Consumer Description

PURCHASED 2014 FORD EXPLORER JULY 20, 2014 - JULY 26,2014 - I WAS PULLING AWAY FROM DRIVE THRU PHARMACY AND MY DASH LIGHTS WENT BLACK. TOOK MY VEHICLE INTO SERVICE THE NEXT MORNING - THEY COULD NOT FIND ANYTHING WRONG. MY VEHICLE HAS BEEN BACK 6 MORE TIMES. ONCE AGAIN FOR LOOSING ALL DASH LIGHTS DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD - SINCE THEN, MY LIGHTING IN MY VEHICLE DOES NOT LIGHT UP AS IT USE TO. SOMETIMES MY DASH LIGHTS COME ON WHEN OPENING THE DRIVER DOOR, SOMETIMES THEY DO NOT - SOMETIMES MY LCD SCREEN WILL LIGHT UP, SOMETIMES IT DOES NOT. THE DEALERSHIP HAS REPLACED THE INSTRUMENT CLUSTER ONCE, BUT I FEEL THERE IS STILL AN ISSUE. IT ALL MY DASH LIGHTS LIT UP FOR THE FIRST 6 DAYS OF OWNING THE VEHICLE, WHY WOULD THEY NOT ALL LIGHT UP NOW AFTER THE INCIDENT OF LOSING THE DASH LIGHTS??? I HAVE ASKED FOR A REPLACEMENT VEHICLE - AS AFTER SPEAKING WITH AN ATTORNEY I HAVE A LEMON LAW CLAIM, A SAFETY CLAIM, AND A WARRANTY CLAIM. IF MY VEHICLE DOES NOT GET REPLACED OR SOME MONEY BACK FROM FORD - AS I HAVE DROVE MY CAR FOR 13 FULL DAYS OUT OF A MONTH - I WILL BE TAKING THIS TO COURT AS I CAN ONLY SEE FURTHER ISSUES DOWN THE ROAD. *TR
