Consumer Description

OUR 2000 FORD EXPEDITION HAS AN ELECTRICAL PROBLEM THAT WAS DESCRIBED IN FORD SPECIAL NOTICE 15773. WHEN IT RAINS, WATER LEAKS INTO THE GEM/CJB AND CAUSES THE ELECTRICAL SYSTEM TO SHORT OUT. THIS RESULTS IN BLOWERS RUNNING WHILE THE KEY IS NOT IN THE IGNITION, THE CAR TO STALL OUT WHILE IN USE, AND THE CAR TO NOT START AT ALL AT SOMETIMES. SINCE IT IS AN ELECTRICAL PROBLEM, IT MAY ALSO LEAD TO VEHICLE FIRE. THIS OCCURS EVERY TIME THERE IS RAIN/SNOW. THE DEALERSHIP HAS LOOKED AT THE PROBLEM BEFORE, BUT HAS NOT BEEN ABLE TO FIND THE PROBLEM. I DISCOVERED THE PROBLEM SEARCHING ON THE INTERNET AND FINDING MANY OTHER OWNERS WITH THE SAME PROBLEMS. FINALLY, ONE POST REFERENCED FORD SPECIAL NOTICE 15773 WHICH DESCRIBES EXACTLY WHAT IS HAPPENING TO OUR VEHICLE. THIS NEEDS TO BE RECALLED BEFORE FIRES AND WORSE OCCUR. *TR
