Consumer Description

THE ORIGINAL SPEEDOMETER FAILED AT 27719 MILES. THE REPLACEMENT SPEEDOMETER NOW HAS 28333 MILES. ON 03 NOVEMBER I REQUESTED A SPEEDOMETER BE PUT ON MY AUTO. I WAS NOT REQUESTING THAT THIS WORK BE DONE UNDER THE WARRANTY. I WAS TOLD THAT FORD MOTOR CO HAS A HOLD ON ALL ORDERS FOR SPEEDOMETERS FOR FORD TARUS AND MERKERY SABLE. THE SERVICE MANAGER RELATED THAT THERE IS A PROBLEM WITH THESE SPEEDOMETERS AND FORD WAS ASSESSING THE PROBLEM AND A DESISION WOULD BE MADE SHORTLY AS TO THE METHOD OF CORRECTING THE PROBLEM. THE DEALER TOOK MY NAME, PHONE NUMBER AND ADDED IT TO AN ALREADY LONG LIST OF VEHICLES WITH THE SAME PROBLEM. APPAIRENTLY THERE ARE A LARGE NUMBER OF THESE VEHICLES OPERATING ON THE HIGHWAY WITH NON- WORKING SPEEDOMENTERS.
