Consumer Description

ALL THESE ITEMS HAVE BEEN FIXED BY CAPITOL CITY FORD INDIANAPOLIS AND MACE FORD TERRE HAUTE, IN. I AM STILL HAVING PROBLEMS WITH THE THROTTLE THRUST AND ELECTRICAL PROBLEMS. CURRENTLY MY CAR WILL NOT START. OTHER MECHANICS SAID IT WAS THE STARTER, ITS NOT THE STARTER ITS ELECTRICAL SENSORS. THE VEHICLE SPEEDS UP SOMETIMES WHEN THE CAR IS NOT BEING EXCELERATED. SUSPENSION, HEATER SPEED CONTROL STOP WORKING WHEN THEY WORKED ON THE ELECTRICAL AND THEY REFUSE TO FIX IT. THERE IS MORE. I DON'T HAVE MY DOCUMENTATION, BUT I WILL SUBMIT IT LATER. THE CAR IS AT THE SHOP - BEING LOOKED AND WORKED ON - ITS STILL NOT STARTING - SO WE DON'T HAVE TRANSPORTATION!! I CANT AFFORD ANOTHER HIT FROM FORD WHEN THEY ARE NOT EVEN FIXING THE PROBLEM.
