Consumer Description

SINCE PURCHASING THIS CAR, ITS BEEN NOTHING BUT PROBLEMS. THE PROBLEMS I'VE EXPERIENCED AREN'T ANY DIFFERENT FROM ALL THE OTHER LS OWNERS. COIL PACKS GOING BAD, THE A/C BLOWING HOT AIR, THE CAR GOING INTO FAIL SAFE MODE WHILE ON THE FREEWAY, THE SMELL OF GASOLINE INSIDE THE CAR. IT LOOKS LIKE THESE ISSUES HAVE BEEN GOING ON SINCE FORD STARTED PRODUCING THE CAR. NOW WONDER THEY NEEDED BAILOUT MONEY. I GOT IN MY CAR THIS MORNING AND IT WENT INTO FAIL SAFE MODE 3X'S BEFORE I COULD GET OUT OF THE DRIVE WAY! ALL OF THESE ISSUES WITH THIS CAR DATING AS FAR BACK AS 2001, AND NO RECALLS, C'MON MAN. MY TAX DOLLARS WENT TO HELP OUT THIS COMPANY!!!! [XXX]SHAME!!!! THIS IS MY FIRST AND LAST TIME BUYING A FORD! INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6). *TR
