Consumer Description

I FIRST REPORTED THIS TO FORD AND TO THE NHTSA AFTER A TRIP IN AUGUST 1999 WHEN MY CAR STALLED NUMEROUS TIMES DURING A MOTOR TRIP IN IN VERY HOT WHETHER. IT WAS A MIRACLE THAT WE ESCAPED INJURY. LAST WEEK I TOWED MY SMALL BOAT WITH THE CAR IN MILD WEATHER AND AFTER ABOUT 75 MILES THE CAR STALLED AGAIN AND WE WERE AGAIN LUCKY TO AVOID AN ACCIDENT. I READ AN ARTICLE IN THE AUGUST 2001 NEWSPAPER THAT FORD HAD AGREED TO REPLACE THE FAULTY IGNITION PART IN CARS WHERE IT HAD FAILED BUT FORD DENIED THIS WHEN I CALLED THEM. WHAT IS GOING ON? I AM AFRAID TO DRIVE THIS CAR IN HOT WEATHER OR TO TOW MY BOAT WITH IT OR TO USE IT IN CONDITIONS WHICH WILL CAUSE HIGH ENGINE HEAT. IF I DON'T GET HELP SOON I MUST GET RID OF MY CAR.*AK
