Consumer Description

WHILE DRIVING DOWN AN INTERSTATE AT APPROXIMATELY 65 MPH, THE ELECTRICAL SYSTEM IN MY 2005 FORD TAURUS SHUT OFF. ALL OF THE GAUGES WENT DEAD. THE CAR DID NOT STALL, BUT I SLOWLY STARTED DECELERATING THE CAR. FIVE SECONDS LATER, THE SYSTEM SUDDENLY RESTARTED LIKE NOTHING HAD HAPPENED. I CALLED THE LOCAL FORD DEALER WHERE THE CAR WAS PURCHASED AND THEY STATED THAT IF THEY CAN'T REPRODUCE THE INCIDENT, THERE'S NOTHING THEY CAN DO ABOUT IT. THE CAR HAS APPROXIMATELY 102,000 MILES ON IT. *TR
