NHTSA Complaint #10466443 — 2000 FORD EXCURSION

HOW CAN A COMPANY AS FORD CLAIM TO BE AN HONEST AMERICAN CAR COMPANY...THEY SHOULD BE STRIPPED OF THEIR TITLE OF AMERICAN AND GIVEN THEIR OWN IDENTITY OF CORPORATE CAUSE THEY OBVIOUSLY DO NOT CARE ABOUT THE SAFETY OR THEIR OWN INTEGRITY WITH THE UNITED STATES THE PEOPLE AND WE THE PEOPLE ARE JUST DOLLAR SIGNS TO THEM. I HAVE TWO FORDS AND LETS JUST SAY I SHOULD HAVE LEARNED AFTER MY SECOND FOUND ON THE ROAD DEAD VEHICLE TO NOT HAVE BEEN SUCKERED INTO BUYING THE AMERICAN MADE FORD AGAIN. I OWN A 2000 FORD EXCURSION AND HAVE HAD FOUR SPARK PLUGS BLOWN IN THE LAST TWO MONTHS...TWO IN THE LAST WEEK. MY TRUCK BARELY HIT 143,000....WORK TRUCKS, DEPENDABLE FAMILY VEHICLES...NOT SO MUCH. MY TRUCK HAS BEEN TAKEN CARE OF IMMACULANTLY SINCE 2000 AND MANY WHO ARE NOT FAMILIAR WITH BODY DETAILS MISTAKE IT FOR THE NEWER VERSIONS. THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM THAT HAS BEEN IN EXISTENCE SINCE THE TRUCK CAME OUT...SO MUCH A PROBLEM FORD CAME OUT WITH A SPECIAL REPAIR KIT FOR IT THAT WILL ONLY BE WARRANTEED IF YOU GO TO FORD TO FIX IT...SOUNDS LIKE A RACKET TO ME. A RACKET THE GOVERNMENT HAS LOOKED INTO AND APPROVED. I HAVE A FAMILY AND AM TRYING TO GET THROUGH THIS RECESSION BUT SEEM TO BE GOING BANKRUPT NOT ON GAS PRICES FROM OVERSEAS OR INFLATION BUT FROM REPAIRS FOR AN AMERICAN, EXCUSE ME CORPORATE AMERICAN MADE VEHICLE THAT HAS TAKEN ALMOST EVERY PINT OF BLOOD MY FAMILY HAS COLLECTIVELY. AFTER A DECADE OF CONTINUED COMPLAINTS FORD AND THE "SAFETY AGENCY" DOES NOTHING...MY TRUCK SITS IN MY DRIVE WAY BECAUSE I CHOOSE TO BUY SCHOOL CLOTHES FOR MY CHILDREN AND GROCERIES VS. REPAIRING IT AGAIN. BEYOND DISGUSTED ON BEHALF OF THE AMERICAN FORD OWNERS...WHO HAVE WALKED IN MY SHOES. AFTER SO MANY COMPLAINTS HOW CAN THE GOVERNMENT AND CONSUMER AFFAIRS ALLOW THIS CORPORATE COMPANY NOT BE HELD ACCOUNTABLE? *TR
