Consumer Description

WATER FIRST NOTICED LEAKING INSIDE THE VEHICLE ON 5/2013 AND WAS -TSB PERFORMED ON SEALS AT COWL PANEL. CAR LEAK WAS NOT FIXED AND STARTED LEAKING AGAIN AT SAME SIGHT, THIS TIME WITH EXTENSIVE MOLD SPORE DAMAGE WHICH CAN BE A SIGNIFICANT HEALTH RISK. THIS CAR HAS HAD MULTIPLE(AT LEAST 5 TIMES)CHECK ENGINE LIGHT COMING ON,SEVERAL TIMES THE CAR HAS JUST STALLED WHILE DRIVING AND SO FAR 2 BATTERIES AND 2 ALTERNATORS HAVE BEEN PUT IN TO THIS CAR AND IT MAKES YOU WONDER IF WATER HAS BEEN LEAKING SINCE PURCHASE INTO THE ELECTRICAL SYSTEM OF THIS CAR. THIS HAS BEEN A KNOWN PROBLEM AT FORD SINCE 2007 BUT A RECALL WAS NEVER ISSUED. I AM NOT SURE WHAT IT TAKES TO ISSUE A RECALL BUT I WOULD HATE IT TO BE A RESPIRATORY ILLNESS OR A CRASH THAT WOULD BRING IT TO THIS. *TR
