Consumer Description

I WAS DRIVING MY 2000 F-250 7.8 DIESE AT APPROX. 5 MPH. IT WAS SNOWING OUTSIDE. I HAD MY WIPERS ON. THE WIPERS BECAME STUCK AND THEN MY TRUCK BEGAN TO FILL WITH SMOKE. I ATTEMPTED TO TURN THE WIPERS OFFS. THE WIPERS WOULD NOT SHUT OFF. I TURNED THE TRUCK AND THEN RESTARTED IT. THE WIPERS STOPPED FOR A MINUTE THEN CONTINUED TO FASTER. I ALSO SAW FLAMES COMING FROM THE HOOD AREA. MY WIPERS NO LONGER FUNCTION AND I THERE IS STRONG ODOR OF BURNT ELECTRICAL WIRING IN THE TRUCK. I CALLED FORD ABOUT THIS PROBLEM AND THEY SAID MY TRUCK WAS NOT PART OF THE RECALL AND THEY WERE NOT RESPONSIBLE.*AK
