NHTSA Complaint #10222118 — 2000 FORD EXPLORER

I RECEIVED NOTIFICATION FROM FORD ON A RECALL FOR THE SPEED CONTROL DEACTIVATION SWITCH (SCDS) IN AUGUST OF 2007. I BROUGHT THE VEHICLE TO ARRINGTON AND BLOUNT (PLACE OF PURCHASE) TO ADDRESS THE RECALL IN EARLY NOVEMBER. THE SWITCH WAS REMOVED FROM THE VEHICLE, THE WIRE TO THE SWITCH WAS TIED TO FIXTURE AND I WAS TOLD TO CALL THE DEALER TO FIND OUT WHEN THE PART WILL BE AVAILABLE FOR THE RECALL... IT HAS BEEN ALMOST 5 MONTHS AND SEVERAL CALLS TO 770-963-1831, ALWAYS SPEAKING TO THE SERVICE DEPT AND STILL NO PART... THE REASON FOR THIS NOTE IS LAST WEEK I CALLED ON MONDAY 3/17/08 AND I WAS TOLD SOME PARTS HAVE ARRIVED AND I SHOULD GET THERE ON TUESDAY MORNING 3/18/08 - WHICH I DID...ONLY TO FIND OUT STILL NO AVAILABLE PART...
