Consumer Description

SINCE 2010, WHEN I'VE DRIVEN MY CAR ON THE HIGHWAY THE STOP SAFELY LIGHT COMES ON. IT STOPS RIGHT IN TRAFFIC WITHIN MINUTES, LEAVING ME KNOW TIME TO PULL OFF. I'VE TAKEN THE CAR TO THE DEALER AND HAD ALL KINDS OF WORK COMPLETED FROM BRAKES TO TUNEUP, THEN IT STARTS AGAIN. THIS WEEK WAS THE WORK, JUNE 3, 2012 THE CAR STOPPED ON A MAJOR HIGHWAY IN CHICAGO AND I WAS REALLY SCARED FOR MY LIFE AS OTHER CARS HAD TO PULL ON THEIR BRAKES. I HAVE BEEN TO SEVERAL DEALERS TO TELL ME THAT NOTHING WAS WRONG SINCE 2012, WHILE OTHERS TELL ME ONCE WE FIX THE BRAKES, THE FUEL FILTER, ETC THEN THE LIGHT WILL STAY OFF, I'VE HAD NO SUCH LUCK. I INVESTED A LOT OF MONEY FOR THIS CAR ONLY TO BE SCARED TO DRIVE IT. I'M A MOM OF FOUR CHILDREN AND I HAVE NOT RECEIVED ANY HELP FROM FORD. I KEEP GETTING FIX THIS OR THAT ONLY TO HAVE THE SAME LIGHT COME ON AND BE STOPPED AGAIN, TIME AFTER TIME. *TR
