Consumer Description
BEGAN FEELING VERY SICK ON FRIDAY JANUARY 5TH, CAR HAD BAD EXHAUST SMELL. HEADACHE, DIZZINESS, NAUSEA, THIS CONTINUED OVER THE WEEKEND SO MUCH SO THAT I DID NOT DRIVE ANYWHERE SUNDAY FROM 1:00 ON OR AT ALL ON MONDAY. WOKE UP TUESDAY FEELING OK AND DROVE MY CAR TO WORK, WHILE DRIVING THE 4 MILES ON THE FWY TO GET THERE MY CAR STARTED SMOKING PROFUSELY FROM THE EXHAUST PIPE. I IMMEDIATELY TOOK IT TO FORD, IT IS STILL THERE. THEY ARE REFUSING TO PAY FOR REPAIRS, THEY SAY TURBO ENGINE AND ENGINE NEED REPAIR/REPLACEMENT. COULD THIS HAVE TO DO WITH THE EXHAUST ISSUES I SEE PEOPLE KEEP HAVING? NEVER ONCE DID THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT COME ON SINCE I'VE OWNED THE VEHICLE (2 YRS, 2 MONTHS) COULD THERE REALLY BE THAT MUCH WRONG WITH THE CAR WITHOUT EVEN A HINT THERE WAS AN ISSUE AND NO CHECK ENGINE LIGHT?
