Consumer Description

I WILL BE DRIVING AND EITHER THE AC WILL BE ON OR THE DVD SYSTEM WILL BE IN USE AND THE CONSOL TURNS BLACK AND THE LIGHTS GO OFF ON THE DASHBOARD AND THE ENGINE REVS AND SOMETIMES IT SAYS CHECK CHARGING SYSTEM. THIS HAPPENS WHILE I AM DRIVING ON THE FREEWAY. THE LIGHTS WILL TURN BACK ON IN THE DASHBOARD AND THEN THE AIRBAG LIGHT IS BLINKING. IT IS VERY CORNERING AS I DRIVE MY CHILDREN IN THIS CAR. I AM AFRAID IT IS GOING TO HAPPEN AND I WILL BE UNABLE TO STOP AND EITHER CAUSE AN ACCIDENT OR HURT MY CHILDREN AND MYSELF BECAUSE OF THE ELECTRICAL SYSTEM JUST SHUTTING DOWN. THIS SHOULD BE A RECALL AND SHOULD BE FIXED BY FORD. IT IS A SAFETY ISSUE. THIS HAS STARTED HAPPENING WITH MORE REGULARITY SINCE 1/2016
