Consumer Description

SINCE NEW, THIS VEHICLE HAS HAD AN ISSUE WITH A LOSS OF POWER WHEN ACCELERATING HARD. THE LATEST INCIDENT, THIS PAST OCTOBER, OCCURRED AT APPROXIMATELY 80000 MILES. PLUGS WERE BAD PREMATURELY AND FOUND THAT IT WAS CAUSED BY WATER BUILD UP IN A CAC FOR THE TURBO CHARGERS AND THERE WAS A TSB. I WAS PASSING A CAR AND LOST POWER ALMOST CREATING AN ACCIDENT. THIS TIME, FORTUNATELY, A LIGHT STAYED ON SO THEY COULD DIAGNOSE THE ISSUE. THE DEALER DID AN UPDATE PER THE TSB BUT FORD REFUSED TO PAY FOR THE UPDATE DUE TO THE MILES EVEN THOUGH THIS ISSUE HAS OCCURRED NUMEROUS TIMES BEFORE THE WARRANTY HAD EXPIRED. I AM DISAPPOINTED THAT THE NHTSA DID NOT MAKE THE RECALL MANDATORY IN THEIR PREVIOUS INVESTIGATION AS I BELIEVE WATER BEING INJECTED INTO AN ENGINE CAUSING A POWER LOSS AT A TIME POWER IS CALLED UPON IS DANGEROUS. *TR
