Consumer Description

09-10-19 MY 2017 FORD EXPEDITION HAS SHUT DOWN MULTIPLE TIMES WHILE DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD. THE DASHBOARD LIGHTS GO BLACK AND ALL POWER IS LOST, ENGINE, POWER STEERING ETC. I HAD THE VEHICLE TOWED TO THE DEALER ON 09-08-19. WHILE IT WAS BEING TOWED, THE ENGINE COMPARTMENT CAUGHT ON FIRE AND THE TOW TRUCK DRIVER HAD TO PUT OUT THE FIRE WITH AN EXTINGUISHER. FORTUNATELY, I DECIDED TO HAVE THE VEHICLE TOWED AS THIS ENTIRE EXPERIENCE IS A LIFE SAFETY MATTER.
