Consumer Description

WHILE DRIVING VEHICLE THROUGH A RATHER BUSY INTERSECTION THE CHECK ENGINE WARNING LIGHT CAME ON. WITHIN 5 TO 10 SECONDS LATER MY CAR STALLED IN THE MIDDLE OF TRAFFIC AND WOULD NOT RESTART. I CONTACTED FORD MOTOR COMPANY ABOUT THIS PROBLEM AND THEY STATED THAT THEY WERE UNAWARE OF ANY PROBLEMS OF THIS TYPE, BUT SAID THAT THEY WOULD HAVE THEIR ENGINEERING DEPARTMENT LOOK INTO THIS PROBLEM. I ASKED FOR WRITTEN CONFIRMATION AND THEY SAID THEY CAN'T "DO THAT". I DON'T BELIEVE THAT MY PROBLEM WAS AN ISOLATED CASE.
