Consumer Description

CAR BEGAN LOSING POWER UPHILL, AND EVEN PUSHING THE GAS PEDAL TO THE FLOOR DID NOT HELP. HIGH PRESSURE FUEL PUMP WAS REPLACED AT A FORD DEALERSHIP, BUT THE PROBLEM CONTINUED, AND GOT WORSE. EVENTUALLY HAD TO BE TOWED TO ANOTHER DEALERSHIP, WHERE THEY FIXED THE PROBLEM ENOUGH TO GET HOME, ALTHOUGH HILLS REMAINED AN ISSUE (CRUISE CONTROL WAS SET TO 70, AND EVEN THE SMALLEST HILL WOULD CAUSE THE CAR TO SLOW TO AROUND 40-45 MPH). CAR CURRENTLY IS SITTING IN MY DRIVEWAY BECAUSE I AM AFRAID TO DRIVE IT. IT MIGHT STALL OUT IN TRAFFIC.
