Consumer Description

WHILE DRIVING, VEHICLE CHIMED THEN "STOP SAFELY NOW" CAME ON IN THE DISPLAY. VEHICLE TURNED OFF WHILE DRIVING AND I WAS UNABLE TO TURN BACK ON. ABOUT 5 MINUTES LATER I WAS ABLE TO GET THE VEHICLE TO TURN BACK ON. ON 10/7/13 WHILE NEGOTIATING A LEFT TURN, THE VEHICLE DID THIS AGAIN. I WAS ABLE TO COMPLETE THE TURN WITH THE SPEED I WAS MAKING THE TURN WITH AND PULLED OVER. IT TOOK ABOUT 7 MINUTES BEFORE I COULD GET THE VEHICLE TO TURN BACK ON. I TOOK THE VEHICLE TO THE DEALER THE SAME DAY. TODAY, 10/8/13 SOUTH BAY FORD IN HAWTHORNE, CA CALLED ME AND SAID THAT FORD IS AWARE OF THE ISSUE BUT TO JUST COME PICK UP MY VEHICLE. I FEEL THIS IS A MAJOR SAFETY ISSUE THAT FORD NEEDS TO RESOLVE ASAP! *TR
