Consumer Description

CURRENTLY DRIVING MY CAR WITH A BAD CLUTCH ASSEMBLY BECAUSE THE PART IS ON BACK ORDER BECAUSE OF A CUSTOMER SATISFACTION BULLETIN FROM FORD MOTOR COMPANY. DRIVING TODAY AND THE VEHICLE IN FRONT OF ME CAME TO AN ABRUPT STOP. I CAME WITHIN AN INCH OF REAR ENDING THE VEHICLE BECAUSE WHEN I PUT MY BRAKES ON MY CARS THE CLUTCH WOULD NOT DO DOWNSHIFT TO STOP MY CAR. HAD TO STEER TO THE RIGHT ONTO CURB TO AVOID HITTING THE CAR IN FRONT OF ME, CAME WITHIN AN INCH OF HITTING THE CAR. THE DEALER SERVICE DEPARTMENT TOLD ME PUTTING IN A NEW CLUTCH WILL NOT FIX THE PROBLEM BECAUSE THEY ARE PUTTING IN THE SAME DEFECTIVE PART. THIS IS MY SECOND CLUTCH ASSEMBLY WITHIN 7,000 MILES.
