NHTSA Complaint #10283651 — 2002 FORD WINDSTAR

I HAVE HAD A CONTINUAL BRAKE FLUID LEAK ON THIS VEHICLE. IN ADDITION, WHILE DRIVING THE VEHICLE ON 08/06/2009, THE ABS LIGHT AND BRAKE LIGHT SUDDENLY CAME ON, AND THE SPEEDOMETER, ODOMETER, AND AIR CONDITIONING STOPPED WORKING. MY MECHANIC REPLACED THE #10 FUSE, WHICH FIXED THE PROBLEM FOR ONE DAY, THEN THE FUSE BLEW AGAIN. THE FORD TROUBLE CODE C1185 CAME UP ON THE DIAGNOSTIC COMPUTER, AND MY MECHANIC SUGGESTED I REPLACE THE ABS MODULE. LOOKING AT THE SWITCH IN QUESTION, IT IS COVERED IN BRAKE FLUID. I NOW HAVE NO AIR CONDITIONING, SPEEDOMETER, ODOMETER, OR ABS SYSTEM FUNCTIONALITY, ALONG WITH A CHRONIC BRAKE FLUID LEAK. PLEASE INVESTIGATE THIS AND MAKE FORD RECALL EITHER THE DEFECTIVE ABS MODULE, THE BRAKE DEACTIVATION SWITCH, AND THE LEAKY MASTER CYLINDER! HOPEFULLY, ALL THREE OF THESE ITEMS WILL BE INCLUDED IN A RECALL! *TR
