Consumer Description

I WAS DRIVING ON THE PENNSYLVANIA TURNPIKE IN A HARD RAIN AND THE WINDSHIELD WIPERS STOPPED WORKING. I COULD NOT SEE AND WAS FORCED TO QUICKLY BRAKE AND PULL OFF OF THE ROAD. THIS CAUSED A CAR BEHIND ME TO SWERVE OUT OF CONTROL. FORTUNATELY, THERE WAS NOT ANY PHYSICAL ACCIDENT. I AM VERY CONCERNED ABOUT THE SAFETY OF THIS VEHICLE AND FEEL LIKE I CAN'T DRIVE THE VEHICLE SAFELY IN THE RAIN. SYMPTOMS IN THE RAIN ONLY: WINDSHIELD WIPERS STOP WORKING. RADIO, FAN LIGHTS WORK INTERMITTENTLY. CLICKING NOISES AND FAN RUNNING WHEN VEHICLE IS OFF AND KEY IS NOT IN IGNITION. VERY WELL DOCUMENTED ISSUE ON THE INTERNET. DUE TO LEAKY WINDSHIELD WHICH DAMAGES ELECTRICAL SYSTEM BUT FORD HAS NO RECALL SINCE IT IS "NOT A SAFETY ISSUE". CASE NUMBER FROM FORD CUSTOMER SERVICE - 0382221079. *TR
