Consumer Description

1ST INCIDENT HAPPENED WHILE DRIVING AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS. ABS AND BRAKE LIGHT ILLUMINATED UNTIL CAR WAS TURNED OFF. LIGHTS NOW COME ON RANDOMLY. I TOOK MY VEHICLE TO A FORD DEALERSHIP ON AUG. 31 2002 FOR RECALL ON FRONT AND REAR AXLES. THEY INSTALLED SHACKLES ON SUSPENSION AND SAID THAT EVERYTHING WAS FINE. AFTER I CAME HOME WITH VEHICLE, I NOTICED A CLUNKING SOUND COMING FROM THE R/F WHEEL AREA AND MY OVERDRIVE OFF DASH LIGHT STARTS FLASHING RANDOMLY UNTIL CAR IS TURNED OFF. CONCERNING THE ABS ISSUE, I TOOK MY VEHICLE TO AN INDEPENDENT GARAGE AND THEY TOLD ME I NEEDED TO REPLACE THE ABS CONTROL MODULE, THEN HE TOLD ME THAT THEY DID THE EXACT SAME REPAIR ON ANOTHER 02' WINDSTAR EARLIER THAT WEEK AND THE REPAIR WOULD COST $700-$800 DOLLARS. COINCIDENCE???? *TR
