Consumer Description

I GOT THE CAR @42,500 OR SO MILES. THERE WAS A BAD PUDDLE OF WATER AFTER IT RAINED. NEAR THE SMART JUNCTION BOX IS WHERE IT APPEARS TO BE GETTING IN. I HAVE READ ALOT OF COMPLAINTS ONLINE ABOUT THIS ISSUE. FOR SURE A DEFECT THAT FORD SHOULD FIX... AS ANOTHER PERSON ON THIS SITE MENTIONED, I AM SURE THAT MAJOR ELECTRICAL DAMAGE COULD POTENTIALLY TAKE PLACE (I FORCED MYSELF TO COVER THE CAR AT ALL TIMES). THE GAS TANK IS DIFFICULT TO FILL UP ALL THE WAY. I CANNOT SIMPLY PULL THE GAS PUMP "TRIGGER" AND LOCK IT. THE PUMP STOPS, DUE TO THE TRIGGER BEING "TRIPPED" (AS IF THE TANK WAS FULL). SO I HAVE TO HOLD DOWN THE TRIGGER AGAIN (THE FUEL PUMP USUALLY GETS "TRIGGERED" 20 TIMES PER EVERY FILLING OF THE TANK). SUPER ANNOYING AND A KNOWN DEFECT THAT NEEDS A NEW GAS TANK TO BE CORRECTED. HOW DOES FORD NOT CORRECT THIS? *JS
