Consumer Description
We saw on the news our Ford Expedition could be recalled for "under hood fires." We checked our Ford App and it shows two recall issues. One for the "under hood fires" and one related to a "wiper arm loose." We have not received any recall notices from Ford but we received these notices on our Ford App. When we called Ford, we did not get anyone to help us. They just told us to park our car outside our garage away from the house. We called our local Ford Dealer and they did not know anything about the recall and repeated the statement to park outside the garage until they receive information on how to resolve the problem. We take good care of our vehicles so we don't like having our car sitting outside where it is subject to weather conditions. However, we are told the car could catch fire even when it is not turned on so we don't want to risk having our home burn down. Also, we are concerned of a safety issue of driving the car that it may catch fire. We purchased this vehicle to pull a small camper and camping season is starting. If we use this to pull our camper and the car can catch fire when not in use, we are concerned about the safety of having the car in the campground close to our camper. Ford needs to provide a resolution to this safety issue immediately. A customer should not feel they are at a risk of physical harm or harm to their home or camper. This should be a top priority to find a resolution to this problem. We should not have to park our car outside and we should not have to worry about driving the car with risk of a fire or risk of a fire in a campground by our camper. Please request Ford prioritize this safety issue an find a resolution immediately. We did not receive any recall letters for either of the recall issues - fire under the hood or wiper problem. Please require Ford to solve both issues but the most important is the "under hood" fire issue.
