Consumer Description

I HAVE A BATTERY LIGHT THAT KEEPS COMING ON EVEN AFTER REPLACING THE ALTERNATOR TWICE AND BATTERY TWICE. THE LIGHT STILL KEEPS COMING ON AND WILL NOT GO OFF.THERE I AM DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD AND EVERYTHING IS FLASHING AND THEN IT STALLS. I HAVE HAD BOTH BATTERY AND ALTERNATOR CHECKED AND THEY ARE FINE. WIRING HAS BEEN CHECKED AND NOTHING SEEMS TO WORK. ALSO I HAVE REPLACED THE BREAKS ON THE CAR TWICE AND I STILL GET A LOUD GRINDING NOISE WHEN I GO TO STOP. FORD NEEDS TO FIX THESE VEHICLES. I HAVE READ IN MANY FORUMS THAT PEOPLE ARE HAVING THE SAME PROBLEMS WITH THEIRS AND AFTER SPENDING A BUNCH OF MONEY TRYING TO FIX THE PROBLEM IT STILL IS NOT FIXED. I NEED MY VEHICLE TO RUN RIGHT WITHOUT HAVING TO DUMP MONEY INTO IT ALL THE TIME AND I KEEP UP WITH REGULAR MAINTENANCE BUT THIS IS ABOVE AND BEYOND THAT AND THIS IS RIDICULOUS! *TR
