Consumer Description

EVER SINCE I'VE HAD THIS CAR IT HAS BEEB A MONEY PIT. I BOUGHT IT AN WAS NOT AWRE OF ALL OF THE PROPLEMS THIS MODEL WAS HAVING. THE MOTOR MOUNTS WERE REPLACED POWER STEERING PUMP WAS ALSO REPLACED. THE ELCERTICAL WIRING HARNESS CAUGHT FIRE WHILE I WAS DRIVING IT. I AM DISABLED AND IT COULD HAVE GIVEN ME A HEART ATTACK. I COULD NOT HAVE PUSHED THIS CAR OFF THE ROAD. NOW I AM HAVING TROUBLE WITH THE FUEL INJECTORS OR THEIR SENSORS NO ONE HAS BEEN ABVLE TO FIX THIS PROBLEM. IT IS CURRENTLY AT MY MECHANICS GARAGE FOR TWO MONTHS HE HAS CALLLED FORD WITH OUTTOO MUCH HELP. I UNDERSTAND HE HAS REPLCED THE FUEL PUMP AND SENSORS AND IT IS STILL HESITATING WHEN ONE TRIES TO STEP ON THE GAS.*AK
