NHTSA Complaint #10299816 — 2003 FORD EXPEDITION

I WAS DRIVING DOWN THE FREEWAY WHEN MY EXPEDITION MADE A NOISE, THE INSIDE DASH LIGHTS FLICKERED AND THE TRANSMISSION STARTED ACTING UP. I PULLED OVER AT A HOTEL. I CALLED A TOW TRUCK WHO CAME TO PICK IT UP A FEW DAYS LATER. WHEN HE STARTED IT THE WIRING HARNESS CAUGHT UNFIRE. THE ENTIRE WIRING BURNED UP ON THE LIFT SIDE OF THE VEHICLE. THE MECHANIC TOLD US WE WERE LUCK TO HAVE STOPPED. IF WE CONTINUED DOWN THE HIGHWAY MY FAMILY AND I WOULD HAVE BEEN IN GREAT DANGER. I BELIEVE THE FIRE WAS THE FAULT OF BAD WIRING. I CHECK THE RECALL SITES AND MY VEHILCE WAS NOT PART OF THE FAULTY WIRING RECALL. *TR
