Consumer Description

I WAS DRIVING DOWN I-70 WEST BOUND AND MY CAR STARTED TO CHANGE LANES WITHOUT MY CONTROL. ALSO SINCE I HAD THE FORD'S RECALL NUMBER 14S05 SERVICE MY GAS MILLAGE HAS ALSO DROPPED BY 3-5 MILES PER GALLON. BEFORE THE RECALL SERVICE I HAD NO ISSUES WITH MY CAR. I HAVE NOTICED MY CAR STEERING IS OVER COMPENSATING PROVIDING A CARNIVAL TYPE RIDE. (CAR SICKNESS TO THOSE WHO RIDE WITH ME AND SOMETIMES MYSELF ALSO.) ASKED THE FORD MOTOR CAR COMPANY ABOUT RESTORING BACK TO THE ORGINAL SETTING AND THEY SAID NO. MY CAR IS NO LONGER SAFE TO USE SINCE I HAD THE 14S05 RECALL SERVICE DONE. *JS
