Consumer Description

MY WIFE OWNS A 2004 FORD EXPLORER XLT WITH WHAT I'VE FOUND TO BE A COMMON PROBLEM. THE OVERDRIVE LIGHT FLASHES ON THE DASH BOARD. IT USUALLY IS A TRANSMISSION PROBLEM THAT IS A VERY EXPENSIVE REPAIR. THIS ISSUE WITH THE EXPLORER HAS BEEN GOING ON FOR OVER A DECADE. I THINK THAT FORD SHOULD BE HELD ACCOUNTABLE. AFTER ALL FORD DID TAKE BAIL OUT MONEY. I THINK THAT A RECALL WOULD BE THE PROPER ACTION FOR THE FORD. MOTOR COMPANY. I AM ONE OF THOUSANDS OF CONSUMERS WHO HAVE BEEN ABANDONED BY ANOTHER BIG COMPANY. *TR
