NHTSA Complaint #10194764 — 2007 FORD EXPEDITION

I HAD PURCHASED A 2007 FORD EXPEDITION EL AND HAVE HAD MULTIPLE PROBLEMS WITH BEING ABLE TO GO IN REVERSE WHILE FACING DOWN ON ANY KIND OF GRADE. I ALSO HAVE PROBLEMS WITH THE VEHICLE ACCELARATION WHILE COMING FROM A STOP INTO TRAFFICE. MYSELF ALONG WITH MY TWO SMALL CHILDREN WILL NO LONGER DRIVE THE VEHICLE. WE WERE VERY CLOSE TO BEING HIT TWICE BECAUSE OF THE DEFECT IN THIS FORD VEHICLE. I HAD SUBMITTED FOR LEMON LAW AND SO FAR I HAVE NOT RECEIVED MY ANSWER FROM ARBITRATION. I CAN TELL YOU THAT FORD IS COVERING THIS UP BECAUSE I KNOW OF SERVERAL PERSONS AND BUSINESSES THAT HAVE THE SAME ISSUES AND FORD STATED THAT THERE ARE NO ISSUES. WHILE ON THE PHONE WITH THE FORD REPRESENTATIVE IN THE ARBITRATION THEY ONLY SHOWED A FEW VISITS TO THE DEALERSHIP AND TOLD ME THAT THE ONES THAT I RECEIVED FROM THE DEALERSHIP WERE FALSE. WHAT A CROCK. I WILL MAKE A COMPLAINT EVERYWHERE THAT I CAN BEFORE THIS VEHICLE KILLS SOMEONE. AT THIS POINT I WENT AND BOUGHT ANOTHER VEHICLE AND AM STUCK PAYING FOR TWO NOW THAT THE ONE JUST SITS AND WE REFUSE TO DRIVE IT. MY CHILDREN ARE AFRAID TO EVEN DRIVE IN IT BECAUSE IT ACTUALLY GOES IN FORWARD WHILE IN REVERSE ALSO.
