Consumer Description

I WAS DRIVING HOME FROM WORK ONE NIGHT AND AS I WAS DRIVING ALL THE LIGHTS, INSIDE AND OUT, EXCEPT MY BRAKE LIGHTS WENT OUT. I TOOK IT TO A REPAIR PLACE AND THEY TOLD ME I HAVE TO TAKE IT TO A FORD DEALERSHIP BECAUSE IT WAS SOMETHING WRONG WITH MY ENTIRE ELECTRICAL SYSTEM. THIS IS NOT SAFE. I COULD'VE BEEN IN AN ACCIDENT. I HAVE SEARCHED FOR RECALLS ON 2001 FORD FOCUS ZX3 AND HAVE NOT FOUND ANY. I ALSO LOOKED UP HOW MUCH IT WOULD COST TO REPLACE IT ($359). THIS IS NOT A SMALL PROBLEM. PROBLEMS LIKE THIS ARE VERY DANGEROUS.
