Consumer Description

WATER LEAK IN THE FRONT WINDSHIELD (FOLLOWING A FEW CONSECUTIVE RAINY DAYS), CAUSING ELECTRICAL FAILURE OF THE DOME LIGHT, WIPERS, RADIO AND GEAR SELECTOR. FORD SERVICE ADVISED REPLACING THE FUSE BOX AND GEM MODULE FOR $1,100. THIS IS MY FAMILY VEHICLE AND I AM DEEPLY CONCERNED THAT THIS MAY CAUSE AN ELECTRICAL FIRE OR UNWNATED ELECTRICAL ACTIVITY WHEN THE CAR IS UNATTENDED. MY CAR IS JUST UNDER 80K MILES. I HAVE DONE SOME RESEARCH AND CAN SEE THAT THERE ARE MANY OTHERS THAT ARE EXPERIENCING SIMILAR PROBLEMS. THIS IS A SAFETY CONCERN THAT SHOULD SHOULD BE ATTENDED TO IMMEDIATELY. I HOPE THIS CAN BE RESOLVED WITHOUT TAKING LEGAL ACTION. *TR
