Consumer Description

THE ENGINE COOLING FAN CAUGHT ON FIRE ALMOST EXACTLY AS DESCRIBED IN RECALL 97S66, EXCEPT THE FAN WASN'T STOPPED BY SNOW. LUCKILY WHEN WE SMELLED THE SMOKE WE STOPPED THE CAR, TURNED IT OFF AND HAD IT TOWED TO THE DEALER. THIS IS A POTENTIALLY FATAL SITUATION THAT AFFECTS ALL 1995 TAURUS OWNERS. WHEN I CALLED FORD TO REPORT THE PROBLEM THEY JUST BLEW ME OFF SAYING THAT MY VIN WAS NOT IN THE RANGE OF VINS FOR THAT RECALL.
