Consumer Description

REPEATED PROBLEM. THERE HAVE BEEN 5 OCCURRENCES. IT HAS BEEN TO THE DEALERSHIP 3 TIMES. ON EACH OF THESE OCCURRENCES, THE ENGINE HAS STALLED FOR NO APPARENT REASON CAUSING LOSS OF POWER BRAKING AND POWER STEERING. MOST INSTANCES OCCURRED WHILE DRIVING DOWN A SLIGHT DECLINE AT APPROXIMATELY 40-45MPH. ON ALL THREE DEALER ASSESSMENTS (TWO DIFFERENT DEALERSHIPS), THE PROBLEM COULD NOT BE REPRODUCED. THE FIRST TIME THE BASE IDLE WAS ADJUSTED. THE SECOND TIME A RELAY WAS REPLACED. THE THIRD TIME FORD CORPORATE DIRECTED THE DEALERSHIP TO INSTALL AN IDLE AIR CONTROL. I EXPRESSED SAFETLY CONCERNS ABOUT LOSS OF POWER STEERING AND BRAKES TO THE DEALERSHIP. BUT, SINCE THEY WERE NEVER ABLE TO REPRODUCE THE PROBLEM, THEY DON'T CONSIDER IT A CONCERN. THERE IS STILL A GREAT SAFETY CONCERN HERE.*AK
