Consumer Description
"TAKATA RECALL' - I CANNOT COUNT HOW MANY TIMES THIS HAS HAPPENED TO MY VEHICLE. THE BREAKS JUST REFUSES TO FUNCTION AND THE SPEED WOULD NOT DECREASE. I HAVE TAKEN IT TO THE DEALERSHIP SEVERAL TIMES AND THEY CANNOT FIND ANYTHING WRONG WITH THE BREAKS AND THEY ARE NOT DOING ANYTHING ABOUT IT. LAST SUNDAY (SEPTEMBER 8,), MY FAMILY AND I ALMOST DIED ON THE WAY TO CHURCH. THE VEHICLE WOULD NOT STOP!!! IT FINALLY CAME TO A HALT AFTER BEEN STOPPED BY A PAVEMENT. I HAD TO CALL FORD FOR A TOW TRUCK (WHICH I HAD TO PAY FOR BUT THEY GAVE ME A DISCOUNT). MY CAR HAS BEEN WITH THEIR SERVICE DEPARTMENT FOR THREE DAYS NOW. THEY KEEP SAYING THAT THEY CANNOT FIND ANYTHING WRONG WITH IT - THIS WAS EXACTLY WHAT HAPPENED THE FIRST TIME AND 1-2 MONTHS LATER, WE ARE BACK AT THE EXACT SAME SPOT!! THERE ARE SEVERAL PEOPLE ONLINE WITH THE SAME ISSUE. THIS CAR IS NOT SAFE. WHO ELSE IS SUPPOSED TO DIAGNOSE A CAR BUT THE MANUFACTURER?!! IF THE MANUFACTURER CANNOT FIND WHAT IS WRONG WITH IT, THEN THE WORLD IS IN BIG TROUBLE. I THANK GOD FOR ALWAYS PROTECTING MYSELF AND MY FAMILY. MY VEHICLE WAS IN MOTION FROM HIGHWAY TO TURNING TO RED LIGHT. THIS CAR IS NOT SAFE FOR THE ROAD. **ON THE NEXT PAGE: I ANSWERED YES TO "WAS THERE A CRASH" - I DIDN'T CRASH INTO ANOTHER VEHICLE, I CRASHED INTO A PAVEMENT AT CHURCH THAT STOPPED THE CAR.
