, took it in on recall but the headlights still go out also adding to me not being able to see and almost killing my daughter and myself, is the heater core went out all over the floor causing us to breath antifreeze mist and getting sick ,and causes the windows to steam up, because i had to undo the hoses , so the car would stop over heating , because i cant afford $700 dollars to get it fixed so now we are also freezing to death along with the breaks not working and the car dying at stop lights and when taking turns or corners which causes the steering and the brakes to go out because ot powered,oh ya did i mention i spent 500.on a water pump and 1000 on new brakes just for the breakes to still not work when i picked it up from the shop. i coul d go on but i will give you a break, i am just really frustrated i cant afford to put any more money into this car becuase something else will just go besided im a single mom working to keep our heads up . i was reading that a judge in california made ford by back these cars because of an incident where a mother and child were almost hurt when her car stalled just like mine does constantly. this car is a death trap and i fear for my daughters safety but it the only thing i got to get her to the sitters and me to work . please help what can be done? thank you sincerely stephenie cole. *ak
