Consumer Description

I WAS DRIVING TO WORK IN THE MORNING AND MY ESCAPE STALLED WHILE GOING THROUGH A FOUR WAY INTERSECTION. I THOUGHT THAT THIS MAY HAVE BEEN AN ISOLATED INCIDENT SO I CONTINUED DRIVING. I THEN NOTICED WHILE I WAS IN TRAFFIC THAT THE ENGINE WOULD SHUTTER AND NOT IDLE NORMALLY. IT STALLED AGAIN THE NEXT DAY. I TOOK IT TO THE FORD DEALERSHIP IN THE CITY WHERE I LIVE WITH THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT ON, THEY TESTED IT AND THEN THE LIGHT RESET ITSELF?? THEY TOOK IT ON A TEST DRIVE AND NOTHING HAPPENED WITH THEM WHILE THEY WERE DRIVING SO THEY SAID THAT THERE WAS NOTHING THAT THEY COULD DO. MY CAR IS SHUTTING OFF WHILE I AM IN TRAFIC AND DRIVING, THIS IS A SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUE. I HAVE BEEN BLESSED THAT THE BRAKES WORK ON THE CARS THAT DRIVE AROUND ME OR ELSE I WOULD HAVE BEEN IN A SERIOUS ACCIDENT ON MORE THAN ONE OCCASION THIS WEEK!!! PLEASE RECALL THESE CARS AND GET THEM FIXED BEFORE SOMEONE DIES!!!!
