NHTSA Complaint #11233854 — 2011 FORD EXPLORER

"2011 FORD EXPLORER CARBON MONOXIDE POISONING CONCERNS RECALL" ACCIDENT OCCURRED ON MAY 14, 2019 AT HOUSTON, TEXAS I SLEPT OFF WHILE DRIVING AND RAN INTO ANOTHER VEHICLE WHO STOPPED AT A STOP LIGHT WAITING FOR THE GREEN LIGHT TO TURN ON. I WAS NOT ABLE TO STOP AT THE STOP LIGHT BECAUSE I SLEPT OFF BECAUSE OF CARBON MONOXIDE POISONING. I HAD NO REASON TO EXPERIENCE SUCH. I WAS ALSO, CONSTANTLY SMELLING FUEL COMING INTO MY 2011 FORD EXPLORER. THE CAR I RAN INTO AND MINE WERE SERIOUSLY DAMAGED. THE POLICE CAME AND WROTE A REPORT ON THE ACCIDENT. ON TWO DIFFERENT MORE OCCASIONS, SAME THINGS HAPPENED TO ME, BUT LUCKILY I DID NOT RUN INTO ANY OTHER CAR OR DAMAGE MY CAR. IT WAS AT THIS JUNCTURE THAT I STARTED TALKING WITH FRIENDS AND FAMILY MEMBERS ABOUT MY REPEATED SAD EXPERIENCE DRIVING MY 2011 FORD EXPLORER AND WAS INFORMED BY ONE OF MY FAMILY MEMBERS THAT THERE WAS A NATIONWIDE RECALL ON FORD EXPLORER BECAUSE OF CARBON MONOXIDE POISONING CONCERNS. I DIRECTLY VERIFIED AND DISCOVERED IT WAS TRUE. I THEN WASTED NOT TIME TO CALL, MAC HAIK FORD MOTOR COMPANY, HOUSTON, TEXAS AND COMPLAINED ABOUT MY EXPERIENCE DRIVING MY 2011 FORD EXPLORER AND QUESTION WHY I WAS NOT ON TIME, OFFICIALLY INFORMED ABOUT THE 2011 FORD EXPLORER CARBON MONOXIDE POISONING CONCERNS RECALL. THEY APOLOGIZED AND ASKED ME TO BRING IN MY VEHICLE TO BE FIXED FREE OF CHARGES. I TOOK MY VEHICLE TO MAC HAIK, WHERE THE FIXED ONLY THE RECALLS AND NOT THE OVER FIVE THOUSAND DOLLARS BODY AND INTERNAL DAMAGES MY VEHICLE SUSTAINED. MY QUESTION NOW IS HOW CAN I GET FORD MOTOR COMPANY TO FIX MY DAMAGED VEHICLE AND THE OTHER VEHICLE I RAN INTO BECAUSE OF THE EFFECTS OF CARBON MONOXIDE POISONING WHICH I SUFFERED WHILE DRIVING MY 2011 FORD EXPLORER, FREE OF CHARGES? *TT *TR CONSUMER STATED CAR WAS REPAIRED, FREE OF CHARGE.
