NHTSA Complaint #10713892 — 2007 FORD EXPEDITION

I PURCHASED A 2007 EXPEDITION A COUPLE OF YEARS AGO WITH 67000 MILES. I'VE BEEN HAVING SEVERAL ISSUES WITH IT BUT I FIGURED IT WAS JUST BECAUSE IT WAS A USED VEHICLE. I MAINTAIN MY CAR VERY WELL GETTING ALL OF THE SERVICE IT NEEDS DONE. ON 4/12/15 I WAS IN THE CAR WITH MY TWO DAUGHTERS AND IT JUST STOPPED IN THE MIDDLE OF THE ROAD WITHOUT WARNING. THIS WAS AN EXTREMELY DANGEROUS SITUATION AND WE ALL WE VERY AFRAID. LUCKILY THE CAR BEHIND US WAS NOT TOO CLOSE AND WAS ABLE TO PREVENT A VERY SERIOUS ACCIDENT. I AM BEING TOLD THAT THE PROBLEM IS RELATED TO THE FUEL PUMP. I FILED A COMPLAINT WITH FORD ON 4/15/15. ALL I WAS GIVEN WAS AN APOLOGY AND TOLD THAT THERE WAS NOTHING THAT THEY COULD DO AT THIS TIME. LITTLE DID I KNOW THAT THERE WOULD BE A MAJOR RECALL JUST YESTERDAY, 4/29, FOR THE SAME ISSUE WITH THEIR NEWER VEHICLES. I ALSO SEE AN OUTSTANDING NUMBER OF COMPLAINTS ABOUT THIS WITH THE SAME VERSION OF MY 2007 VEHICLE. I GUESS THAT FORD IS WAITING FOR SOMEONE TO DIE BEFORE THEY RECALL THIS ISSUE. I AM EXTREMELY UPSET ABOUT THIS AND WILL NOT STOP OVER TURNING OPTIONS UNTIL FORD DOES SOMETHING TO FIT MY VEHICLE. *TR
