Consumer Description

MY 2000 FORD EXPEDITION CAUGHT ON FIRE ON 6-19-05. MY DAUGHTER & I HAD JUST GOTTEN HOME. 30 MINUTES LATER THE TRUCK CAUGHT ON FIRE. IT WAS JUST SITTING IN THE DRIVEWAY. THANK GOODNESS IT WAS NOT IN THE GARAGE. THE FIRE DEPT CAME TO PUT OUT THE FIRE. MY TRUCK WAS TOTALED. I RECEIVED NOTHING FROM FORD. NOT ONE DIME. 3 YRS LATER I STILL GET NOTICES IN THE MAIL ASKING TO BRING MY TRUCK IN FOR THE RECALL. I NEVER REC'D ONE NOTICE BEFORE THEN. IT IS TOO LATE. I HAVE EMAILED FORD BUT THEY DO NOT CARE. I LOST MY TRUCK. IF IT WASN'T FOR MY INSURANCE THEN I WOULDN'T HAVE A CAR. I AM A SINGLE MOTHER AND BECAUSE OF AN ERROR ON FORDS PART, I HAD TO START OVER. FORD SHOULD HAVE TO BE RESPONSIBLE FOR THIS TRAGIC EVENT. ME & MY DAUGHTER TO THIS DAY ARE SCARED TO DEATH TO PARK IN THE GARAGE OR UP NEAR THE HOUSE. MY DRIVEWAY WAS BURNT. *TR
