Consumer Description
I HAVE HAD MY CAR BACK TO FORD BECAUSE WHEN YOU ACCELERATE THE SMELL OF EXHAUST COMES BACK INTO THE CAR. THE LAST TIME I HAD IT THERE THEY SAID THIS IS THE LAST WAY THAT FORD WILL ALLOW THEM TO FIX, WELL IT DID NOT FIX IT. MY GRANDDAUGHTER GETS DEATHLY SICK WITH PROJECTILE VOMITTING WHEN SHE RIDES IN MY CAR. I HAVE MADE THE COMMENT TO THE SERVICE MANAGER THAT IF I PUT A PARAKEET IN MY CAR IT WOULD DIE, I GET NO REPLY. WHEN I DRIVE MY CAR I TRY NOT TO ACCELERATE TO MUCH(HAHA). MY MOTHER DOES NOT LIKE TO RIDE IN MY CAR SHE IS ELDERLY AND SHE DOES NOT NEED TO BE SMELLING THAT. I HAVE DRIVEN FORD EXPLORERS FOREVER AND THIS IS THE FIRST TIME I HAVE EVER HAD PROBLEMS WITH A CAR LIKE THIS. FORD DOES NOT TAKE ME SERIOUS ABOUT THIS MATTER AND WHEN MY KIDS COME TO TOWN WE CAN'T DRIVE MY CAR CAUSE OF MY GRANDDAUGHTER GETTING SO SICK, I DON'T WANT TO HARM HER OR ANYONE ELSE.
