Consumer Description

MY CAR HAS HAD GALVANIC ACTION ON THE HOOD TWICE IN LESS THEN A YEAR. NO ACCIDENT, BUT THE PAINT BUBBLES AND SPLITS ON THE FRONT EDGE OF THE HOOD IN SEVERAL PLACES. AN ELECTRIC CURRENT APPARENTLY OCCURS BETWEEN THE ALUMINUM HOOD AND THE STEEL BOLTS THAT CONNECT IT TO THE HOOD HINGE MECHANISM. FORD HAS REPAINTED THE HOOD TWICE UNDER WARRANTY, BUT NOW SAY THE PROBLEM WONT BE COVERED AGAIN. THEY HAVE NOT SOLVED THE PROBLEM. AS YOU MAY KNOW, HIS PROBLEM IS CURRENTLY BEING DEPOSED FOR A CLASS ACTION LAWSUIT FOR CARS UP TO 2006. PLEASE CONSIDER FORCING FORD TO RECALL ALL VEHICLES (MINE IS A 2011) AFFECTED BY THIS PROBLEM. *TR
