WHILE ENGAGING PASSING GEAR AT ROAD SPEEDS, CABIN FILLED WITH EXHAUST FUMES. THIS HAS CONTINUED FROM THAT TIME UNTIL PRESENT. VEHICLE HOW HAS 33000 MILES. VEHICLE HAS BEEN TAKEN TO LOCAL DEALER - [XXX] - ON NUMEROUS OCCASIONS WITH NO RESULTS IN STOPPING THE PROBLEM. THE LAST VISIT AFTER KEEPING OUR VEHICLE FOR 1.5 WEEKS , WE WERE TOLD THAT FORD COULD NOT REPAIR THE PROBLEM AND THAT THE FACTORY WOULD TAKE THE VEHICLE UNDER ADVISEMENT - WHATEVER THAT MEANS. MEANWHILE THE PROBLEM CONTINUES TO WORSEN WHILE EXHAUST FUMES NOW ENTER THE VEHICLE AT ALL STAGES OF OPERATION. WE HAVE BEEN ADVISED BY SEVERAL MECHANICS AND OTHER DEALERS NO TO DRIVE THE VEHICLE WITH OUR GRAND BABIES. THIS HAS BECOME A SERIOUS HEALTH CONCERN FOR OUR FAMILY AS THIS IS MY WIFE'S ONLY MODE OF TRANSPORTATION. SHE FREQUENTLY SUFFERS HEADACHES AFTER TRIPS IN THE VEHICLE TO NEIGHBORING CITIES TO SHOP!! INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6). *TR
