Consumer Description

1997 LINCOLN TOWN CAR- CRUISE CONTROL DEFECT CAUSING ENGINE FIRES. AFTER FIRST HEARING OF THE RECALL I TOOK MY LINCOLN TO SUBURBAN FORD OF WATERFORD,MI. I WAS TOLD THEY HAD NOT YET RECEIVED THE REPLACEMENT PARTS YET, 2 WEEKS LATER I AGAIN WENT BACK AND WAS TOLD THE VERY SAME THING. I WAITED ANOTHER 2 WEEKS, WENT BACK TO SUBURBAN FORD AND WAS TOLD THIS TIME THAT THE REPLACEMENT PARTS FOR THE RECALL WERE BEING RECALLED AND I WOULD AGAIN HAVE TO COME BACK. I FEEL "THIS FORD DEALER JUST DOES NOT WANT TO COMPLY WITH THE RECALL. IT HAS NOW BEEN ABOUT 9 MONTHS SINCE THE FIRST VISIT AND STILL MY CAR HAS NOT BEEN FIXED. CAN YOU HELP? *TR
