NHTSA Complaint #10227686 — 2003 FORD EXCURSION

WHILE DRIVING ABOUT 25 MPH, THE ENGINE STALLED AND I LOST STEERING CONTROL. LUCKILY NO OTHER CARS WERE APPROACHING BECAUSE I WAS MAKING A LEFT TURN ON TO A BUSY STREET. VERY DANGEROUS. THE STALL HAS ALSO OCCURRED AT LEAST 5 OTHER TIMES, USUALLY WHEN DECELERATING WHEN COMING TO A STOP LIGHT. TODAY, THE ABS LIGHT CAME ON, THEN I HEARD A CLICK AND ALL THE GAUGES LOST POWER, THE RADIO DISPLAY WENT OUT. I COULD NOT RESTART THE VEHICLE - ONLY HEARD A CLICK SOUND. AFTER WAITING AN HOUR, THE VEHICLE STARTED. BATTERIES HAVE ALREADY BEEN REPLACED BY DEALERSHIP A COUPLE MONTHS AGO. IT WAS IN THE SHOP BECAUSE UNDER AGGRESSIVE ACCELERATION, THE GLOW PLUG LIGHT WOULD COME ON AND THERE WAS NO POWER. SENSOR REPLACED ALONG WITH BATTERIES. PROBLEM OCCURRED AGAIN WHEN DRIVING IT HOME FROM THE SHOP. TALKED TO FORD AND THEY DO NOT SEEM CONCERNED ABOUT POTENTIALLY DANGEROUS PROBLEMS THAT DEALERSHIP CAN NOT FIX. *TR
