Consumer Description

ECM MODULE DEFECTED ACCORDING TO THE BRAKE SHOP. THE BRAKE SHOP PULLED THE CODES AND ALL THE CODES SAID TO REPLACE THE ECM MODULE. THE REASON I TOOK MY 2003 WINDSTAR TO THE BRAKE SHOP BECAUSE MY BRAKE LIGHT, ON BY DASH, COMES ON AND MY BRAKES MAKES NOISE LIKE THE BRAKES ARE ON BUT THEY ARE NOT. THIS PROBLEM IS INTERMITTENT AND THE BRAKE LIGHT RESETS WHEN THE MINIVAN IS TURNED OFF. THE BRAKE SHOP SAID I HAD EXCELLENT BRAKES AND THE ECM MODULE IS DEFECTED. IT WILL COST 600-800.00 DOLLARS FOR REPAIRS AT MY FORD GARAGE. BUT I UNDERSTAND AS OF NOW, THERE IS NO RECALL FOR THE ECM MODULE, HOWEVER THERE MAYBE A RECALL IN THE NEAR FUTURE. A RECALL WILL BE GREAT FOR ME SAVING ME 600-800.00 DOLLARS. THANKS*TR
